Damu Anna Kasar’s Speculations And Amra-Leela (Miracle of the Mangoes) Preliminary We begin this Chapter with a bow with all our eight limbs to Sai Baba, Who is an ocean of mercy, the God incarnate, the Para-Brahma and the great Yogeshwara (Lord of Yoga). Victory be unto Sai Baba Who is the crest-jewel of the Saints, the home of all auspicious things, our Atmaram (Dear Self) and the able refuge of His devotees. We prostrate ourselves before Him, Who has attained the aim and end of life. Sai Baba is always full of mercy; What is wanted on our part is wholehearted devotion to Him. When a devotee has got firm faith and devotion, his wishes are soon fulfilled. When the desire arose in Hemadpant’s mind to write the life and Leelas of Sai Baba, Baba immediately got it written by him. When the order “to keep memos” was given, Hemadpant was inspired, his intellect acquired the strength and he had the boldness to undertake and finish the work. He was not, he says, qualified to write the work, but the gracious blessings of Baba enabled him to complete the undertaking and thus you have this Satcharitra which is a Somakant jewel; from this jewel, nectar in the form of Sai Leelas oozes out for the readers to drink to their hearts’ content. Whenever a devotee has complete and wholehearted devotion to Sai Baba, all his calamities and dangers are warded off and his welfare is attended to by Baba. The story of Damodar Savalaram Resane of Ahmednagar, alias Damu Anna, illustrating the above statement is given below. Damu Anna The readers may remember that this gentleman was mentioned in the 6th Chapter with regards to the celebration of the Rama-Navami festival in Shirdi. He went to Shirdi around the year 1895, when the Rama-Navami celebration began and from that time on he provided an ornamental flag for the festival for several years. He also fed the poor who came there for the festival. His Speculations: Cotton A broker who knew Damu Anna wrote to him that they should work in partnership on a cotton-speculation business, which would bring them about two hundred thousand rupees as profit. (Damu Anna says, in his statement made around the year 1936 to Mr. B.V.Narasimha Swami, that the proposal to speculate in cotton was from a broker who was not to be a partner and that he was to be the sole adventurer). The broker wrote that the business was good and involved no risks and that the opportunity should not be lost. Damu Anna was considering this opportunity; He could not at once determine whether to venture into the speculation. He thought about this and as he was a devotee of Baba, he wrote a detailed letter to Shama explaining all the facts and requested him to consult Baba and get His advice in the matter. Shama got the letter the next day and he came with it at noon to the Masjid and placed it before Baba. Baba asked Shama what the matter was and what the letter was about. Shama replied that Damu Anna wanted to consult Him about something. Then Baba said, “What does he write and what does he plan? It seems that he wants to reach the sky and that he is not content with what God has given him; read his letter”. Shama then said, “The letter contains what you just said. Oh Deva, you sit here calm and composed and agitate devotees and when they get restless, you draw them here, some in person and others through letters. If you know the contents of the letter, why do you then press me to read it?” Baba said, “Oh Shama, please read it. I speak at random and who believes Me.” Then Shama read the letter and Baba heard it attentively and said with great emotion, “Damu Anna has gone mad. Write him a reply that nothing is wanting in his house; Let him be content with the half-loaf he has now and let him not bother about hundreds of thousands of rupees.” Shama sent the reply which Damu Anna was anxiously waiting for; Upon reading it, he found that all his hopes and prospects about grand profits were dashed. ....... Bow to Shri Sai - Peace be to all
