Guest guest Posted August 20, 2005 Report Share Posted August 20, 2005 Jai Sai Ram World ! Does anyone out there know of a lady called Lakshmi Ma? She resides in a small village about 4 hrs drive North ,northwest of Puttaparthi. I went with a group of 12 people late December 2004. In her pooja room amrith oozes out of Sri Bhagawan Shirdi Sais Picture and vibhutti (alot) manifests out of Avatar Bhagawan Sri Sathya Sai Babas picture.We all had some very interesting experiences ,manifestations .This lady seemed to be an instrument of love from Bhagawan,and all I felt was love.I guess my question is,someone told me Bhagawan operates through NO ONE else,could anyone enlighten me on this or this loving lady called LAKSHMI MA! thank you JAI SAI RAM. david wilson.

Guest guest Posted August 21, 2005 Report Share Posted August 21, 2005 I'd just like to say to David that Bhagawan does not operate through these dear ones so much as they become full to the brim with Him and then they brim over in the same way the rivers and streams are full when the water table is high. When the heart of the devotee brims over evidences brim over also. When we come in contact with hearts that are brimming over our own hearts respond by needing to brim over too. This is how I understand these things. I don't know of this lady in particular but this sounds likely to be true of her.

Thank you Sarah! in sai...mirasai ---------- Chandrakant Amin <cgamin Sun Aug 21, 2005 4:22pm Re: Re: Lakshmi Ma Sai ram. Bhagwan has repeatedly warned His devotees that He doesnot operate through any body. There is heart to heart contact. That is to say no intermediatory between Swami and His Bhaktas. One should not be guided by such claims from any body. I would go to such an extent and say WHY DO WE NEED SOME ONE ELSE THAN SWAMI HIMSELF WHO IS ONLY OUR PROTECTOR. Have strong faith in Swami himself and leave everything aside and let us live our life. Sai Ram. Chandra amin ---------- "David Wilson" <kungo54 Sun Aug 21, 2005 7:45pm Re: Re: Lakshmi Ma SAI RAM, Thank you Sarah.All I know is that Bhagawan Sri Sathya Sai Baba is GOD and I LOVE HIM! In 2000 i worked on a charter vessel as a deckhand,we had 9 guests on board .The captain misjudged his calculations,we hit some submerged rocks at 20knots and sunk in 4mns.I was the only one injured,3 broken ribs,collapsed lung,in alot of pain sitting in a life raft miles from land.We were rescued shortly afterwards as the captain had sent a "Mayday Mayday" radio signal out.I was chanting Sai Ram,Sai Ram with what little air I could expell from one lung. I smiled when I saw a very small fishing vessels lights appearing over the horizon,closed my eyes and whispered "thank you Bhagawan" We had to start heading to an island as a helicopter could not extract me off this craft as the wind was sceaming at 25knots with white cap waves smashing into us.The pain was so great i was going into shock,but I could always feel Bhagawans presence,never did i feel scared because HE reassured me all the time.It took over 1 hour of smashing into waves to get into the leeward side of this small island,every wave we smashed into (over 300) sent sharp stabbing pain throughout my body.I was just whimpering and whispering "swami,swami"with every impact.We finally made it! the passangers helped me to shore to be lovingly greeted by a sheep farmer and his wife. They carefully took my life jacket off and kindly placed a blanket around my cold wet body.The rescue helicopter landed sending small shells flying everywhere like shrapnell,the farmer and his wife surrounded me to protect me and husteld me out of harms way.I finally was inside the helicopter and on my way to Auckland hospital.I was in hospital for a week,then went to go home to recover.The most i could sleep was 10mns every few hours,the pain was so severe even with very strong pain relief. After two weeks of very little sleep i had to go to my dentist to get a wisdom tooth extracted.Sitting in a dentist chair in alot of pain from 3 broken ribs and getting this tooth ripped out was really something.I just kept whimpering "swami,swaaammi".Tooth out,i went home.Now heres the amazing part of this whole drama.I got home and sat in my bed in agony,pain in my mouth,pain all through my chest,i tryed to be brave,couldnt take any more and just started crying my eyes out ,i hadnt cried for a long,long time...it felt like i was crying the pain of a thousand life times....THEN i heard this noise, i looked up through my tear fulled eyes,my jaw dropped,my eyes widend my curtains had changed into a waterfall,the water parted,there was Bhagawan Si Sathya Sai Baba,orange robe, mass of hair,smiling BEAUTIFUL face...i sat up more,amazed,oblivious to any pain,...he came over beside my bed craddled my head in his arms ,lovingly stroked my head and said, "Its ok now Swami is here"he very softly said "go to sleep,Swami will always look after you" i closed my eyes like a little baby and slept for 8 hrs. It was the best sleep i have ever had! I awoke ,my whole room smelt of jasmine,i just lay there in bliss,so grateful that he helped me in my hour of need.I had only known of Bhagawan for one year,as soon as i prayed to him the first time he manifested that jasmine aroma all around me,and again the next day! I had to go to Prashanti Niliyam to thank him,and boy was that a trip! I will finish with this..if you are in pain ,hurting so bad,you just want to give up,call out to our dearest Bhagawan Sri Sathya Sai Baba with ALL your HEART! HE LOVES YOU!! i cry BHAKTI tears now just thinking of this DEVINE PRESENCE. Call HIM, and watch as the miracle unfolds.Thank you Bhagawan! much LOVE to EVERYOME.AUM SAI RAM... david. ---------- "David Wilson" <kungo54 Sun Aug 21, 2005 10:13pm Fw: Lakshmi Ma Jai Sai Ram Nayanika! Thankyou ever so much! I would be so grateful if you could tell me how to get there as i would not have a clue how to get to her place or who to ask. She is so lovely i would love to visit her again next time i come to India. I wrote a letter to Bhagawan for permission to come and recieve his Holy Darshan.My friend took the letter to Bhagawan last month and He took it,so I am praying to see our Beautiful Lord this Christmas. Thanks Brother Nayanika! Aum Sai Ram David Wilson - nayanika jayaram romanyuk Monday, August 22, 2005 1:13 PM Re: Lakshmi Ma Sairam brother David Wilson Jai Sai Ram Yes i know of her. Have been to Amma from prashanti . Brother when i was in parthy and residing in prashanti every thought of our dear Bhagwan gave answers...in one of them Bhagwan baba clearly said that each and every one of us has glimpses and flashes , visitations interviews inner views dreams which are meant to make the fraternity of Sai the family of Sai vibrate with the resonance of a virtuosu and a melody of the Gods...this sharing and the kinship is extremely important seva which is the mark of a true sadhaka.... Those whose house the idols ooze vibhuti honey and give aural messages need these visual assurances for keeping them on track as Bhagwan says every atma is precious and each and every soul is a jewel to our dear Bhagwan....he plays different melodies with different variations on each of us...we are different flutes for our dear dear Krishna Bhagwan , our only Bhagwan Shri Satyasai Baba.... Bask and take ananda with each and every experience and feel the oneness and make it the waft and the weir of your inner fabric . brother Wilson Sairam LOKASAMASTHA SUKHINO BHAVANTHU nayanika ---------- Balraj Goulikar <gbalraj Mon Aug 22, 2005 6:28am Re: Re: Lakshmi Ma With all due respect to every ther being, as far as possible i always go to puttaparti with one pointedness . not looking for any other guru or support.. Though i feel bad when swami doesnt give proper darshan or he doesnt come. We could say that swami would work thru them or HE makes some people their instruments. But it is always best to take HIM as the instrument only. Though people may get attracted towards other great people, but in front of GOD , who can stand? what is the need for anybod else, however great he/she may be? why to divert anywhere else? its like in the after noon SUN also , some people try to read with a candle ! ! ! is anything else required after u take the darshan? that energy itself canot be digested completely by us. as it get dissipated when we start talking and doing other things. Instead of going 4 hours from puttaparti to some other place, i would better take one more darshan of the lord. ---------- "dinkar suri" <dinkarsuri Mon Aug 22, 2005 9:48am RE: Lakshmi Ma Dear David, Sai Ram. There are many such persons in Sai'sfold where Vibhuti and other Sai icons manifest themselves. This is due to the good Karma of the concerned individual and thier association with Swami which only He knows. Baba always operates directly and has no agents. Therefore, as long as the concerned individuals do not claim that they have Swami's permission to pass on messages to them or guide them on a particular path, it is OK. I have also been in touch with both kind of individuals - correct and incorrect extrapolation of Bab's miracles. So I talk from experience. Ultimately, SAI will guide you. Hope this is helpful.
