vision of Shirdi through the eyes of Saibhaktha M.B.REGE
When we read about Baba, the
literature carries descriptions about Shirdi when Baba used to walk on its
soil. Here is excerpt from a letter written by Saibhakta M. B. REGE to his
brother Sridhar……
LETTERS OF SRI M.B. REGE SRI GURUDEV M.B. Rege, B.A., LL.,B.,Advocate28, South Tukoganj,Indore, M.P.,24th August 1968 Dear Brother Sridhar,
1) The colour of Baba I would put as wheat colour but there were some brilliance which cannot be described. At times there would be bright aura round his face.
2)His height was approximately 5’10”
3) His daily routine was that in the morning just after sunrise he would wash his face and hands sitting in what I may call the Verandah. Then he would be in his seat smoking a tobacco chilam, and people would come for his Darshan. About an hour later, He would go to the Lendi. The route was through the village and Radhakrishna Ayee would sweep the road backwards so as not to step on the swept portion. The Lendi was then a sort of deep canal. some people accompanied and awaited his return from the canal. He would be there for about an hour. On his return he would wash his feet and then go out for Bhiksha. During my visit I would accompany him. As far as I know, He went to Lendi only once in a day.
With love and kind regards.
Ever yours,
At the feet of the Master(Sd.)
M. B. REGE
