The very first saint who served at Raherki Sahib was saint Sai Khotaram Sahib. Saint Sai Khotaram Sahib was a holy man. He had spiritual powers and was adored by the people all over the Sind. He always served poor and needy people. He sang Gurbani in a very beautiful touching way. When he sang Gurbani people sat absorbed.
Once Sai Jan came to know that the famine had hit many a villages in Sind. Many a people, farmers as well as the Zamindars came to Sai Jan for his blessings.
Sai Jan called upon all the Panchayats and made an appeal to all the Zamindars that since there was lot of food shortage out of total crop of 24 tons per head each Zamindar should bring 5 kgs for the poor & needy people. One of the Zamindar Surajmal said that in this situation of famine it was not possible to take this responsibility and they went away.
Next morning all of them that means all the Zamindars returned back and fell on the feet of Sai Khotaram and pleaded for mercy. When Sai Jan asked them what happened they said that since they refused to do what Sai Jan told them they were not able to sleep. They at night in their dream saw snakes and evil powers who were telling them that they will kill them and after that they got scared and wanted Sai Jan to forgive them for not obeying to Sai Jan’s order. On listening to this Sai Jan said that those who repent and understand their mistakes are not punished by the God as he is the greatest of all.
