One interesting incident involving Super natural powers 

of Samartha Ramdass --

In Kashi,there was a very highly learned Pandit by name
Sadashiva Shasthri. He was full of Ego about his 
knowledge,was thinking nobody is there who is as learned 
as him.

 He wanted to go to different places, debate with other 
pundits & to defeat them.If he looses, he has decided to cut 
his tongue. 

He came to know that there is a Pundit in Shivaji's ministers 
called Gaga Bhatta,with whom he wanted to debate. He met
Shivaji Maharaj & told about his wish. Shivaji told him to 
come next day to the palace. In the mean time Gaga Bhatta 
met Sadashiva Shastri & told him he was under the mercy 
of Shivaji Maharaj & hence it is better to debate with  
Guru Samartha Ramadass. Sadashiva Shastri liked the 
idea.

Next day Shastri attended King's audience & told Shivaji 
that he wanted to debate with Guru Ramadass. Shivaji
advised him that his guru is not of debating type, he is
practical demonstrating type,hence please drop your idea.
Shastri didn't listen to Shivaji.

Then Shivaji,Gaga Bhatta and Shastri went to Guru 
Ramadass at Chaphala. All prostrated to Ramadass
except Shastri.

Guru Ramadass called one poor,low cast firewood 
seller and asked him "who are you ?" He said," I am a 
firewood seller & deliver to Rama Mandir, I am a Shudra"

Guru Ramadass called his disciple Kalyan & told him to 
draw a line in front of firewood seller using a stick. Kalyan 
did so, then Ramadass asked firewood seller to cross the 
line, step forward & asked "Who are you ?" He answered,
"I am a Vaishya now". Guru asked Kalyan to draw another 
line in front & asked"Who are you ?" He answered," I am
a Kshatriya". Same way after drawing another line, he 
became a Brahmin. Now his body was shining with an 
aura of knowledge on the face.Transformed Brahmin told
Ramadass," I am well versed in ten scriptures,with whom 
shall I debate now ?"

Guru Ramadass told him to debate with Sadashiva 
Shastri. In the debate transformed Brahmin defeated 
Sadashiva Shastri three times. When Shastri was ready 
to cut his tongue Guru Ramadass told him not to cut
and advised him not to be egoistic in future.  

Sadashiva Shastri understood his mistake & prostrated
to Guru Ramadass.

Transformed Brahmin requested Ramadass to liberate 
him.In the previous birth firewood seller was a Gandharva
by name Chitra Ratha. Due to the curse of Narada Muni
he had to take birth in this world in a low caste.Guru 
Ramadass freed him from the curse, then he went back to 
Gandharva Loka as Chithra Ratha. All people understood
the greatness of Guru Samartha Ramadass !!
