―You speak true. You become Valiraam‖. Immediately, Panditji also became imbibed
with the same carefree state of Baabaa Vasaali. Thereafter he became known as
―Valiraam‖.
Reading just three to four verses (sher) from Baabaa Vasaali‘s written narrative
―Maamukimaa‖, Valiraam became proficient with Farsi and Arabic languages. Beloved
people even to this day look upon with great adoration Valiraam‘s volume ―Diwaane
Valiraam‖.
Both the love crazy diving into the ocean of ecstacy ended their mortal beings.
There were many other glorious incidents within the life of Baabaa Vasaali. Eventually,
that singly devoted Raam devotee saint truly rested at feet of his worshipful Sri
Raamchandraji.
To this day there resides under the tree of bordi, his shrine in Pramodvan.
[20] Sai Din-darvesh
The great influential and carefree devotional singer saint Sai-din-darvesh‘s name is very
well known in north Gujarat. Not only that, but in the north Maarwaad and Mevaad his
reputation has spread.
In his construction of unadulterated saintly sayings are said to include 125 thousand
Kundalias. The life history of the venerable saint includes numerous glorious events.
From those, how he became fond of Sri Raam, will relate a little of the happening :
Once he was in meditation at his residence in Paalanpur. There was nome other present at
the time. It was mid-day. Serenity was spread in the environment.. the saint was fully
imersed in contemplation. At that time a monkey was jumping about calling out the
name of ―Raam‖. His actions were directed to wake up the saint from his meditation. So
in the proximity of the saint, running about he was calling a chant of ―Raam‖.
Due to the commotion, the saint awakened. Looking around he saw the monkey jumping
about chanting the name of ―Raam‖. The saint was astonished. The fearless monkey
continued jumping about chanting the rosary of ―Raam‖.
Having never before observed or heard before , the event was extraordinary. The wise
saint immediately recognised the true form of the monkey. Observing so, the saint said a
kundalio:
Abuz sai jaane kahaan, Vir Vajrang ko naam
Piyaraa nikat aay ke, Aap jape Sri Raam
Aaap jape Sri Ram, Naamaki lagani laagi
Raam kathaa anuraag, sunat bhaye bad-bhaagi
