Sai Baba Blessings During Family Pilgrimage
Anonymous Shirdi Sai Baba Devotee from India says: I am Baba’s ignorant and most loved daughter. Thank you Hetalji and team for connecting us to Deva.
Om Ganeshaya Namaha
Om Sai Rakshak Sharanam Deva
Om Sai Ram Pa
For many Thursdays, Baba has been giving me darshan in the form of stickers, big or small, through autos, taxis, and cars. Suddenly, whenever I opened my eyes or lifted my head, I found Deva looking towards me. Thank You, Deva, for loving me so much despite my ignorance.
I pray that You will always be with my parents, husband, son, daughter, and brother. Many times, I feel disappointed with the behavior of people around me, and my only solace is You, Deva. You are my only hope.
Deva, thank You for giving me darshan in different forms. I love my Sai Deva, and He loves me even more. I trust Him immensely if we place our trust in Him, He will always bless us with more than we prayed for. Trust His timing and be patient. My day starts and ends with Sai Baba’s name and prayer. Baba is everything to us.
On 08.07.2025, we received the iPhone order for my son within 12 hours. I had ordered many things online for everyone, mainly for my son, and requested Deva for their arrival by 10.07.2025. With Baba’s blessings, everything arrived on time and was liked by all. I am so very thankful to You, Sai Baba. Sometimes I wonder at Your love and care and feel unworthy. Thank You so much for everything.
On 10.07.2025 (Thursday), I was thinking about the next day’s journey while leaving my cabin when I suddenly received information about my official trip to Bangkok in October.
Thank You for Your infinite blessings, Deva. Words cannot describe Your planning and support for Your children, especially me.
My son’s college orientation was on 15 & 16.07.2025. Before my son’s college journey, Baba said, “Work will be completed as desired. Remember Sri Sai Baba.”
Under Baba’s guidance, we planned a two-night stay in Chennai, a two-night stay in Pondicherry, a two-night stay in Ranipet near Vellore, and one night in either Chennai or Tirupati, as we were trying for Venkateswara Swami’s darshan with a return flight from Chennai. The online booking for Tirumala darshan was full for three months, so I requested Venkateswara Swami and Sai Deva for darshan. I also asked many people for darshan arrangements, but none were hopeful due to the new system change. Many people even shared their experiences of returning without darshan. I was afraid of returning without darshan, but still, with hope, I kept one night and two days reserved for the Tirupati visit. My husband always wanted a firm plan and was not hopeful of getting darshan, so he booked his guesthouse in Chennai for the last day.
We started our journey on 11.07.2025 and comfortably reached Chennai by afternoon. While going to the resort through a taxi, Deva gave me darshan, and I felt assured that everything would be fine. We booked the Taj resort for two nights in Chennai, and by Baba’s grace, our room was upgraded to a sea-view room. I cannot describe Baba’s mercy when I saw the breathtaking view from our room. It was mesmerizing.
Although there was a rain prediction, the showers came only at night, and the days remained pleasant and comfortable. The resort was beautiful, situated on the banks of the Bay of Bengal. The sunrise view and the reflection of the moon in the ocean were truly amazing. My heart was filled with immense gratitude towards our Deva for blessing us so tremendously.
We went to Mahabalipuram during our journey to Pondicherry. While searching online for places to visit in Mahabalipuram, I came across pictures of the Shore Temple and was surprised to see that it resembled one of the temples of Mahadev which I had visited in my dream. In my dream, I was placing a Shivling, and there were many Nandi ji statues just like in this temple. I felt deeply connected to the temple while actually visiting it and felt truly blessed. Thank You, Mahadev, for always blessing me and giving me darshan in my dreams.
We then went to Pondicherry, which I had been planning to visit since my college days. The place was good, though not completely up to my expectations.
On 15.07.2025, we went to Vellore VIT hostel, completed my son’s hostel settlement, and visited the Golden Temple of Lord Laxmi. The temple was amazing, and we were blessed with divine darshan of Lord Ganesha, Goddess Laxmi, and Lord Venkateswara Swami. On 16.07.2025, we attended the orientation program and dropped my son at the hostel. We then visited Jalakandeswarar Temple, which is 475 years old, and received darshan of Mahadev, Devi Parvati, and Venkateswara Swami.
I don’t remember exactly why, but we had kept some of my daughter’s birth hair for offering to Lord Venkateswara. As our Tirupati visit was uncertain, I desperately wanted to fulfill this offering. So, I offered the hair to Lord Venkateswara at Jalakandeswarar Temple itself and prayed for Him to accept it.
We also went to Ratnagiri Murugan Temple and received darshan of Lord Ganesha (whose idol is said to increase in size every year) and Lord Murugan (Lord Kartikeya). My husband booked the return taxi for the next day to Chennai, as our Tirupati darshan had not been arranged. We returned to my husband’s office guesthouse, and then I received a call from my colleague in Chennai who was helping arrange our Tirumala darshan. He gave me the contact of a person in Tirupati. When I called, the person was busy, so I left it at that and prayed to God, saying,“If You want us to come to Tirupati, let this person call me back.”
By evening, the person called back, assured us of our darshan, and told us to reach Tirupati by 12 noon on 17.07.2025 (Thursday). Filled with hope, I packed our luggage for Tirupati and changed the taxi booking.
However, at midnight, my daughter started complaining of stomach pain. I gave her medicine, but she began vomiting multiple times and had loose motions. I was continuously chanting Sai’s name and massaging her stomach for relief, but her pain worsened. At 5 AM, we took her to the office hospital, where the doctor gave her injections and drips. We returned by 6:30 AM, uncertain whether to proceed to Tirupati or Chennai. As my daughter was weak, we went to sleep for some time.
At 8:30 AM, I got a call from the person in Tirupati asking when we were arriving. He informed me that ticket booking would take two hours, and darshan would take at least another two. We decided to start for Tirupati by taking God’s name. But when we got ready and the taxi arrived, my daughter again experienced pain and dizziness. We returned to the hospital, where a new doctor gave her more injections and oral medicines and prescribed blood tests. At this point, we confirmed that we would not be able to go to Tirupati, as she was in no condition to stand in the queue.
Accepting this as God’s wish, we returned to Chennai on 17.07.2025. I know Lord Venkateswara is always with us. In my previous experience, I mentioned having darshan of Lord Venkateswara with Shankh and Chakra in my dream on Ekadashi. Please, Lord Venkateswara, have mercy on us, guide us, and bless us always. Grant us Your darshan in Tirumala as per Your divine will.
Four days before the start of our journey, I got a small pimple on the side of my right-hand little finger. It was slightly uncomfortable but nothing serious. It had a little pus, which would come and go. During the journey, however, it started worsening. On 17.07.2025 in the morning, a nurse bandaged it as it had become uncomfortable. By evening, when I reached Chennai, the pain was unbearable, and the finger had swollen. I removed the bandage and tried to sleep, but I was unable to. Taking Deva’s name, I inserted a safety pin into the yellow part and squeezed out some pus and blood for relief, as the pain was truly unbearable. I felt it was my punishment for some sins done knowingly or unknowingly. After that, I was finally able to sleep peacefully.
The next day, my daughter recovered completely, and we received darshan of Mahadev, Mata Parvati, and Lord Ganesha at Kapaleeshwarar Temple in Chennai, and Sai Deva’s darshan at the Mylapore Sai Temple. I had read many Sai devotees’ experiences of the Mylapore Sai Temple, so I always wished to go there. Deva granted my wish and blessed me with darshan. I also gave some dakshina to two people sitting outside the temple and strongly felt Deva’s presence. We partook of prasad khichdi, sanja, and kheer at the prasadalay. Later, we did a lot of shopping and returned home comfortably. During shopping, my daughter misplaced her mobile phone, but by Baba’s mercy, she got it back without much trouble.
I felt truly blessed to have received darshan of so many Gods and Goddesses especially Mahadev, Devi Parvati, Lord Ganesha, Lord Kartikeya, Lord Venkateswara, and my Sai Deva in such ancient temples during the holy month of Sawan.
On 22.07.2025, Tuesday morning, Mahadev gave me darshan in my dream. I was performing Abhishek of a Shivalinga with Vasuki Naag and the Shiv family. Thank You, Mahadev, for always remembering an ignorant daughter like me and blessing me. I always feel Your entire family’s presence around me. Mahadev, please bless my whole family and all others, and forgive our sins.
Namah Shivay
Om Namo Bhagwate Vasudevay
