While starting the Divya pooja take a small piece of white cloth to the size of your
palm. Dip it in turmeric water and dry it on the previous day.
On the First Thursday Put Baba’s idol or photo on a new piece of cloth in your
shrine. Put chandan and tilak to Baba. According to your shradha (faith) and
financial capacity make a garland of sweet scented flowers and put it for
Baba. Offer lamps with ghee. Offer Agarbathi and dhoop. You can keep Lord
Ganesha idol/photo or any other Gods photos along with Baba while doing this
pooja.
After having kept everything ready for the divya pooja, in front of Baba put a 1 or
2 rupee or dollar coin in the turmeric piece of cloth and tie it. Tell Baba your wish
and do sankalpa to do the pooja for 5, 7, 11 or 21 weeks. Keep this next to
Baba. You need to tie the coin in the cloth only on the first Thursday you begin
the pooja.
Offer flowers. Do Namaskaram to Sai and read Shri Sai Ashtothara Satanamavali
while putting flowers or flower petals on Baba. Then read the 6 stories given
below.
Then sing Babas songs or meditate on Baba, give arathi and make Kichidi for
naivedyam and offer it to Baba. After finishing the number of weeks you have
vowed, you need to do udyapan. Invite, ladies, men or kids to your house as
many as you can, give them Kichidi as Prasad and distribute either 5, 11, 21, 51 or
101 Sai Divya Pooja book (or print outs).
You should not do this pooja without eating anything or on empty stomach. Put all
your concentration on praying Baba with devotion, faith and patience. That’s all.
Leave the rest of the procedures on Baba to guide you. After you have taken a
vow and finished the divya pooja (5, 7, 11 or 21 weeks) you can take a vow and do
it again for 5, 7, 11 or 21 weeks. If you cannot do the pooja on any particular
Thursday due to unavoidable circumstances or during women’s menstrual cycle,
leave that Thursday and continue on the following Thursday. Do not count that
Thursday and complete the intended number of Thursdays as per your vow. Do
the pooja in your house or in the same location where you place the coin. May
Baba bless you and fulfil your wishes. Jai Sairam.
Shri Sai Ashtotthara Satanamavali
(Read while offering flowers or flower petals on Baba’s lotus feet)
One day I came from office picked my child from day care and came home. My
neighbouring lady came and said “sister, can I talk to you please”. She looked
sad. I felt bad for her. I said sure come in and sit. “What happened why do you
look sad, do tell me, with Babas grace I will help you as much as I can.”
“Sister what do I say, I am leaving the house and going away as I am really in a
bad situation” She said. I did not know what to say. I felt it was a big mistake. She
gave my little boy something to eat and set the tea to boil, then I went near her
and asked what happened. She said, I am leaving my house and going to my
parents place. I cannot take it anymore. I have a hole in my heart and cannot take
stress.” I told her to tell me what happened in more detail. I was worried and felt
her decision was wrong since she had a 3 year old girl and was pregnant too.
She said “The doctor took scan of the baby and said it is a girl, everybody in the
house wants a boy and they keep saying bad things to me. On one side my
husband is stressed since his business is not doing well. I cannot take all this
anymore.”
I said “Will you listen to me”, “I will do whatever you want me to do sister” she
replied. Then I told her today is Wednesday, take a small white cloth and dip it in
turmeric water and dry it. Tomorrow morning put a 1 rupee coin in it sit in front
of Baba and convey your wish, tie it and keep it in the shrine then pray to Baba
with ashtotram, flowers, dhoopam and deepam. Offer Kichidi as naivaidya. She
said I will do exactly as you say and went home happily.
The next day evening I went to call her. She said I will come to your house in a
few minutes, After a few minutes she came home and explained, “Baba answered
my prayers, He did a miracle, Today again my mother-in-law took me to the
doctor, The doctor did another scan but could not read it properly, after a while
the electricity in the clinic went off so the doctor took me and my mother-in-law to
the hospital and read the scan and informed us that the last scan was wrong and
that I am going to have a boy. Everybody in the house is very happy and so am
I.” Later they had a healthy boy and lived happily with the two kids. Her
husband’s business improved, they made good money and even brought a car.

Baha helps in getting rid of alchoholism
She always saw me pray to Baba and one day she told all her problems to me and
asked me to suggest some pooja. I said on Sunday we have Sai Bhajan and Pooja
at our house bring him, let him take the Prasad and vibhuti. She did as I
suggested.
Soon her husband not only quit drinking, he even started working and gave his
salary to Shakuntala. He saved money for their daughter’s wedding. The next
year only they got their daughter married to a nice boy. Now Shakuntala is a
great devotee of Baba.

Got results on the very first Thursday two times
I am Sandhya Yadav and run a hostel in Indore. My father is a great devotee of Sri
Sai Baba. My sister lives in Badhnagar a town close to Indore. She also is a
devotee of Sri Sai Baba. One day she phoned me and said “Akka, in Indore, Anup
Nagar, Srimathi K. Padmavathi lives. In her house today they are having Baba
Darbar. From there get some books of Baba Divya Pooja and send them to me”
I went to Srimathi K. Padmavathi’s house and attended Baba Darbar. I took some
books about Baba Divya pooja. I send some copies to my little sister living in
Badnagiri. I kept a copy for myself. I vowed to do the pooja for 5 weeks and did
it with a lot of devotion. Every week I would go to Sai Darbar at Anup Nagar.
I got results in the first week itself. My husband had to receive some money that
he could not get for a long time. The first week of my pooja he recovered his
money without any effort. I was very happy to get the result on the first Thursday
of the pooja itself.

By Babas grace the devotee brought a house
In Mansoor, Forest Colony, there is a Sai Mandir. I go often to that Mandir. There
I met a baktha called Sri Anil Tiwari. While discussing other things I mentioned
that our financial state was not that good and I could not buy an own house. He
gave me a small idol of Sri Sai Baba that he got from Shirdi, He also gave me Sri
Sai Divya Pooja book and said, if I pray in the way they described in the book Sri
Sai Baba will surely fulfil my wish. Immediately I vowed to do the pooja for 7
Thursdays.
After 2-3 weeks I met Tiwariji at the temple again. He asked me “Did you start the
divya pooja? I said “Yes, but my wish does not seem like it is being fulfilled.” He
asked me “are you doing it just as described in the book”
I said yes except I am not reading the ashtottharam. He said you need to do the
ashtotram (108 names) with flowers or flower petals. Then Baba will surely fulfil
your wishes.
As he said, I began again and did 7 weeks pooja with devotion following all the
rituals. By the 7th week all our circumstances were good, we got the money we
needed and bought the house we were living in.

Got a job by Babas grace
We were very happy about it. But we did not receive the appointment letter for 6
months everyone else who got selected with him received the letter. I kept telling
Gaurav to have faith in Baba and pray to Sri Sai Baba. One day I told him about
the Divya pooja. I vowed and began 5 weeks of divya pooja. Gaurav too vowed
and began the pooja. After doing the pooja for 4 weeks on December 13th 2005,
Gaurav got his appointment letter and joined the job. In this way before the 5th
week was over itself Gaurav’s wish was fulfilled by Sri Sai Baba.
I am Srimathi Rao and I live in Vaibhav nagar Indore. As soon as I learnt about
Babas Divya pooja I vowed to do 5 weeks. On the second week itself my wish
was fulfilled.

I am Shakunthala sinha from MIG Indore. My son’s name is Neeraj Kumar. For his
wedding I have seen many matches but nothing was getting shortlisted and I have
been really worried about it for a long time. Hearing about Sri Sai Divya Pooja, I
made a vow to do it for 11 Thursdays and started the pooja. Every Thursday Baba
made me do the pooja with all rituals in the right way. Baba showered his
blessings on us and on the 7th Thursday. A perfect bride’s match has come across
and got fixed. Now my son is about to get married and it is truly a Baba’s miracle
and greatness of Sri Sai Divya Pooja.
This is the sixth and the last story of the Divya Pooja
Akhilanda Koti bramahnda Naika Rajadhi Raja Yogi Raja, Parabrahma Shri
Satchidananda Samarth Sadguru Sai Nadh Maharaj Ki Jai.
