OM SAI RAM
I am Shri.Suraj Kumar, the son of Shri Gangadhara Salian Suraj and Smt. Seetha Kumar have come from the middle-class family. Completed my Degree in B.Com and now working in Anupam Gas Distributor as Manager.
In my life there was a reason for becoming a devotee of Shree Sai Baba, that is due to the accidental death of my mother I got despaired and lost interest in living and sat lonely on one corner. On this movement one old elder lady came and asked me why child you are sitting sadly. The old elder lady told that I will tell one story, if you listen to that then your worries will disappear. The old lady told child there is nearby Shree Shirdi Sai Baba Mandir at Chilimbi, you visit that mandir every Thursday and express all your worries and meditate on Sai Baba then Sai Baba will heal your sorrow and the old lady went invisible.
On her instruction, every Thursday I went to Shree Shirdi Baba Mandir at chilimbi and deeply merged on Sai Baba’s image and meditated for some time and myself said that you are everything Sai Baba and Surrendered to him and bowed. At that movement, I felt that some power entered my body. From that onward every Thursday I used to go to Shree Shirdi Sai baba Mandir and had darshan , meditate then I continued with my day to day work. I was not aware of Sai Baba and started reading the life history of Sai Baba every day. Due to this I came to know what had happen to Sai Baba life time and how he responded to difficulties of people without considering religion, caste and creed. Due to the divinity, I found in Sai Baba I started helping people which was within my limit. I started fasting on every Thursday. Due to this fasting what work I had planned became easier and success. Due to this success, I started believing even more on Sai Baba. Even though I was born and raised in a middle-class family I became successful, prosperous and good gentleman only by the grace of Sai Baba. If I would not have gone to Sai Baba Mandir I couldn’t imagine what type of unpleasant condition I would have faced.
Due to all the reasons, I desired to go Sai Baba Temple at Shirdi and have his divine darshan. As I desired I immediately got an opportunity to go to Shirdi and have darshan of Sai Baba. After having darshan of Sai Baba my eyes filled with tears and felt fulfillment in my life. I felt not to leave Shirdi Sai Baba sanctum and prayed Sai Baba to give another opportunity to have his divine darshan.
After few days, it struck to my mind there are so many people who are willing to have darshan of Sai Baba at lowest cost. So, I decided to take everyone to go to Shirdi and have Sai Baba’s divine darshan.
I prayed Sai Baba to show me the way to take all those people who are willing to go to Shirdi and have his divine darshan, within the second I thought of conducting the Shirdi Tour. Due to the blessings of Sai Baba I could conduct pilgrimage tour to Shirdi and other holy temples. For the very first time I took 50 people to Shirdi Sai Temple and have darshan of Sai Baba. People felt blessed and enjoyed the divinity and it was possible only due to the blessing of Shree Sai Baba otherwise it wouldn’t have possible. Thereafter every year I used to conduct tour to Shirdi, then every 6 month, then every 3 months and nowadays every month. I wish to thank my owner of Anupam gas Distributors Mr. Suresh and my colleagues. I pray for the welfare of them and their family to Sai Baba.
I felt very happy after providing the tour to old aged ashram residents to Shirdi Sai Baba’s temple, at free of cost. I don’t know how, at the same time I thought in my mind of constructing a temple of Shri Shirdi Sai Baba. I was asking to Sai Baba that I don’t have land and money, then how can I build a temple. Instantly I felt internally, Sai Baba is there with me and saying not to worry. As the days passed the thought of constructing a temple became more and more. At the same one incident happened. One of my friend Mr. Sachin asked me do you wish to have a land. There is a land available in Narikombu at Shamboor in Bantwal Taluk. I was surprised that, how he came to know that I was searching for a land to build a temple. Then I realized this is nothing but Shri Sai Baba miracle. Immediately we went to see the place and felt very happy after seeing the place. On the same spot I prayed Sai Baba, if his grace is there, then this place will be ours otherwise no. After few days I bought the same land to construct the temple. There is no doubt that money was arranged only because of Sai Baba. I thank once again Sai Baba, without having money it was possible for me to purchase the land.
I started Shree Sai Trust on 20th of December 2015, by combining all the pilgrimages who had visited Shirdi. Thereafter, through Sai Trust I started visiting old age and child care ashram’s, spending time and helping them by donation or needy things. Since then myself and Trust members are serving for the cause of the society in all kinds such as money, health care, education, orphanages etc.
Through Shree Sai Trust on every year we have been celebrating Rama Navami, Guru Poornima and Deepavali with great enthusiasm. On every annual year celebration we conducted drama based on Shree Sai Baba’s biography. The only reason for achieving all these events is due to Shree Sai Trust Members support financially, morally, and encouraging to carry on. So I will always be gratitude to my Thrust Members. I convey my message that I will keep continuing many other contributions to the welfare of society.
Finally I am going to construct a temple of Shree Shirdi Sai Baba and expecting all the devotees to contribute in all forms, so that all the people around this world will receive the blessing of Shree Shirdi Sai Baba.
