I shall give you the Feet of 'Sai
Baba'
After the Birthday Celebrations,
Baba left for the village of Repalle, in Guntur District, to
install a marble idol of His previous Appearance in the temple
there. Baba had installed such idols in a few places previously,
at Madras and Coimbatore and at the Ayodhya Asram, near
Madanapalle. At Madras, where he had sanctified the temple at
Guindy, in His twenty-second year, the Bhaktha who had built the
temple washed and worshipped His Feet and wanted an impression
of the Feet on a piece of silk cloth in sandal paste. Baba said,
"I shall give you the Feet of 'Sai Baba', My previous Body!" and
lo, the Impression that the silk cloth received from those
lovely tender Feet of His was that of a pair of Feet, nearly
double the size of Baba's, and definitely that of a person above
sixty years of age! The silk cloth with the sandal paste
impression that He gave so miraculously to prove that He is "the
same Baba come again" is there, inside the shrine at Guindy, for
all to see!
