Balagovind Upasani Sastry, younger brother of Upasani Maharaj went to Haridwar and Rishikesh in 1922. He met an ascetic who told him his past unsolicited including his family details and their intimate devotion to Sai Baba. He asked Balagovind to meet him again in the afternoon. Since Balagovind thought that his mother also should be blessed by the ascetic, he took her to the same spot but the ascetic was nowhere to be seen. Then he recalled Sai Baba’s words – ‘Nobody comes without a relationship’. A similar experience was faced by Mohite Baba when he visited Shirdi in 1950. He met a great Sadhu at Lendi Baugh. When he brought his associate, the Sadhu had disappeared. However, he was seen in the same place later. Mohite Baba realized that it was Lord Sainath himself who gave ‘darshan only to him.
