Baba serves, saves January 25, 2006The recent articles and letters on

Sai Baba miracles have prompted many of your readers to share their viewpoints

on scriptures, miracles and manifestations, and which God to revere and

worship.

In a country as diverse as ours, maybe a simple lesson can be learnt from India,

ie, religious tolerance. Even Christianity and Islam flourishes in this holy

land. But, it is sad that the many people who have been criticising Sai Baba

and his miracles recently are evidently ignorant about him or his teachings. As

a divine teacher his message to the world is to realise and recognise your own

divinity and to raise your level of Godconsciousness. Focus on true and eternal

happenings and not on the tinsel trappings of this illusionary existence. If

Hindu, become a better Hindu, if Muslim, become a better Muslim and if

Christian, become a better Christian. Sai has not come to convert anyone.Many

of his followers of the different faiths, including the West, recognise

individual transformation as Sai's greatest miracle. The ash and honey miracles

in homes are for the benefit of those families that need renewed hope and faith

in God, and

to understand that the Creator is omnipresent as much as he is omniscient and

omnipotent. Like previous divine incarnations, Jesus, Rama, and Buddha, his

mission is to serve and save mankind, and not interfere with the laws of

nature, by preventing floods, quakes, and tsunamis. The many hundred poor

villages, and their millions of inhabitants, have benefited from Sai through his

generosity in educational, medical, transportational, feeding, sheltering and

clothing, and water projects. Where the government of India found it impossible

to supply tap water, Sai came to the rescue. Many orphaned

children are under his care, each with their own bank accounts of one lakh

rupees for their future use.On Sai's request, the Super Speciality Hospital,

which serves the entire nation free of charge, has not been entered in the

Guiness Book of Records, since this state-of-the-art hospital was built and

running within five months, some 15 years ago. His education in human values

system is now being incorporated in Arabian states, in Africa, China and the

West. In his mercy, truckloads of food, clothing, medicines and tents, with

doctors, nurses and assistants, were sent to provide relief to quake and

tsunami victims.This is the Bhagawan I know and have been worshipping for the

past 17 years. I have also visited his many places of miracles and am always

fascinated by them. I am now also learning to focus more on the Creator and

less on his creations. Jai sai ram. Dev SewpersadNewcastle ©2006 Post &
