Baba saved the life of the son-in-law of Shri A. J. Metha, 56, Tagore Road, Santacruz (W) Bombay.

In the third quarter of the year 1962, while attending officer's training class of L. I. C. of India at Nagpur in the month of September, 1962, my wife and myself (she joined) me at Manmad had been to Shirdi to offer our prayers to Baba's Samadhi. At that time, we have decided not to visit Shirdi in October (our practice being to visit Shirdi twice a year in March and October) since we had done so in September. This was our decision, but Baba's wishes was different. He desired that we must pay our visit to Shirdi in October too as per our practice. This can be seen from the incident narrated as under. It was the "Sharad Pournima" day in the year 1962. My son-in-law and some friends had taken three cars and had gone on a picnic party to enjoy "Sharad Pournima" night. First to Juhu Beach of Snata-cruz and then to Khapoli near Khandala. After enjoying feast in the above two places, they were returning to Bombay from Khapoli early in the morning of the next day. Just when they were near Thana, their car skidded and fell into nalla. Fortunately, a police van which was overtaken the occupants of a car saw the car in the nalla. The Police immediately rendered necessary help and all the injured were first taken to the Thana Civil Hospital and then to Harkisondas Hospital at Bombay. This sad news of the accident conveyed to us by my son-in-law's brother at 10 A.M. but he could not give details of the incident. On hearing this incident's news, I became very nervous and my wife asked me to overcome my nervousness and said "Let us start praying our Baba". He is sure to listen our prayers for the life of our son-in-law as Baba always look of the happiness of His devotees. And to our greatest surprise, when we reached the Harkisondas Hospital we found that our son-in-law was free from any major injuries and he recovered with in a week. This was nothing but Baba's grace because one of his friends who was on wheel unfortunately met his death and most of others have sustained major and only my son-in-law's recovery was miraculous by the grace of Baba. Within a week of son-in-law's recovery, we went to Shirdi to offer our gratitude to Baba for saving our son-in-law's life and thus His wish for our visiting Shirdi in October as usual was fulfilled.
