‘Shree Swāmi’ is the loving mother and is an ocean of mercy.  There is a peculiarity about ‘Shree Swāmi’ Bhaktas. Whenever they do ‘Shree Swāmi’ Bhakti, they get some sort of experience immediately.

There is a special thing about Devotees of ‘Shree Swāmi’.  When one worships Him with a heart full of faith, one immediately gets some sort of indication that ‘Shree Swāmi’ is there with them. ‘Shree Swāmi’ during His "Avatārkārya" (During His lifetime) performed countless miracles. Even today, He is performing them. What He did years ago, similar ‘Leelas’ (sportive endeavours) ‘Shree Swāmi’ does and enjoys even today.

We are writing this book to make people understand about the above mentioned fact. Our innermost intense desire is that in every household ‘Shree Swāmi’s Pooja should be performed.  All the people must love ‘Shree Swāmi’.  I feel like shouting loudly and proclaiming that serve and worship Him with love, and you will experience the ‘Truth’ regarding what we have told you.   ‘Shree Swāmi Māuli’ will never let you down.

Once it so happened that on 10^th of every month we have a "Satsang" (a religious function). One such "Satsang" was going on. It was 6.30 p.m. We felt that many people were coming up the stairs.  I tried to see as to who were climbing the stairs and to my surprise…. I saw Shree ‘Shree Swāmi Samarth' Maharaj, Bālappa, Cholappa, Sundrābāi & Bhujanga, all these people coming up the stairs. ‘Shree Swāmi’ looked so tall that even the 6’6" tall door was not enough for him to come straight in.  ‘Shree Swāmi’ was stooping down and entering our house. He had long legs and hence in only two strides he covered the distance between the door and the "Gādi" (His seat).  ‘Shree Swāmi’ entered our house and sat on the "Gādi".  Bālappa, Cholappa, Sundrābāi and Bhujanga all sat huddled together. ‘Shree Swāmi’ pointed at the "Padukas" and said, "I am here!"

Just few days ago, early morning at about 4.00 a.m., I suddenly woke up with a vision.  I saw ‘Shree Swāmi’ Samādhi Mandir. I was fully awake and not asleep when I got this vision.  I was standing near a wooden pillar second last from the left side of the original ‘‘Shree Swāmi’ Samadhi Mandir’ at 'Akkalkot'.  A thick blue coloured rug was spread on the ground.  I was carrying a "Veena" (A musical instrument with strings) supported by a thick rope across my shoulder.  I was constantly doing the "Japa" (Chanting), ‘Shree Swāmi Samarth’, ‘Shree Swāmi’ Samarth’ to the tune of the Veena.  I was transported to the era where only four days had passed since ‘Shree ‘Shree Swāmi’ Samarth Maharaj’ had taken ‘Samadhi’ (left the mortal coil). I felt despondent and thought that life was useless without ‘Shree Swāmi’s existence. Then my inner self told me that, the despondent thought was wrong and should continue chanting ‘Shree Swāmi’s holy name and I continued chanting, ‘Shree Swāmi Samarth’, ‘Shree Shree Swāmi’ Samarth’.
