Sai Baba’s Assurance in the Sai Satcharitra
The Sai Satcharitra is filled with stories where Baba protects devotees—not always by removing difficulty, but by transforming its meaning.
Story 1: Baba Saves the Devotee From Cholera
During epidemics in Shirdi, devotees panicked.
Baba remained calm.
His presence itself became protection.
People realized:
Faith is stronger than fear.
Baba’s grace works invisibly.
Story 2: The Burning Lamp of Confidence
A devotee once worried:
"What if Baba leaves me?"
Baba replied:
"I never leave anyone who remembers Me."
Protection is remembrance.
Story 3: The Child and the Saint
Just as a child feels fearless holding the mother’s hand…
The devotee becomes fearless holding Baba in the heart.
Sai Baba’s promise is relational:
Stay with Me inwardly, and fear dissolves.
