Early Days
Born in Larkana, Mata Chaini Bai took birth in Bhambhani family. She was sister of Diwan Rupchand Bhambhani , husband of Adi Ganga. Mata Chaini Bai was married at a young age in Tawarmalani family. Her husband Tulsidas was in Land Revenue Department at Kambar and came close to Sain Jiwat Singh. He passed away at a very young age. He was a great yogi and had indicated the coming of his death and died peacefully in sleep.
Dedication To Kambar Darbar
After death of her husband, Mata Chaini Bai dedicated herself to Sain Jiwat Singh and was totally devoted to Kambar Darbar Sahib .She had surrendered herself completely to the Darbar. She treated Sain Vishindas as her own son and brought him up in the same manner as Mata Yashodha had brought up Krishna. Her selfless sheva of Darbar Sahib's devotees and satsangis is incomparable. She was ever ready to serve the devotees at any time of day or night and was always concerned about their comfort.It was this quality, among many others, which in later years Sain Vishindas adopted and it continues to be the main ethos of Darbar Sahib even today.
Divine Prowess
Mata Chaini Bai gained great spiritual advancement due to her devotion to Sain Jiwatsingh and flawless sheva of devotees coupled, with 'Jaap' of 'Om' and her high purity of thoughts and deeds. She attained divine powers and helped in alleviating agony of many devotees. She had the vision to look into future. One of the young devotees an Engeering Student,had booked his train ticket to return to his place of residence (Secunderabad), when he had come to Kandivli Darbar during holidays. Mata Chaini Bai told him to stay back for one day more, which he agreed immediately due to his faith in her. When he went back to Secunderabad he came to know that the train from Bombay which left on the earlier day had met with a serious accident due to derailment and a number of people had died in that accident. Thus, she avoided the trouble for the young devotee. There are many such narrations of her divine powers
End of an Era
Mata Chaini Bai continued to stay at Kambar Darbar in Pakistan after partition. She said she will not go to India unless the Samadhis were shifted to India. She was willing to face any consequences. She left Kambar only when she was assured by Vali Vilayatrai's great grandson (Dada Kishinchand) that the Samadhis were being taken to India. She was weeping even after reaching India until the containers having the Ashes of the Gurus were actually given to her. This was her devotion to her Gurus. She stayed at Kambar Darbar , at Kandivili, till her end. Mata Chaini Bai left for Nijdham in 1966 at the age of 95, after she had prepared Dadi Gopi ,to take on the spiritual responsibilities at Darbar Sahib.
