Raju – our Bhagavan’s sister, Venkamma would recall the Tammi Raju’s home had become a home of Sai miracles. Raju would grant them visions of the gods and show them other thrilling spectacles. 

On Lord Krishna’s Birthday, Raju asked Tammi Raju’s wife, Kameswaramma, to keep a Peetam, a pedestal for an idol, a seat for the Divine, in the Pooja room and said that He would go over to give her darshan there. That day and the next, He blessed them with thrilling experiences.

Well, really unbelievable miracles happened there at Tammi Raju’s residence! Here goes the narration. 

“Bhagavan came and sat on the Peeta in the Pooja room and asked all to come in and sit by His side. He then asked whether we did not desire to see the various leelas of previous births. When we welcomed the idea enthusiastically, He agreed to show them to us and all the family collected around! He ordered us to watch Him, and would you believe that? You may not, until you yourself experience the same or similar miracles of Baba!

We were thrilled by the form of Narayana on the ocean of milk, reclining on Vatapatra. We heard only word after word, announcing the next form. The forms changed from one surprise to another in quick succession. We were given enough time to imbibe the beauty and the splendour of each form and to be struck by the spontaneous power of Baba’s Sankalpa! 

And where was Baba, our Sathya, all the time? He became Gajendra, raising His trunk to greet Vishnu on the horizon; Krishna, the cowherd boy leaning on a tree and playing the flute; Gopala on the awe-inspiring Kalinga serpent; Radha-Krishna, Lakshmi-Narayana, Parvati-Parameshwara and Saraswati-Brahma too!

Then we saw a Sita–Rama and lo! we heard the name of Satyabhama and saw her.  We are blessed by (a) vision of Baba’s invisible call of Mohini, the form that Vishnu once assumed; of Prahlada, yearning for Narayana; and immediately thereafter, Narasimha killing Hiranyakasipu; also Vamana, Parasurama and Buddha too! 

Baba showed us the killing of Sisupala, Saindhava and of the Rakshasas. There was the scene of the Lord bringing the Parijatha flower. The picture then changed to one of Panduranga and Narada and his ecstatic praise of the Lord!

The next one was Navaneetha Chora, the Bala Krishna stealing butter, and after that the killing of Abhimanyu by the wicked Kaurava chiefs, and last there was a magnificent Maruthi of Shirdi Baba Himself! 

How can we ever forget those shining forms, so full of vitality and life, that glowed before our eyes on those two sacred days!”

Really unbelievable indeed! They are all on record collected from the first-hand information. Raju’s fame spread everywhere. 

Tammi Raju began writing ‘Sri Sai Natha Shatakam,’ a collection of a 108 poems on Shirdi Baba, which took shape as a printed book in 1944. At Tammi Raju’s request, Raju was to go on one evening to his house to go through the manuscript. Raju’s folks did not like the idea, perhaps because they had a lurking taboo against the Muslim Baba of Shirdi. So they compelled Raju to join them instead for the evening show of a bio-scope – a local term in those days for the cinema.

Raju never liked to visit (the) cinema house! He had no choice but to go with them. But strangely the dynamo, the source of the electricity for the cinema, failed and there was no show, either in the evening or at night, and all of them returned home disappointed! 

A family member developed a severe asthmatic attack at night and could not be relieved. Only by Raju’s Vibuthi medicine! See, these are all unbelievable! 

All the characters mentioned in all of our epics are demonstrated by Bhagavan. He Himself transformed into those characters and gave to the family members and others that gathered there. What a mighty power of a Bhagavan! 

Once Raju sent Kameswaramma a picture of Shirdi Baba to which she started performing Pooja every day. A bumble bee carried it to her. Sometime later, a baby monkey brought a cloth bag and dropped it near her on the balcony where she has drying her special Pooja saree.  The bag contained a laddu as prasadam and a letter written by Raju, congratulating her on her devotional Pooja. In her prayer room was a rare gift from Raju, a six inch square gherua, meaning ochre cloth worn by Shirdi Sai Baba when He went into Samadhi. 

Raju and Kameswaramma were indeed very close and she wrote in her memoirs of her daily acceptance of Raju as a Divine being. Kameswaramma used to do Purana Kalashepam – narration of stories from scriptures every day. At that time, Raju would bring His brother’s children supposedly for tutoring them, but actually for giving them a chance to hear the inspirational stories........
