Sharvani often helps the divine boy with his homework and prepares him for his exams at the end of each semester, offering a truly amazing service. One day, Sharvani came to the second floor of Prema Sai's house and was looking for the divine boy.
She looked cautiously into my room where I was sitting with my wife on a mat very close to Prema Sai Baba, who was sleeping on the bed. Sharvani excused herself and then closed the door.
She then looked toward the stairs leading to the roof. Much to her surprise the young woman saw the boy Prema Sai Baba calmly descending the stairs from the roof. At that time Prema Sai was nine years old.
Another incident happened when Prema Sai Baba was ten years old. In those days, about twenty devotees from Russia were staying at his house. One evening the divine boy played with the devotees on the large balcony on the second floor.
That evening he did the first tea ceremony for everyone, and we enjoyed Chinese tea prepared by Prema Sai himself. He did the ceremony so competently and professionally that it seemed he was an experienced master of tea ceremonies with many years of experience.
After finishing the tea ceremony, Prema Sai went to the first floor with several people following after him wanting to escort him to his room located there. He entered the room and said goodbye until tomorrow, as it was already late in the evening.
The group of devotees said goodbye and then went back up to the second floor. Much to their surprise, they saw the divine boy sitting quietly on the floor in the living room on the second floor.
For some of those present, it was such a big shock that a couple of people simply sat on chairs and fell into a long silence. As with the other teleportation incident, I was also a direct participant in this event and can testify to these astounding occurrences.
27. Watch hidden behind a pillow
When we visited Bangkok with the holy family at the beginning of 2020, another important incident happened to me. Prema Sai was then seven and a half years old. In order to understand the deep meaning of this event, I first need to tell the story that happened in the room of Sathya Sai Baba in the late ‘90s, when I was his interpreter for Russian-speaking devotees.
One group from Russia received an interview, a personal communication with Sathya Sai Baba. As usual, I went to the meeting room in order to translate during communication. As we know, only Sathya Sai Baba himself decided who and when people would get the opportunity to communicate with him personally.
People did not know in advance who and when Sathya Sai Baba would invite to the cherished room in order to talk to him personally. Naturally, these were unique experiences of direct communication and the opportunity to ask your personal questions, as well as receive individual instructions on spiritual practices.
At that interview, as usual, we were sitting in the room on the floor, and Sathya Sai Baba was in his chair. There was a conversation, and people asked questions and listened carefully to the precious answers while I translated. Suddenly, Sathya Sai Baba got up abruptly from his chair, turned the chair in my direction, and then went into the next room. To my surprise, I saw there was a watch on the chair behind the pillow, part of which was hidden behind the pillow and part visible.
After a couple of minutes, Sathya Sai Baba returned from the next room and sat down on the chair again. I knew something special was going on. Among the objects that Sathya Sai Baba materialized there were not only rings and rosaries, but also watches. I thought that most likely he would now materialize those same items for someone present.
For me there was no doubt this was Sai's amazing humor, a kind of provocation for the mind. Some in my place might doubt that Sathya Sai Baba is perhaps just a magician. Of course, I knew Sathya Sai Baba too well and understood that all this was just, "jokes of Sai".
A moment later, Sathya Sai Baba called one of the meeting participants to him. As soon as the man came closer, Sathya Sai began characteristic movements with his right hand and materialized the very watch. I remember this case because it was very unusual, one might even say it was a kind of a test of my awareness and understanding.
I told you this strange story because there is an even more unusual sequel involving Prema Sai Baba. At the very beginning of 2020, we went to Bangkok with the holy family for a couple of weeks. Once we visited a large shopping center. Teja Mani, Prema Sai's mother, and Svetlana went shopping for relatives, while the divine boy and I sat on a sofa and waited for the shopping to be completed.
Prema Sai Baba asked me for my watch, so I immediately took it off and handed it to him. There were small pillows on the sofa we sat on. He took my watch and placed it behind a pillow next to him. He laid this watch in exactly the same way it had laid during the interview with Sathya Sai Baba. After the boy placed the timepiece in this way, he slyly looked at me and asked if I remember how in a past life, he also showed me the watch behind the pillow on his chair.
At that moment he was seven and a half years old. Such stories are amazing because Sai is able not only to perform miracles, but to build multi-level chains of miracles that reveal deep meanings and transform human consciousness. Sometimes, he performs the beginning of a miracle in one life and completes this
