One 'Mrs. Smita Wagh’s left eye was paining tremendously. She tried many medicines but the eye did not get cured. She visited ‘Shree Swāmi’s Darbar' and took the Vibhūtī from us and applied it to her eye. As she was going home, even before reaching her home, her eye stopped paining. This is indeed a miracle due to Vibhūtī! If one constantly remembers ‘Shree Swāmi Samarth Maharaj’, then for sure ‘Shree Swāmi’ too constantly safeguards his / her interest. He saves us from a lot of problems.

“PLEASE DO REMEMBER SWĀMI, HE WILL TAKE YOUR HAND IN HIS HAND AND WILL LOOK AFTER YOU ALL TIMES”.

Once we had performed "Laghurudra" (A special pooja or worship) for ‘Shree Swāmi Maharaj’. ‘Digambar Kurkarni; Guruji’ had conducted the pooja. We had done Abhishek with milk. At that time we required much more milk than usual. Guruji too said, “Swāmi has performed a miracle. Never have we needed so much milk in the past for similar pooja:. Normally a Laghurdra pooja takes a definite time period and milk is constantly poured on the ‘Shree Swāmi’s Paduka’s for that much time and hence one has an estimate of approximately how much milk would be needed. Plus Guruji had performed many such poojas in the past and hence knew the amount of milk required for a ‘Laghurudra’.

With ‘Shree Swāmikrupa’ (Grace) under able guidance of ‘Digambar Kulkarni Guruji’ we also performed “Navachandi-Yag” (‘Chandi’ is one of the names for ‘Durga’ or Goddess who protects the world) (A very elaborate and austere Devi-Pooja). We faced no difficulties while performing it.

On 17^th December 2002, me and my wife went out to finish some outside chores.  We had to go to 3-4 places to complete our work.  We had even informed our children that we would be late.  But suddenly we do not know as what happened…  We finished our work in a great hurry without waiting anywhere and reached home in half an hour, and what happened was as follows: When we reached the ‘Swāmi Darbar’ was full with lot of people.  30-35 ‘Shree Swāmi devotees had come from ‘Shirwal’. ‘Vijay Mane’, ‘Ashok Sankpal’, ‘Balasaheb Mahamuni’ and many others wanted to meet us eagerly.  Our daughter ‘Pradnya’ told everybody that my parents would definitely be late and they have told this to me and hence there was no chance of us coming before they left.   ‘Mr. Vijay Mane’ requested Shree Swāmi Maharaj to bring us home early and we did reach home early.  In this manner Swāmi revalidated his faith.  Truly we had 100% dedicated to complete all our work and come home late.  All our plans were changed and we had to come home almost running in a great hurry.  This was ‘Shree Swāmi’s "Leela".  Man decides but ‘Shree Swāmi’ makes him do what 'Swāmi' wants!  We were quite impressed seeing the Swāmi Bhakti of devotees from ‘Shirwal’ ‘Vinayak Ganesh Deshpande’ is also a very great Swāmi-Bhakta.
