Among the hundreds of stories of Swami’s grace and love that I had heard in my student days, one story stuck in my heart for its uniqueness. And that story brought new meaning to the Oscar Wilde quote that every sinner has a future and saint has a past. It showed that there are instances where even a sinner has a glorious past. But that glorious past is forgotten due to complete indulgence in the world. The soul starts blundering and floundering in life till God's compassion descends and reveals the Truth.
This is a story filled with miracles of both Shirdi Sai Baba and Sathya Sai Baba. It highlights the various facets of a true Sadguru and shows the Love and Compassion of such a Sadguru.
This was a talk delivered during Guru Purnima, 2023 at the Pinner Sai Centre in London.
