Experience no.4

I just had this wonderful experience and again got the massage from Maharaj - "don't worry....I am here for you..."
Maharaj helps us all in every way and miracles happen just because of him...!!!

My mother is a very sincere teacher and this year she got the election duty in a very small village of Daund district where there was no water, electricity , bathrooms etc.
My mother has problems with her health with her diabetes and difficulty in walking so I was worried that how will she manage all this stuff for 3 days and ofcourse far from Pune. I live far from her so I was worried more....
As I thought ,she experienced all the hardships including getting no food and water at times, and walking a lot from one place to other. I got more stressed because of her dibetes history. That village was so remote as there were no communications options too....I started thinking as what will happen to her? or if her sugar will become low....how even she will manage? who will help her ? .

And as always I just started praying Maharaj...and somewhere I knew that because of Maharaj nothing will happen very drastic....and I was right...even if she never got lunch or dinnet at times surprisingly she faced no problems related with her sugar level...no dizziness at all even if she did not get water ...
I think this is a miracle and happned only because Maharaj came to save us...

Yet her another difficulty came as in the night after elections they reached to the main center in Daund very late in the night and of course with no dinner or snack....it was 11.30- 12.00 midnight and they were not relieved from that center....
I was scared to death and thought how she will reach Pune now ? where she will stay in Daund if they made them to wait through the night...
I did the namasmaran and told Maharaj that please help her....I suddenly said to Maharaj .... please help me Maharaj...plesae help my mother to reach her home safely ....in my next trip to Inida I will visit Shegaon....

Surprisingly within 3 to 4 hours my Mother called me from her home in Pune and told me ...don't worry...I reached home safely....somehow things happened all of sudden so fast in that center, they told us to leave and there was not just 1 but in all 4 buses standing next to the center to go to Pune....when she reached to ShiwajiNagar around at 2.45 am ..she met this kind AutoRikshaw Driver just standing next to Bus stop...and without any obstacles or fighting for more money he dropped her....when she reached home and called me it was around 4.00 or 5.00am in the morning.

This was so amazing as at 12.30 midnight she was in a plce 3 hrs far from Pune where there was no possibility of relieveing from the duty ...and within this short time Maharj helped her and me in every way ....and my mother was at her place safe ...

Again I got "Prachiti" as always...Maharaj is with me...I got this message...and when my husband came home I told him we are going to Shegaon when we'll visit Pune...and I am going to visit Shegaon ...

I just want to tell you all that Maharaj help.....aapan shraddha aani wishwas thewaycha... namasmaran karat rahayche.... .Mharajanwar wishawas thewaycha... .he is there to help me in my difficult time....I am lucky to have Maharaj...!
Gan Gan Ganat Bote...

Experience No.3

My grandfather took my mother at maharaj's mandir in 1977 way back before I was born so I am aquainted with maharaj for a long time now since my birth 1991....
so as time passes We get a lot of experiences and maharaj shows his existence and his love for us so seeing your faith, love and serenity for mahraj I thought of sharing more of my experiences which will increase your faith in maharaj..... .
the last story was of my uncle but this is my own....

It was november and it was festival time and we had just finished the three important days of diwali so we decided to visit shegaon as it had been a 8 to 10 months since we visited last.
We own a maruti zen but my dad said in no time we have decided to go so let's rent a car and go safely as I can rest so we booked a tata sumo and a known driver named bassapa who drove the car.
Shegaon is 500kms from Pune and takes about 10 to 12 hours!
travelling in a tata sumo we decided to take my two cousin sisters who are 20-25 years of age my mom's maushi with us as there is a lot of place in this big car .
we started at 3'o clock in the afternoon we stopped at ranjangaon temple of asthavinayak ganpati and took tea there it was dusk by that time and night was falling by the time we reached aurangabad it was 10:30 and shegaon is 6 hours from auragabad we stopped there for dinner we asked the driver whether we should halt at aurangabad or continue our journey towards shegaon....
He said no problem I can drive till hydrabad we said ok no problem lets continue but he was eating so much for dinner and my father is an expert in driving he asked him bassappa how come you eat so much if you have to drive because after eating you'll feel sleepy he denied that too.
Then at 2 we reached jalna he said he was feeling sleepy we stopped there for 15 mins and again he said I'll drive then I dont know the place exactly but 25 kms before chikhli he denied driving further he said I cant drive any longer let's stay here we had two young girls with us there was nothing open in that place except a pan shop it was 2:30.
My father took the charge of driving as told earlier he drove zen, tata sumo in the middle of the night was a new experience for him but he drove then 30kms before shegaon the driver woke up and we reached shegaon safely!!

Some might think what's there in it? but friends jalna to shegaon is a very dark road and we had my two sisters in the car my dad never drove any vehicle other than zen how he drove? how we reached?
its the faith you must have in maharaj and he'll reveal himself in any form for you to know his existence !!

Experience No.2

Hello friends,
I am Parag(Manav is my nick name) and I am disable person and wants to share my experiences with you about our Maharaj
It was the year 1992. I was gone to Jabalpur to attend the marriage. There I fall down on the road and I had shot on lower lumber. That time I just took some pain killer and keep me moving but when I came back after 4 days I suddenly got high fever about 3digree and it was continue for more than 45day. Medication was on in that period. In that period I loosed my weight from 85kg to 36 kg and was so anemic, my hemoglobin was down to 6 and I was hardly able to move. And due injury in lower lumber my both legs got paralyzed and I was in that condition for almost 4 months
One fine day one of our family friend (Mr. Kulkarni) came to see me and suggested me to surrender myself to Gajanan maharaj. I asked them, how?
They told me read "Gajanan Vijay"
I said myself let's give a try and after two day it I started my first Parayan on dashmi
And on third day after finished parayan I was taking the lunch, one bhikshuk came. He didn't have any bag in his hand or on the shoulder to gather anything, nothing was there with him. He didn't demand any money, food, cloths nothing. He directly entered in to the home and stands right in front of me. He saw in my eyes then he went to kitchen then he went to bedroom and again came back to me and said to me "No need to worry, everything will be alright"
And he left home.
Those two minutes I and my mother could not spoke a single word with that bhikshuk. But after that day I start feeling I am recovering and friends within three months I could able to walk with the help clutches
For me it was a miracle.
I have got few more experiences and I will share with you friends one after one.

Experience no. 1

"JAI GAJANAN!! GAN GAN GANATA BOTEY"

As we all believe that only our beloved Sadguru Sri Gajanan Maharaj knows what is good and what is bad for us and also He only knows when, where and how to give the correct thing.

Now just read my below experience:

As I am from Andhra Pradesh I heard about Sri Sai Baba, Sri Panduranga Vitthal but never ever heard about Sri Gajanan Maharaj. I came to Baroda - Gujarat way back in 1984, and I used to go the famous Sri Sidhhi Vinayak mandir in baroda as Iam staunch believer of Sri Ganeshji. I came to know about Sri Gajanan Maharaj may be in the year 1988 when I came in contact with my wife's family (specially my wife's eldest sister who is a staunch believer in Him). Though I heard much and many times about the greatness of Sri Maharaj from her, I never had the opportunity to visit "Shegaon" till late 2000, when we had been on a tour for Maharastra Darshan. It was about 9.30pm or so after we got in to the rooms of Snsthan Dharmasala, and when all our co-travelers were busy searching for food etc my mother, wife, son and I were dragged by Sri Maharaj to the Mandir and gave us peaceful darshan and believe me we were the last, after us the Mandir was closed for the day.

WHAT A MARVELOUS "LEELA OF MAHARAJ". AND THAT MAGNETIC EFFECT IS FROM THEN ON PERMANENT.

Now you will be more surprised to hear that there is Sri Gajanan Maharaj's Mandir very much in Baroda itself, but again I never came to know about it till I had His darshan first in "Shegaon". Even my wife or my wife's sister also never told me about this (as probably they must have thought that "This madrasi knows only "Balaji") and must have not told me. I must have passed by that road innumerable number of times, where this "Mandir" is located but never noticed about it. Only when I first heard through one of our friends I immediately asked my wife and form then on He was so graceful that He made me have His darshan on many "Thursday's" whenever Iam in baroda, which I would say is my "Karma Bhoomi" decided by Him and brought me.

Then after I clearly remember on three occasions I had to cancel my reservation to go to Shegaon, but used to pass through Shegaon - station and I used to get down irrespective of time and remove shoes, touch the ground at the platform itself and pray to Him that please accept my Pranamams and will come to Your darshan to the Mandir when You permit me.

"I FELT LIKE BETTER LATE THAN NEVER". "JAI GAJANAN!!
