Synchronicity? Esp? Telepathy?

satchitananda · Nov 11, 2024

I don't normally write about such topics although I am fascinated by such phenomena. I have experienced synchronicity many times. But what happened today was something beyond that and I don't know what to call it.

I am not a great Saibaba bhakt. I have had a friend and have a relative who are avid devotees. So I might have attended a satsang when invited by them, but that was about it. So I see it as strange that I have been finding suggestions on Youtube of Saibaba videos and I have been watching them over the last 2-3 days. It reminded me of my friend who lived in the UK.

P. Mama and Mami were introduced to me by my cousin when I went to London as a student. I was welcomed very warmly into the fold and I was a frequent visitor at their place. Very soon I saw them as my foster parents in a foreign land. I used to love the homely food that I used to eat at their place. Mama used to joke that he got good food every time I visited. Another time I was admiring the roses in her garden and she got me one from the bush. Mama was astounded. "Do you know she does not allow anyone to touch her roses?" he asked. I was deeply touched. I remember one day when it rained hailstones when I was at their place and both Mami and I rushed onto the lawn to gather hailstones when the rain had stopped.

Time moved on. She once visited me in Bangalore when she visited India to go to Puttaparthi for Baba's 75th b'day. My parents were also visiting at that time. Remember spending a lovely evening with her. I might have been in touch with her once or twice after that on Whatsapp. Not seldom do I dream I am back in London and am trying to get onto the underground to get to their house, but never ever get there.

This morning I was lying with my eyes shut and the tube station near their house, their home and Mami appeared before my eyes. Had not contacted her in a very long time. So I decided to Whatsapp her. In the afternoon I got a message from her youngest son telling me she had passed on on the 5th of this month and the funeral had been yesterday. I was gobsmacked. How did I feel like connecting with her today? Baba had probably passed on a message from his avid devotee to me. What do I call this? Whatever it is, I feel blessed - the connection between us was strong enough to survive distance, time and irregular contact. Was blessed to know this family. Somewhere in my wicked youth or childhood I must have done something good.

Dear Satchi,

Thank you for sharing such a wonderful experience with us. It is such an experience to contact the person on the day she passed away or within that week. I have heard similar experiences from others as well.

I have my own personal experience too. One of my ambitions is to teach the students in Sri Sathya Sai Institute of Higher Learnings and I didn't know how to materialize it and who to ask. All of a sudden, knowing that I worked extensively in the IT industry for many years, a professor from Australia contacted me and asked me whether I am willing to submit a paper in ICT World Conference to be held in Puttaparthi. I sent my bio and he called me to discuss more about the white paper. The title of the paper was, "Business model for rural development in India". I worked on this paper right away and send it to the professor and he not only approved the paper for publication but also invited me to participate in the World Information & Communication Technology Conference. This conference had many accomplished professionals worldwide including Dr. S. Panchanathan, who is presently a Director of National Science Foundation in the US and at that time a distinguished professor in the University of Arizona. In the conference, this Australian professor asked me to present the paper summarizing in a PPT for the students and other participants and it was well received by them. Stranger are the ways, things happen.

True Viswa. Sometimes some incidents happen when we hardly expect them to. Until then it is just hearsay, interesting stories, words ..... And then when they happen, they leave such a marvellous feeling of having been privileged to experience something phenomenal.

Dear Madam,
Certain things are beyond our understanding.
I used to stay in coimbatore, where there was a Shiva temple on top of a small hill. There are steps only half way after that it is just rocks. A difficult climb.
One Tiruvadarai I wanted to visit this temple. I kept thinking I should take a coconut and go. But somehow it slipped my mind. I climbed and reached the top. Just at the entrance stood a brahmin, the first question he asked me was "did you bring a coconut". I was totally rattled.
Some things cannot be explained.

Regards
Uma

Dear Sachi ma'am,

You were one of those few members who made me feel welcome and warm in the initial days of joining this forum. Just yesterday evening i was thinking about you. Let me elaborate.

Yesterday i completed my self review for my work and now it awaits managerial review. And while cooking dinner i thought about how around 10 years ago, i had come to office without expectation and saw a glowing review for my work from my manger and how that had made my day and I had written about it. You were one of the few to make me feel good about it and for some crazy reason i recollected that incident, that snippet and your response to it.

I wondered about you just yesterday and here you are today with your snippet. Glad to know you are back!

P.S. Telepathy works!

It is indeed interesting. No explanation for such incidents. I hope there was a shop where you could buy a coconut! Thanks a ton for your response!

Hi beautifullife, so wonderful to hear from you. Thanks a ton for your beautiful response. It is mind-blowing to think about how all these things work. You jusr made my day. Nice to be remembered.

How are you doing? All the best for your review and hope the earlier streak continues. Lots of love and good wishes to you.

It is indeed telepathy. Thoughts have so much power. I guess she or her husband thought about you during the death time and you received the message. But getting to see videos of Sai Baba which reminded of her is unexplainable.

satchitananda · Nov 15, 2024

Hi Paru,

thanks so much. Possible she might have thought of me. So often we think very fondly of people but never really get down to keeping in real touch. Really wish I had been more regular in connecting with her.

Yes, the Sai Baba videos were really inexplicable. And strangely enough have not been seeing very many of them over the last few days after this incident. The universe and all that happens there is indeed a huge mystery.

Hello @satchitananda Madam
I truly believe in telepathy, and I am myself an avid devotee of Shirdi Sai Baba. After reading your article, I can confidently say that you have experienced a soul connection. It is only through such a connection that telepathy works. Even if we are not in direct contact, messages can still be received, and this happens by the law of nature when we are soulmates. Baba always brings beautiful souls together.

I believe this is my first reply to your post, and as I was reading it, I received a notification that you liked my reply on Rihana Madam's thread. Such small coincidences are also part of the connection.

I firmly believe that I have been connected with such a wonderful soul.
Regards
Ratna
