The Lost Gems of Sai Baba - The Sleeping Chamber of "The Three"

 

One who has a Guru, has everything. What else does he need. We are lucky to have numerous Gurus guiding us. Also its our special luck that we have the fortune of reading Sai Satcharitra, which i consider equal to Gita if not above it. What great jewels of wisdom are shining from it. My eyes are moist writing this as I recall the great incidents mentioned. The love that flows. 

But 2 individuals I believe have been luckier - 1) Mhalasapati & 2) Tatya

Mhalsapati and Tatya had the great luck of sleeping with Baba at night in the Dwarkamai. Tatya, after his parents had slept would come to Dwarkamai to join Mhalsapati and Baba. The trio would then lay down with their heads facing North, East and West, in such a way that their feet touched each other's. The three used to chat about various topics till late night. When one would start falling asleep other would wake him up. If Tatya slept, Baba would shake him, or if Mhalasapati started feeling drowsy, Baba would push him our pull his leg. 

The trio slept in the Dwarkamai for fourteen years, until passing away of Tatya's father. The responsibility of running the house fell on Tatya and he had to start sleeping at his house, leaving his "Mama" and Mhalasapati. 

I envy both Tatya and Mhalsapati as they would have got to hear so many gems from Baba. 14 years is a long period. Even if we hear one good tale from Baba we feel blessed and elated, so imagine 14 years!!

Just imagine those nights! Baba must be taking the duo to Stars every night. He must be taking them to different Galaxies, where they must be Bathing in the divine light, waterfalls of Amrit! Even Hemadpant seems to show this envy while discussing this exclusive Sleep Chamber.

Hope if Baba becomes more generous and we can come to know of the great discussions the trio must have had.
