[Guest guest]

hello there

first of all please dont hesitate to ask your doubts and to

get a clarification from any sai devotees. before i try to answer

your question i myself am an amateur and a sai devotee in her

infancy. but on consultation with a good friend of mine im posting

our thoughts on the issue.

 

ok first of all about the tooth of SaiNathMaharaj being kept

in Pune.Personally i feel there is nothing wrong in it. We humans

have a tendency to want to see things SaiNath Maharaj in his

lifetime had touched or had some form of contact with.Which is why

Dwarakamai is so holy -----first because it has been his abode

constantly for such a long period. Dont you get a nice feeling when

you go and touch the walls and the platform on which Sai Nath used

to sit?,There are so many articles kept there which have been so

blessed to be in some form of contact with him, like the grinding

wheel etc.Also SaiNath Maharaj in his lifetime had given Padukas to

a few devotees, his Satka ,his Kafni to another person and so on.My

mom on a previous visit had been to Shirdi and was able to see a few

of these articles. I feel we are all blessed when we touch an

article that was touched by Baba,what to say of the TOOTH of the

LORD OF THE UNIVERSE???? So really I feel these are just a way of

blessing people like us who have not been fortunate enough to meet

Sai before his MahaSamadhi by enabling us to have some contact with

things of HIS. Even now the Shirdi museum has a KAFNI worn by BABA

and the feeling we get on seeing it is not describable in words.

 

 

As for your query about naming a Hindu child with a

muslim name ie Daulat Shah. As the article says SaiNath might have

done this to bridge the barrier between Hindu and Muslim.Actually

many people feel that one of the major reasons why God took an avtar

in the form of SAI is to reduce the religious or communal clashes

between the Hindus and Muslims and to enable us to see beyong such

differences which dont matter. For that matter "SAI" means saint in

Persian so are we thinking SAINATH IS persian? Hardly!!!!!

 

 

So like a saying which says a rose is as sweet by any

other name, the name doesnt really matter.Also we all have to

overlook the differences in religion caste creed etc.SaiNath has

done a lot for us to see over these petty differences.There is God

in all of us,each and every one.Sai has himself said that when Allah

and Ram are the same, why are the people on earth fighting over

petty issues on the name of religion?All religions ultimately lead

to the Almighty who himself has a muslim name a christian name ,many

hindu names etc etc. So no problem in a hindu boy having a muslim

name.

 

 

As for Daulat Shah,personally i feel he is extremely

lucky to first have his birth and name blessed by none other Than

Sai Nath and then to have had THE LORD OF THE UNIVERSE hold his hand

and make him write 'HARI". So we can see how lucky he was and how

SAI has done so much for him.

 

 

I hope i was able to clarify ur doubts on the issue.

 

MAY SAI BLESS US ALL.
