Shama went the next day and found Baba\u2019s words true.<\/p>\n<p>Kakasaheb Dixit records another prophecy concerning a woman whose illness was described in a letter. Baba said she would come to Him herself after four days; on the fourth day she passed away.<\/p>\n<p>During Guru Purnima, Hemadpant and Moreshwar Pradhan were both without money. Baba sent Pradhan to Hemadpant for dakshina, even though everyone believed Hemadpant had none. A few minutes earlier, money had unexpectedly arrived for Hemadpant, showing that Baba knew what had happened.<\/p>\n<p>The chapter also recounts a Brahmin saved from a death sentence and Chidambar Gadgil\u2019s joy when Baba accepted worship offered to Him as Lord Ganesha.<\/p>\n<h3>What this account invites us to reflect on<\/h3>\n<p>The accounts invite reflection on Baba\u2019s awareness of events beyond ordinary sight and on the quiet faith that acts upon His guidance before circumstances explain it.<\/p>\n<p class=\"ap-story-note\"><strong>Editorial note:<\/strong> This page is a concise paraphrase for web presentation.
