Aum Sai Ram

[Guest guest]

: In those days Swami used to come and stay with us in Bangalore. For many

years in my childhood He was a wonderful uncle for me. He used to talk with

elders in the evening but also had a special time for us children where he used

to tell us either stories, or play some games with us. Even though He would

play games with us, He used to teach us lessons in His own way. One of the

games He would always play with us was Snakes and Ladders. We children would

say, "Swami we don't want to play this game with You, as You always win."

The dice would roll the number He wanted. Then He would say, "No, no I will

play like you." Then He would be behind for some time losing and suddenly He

would be again right at the top and then say, "Look at you useless people –

You don't even know how to play Snakes and Ladders! This is how life is,

full of snakes and ladders. Sometimes you go up and sometimes you come down,

but your goal is to reach 100 - divinity. To do that you have to face both

snakes and ladders, at the same time you have your set of dice in the hands of

GOD. He will take you across in a boat." Aum Sai Ram, My pranam at the

feet of BABA. Yes rightly said in the above message ' this is how life is, full

of snakes and ladders. Sometimes you go up and

sometimes you come down,------------. He will take you across in a boat.' Sri

Satya Sai Baba has been with me at my table side since June 2000, at my work

place, he has been watching me, my actions, my deeds and the turbulance, pain,

and low self esteem through out this period. I have been at the receiving end

through out this period. I think this period can be termed as the period you

come down now I am waiting for the perid when "you go up". I have surrendered

at the feet of BABA to take my boat across." He takes you through rigorous

examinations. Now I feel its time for me to come with flying colours. Someone

said that its due to ill-effects of the planetary movements, but BABA is here

and there to protect us from the said ill-effects if any. MAY I FEEL THE

UNIVERSALITY AND

OMNIPRESENCENESS OF THE BABA. With regards
