In the year 1953, Smt. And Sri Venkatamuni, ardent devotees of Baba, set off on a global journey from Europe to the far East. Travelling by air, they stopped at Paris and planned to spend several weeks there.
On the first day, they decided to change some travellers' cheques and go for shopping. Smt. Venkatamuni was carrying the folder of cheques in her handbag or at least she thought so until she opened the handbag and found they were not there. They both thought that they might have put them in their suitcases and searched in their suitcases but the cheques were not there. They combed through all their belongings till it became painfully obvious that the precious folder was lost. "They had no idea when they had last noticed it before they left Bombay.
It was an unhappy situation in a foreign country at the beginning of a world tour with hardly enough cash to pay their first hotel bill. All they could think of was to seek the help of their beloved Baba. With the few francs they had brought with them, they sent a cable to Baba asking for His help. After that they felt better, knowing that their prayers would be answered.
Two days later, they went window shopping just to pass their time. Smt. Venkatamuni decided to make a list of things she would buy when she had some money. When she opened her handbag to take out the pen and note book, her heart gave a great bound. To her amazement, there, right on top of everything, lay a folder of travellers' cheques which proved to be their own. Since she had searched her handbag many times, emptying everything out on the bed, there was, under the circumstances, no possibility whatsoever that they could have overlooked the folder if it had been in the bag earlier.
They sent another cable to Baba thanking Him for His timely superhuman help.
