Back to Pune & Daily routine

Due to the deteriorating financial condition, Shree Beedkar Maharaj was indirectly benefited in a big way, as all his relatives as well as his friends, stopped visiting his house and Shree Beedkar Maharaj could calmly concentrate on deep meditation .

His daily routine was to sleep after 11.p.m. at night and not to come out of the room till 11.a.m. in the morning. He was following this routine very strictly since he did not want any hindrance in his deep meditation. The wife of Shree Beedkar Maharaj, though, she was affectionate, straightforward, frank and generous, was stubborn with desire for riches. Because of her constant teasing nature, he got so much disturbed that he finally sold his own house, to maintain his family.

As Shree Beedkar Maharaj used to get himself absorbed in deep meditation day and night, his wife was getting very angry about him, on account of the shortage of money in the house. His wife Smt. Janakibai (Aaisaheb) did not come to know about the greatness of her husband till her death, as she could not realize the true identity of Shree Beedkar Maharaj.

Shree Beedkar Maharaj, who was always busy enjoying Supreme bliss, did not like that his unsought conduct should burden other people. So he decided to make at least one trip in a year for selling perfumes. He used to start on Kojagiri47, full moon day, for selling his perfumes and return home only on Narak Chaturdashi48 day. He did this business till 1896, purely for shouldering family responsibility. But that year a miracle took place. The empty perfume bottles kept in the box, were found to be spontaneously filled up with perfume. It was a great miracle, and he thought “He who fills my bottles with perfume, would he neglect me even if I sit at home?” With this thought from that day onwards, Shree Beedkar Maharaj decided to stop his business.
