The great Saint of Maharashtra - Sant Eknath Maharaj

Pranams at the lotus feet of Eknath Maharaj!

Chapter – 6

Once a few thieves disguised as devotees and attended the Namasankeerthana, while leaving home they took all the vessels and packed, they saw Sant Eknath was immersed in meditation in the small shrine at home.  Suddenly they have lost eyesight,  bumped on to each other and fallen on the ground with a thud, soon Sant Eknath got out of meditation,  he realized that they are thieves, he said “Why  are you taking so much pain, you should have told me, I would have given all those things you have required.  There are a few more things left on the next room as well, go and collect them.”  The thieves in folded hands prayed “ Maharaj, we have made a mistake.  We are not able to see anything, we don’t want anything.  Kindly bless us with eye-sight.” Eknath Maharaj understood that Lord Panduranga imposed punishment to save his devotee.  His eyes were soaked in mercy; he placed his hands on the eyes of the thieves, immediately they have regained the eye-sight.  Sant Eknath said, “ You can take whatever you feel like.” The thieves fell at the feet of Sant Eknath and said “We will not do that mistake again. Kindly forgive us.”
