35. Shirdi Saibaba’s Respect and Love for Lord Hanuman (Maruti is also called
Anjaneyar in Tamilnadu)
Once it was raining in Shirdi. Sai used to stay in the Hanuman Mandhir near by
Dwarakamai . Rain water kept falling from the roof to platform (floor) where Sai used to sit
but Saibaba continued to be there. A man asked him to go to the upper platform where
Hanuman was also there. Sai told him:
“We must not be in equal position of Maruti.”
This incident so beautifully explains Sai always considered himself as Servant of God and
his immense love and respect for Lord Hanuman.
