Some Anecdotes OF Shrimadji's Life ..

 1. Once Shrimadji had gone out with a friend for a walk in Bombay and on His way He came near a cemetery. He asked His friend as to what was the place they came by. His friend replied: "Cemetery". Shrimadji said that He viewed the whole Bombay city as a cemetery.

2. Once Shrimadji's neighbour knowing His superhuman powers told Him that He must be knowing the market rates of all commodities and such knowledge could be used to His financial benefit in His dealings in shares. To this Shrimadji replied that He was not a fool to use His spiritual powers for such petty selfish benefits.

3. Once Padamshibhai, a resident of Kutch, sought from Him the remedy for removing his fear of death. Shrimadji advised that till life is fully led according to fixed destiny there is no death. Why then should we not live well until death visits us ? By the fear of death one cannot be free from death. Be fearless, lead a chaste life & embrace death when it comes.

4. Shrimadji's servant Lallu, a resident of Morbi, who had stayed with His family for a number of years caught a deadly disease in Bombay. He used to daily nurse him personally till Lallu breathed his last.

5. Once Shrimadji went to see Tokarshibhai, who had Pneumonia & whose sickness was growing fatal. In Shrimadji's presence Tokarshibhai became quiet & experienced peace & joy. After some time Shrimadji receded from him and said to other relatives of Tokarshibhai that the latter was gradually sinking. When Shrimadji was asked as to how did he know it and as to what did He do by which Tokarshibhai got a relief from his pain & enjoyed peace, Shrimadji replied that He could see Tokarshibhai's death and He therefore tried to change his mind & last desires so as to improve his spiritual prospects for the future birth.

6. Once Shrimadji asked His three years old daughter her name, to which she replied that her name was Kashi. Shrimadji lovingly said: "No you are the Self." But Kashiben refused to agree to it. Shrimadji laughed at the child's ignorance.
