My First Encounter With Sri Sai Nath
Jai Sai Raam…Yesh has been telling me since a long time to start writing but somehow I was not able to do it..for one reason or the other..I don’t know wat has motivated me today to start writing..probably its my guru..my lord…my best frnd..Sri Sai baba.. and my first Blog is dedicated to him..
The first nd faintest memory I have of baba is when I would be three or four.That time we lived in ghaziabad in a flat..my dad’s elder brother my tau ji stayed at 2nd floor nd my family stayed at first floor. I was extremely fond of my tauji though he passed away when I was really very small but I know for sure that he loved me very much nd so did I. I still miss him nd he is one of my fondest memory of my childhood..JMay god provide peace to his soul. In his living room right in front of the entrance there was a laminated picture frame..on a slab..it was a close-up of a saint who had covered his head with a piece of cloth..it had a spark in his eyes..This iam able to recall now but as a child I think I never noticed that picture apart from this that he is Sai Baba..but nothing more than that..some times later my tau ji passed away..and few years later we shifted to Raipur.
Time flew and I went to school and then to college…But my ‘Sai’ was not known to me..I was completely unaware of his existence in my life..then I started my college nd also started my own business..a boutique nd a manufacturing unit..”IMPRESSIONS” my second identity till date..after so many yrs lots of people in town still know me by Nupur from impressions..Jnd iam proud about it..J
Then after almost twenty years again Sai baba again came back into my life nd this time he was there to be with me..stay with me forever..Jto bless me..Me along with my parents nd two sisters moved into this house..i am very fond of decorating the house nd doing the interiors..Me nd my younger sisters swati nd payal started decorating the house. In the hall there was a glass showcase where there was baba’s picture on the glass door..As I was cleaning the house..i didn’t like that picture..i thought it was spoiling the décor of the house( how pity..nd now I want to see baba everywhere..)I tried everything to remove it from the glass door but was unable to do that..after trying hard I gave up..but now I know that it was SAI baba’s wish he had come into my life to be with me..SAI was there in my house but I was unfortunate that inspite of baba being so close to me I never bowed my head infront of him…
