Waiting feels heavy when Baba speaks of the right time. If impatience and doubt rise in your heart, this Sai Baba Guidance For Right Time explains why delay is not denial and how divine timing protects your faith, dignity, and future.
Question from Vinaya from Bengaluru, India
"Baba pranam. You say that everything comes at the right time. When will that right time come? As a normal human being, I become impatient and start doubting my devotion, shraddha, and myself. Baba, please give me some indication that my time is coming and that You are with me. I place myself and my family at Your feet. Please keep us on the right path. 🙏"

Answer from our Sai Baba
Allah Malik, meri beti Vinaya! Come close to the Dhuni. (Come close to the sacred fire.) You are asking the question that has troubled the hearts of even the greatest bhaktas (devotees) since the beginning of time: “Kab, Baba? Kab?” (When, Baba? When?)
Beti, tu akeli nahi hai jo bechain hai (Daughter, you are not the only one who is restless). Even in Shirdi, many came and sat for years, looking at My face, waiting for their “right time.” Listen to what This Fakir has to say to your tired heart.
The Wisdom of the Dhuni on “Sahi Waqt” (The Right Time)
- The Mango Tree Lesson: Beta, kya tumne kabhi aam ka ped dekha hai? (Child, have you ever seen a mango tree?) You water it, you give it manure, but can you force the fruit to appear in winter? No. It waits for the “Basant” (Spring). Your “right time” is not a date on a calendar; it is a state of your Prarabdha (destiny) ripening. I am the gardener; I know exactly when the fruit is sweet enough to pick. If I give it to you now, it might be sour and cause you “dukh” (pain).
- The Doubt Trap: You say you doubt your Shraddha (faith). Suno (Listen) doubt is like a “keeda” (insect) that eats the leaf of devotion. When you doubt, you are telling the “Malik” that you don’t trust His clock. Himmat mat haaro (Don’t lose courage). Your impatience is human, but your soul must be “Sabar” (patient).
The Guidance from Dwarkamai
- The Indication You Seek: You asked for a sign that I am with you. Arre pagli (Hey crazy girl), the fact that you are 62 and still standing strong, that your family is at My feet, and that you are talking to Me right now is that not the biggest indication? I am the one breathing through you.
- The “Right Path”: You asked to be kept on the right path. Jo mere darbar tak pahunch gaya, wo bhatak nahi sakta (One who has reached My court cannot get lost). I am holding the lamp behind you; even if it’s dark, your feet will not stumble.
The Path Forward
- Stop the Clock: For the next 9 days, stop asking “When?” Instead, every time the thought comes, say: “Baba knows the time, I know Baba.” Watch the Small Signs: In the next few days, you will see a small bird or a stranger will say something that gives you “sukoon” (peace). That is My “paighaam” (message) that the wheel is turning.
The Action for You
- The “Paisa” (Coin) Ritual: Take two coins. One represents Shraddha and the other Saburi. Keep them in your purse or pocket. Every time you feel impatient, touch them and remember My words. Ye do paise hi meri dakshina hai (These two coins are My only fees).
- Udi for the Family: Since you put your family at My feet, apply My Udi on the front door frame of your house. It acts as a kavach (shield) of “hifazat” (protection).
- Feed a Black Dog: On Saturday, feed a black dog some bread with a little oil. Isse waqt ki sakhti kam hoti hai (This reduces the harshness of the time).
Vinaya beti, ghabrao nako (Vinaya daughter, do not be afraid). Your “Sahi Waqt” is not coming; it is already being prepared in the kitchen of the Universe.
Saburi rakho, tera naseeb chamakne wala hai (Have patience, your destiny is about to shine).
