<hr>Sai sister <a href="mailto:ponnekanti_madhavi@yahoo.com">Madhavi</a> ji says: Dear sai devotees Thank you for giving opportunity for sharing my experiences with our beloved sai. 
 
Before i start writing my experience with sai first i want to tell you some thing I experienced with sai. Two days before start writing my experience with baba, i used to read sai devotees experience and as well as i have lot of experiences with him actually i need to write a book about my life but some now i can't because some things we can only discuss with our soul and heart that means only with baba because he is our soul and heart, so we can share only with him. 
 
We used to think we are sharing every thing to him but we are not because nobody is here, he is the only one. He will know every thing what we are doing what we are thinking and our past present, future. For me it’s not enough to talk or share about my baba because he is with me, in me and every part of our body. Ok now I am sharing my first experience. 
 
Actually here also i definitely need to mention our sai is with us in every janma (birth), he didn't enter our life's suddenly but we found him and we recognised him in our heart in some particular point of time. Upto that even he is with us we don't have ability to find him in our hearts, so for me it’s around 2003 first time he blessed me and showered his grace on me to find him in my heart. 
 
From my childhood we used to belive god. My dad always used to tell stories about ramayan, mahabarat, etc and by his grace he blessed me a kind heart and good thinking and from childhood i saw many ups and downs and lot of other sufferings. 
 
In 2003 baba came out from my heart though my sister-in-law. She belives baba. Before that i don't know about baba. We used to pray lord venkateswara, so she told me about baba and she is having a small book about baba and i took the book from her. My brother and sister-in-law have done love marriage. First my mom didn't agree by baba's grace at last she agreed and they got married.

<hr>Sai sister <a href="mailto:nithyanob@gmail.com">Nithya</a> ji says: Thank you for giving me a forum to share the presence of baba in my life -- luv u baba:-) Be with me always - protect all of us...Om Sai Ram 
 
I dont know where to start but i want to share my experience. I have not been a devotee to sai baba but i really don’t know how he came to my life from when. Somewhere in the month of april a lady gave me a sai baba book while i was travelling in the train she distributed to many ladies i just got it and kept in the bag. I didnt open it. i just went home and gave to my mom and told her to keep it with her. After ten to fifteen days i was totally depressed about some of personal issue -trust me didnt like anything in the world i just go to work come home lie down in the bed and cry, cry and i will sleep. This was happening. One weekend suddenly i felt like want to go to shirdi. Immediately i started surfing net, trying to gather information from people, travel agents how to go there but nothing turned out. I went to shop something for me and found a baba idol and got that to my home. I kept baba near my bed in a stool and cry all the night "Why me always in tears?" I prayed all the god to give me a solution but no one is helping me!!...After a chain of weeks somewhere in the end of may i asked my mom on the sai baba book i gave her and started reading a couple of pages and found a <a href="http://www.shirdisaibabastories.org/2009/07/nine-thursdays-sai-baba-vrat-faqs.html" target="_blank"> Sai Baba Nine Weeks Vratham </a> ". I started my vrat by June 3 2010 and i have seen a page in FaceBook on sai baba blessings. They will send us a message everyday i have subscribed. I started receiving it and to my surprise whenever I am down i get a message from them "Why fear when im here." This is baba's first miracle which gave me strength. Then i keep enquiring about going to shirdi to all the people i know.

In all cases, experiences were posted in English language. Sometimes if i received experiences in Hindi or chat language they were edited and posted. But this experience of Sai brother Anil ji from Canada is in PDF format narrating his first trip to Shirdi in Hindi language. I was really touched deep within to read the elaborated experience. I felt that, the essence and feeling which arouse while reading the experience in Hindi will loose the same if translated in English. So i am sharing in the same manner in which i received. I regret inconvenience caused to non-hindi readers, but i promise to bring out more experiences in English here. Sorry for this one!!! 
<hr>Below is mail from Sai brother <a href="mailto:anilranjitkar@gmail.com">Anil</a> ji in which he writes: Sai Ram Hetal ji, 
 
By BABA Blessing, suddenly I found your blog and very much pleased to read devotees experience in your blog. You are doing great service.

Sai Baba Helped Me Fufill My Vow - Sai Devotee Archana

<hr>Archana ji says: Dear Hetal, I have been a reader of your blog for quite some time now and I really thank you for your service. May Baba bless you with choicest of blessings. I had posted one of my experiences here last year. This time I have an experience that has left me completely speechless. 
 
In the month of February this year I was going through your website and while reading some experience I made a mental vow to Baba that until I earn my own money and buy a beautiful orange color shawl for him I will not buy anything for myself. I have no clue how that thought came into my mind but it just happened and a promise is a promise. So many festivals and occasions took place but I stuck to my vow and didn’t buy anything for myself. What surprised me about my own decision is that I am in USA and I am on a dependent visa. Anyone who is familiar with how things work in USA would know that you cant work unless you have a H1 visa or a EAD or a GREEN CARD. I have neither and so does my husband. 
 
I told my husband about my vow and he said that since I had made up my mind I might have to wait for another 2 or 3 years to buy something for myself because job was out of question for me and the green card isn’t on cards for another 3 years atleast. I just told him BABA WILL TAKE CARE.

My Recent And First Trip To Shirdi - Sai Devotee Neeraja

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_D7WJge6Rb1A/SEdSLJ7fgaI/AAAAAAAABLA/EtlIdS3_Rlw/s1600/dancing+sai.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="300" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_D7WJge6Rb1A/SEdSLJ7fgaI/AAAAAAAABLA/EtlIdS3_Rlw/s400/dancing+sai.jpg" width="400" /></a></div>Sai sister <a href="mailto:neerajalankar@yahoo.com">Neeraja</a> ji from USA says: Sairam Hetal ji, Let me thank you for doing this amazing seva to BABA! May BABA always shower you with His abundant Love and Care! After knowing BABA in 2004, we were waiting for Him to call us. But BABA called only me not my hubby or kids!!! That too after 21 years, I am visting India on June 20th, 2010. 
 
My going to India in itself is a miracle from Baba! We are 4 kids for our parents, 2 brothers and 2 sisters. After my pappa passed away and went to Baba (again in that incident too Baba showed me an amazing miracle) will share later on,... my brothers were to take my mom to India but somehow they both dropped and my mom asked me to accompany her and I asked my husband, Sainath, and he said go.(He still is surprised as to why he said go to me as if I am going to Kentucky or somewhere here) Of all my brothers and sister, Baba gave me the golden chance of taking my mom by myself alone to India and to Shirdi too without my husband or kids! Isn't this itself His Leela dear sis? 
 
Before going to Shirdi, Baba showed me amazing leelas in Hyderabad! Srivalli my Baba group friend and sister, took me to one uncle's house and there one devotee gave me such a huge, very huge painting of Baba sitting with His legs folded ( the ...ever sweet pose of Baba)! That pic is soooo huge I almost cried seeing Him! Uncle said Baba wants to come to me and that I am blessed! What else can I ask for na? Absolutely nothing! and that same day, my sister in law gave me one of a kind Baba sayings "Sai Saaram" (in Telugu), which she found in Shirdi long time back and she said they are not making anymore, and I was soo happy that she was giving me that valuable piece, and told her why not you give to your sons and daughters in law, and Hetal ji, she said...neeraja, Baba wants to come to you! I jumped with happiness and kissed Baba and took Him! These 2 amazing leelas Baba showed me!!!! LOVE YOU Thandri!!!! 
 
And then after trying to go to Shirdi so many times with my cousin, he kept on postponing, and I knew Baba knew too! So I waited and on 13th July, 2010 Tuesday we went on a bus to Shirdi with one of my aunt too. I had with me one Baba's dress which Parul didi made for me and sent to me in Hyderabad. I was very happy to take Baba's dress with me! It was like a dream come true for me as I never came back to India after 21 yrs, and this was the first time and that too without my husband Sainath or my kids too! Parul told me to meet some guy in PRO the next day on 14th July and to give him Baba's dress. We went in the morning (14th July) to Temple, I was so thrilled to be stepping inside His Temple I got tears as He gave me this chance na! When I met the person, he asked me when I wanted Baba to wear my dress? I said how about tomorrow as it is Thursday...to which he said no way, tomorrow is too early, there are so many trustees, blah blah.... I was almost in tears, but I asked him how about next day on Friday? again he said no way, they are all booked this week, its possible only next week on Thursday! I was crying, and told him I wont be here and requested him but there was no use, and he took the packet from my hands too. Crying, came back to hotel and again called Parul didi, and she said to go back to Temple and take back the packet from that guy and give it to some other guy who might help. Hetal ji, in my mind I was asking Baba to wear my dress on Thursday itself! which was tomorrow! So again we went to Temple and went to another person's office where the assistant was there and he also said the same thing to me that no way Baba can wear my dress tomorrow! I looked around and saw Baba calendar, and prayed again to Him in my mind, please, please Baba wear my dress tomorrow! and to my surprise I saw on that calendar, tomorrow was July 15th, Thursday and also my pappa's birthday! wow I jumped with joy as Baba made me to come to Him for my pappas birthday!!!! So I got energy from that and asked to talk to the main person and to call him on phone and the asst called and concerned official came on and I asked him requesting him to agree as tomorrow is also my pappas birthday and that Baba is with him too. He kept quiet for few minutes and then he said OK, done! What I asked, he said, OK didi, Baba will wear your dress tomorrow! I looked at Baba and thanked Him in my mind and again asked Mr. K when which time of the day Baba will wear my dress, he said Dhoop Ararti! Hetal ji, this was His first miracle! I brought His dress on Wednesday, and He was wearing it on Thursday, on my Pappa's birthday!!! 
 
Next day, being Thursday, I was up early to attend Kakad arati, it was amazing!!! and during Dhoop Arati, we were inside, and Baba looked sooo sweet and soo loving in my dress, wanted to hug Him and kiss Him too! I was thanmayathvamga singing His arati, all of a sudden something moved in front of Baba! I looked and was surprised to see a small black cat just walking towards Baba.....HE was BABA! I knew, and showed to the lady next to me saying to her, dheko, billi ayaee, and this billi is Baba! to which that lady didnt believe me and said kya, oh billi Baba kyse hote? well, I knew in my heart, it was Baba who came in the form of cat during His Arati, just to see how many of His devotees will see the cat as Him ! The cat just disappeared after nearing Baba!!! I was once again crying and singing Arati thinking Baba is so loving to those who believe in Him! Baba knew that I see Him in animals too! 
 
During Pallaki seva, oh God, it was soooo thrilling and amazing I started taping it all, I felt the whole town of Shirdi was there to witness! My heart was beating soo loud and felt my hair stood up as if I got goosebumps...So many thousands of people everywhere! I was standing near Chawadi and the separating gate was close to me and beside me so many were sitting down and after them so much more people were standing too like in thousands... all of a sudden, I saw one black dog near me, he was rubbing his body to my saree, I looked down to see a huge black dog wagging his tail, he came to me God knows from where as there were so many people all around! This dog was BABA! I knew! Thats why he came to me! Others were saying remove that dog, I said to them no way, this is Baba! They laughed at me, I did not care and bent down and started rubbing him and telling him Baba I know its YOU, I love YOU soo much! One devotee talked to the guard sitting down outside the gate, nikaldo ! o kutha ko...the guard said after looking at me and the dog, as I was petting him, rahne do, kutha kuchnahi karre, I was happy but that man was so unhappy and started screaming loudly, so I bent down to the dog and told him Baba, I know its YOU, see some are not believing in YOU, so please go now and patted him, he just listened to me and started walking on all women who were sitting and went among those standing and disappeared! Hetal ji, Baba came in the form of 2 animals on Thursday, July 15th! And that dog did not stop near anyone, but came straight to me!!!!LOVE YOU BABA! 
 
Before going to hotel, I saw a board saying Sai Satya Vrata Puja at 8 am! my heart jumped again! Ran to see where it was but it was locked, of course as it was so late in the night...So on the last day, on Friday, I wanted to attend Sai Satya Vrata Puja as that was the last day of my trip! But I did not have any tickets too! So after Kakad Arati, went back to hotel and slept on chair for few mins and again by 7.15 went to Temple to see many devotees already started lining and going inside a hall! They all had receipts! I didnt know where to get one so I asked one last devotee where to get the ticket, he told me to run to shani gate and there I can find, so I ran to other side, and saw where they were giving tickets, as I reached that place one devotee was coming away with 1 ticket in his hands, I went and asked how much for Sai Satya Vrata Puja, he said 100Rs, I gave him and again he says take one for Abhishek too, I said what Abhishek, he said,..just take, I know you will enjoy so give me 101 Rs, He was like forcing me so i was giving him money and just then one another devotee comes to the window and asks how much for Sai Satya Vrata Puja, he told the mam, 100Rs, but did not mention 101 Rs Abhishek to him! I noticed that, but I took the 2 tickets and ran and was happy they did not start...the puja went very smoothly, and when I saw around me many had only one ticket with them where as I had 2 ! Well, after the Puja they gave us coconut and prasadam and all were saying Sairam at the door and going away...I was surprised as I had another ticket and did not know where to go now so I asked the door guy, where do I go now, he looked at my ticket and said, run, up the stairs, the puja must have started already! so I ran, so fast, up the stairs to a big hall which is open, and many devotees were sitting in front of a sweet looking BABA!!! I never even dreamed of coming to HIM! Next to BABA was a pujari sitting on a stool and waiting....I felt he was waiting for me! I gave them my ticket and they gave me a thalli, I went and sat down next to a woman and we started the Abhishek of Baba! I never knew I was coming to BABA'S ABHISHEK! The woman next to me saw my prasadam and asked me when did I do Satya Vrata Puja! I told her 1 hr back downstairs, she was surprised and told me she never knew about that, and she said to me that I am blessed, as Baba gave me this golden chance of doing both pujas and I looked around me, to my surprise, there were no one from downstairs Sai Satya Vrata Puja, here as no one had any prasadam with them except ME! See BABA was sooooo sweet to me again na! I got tears as that woman told me I was blessed by BABA! 
 
After Abhishek I gave to everyone Sai Satya Vrata Puja prasadam, so many devotees came with open hands to take prasadam! My lil heart was filled with immense joy Hetal ji! Typing all this to you again brings tears in my eyes! BABA IS REALLY SWEET, VERY VERY SWEET AND LOVING! to those who believe in HIM, am I right Hetal ji? 
 
I did not feel like leaving Shirdi at all! 
 
So sorry for taking so much of your valuable time, as I was writing, it went on and on. Forgive me! 
 
Sairam

<hr /><blockquote>Sympathy And Experience</blockquote>Anonymous Sai sister says: Dear Hetalji, Thank you for the communication you so kindly forward to us about our beloved BABA and the beautiful bhajan links. May your life be blessed with all your desires. This is my first time that i am sharing my life experience so kindly forgive me for all mistakes and share my experience with other devotees if you approve of my article. Thank you Hetiaji. I would like to share my experience with sai devotees. 
 
Greetings to all beloved BABA'S children. I'd like to share my experience which has left me in AWE and full of BLISS. I came into BABA'S fold last year in August when a dear friend gifted me <a href="http://www.shirdisaibabastories.org/2009/07/nine-thursdays-sai-baba-vrat-faqs.html" target="_blank"> Shri Saibaba's Vrat book. </a> After reading the book I vowed to also keep the vrat as i was also experiencing financial problems. The first Thursday after that i kept vrat and have been keeping the vrat continuously since. For the past year there are lots of problems in my life and i felt with BABA'S blessings i would benefit. My problems have not been resolved yet and my life gets more and more difficult each day but i kept on fasting and praying that BABA will bless me one day. I totally believe in Shrada and Saburi and ihave surrendered all my problems at the Lotus Feet of my beloved BABA. Still living with more problems i oneday responded to BABA ANSWERS YOUR PRAYERS on the internet. I asked BABA to kindly bless me as he has blessed millions of his children. This was in the 2nd week of June 2010. The answer i received was come to DWARKAMAI. Although i am in financial crises i asked my husband for permission on 18 June and he encouraged me to go. With BABA'S blessing i received my visas and i came to India on 24th June. As we all know if BABA does not will it we cannot ever reach Shirdi his DIVINE abode. I traveled alone to India for my BABA'S darshan. On Friday morning 25 June was my first beautiful darshan of my life which i will never forget. I was so overwhelmed i could'nt believe that i was actually in Shirdi. 
 
I then went to DWARKAMAI and also got beautiful darshan from BABA and the pujari at DWARKAMAI advised me to give him all my japa books and he will put them in the dhuni. I always wrote japa when i felt tensed (OM SAI RAM). In the evening i came back to Samadhi Mandir and as i followed the queue i was pushed to the extreme right and wow to my delight i was able to place my hands on BABA'S Samadhi. This was definitely BABA guiding to bless me HIMSELF. Saturday evening i again went to DWARKAMAI and it was arti time. To my amazement i managed to get a place to sit right in front of the monitors. I enjoyed the beautiful darshan and arti at DWARKAMAI to my hearts content. It was the most divine experience. I am still today basking in the glory of my first visit to Shirdi. BABA welcomed me in his divine abode and i will be eternally grateful. I am still living with all adversities and it sometimes gets very unbearable but I am patiently waiting for BABA to BLESS me. I have faith that one day soon BABA will bless me. Sunday 27 June i flew to Banglore to SATHYA SAI BABA'S ashram in Prashanti Nilayam. I again was welcomed by BABAin his divine abode. Enjoyed beautiful darshan from SATHYA SAI BABA also which i will leave for next time. OM SAI RAM OM SAI RAM OM SAI RAM. Jai sai ram. 
<hr /><blockquote>Saibaba's Prompt Reply And His Reaction Towards Sai Satcharitra</blockquote>Sai brother Venkataraman.S ji from India says: Hi, I would like to share my experience with saibaba. Please dont share my MAIL ID. Also kindly inform me when this experience is posted in your blog. 
 
Ganesh, omsairam 
 
I first ask forgiveness to saibaba if there is any mistake in my post here. I have completed my engineering and i got selected in the campus interview in a very big IT company. 
 
But later that company didnt call me for 2 years. I tried in other companies but due to the recession all went in vain. I prayed saibaba. I requested saibaba's advise through a site called <a href="http://www.yoursaibaba.com/" target="_blank">www.yoursaibaba.com</a>. In that it came like you will get good things in the month of august. After that in the month of june i started reading <a href="http://www.shirdisaibabastories.org/2009/11/all-about-sacred-text-shri-sai.html" target="_blank">Shri Sai Satcharitra</a>. I finished that within 7 days i.e. on thursday. The very next day I got a mail from the company which recruited me in the campus asking me whether I am ready to join them. I confirmed them that I will join them. Then exactly at the month of august I got the exact joining date from the company. This was the exact month which was told by saibaba to me. Thus i remembered his words "To keep my words I sacrifice my life". Saibaba is great and with his blessing I am going to join my dream company tomorrow. I also need his blessing in my training too. 
 
"Bow to srisai, peace be to all"

<hr /><blockquote>Saibaba Appearing On I-phone</blockquote>Sai sister <a href="mailto:siri112@gmail.com">Sri</a> ji from USA says: Hetalji, This is the first time I am writing to you. I live in Maryland,USA. Though I knew Sai from my childhood I am drawn closely to Baba recently. I am putting down two of my experiences with sai here. 
<ul><li> Experience 1 
 
This incident happened on 22 Aug 2010. Due to some family problems prevailing from the past one and a half year I was very frustrated on that Sunday and quarreled with everyone. Even I was angry with sai too. In my laptop I have a beautiful sai's samadhi mandir photo. In frustration I removed sai's picture from my desktop. For almost one hour I was browsing the internet. Suddenly I felt that I should update my facebook profile picture. We had our most recent pictures in my husbands iPhone. So immediately I started searching the recent photos. 
 
To my surprise as I scrolled the 2 pictures I took the day before the incident I saw a beautiful sai picture in white. That photo was not there the day before. Immediately I rushed to my husband and asked whether he has taken the picture. He said no. Here in US it is not common to see sai picture everywhere. My 2 1/2 year old daughter uses the iPhone to see some nursery rhymes but she is not capable of taking the picture that perfect. Immediately I felt that it is sai leela as if Baba is telling me that even if you abandon me I will be there with you always. </li>
</ul><ul><li> Experience 2 
 
Then on the immediate Friday I was watching Babas live darshan from shirdi. Om Sri sainaathaaya namaha this song was playing in samadhi mandir that time. After seeing baba for a few seconds I closed the browser. Though I manually closed the browser the song played continuously for 4-5 minutes. I was really stunned. It never happened like that before. How can the audio play when the browser has been closed. Sai's leelas cannot be logically explained in terms of science.</li>
</ul>OM SRI SAINATHAAYA NAMAHA

Very happy to see that many people are getting blessed by BABA and they do realize these blessings. I think, with BABA's blessings only one can have such an eye to SEE the blessings. 
 
I would like to share 2 events happened to me just today! 
 
(1) I was returning to home after being away for 3 weeks. I went to Atlanta to see my son and his family. My other son lives in Sierra Vista. He gave us ride from Tucson to Sierra Vista and since it was late night we reached home he asked us to stay overnight at his apartment. And in the morning I was driving to my apartment when this event happened. 
 
On the way I saw a white Cadillac with the number plate last 3 letters were SVK, which to me were very significant. As now a days people use short forms to coin words, SVK to me sounded SEVAK. BABA says in Sai Satcharitra that I am a sevak of my true devotee. 
 
(2) Just in front of my apartment another car was parked in our parking lot. On the rear number plate along with the number there was a logo printed "I love being a caregiver"and on the front number plate (facing my apartment) was a plate written "Jesus Loves you". 
 
I was overwhelmed with emotions to SEE BABA near me all the time. 
 
And the third event I would believe to be a SPECIAL BLESSING. 
 
My grand daughter in Atlanta is too much attached to me. She is just 4 years old. Even we were still at the airport in Atlanta yesterday and they were heading home after dropping us at the airport, she made my son to call me and she talked me saying Meemaa, I miss you. Why are you at the airport? Are you coming home tonight? 
 
Upon reaching home she again asked to call and talk to me. So my son said now Meemaa is on the flight she can not take your call. So she said, Can I write an e-mail? So my son helped her with that at the computer. But the text she typed by herself in her own words. 
Meemaa, i miss you. 
Come back soon. 
I love you. 
Pari. 
 
I have not accessed the computer since I came home. And I am checking my e-mails. I read her e-mail as well as I read <a href="http://www.shirdisaibabaexperiences.org/2010/09/shirdi-sai-baba-bestows-boon-sai.html" target="_blank">Sai Devotee Dixita ji's</a> e-mail which I could not resist replying to it. And while I am narrating here BABA's being around me, my cell phone rang. My son on the other side tells me I just called you to say that e-mail from Pari was written by PARI on her insistence as she misses you so much. I have always felt that Pari, to me and to my family, is BABA's blessing. So this call means a lot to me showing BABA's love for me. 
 
Jai Sai Ram.

<hr /><blockquote>Sai Baba Showers His Blessings In The Form Of Coin</blockquote>Sai sister <a href="mailto:garimakalra89@yahoo.com">Garima ji from India says: </a> This year in the month of july i went to shirdi for the first time with my friends and cousins. We stayed there for complete week. I was really very very happy after putting my first step on the land of shirdi. First time when i entered samadhi mandir for baba's darshan i really got tears in my eyes as i felt lucky that i was in front of baba. 
 
Dwarkamai in shirdi where baba used to go for rest is kept open at night. We all used to go there and sit. One day many people were there and i was sitting there with my brother. We both were talking to baba as all of us do. Suddenly i had tears in my eyes so my brother asked me what happened. I told him that i am tensed because i dont know how i can keep my mom happy as she is facing lots of problems. He was making me understand that dont worry you are in shirdi and baba is always with you and your mom. There was a deep silence in dwarkamai suddenly both of us heard a noise of a coin falling from somewhere. No body moved but both of us started looking here and there. All those who have gone to shirdi must be knowing that there is one tulsi plant in dwarkamai. From there a one rupee coin fell. The strange thing was that no one was sitting near that plant. It was far from all of us. But still from there a coin fell. My brother got up and went to see there he found a one rupee coin. We both were really surprised. When we saw that coin properly then we saw a shadow of Baba's swaroop on that coin we were really amazed to see that. Then my brother told me it is a baba's blessing for you and in a way he is saying he will remove all tensions from your mom's life. I really thanked baba for this. 
 
Om sai shirdi sai jai jai sai. Baba ko mera koti koti pranam. Om sai ram ji may baba bless all and always remain with us. - 
<hr /><blockquote>Sai Baba Holding My Hand</blockquote>Sai sister <a href="mailto:dpar098@gmail.com">Dimple</a> ji from USA says: After reading few experiences from other devotees, I thought I would share my experience as well. 
 
Few weeks back, I had early morning dream in which first I thought I was holding Baba's hand and requesting him to come with me and then while holding his right hand with my left hand we went to some sea shore. Later, I realized that I was not holding Baba's hand, he was holding my hand and took me somewhere (not aware of the place) and ask me not to worry about anything. 
 
I make Prasad and take it to Baba's temple on Thursdays. I make it in big quantity so other devotees can eat it too. One Thursday, I was feeling so sleepy and did not get up till late, by that time it was already 2 pm. I felt like Baba was calling my name from my leaving room asking me to get up and start cooking or else I will be too late. Few times, I just ignored thinking that I am just thinking this while sleeping. After a while, Baba was loudly calling my name and it stopped when I finally woke up. 
 
Since that day, I feel him around me most of the time and as funny as even when I was getting hair cut he was sitting on waiting area bench. 
 
May Baba bless everyone
