Nileema Tai

Whenever the Supreme Godhead descends on earth he brings with him other divine souls who are very dear to him and are verily his own images. They accompany the Lord in his every incarnation. If we keenly look at the past incarnations this will be clear to us. These divine souls who are later worshipped as Gods are quite instrumental in the fulfillment of Lord's mission. Their earthly relationship to the Lord during every incarnation has been different as per the desire of the Lord. Poojya Nileema Taai is such manifestation of the Lord's Power. This humble devotee,when once expressed his desire to visit Mahore for Devi Darshan, Dadaji said, " Taai is Bhavani " .





Poojya Nileema Taai is born in a noble middle class family of 5 sisters and one brother. Father is Sri.Dada Palsodkar and Mother Smt. Usha Taai. The sisters are Lata, Sandhya, Meena, Jyothi and brother is Sanjay. The parents both were extremely righteous and pious. The atmosphere in the house used to be one filled with devotion and love. Right from the days of early childhood Taai used to worship Lord Shiva. Even though she used to play simple games with sisters and others and used to enjoy like any other girl at that time, when alone she always used to be lost in the divine thoughts of the Lord and devotion. Whenever she saw the images of Radha and Krishna, she used to wonder about becoming Radha herself. When in school Taai's favorite subject was 'Marathi'. Due to her interest in the subject and by application she became very proficient in Marathi which came very handy later when she started writing Abhangs and Bhajans. Taai had the blissful sight of Lord Adaneshwar in the year of 1969 when Dadaji visited their house one afternoon unexpectedly. As it was destined, the whole family was immersed in Sadguru devotion since then. By then Dadaji had already left Macchisath math and used to be on the road frequently to bless devotees from near and far off places. Dada's family used eagerly wait for the return of Dadaji. Whenever Dadaji used to visit the house the whole house used to come alive with joy, love and devotion. Whenever Dadaji used to be away they all seemed lost and used to pray and wait eagerly for Dadaji's early return. That is when they started getting the taste of divine love which Gopis used to experience for Lord Krishna. Dada, Kaku and others started urging Dadaji to stay with them so that can have the benefit of Dadaji's company and also other devotees would find it convenient to visit Dadaji at a fixed place. This was all the marvel of the Lord and Dadaji stayed in their residence since then. In the year 1971 when Amravaati Samsthan came in to existence, Dada also constructed a modest house in Yashodanagar, right next to Samsthan. Dadaji along with Dada's family used to live there. Dadaji's bed and other belongings are still in place for the devotees to visit.

Poojya Taai sacrificed her life for the Lord and has Lived with Almighty Master-Divine Dadaji from 1972. She always used to be in the service of Dadaji. Taai used to accompany Dadaji when Dadaji used visit other towns/cities/villages/hamlets to bless his devotees. Apart from taking care of the pooja, Aarti and other arrangements of worship, Taai also used to explain about the glory of the Lord and the ways and means to practice Sadguru devotion. She is always very compassionate to the devotees and guides them through to the high road of Sadguru devotion. Whenever Dadaji used to take the various Bhogas and diseases of the devotees upon him self, Taai used to nurse and care for Dadaji. In December, 1986, Dadaji visited Adilabad for the last time. During that trip Dadaji gave many hints about Dadaji's imminent departure. On one morning, devotees were standing in front of Dadaji. The morning Aarti was over and Dadaji just had the morning Tea along with devotees. At that time Dadaji said, I am getting tired of traveling now and will soon stop traveling. Then this humble devotee said But Dadaji, you will have to travel to Adilabad for next 27 years '. ( Dadaji's age was 73 years at that time ). Then Dadaji said, I will not be traveling , but Taai will be coming to Adilabad. This certainly was an indication of things to come. Probably it was the wish of Dadaji that the things took the turn they took and in the year of 1997, on 21st Feb Niloma Adaneshwar Samthan came in to existence. The fortunate seekers who want to visit Taai may do so by attending the full moon ceremony at the Sevashram.
