- Sai Baba - Sri Maha Vishnu’s tenth incarnation is that of Kalki. He will be

born towards the end of the Kali age, the age replete with all kind of vice and

godlessness. Dharma will limp only on one foot. Even that will gradually vanish.

At this time Sri Maha Vishnu will incarnate in the world as Kalki Deva, assuming

black complexion. The wicked will perish and Dharma will regain its supremacy

ushering in a new age. (Predicted by Sri Pandrimalai Swamigal : taken from the

book Dasavatara, by Shri S. Ramakrishna, Bharathi Vidya Bhavan). - Dr.

E.V.Sastri, a prominent member of the Indian Astro Occult Research Association,

New Delhi, during the course of his research, found out ‘Nandi Grantham’

available in Tamil Nadu, which had all the indications about Sathya Sai Baba’s

horoscope written by a famous erudite Pundit, some five hundred years ago. It

was written on a piece of palm leaf of the size 36 centimeters long and 2 ½ cms

broad. It reads : ‘The person to whom this horoscope relates and whose name is

Sathyanarayana Raju will renounce the world in his boyhood, will start schools

and hospitals, will publish books for the upliftment of the World, will spend

every day of his whole lifetime for the establishment of Dharma, which is his

ideal and objective’. It is further mentioned that, “He will be an Avatar

amongst the Avatars”. (Taken from the book ‘The Grace of Sai’ by R.Lowenberg).

- The advent of this Avatar Bhagavan Sri Sathya Sai Baba was uniquely

prophesied not only in some ancient books of Indian origin but also in books of

other lands and religions. It is found that Baba’s horoscope has been extolled

in the Indian palmyra “Nadi” scrolls of hundreds of years antiquity, containing

prophesies by celebrated sages like Agastha, Brahma, Bhrigu, Buddha, Shuka and

Shukra. Since there is said to be remarkable accord amongst the different Nadis

interpreted by different and independent readers, we can confidently ascribe

genuineness and credibility to those Nadi predictions. The following are the

highlights of the prophesies contained in the Nadi scrolls as mentioned in Sai

literature by various authors: · He will be a great incarnation of the Godhead

Vishnu, Shirdi Sai and several other Gods and Goddesses and will have all

powers of God. · He will be born for protecting and propagating Dharma

(righteousness) and he will have a mission to fulfil. · He will have healing

powers and the power to cure himself by sprinkling water. He will use his

healing powers not only for the people of this world, but also for the beings

of the other worlds and on the higher planes of existence.(Devas, i.e.

celestial gods and goddesses). At times He will take on the illness of the

others. · He will have power to extend the life of deserving persons. When the

Kali yuga influence grows even more intense, people will see His true might and

will acknowledge that He is the Supreme Power. Then mankind will bow to him as a

great Emperor and He will be revered as the greatest living being, MAHAPURUSHA,

in the world. · Sri Sathya Sai Baba will perform great miracles. · He will also

retain youthful look, age notwithstanding. · He will be Brahmachari. He will

establish Ashrams, educational and medical institutions. · He will have equal

attitude towards all men and women. His glory will spread and many people will

get near him. But all cannot have His grace due to past sins. · He will be

PREMASWAROOPA, ANANDASWAROOPA, AND JNANASWAROOPA. (Personification of Love,

Bliss and Wisdom) · He will show Himself in many places simultaneously, though

He will actually be in one place and there will be many divine acts and

manifestations. · He will have the power to die whenever He wants. (d) In an

ancient Arabic book by name “Mehdi Moud” in which the prophesies made by

Prophet Mohammed were recorded many centuries ago, it was mentioned that God

Himself would descend on earth in human form with the following signs by which

He could be recognised: “His hair will be profuse. His front teeth will be

spaced apart. He will have a mole on His cheek. He will not have beard but will

be clean shaven. His clothing will be like flame. He will wear two robes. The

colour of His face will sometimes be like copper, sometimes yellow like gold

and sometimes like the moon. His legs will be those of a young girl. All the

teachings of all the religions of the world will be in His heart from birth.

All the science and knowledge of the world from the beginning of time will be

in His head. He will give gifts that are light in weight, His devotees will

crane their necks to see Him. He will live for 95 years on earth. In the last

twenty years of His life time He will be the king of the whole world but at

that time (A.D. 2000) only two-thirds of the world will believe Him. Muslims

will only recognise Him nine years before His passing away from the world”. (e)

According to the world famous prophecy-maker Nostradamus who recorded his

prophecies in his book “Centuries”, some 400 years ago, a very great leader

would be born in South India (land surrounded by the three seas) He would have

unlimited wisdom and power, and He would be an immortal ruler. With His

efforts, world war would be over, and India’s spiritual message to humanity

would spread far and wide. He would observe Thursday as the Holy Day. (f) Sri

Aurobindo, the great seer of modern India, who was in total penance for the

descent of the Supernatural Power upon this Earth for the uplift of humanity,

terminated his outside activities and went into complete solitude on 24th

November, 1926. His reason for the withdrawal was that the embodiment of the

Overmental Delight Consciousness, Lord Krishna, had once again come down to the

terrestrial sphere. Suffice it to note that the advent of the Lord of our

narrative had occurred just on the preceding day. (Bhagavan Sri Sathya Sai Baba

is born on 23rd November, 1926) (g) Bhagavan Baba has also overwhelmed the

Christian world by declaring that it was He who sent Christ to the world, and

that His incarnation had, indeed been prophesied by Christ and recorded in the

Bible over 1,900 years ago. The extract of that startling revelation made by

Sri Sathya Sai Baba before a group of Christians on the Christmas Day in 1975

is given below: “There is one point that I cannot but bring to your special

notice today. At the time when Jesus was merging in the supreme principle of

divinity, he communicated some news to his followers which has been interpreted

in a variety of ways by commentators and those who relish the writings on

writings and meaning upon meaning, until it is all swelled up into a huge mess.

The statement itself has been manipulated and tangled in a conundrum. The

statement is simple : “He who sent me among you, will come again”, and he

pointed to a lamb. The lamb is, merely a symbol, a sign. It stands for the

voice ‘Ba-Ba’; the announcement was of the advent of Baba. ‘His name will be

truth’. Christ declared. ‘Sathya means Truth’. ‘He wears a robe of red, a blood

red robe’. (Here Baba pointed to the robe He was wearing). ‘He will be short,

with crown (of hair)’. The lamb is the sign and symbol of love. Christ did not

declare that He would come again, He said ‘He who sent me will come again’.

That Ba-Ba is this Baba’. ( pointing to Himself)”. (The matter contained in

paras from (c ) to (g) is taken from the book ‘Uniqueness of Swami And His

Teachings’ by Dr. A.Adivi Reddy.) (h) In the Bible Revelation 19 speaks of the

God incarnate having come on a white horse which coincidentally is also the

description of the Kalki Avatara predicted by the Hindu scriptures several

thousands years ago. “ Its rider is called Faithful and True.” Sathya, the

first name of Baba means Truth. “His eyes were like a flame of fire”. Baba’s

eyes have such an intensity, are so full of life and seem to indicate with

dazzling glow. “He wore many crowns on his head”. Baba’s Afro style hair gives

it the appearance of a crown. “The robe he wore was covered with blood”,

alludes to ochre robe that Baba wears. “His name is the word of God” is

incidentally the meaning of Bhagavan. (i) An article published in the November,

1985 issue of “Expans” magazine reported thus: Among the various prophesies made

in ancient scriptures of world, and those by sages and seers as contained in

palm leaf volumes carefully preserved by Sanskrit Scholars, none appears to be

so amazing as the detailed account of the advent of Sai Baba, as an incarnation

of God in 20th century as reported to have been given by Prophet Mohammed.

According to the article published in “Two Worlds” magazine of London, an

Iranian writer, browsing, in a book stall in Teheran, was irresistibly drawn to

a huge volume. It was the 14th edition of the discourses of Mohammed, in 25

volumes “The Ocean Of Light” . It is claimed that these discourses were

collected together some seven hundred years after the prophet’s death. Volume

13 of these discourses is called “ Mehdi Moud” in Arabic, which means “The

Great Teacher that was promised”. The teacher is also referred to as “Master of

the World”, “Master of Time” ..etc., Mohammed is quoted by Peggy Mason as having

indicated a large number of signs by which the great teacher could be

recognised. Prominent amongst these hallmarks, which remarkably tally with Sai

Baba, are as follows: All things you will ask from God, He will give you. All

the treasures of the world are under His feet. He will give gifts that are

light in weight. His devotees will collect under a great tree ( the huge Banyan

tree, that has been since removed in Brindavan campus). Many of them will have a

spot on their forehead (the Hindu Kumkum dot). He will go around amongst the

devotees and touch their heads with His hand. Every eye that sees Him will be

happy, not only humans but disembodied souls. His devotees will crane their

necks to see Him. He will live for 95 years. He will live at hill (Prasanthi

Nilayam is on a hill). His house will be square. He will make the world light

and full of peace. So as not to be deceived, you should know that the Master of

the World will bring things out of His body and through His mouth. Sri Sathya

Sai Baba has assured us that there is no reason for mankind to be extremely

worried about the future, for the golden age of humanity is soon dawning. He

has assured that Satya Yuga shall start from 1999 and during the days of His

next Avatar as Prema Sai which will be from 2030 onwards, the world will see

the best period of human civilisation. However, Baba says from now till 1999

there will be many natural calamities, but He will exercise His powers and

influence as Avatar to prevent Nuclear War. He has told His devotees not to get

out of the umbrella of His Divine Protective Grace lest they be subjected to

harm at the hands of nature’s fury which will indeed be raging till 1999. (The

matter contained in paras (h) and (I) above, has been taken from the book

“Pralaya 1999”, by M. R. Narendra). The author has mentioned in the beginning

of this chapter about the characteristics (Signs) of an Avatar. Let us delve

more on this: The story of Sri Krishna, universally accepted as Poorna Avatar -

the Total Advent - is the clearest proof of the immaculate conception of the

Divine Child. As the Bhagavatha narrates, the agony of Mother Earth compels the

compassions of the Omniwill into the resolve to incarnate as Sustainer, Solace

and Saviour of mankind. Brahma hears the voice of the all pervasive God Vishnu

that conveys the blessing and the boon to the suffering supplicants who have

come before Him. He announces: “The Bhagavan Himself, the Almighty Resident in

All, moved by His own Will , takes birth in the house of Vasudeva” (Vasudeva

“Griha”). After Devaki, the consort of Vasudeva, had given birth to seven

children and had offered each one of them to her brother as she had promised,

the Will decided that it was time for the Advent to take place. The Bhagavatha

says : “The Lord who is the Sovereign of the Universe desired to enter the mind

of Vasudeva as a facet of Himself in order to confer fearlessness on good and

Godly”. ‘Amsa’ , the Sanskrit word used in the text rendered here as ‘facet’,

is usually interpreted as meaning ‘part’. But the Universal Absolute cannot be

partitioned; the ancient commentator Anandagiri elucidates the word as ‘Svechha

nirmithena maayaamayena Swaroopena’ (with a body moulded by His own Will and

capable of deluding the World into the belief that it is human). “Then, that

indestructible Divine principle which was destined to establish peace and

prosperity in the World, was accepted into her mind, as the Eastern sky accepts

the moon or as the pupil receives the illuminating mantra from the guru” . The

emphasis on the ‘Mana (mind) of both the father and the mother announces to us

that the Avatar’s advent occurs in ultra-physical ways. The mother serves as

the inaugural Vessel to contain the Cosmic Essence and allows it to unfold as

its Will dictates. The incarnation of the Buddha too was equally marvellous.

The following lines are from the epic poem ‘Light of Asia’ by Edwin Arnold:

‘The Devas knew the signs and said, “Buddha will go again to help the World”. “

Yes” spoke He. “Now I go to help the World. I will go down among the Sakyas

under the Southward snows of Himalaya where pious people live and a just king”.

That night the wife of king Sudhodana, Maya, the Queen, asleep beside her Lord

dreamt a strange dream, “that a star from Heaven, splendid, six-rayed, in

colour rosy-pearl, whereof the token was an Elephant, six tusked and white as

milk of Kamadhenu, shot through the void and, shining into her entered her womb

upon the right”. The Buddha formed the body for Himself within that maternal

niche, conferring the status of father on Sudhodana, and Maya meditated on the

Sidhartha moon, in the sky of her womb until the time when all could witness

the glory of the child in the cradle. Mary, the mother of Jesus, was similarly

blessed. “The Angel Gabriel was sent from God to Virgin spoused to a man whose

name was Joseph of the House of David, and the Virgin’s name was Mary. And the

angel said unto her, “Fear not, Mary, for thou hast found favour with God. And,

behold, thou shalt conceive in the womb and bring forth a son and shall call his

name Jesus”…. Then said Mary unto the angel, “How shall this be, seeing I know

not of a man?” And Angel answered unto her, “The Holy Ghost shall come upon

thee and the power of the highest shall overshadow thee; therefore also the

holy thing which shall be born of thee shall be called the Son of God. And so

it did come to pass as the World knows.” Swami has often declared that this Sai

Avatar descended because the Saints and Sadhus of all the lands prayed for His

arrival. “I chose the mother who was to experience My closeness during

gestation. The Avatar alone has this freedom of choice. In other cases Karma

determines the time and space, the group and the grade. Years later as Swami

sat one day surrounded by his devotees, there was an abrupt interruption. A

Pundit well versed in the holy Puranas felt a sudden urge to ask a question.

“Swami; was your Incarnation a Pravesa (an entrance) or a Prasava (Enciente) ?”

Shri N.Kasturi could not quite understand the relevance of the interruption that

jolted everybody away from the jocular mood of the talk, but Swami knew the

reason. Turning to Easwaramma seated in front, He said, “Tell Rama Sarma what

happened that day near the well after your mother-in-law had warned you”.

Mother said, “She had dreamed of Satyanarayan Deva and she cautioned me that I

should not be frightened if something happens to me through the Will of God.

That morning when I was at the well drawing water, a big ball of the blue light

came rolling towards me and I fainted and fell. I felt, it glided into me”.

Swami turned to Rama Sarma with a smile. “There you have the answer; I was not

begotten. It was Pravesa, not Prasava”. (Thus a divine incarnation takes place

by a process of impregnation which occurs by the Divine Will itself and not by

the natural and normal human process) To get back to the period when Easwaramma

was pregnant. Kondama Raju had dreams of Venka Avadhootha in which he was

instructing him to be prepared - but for what he was not told. And Pedda

Venkapa Raju, the father, was awakened at night by sweet musical notes

emanating from the string and percussion instruments kept in the ‘rehearsal

room’. Angels, Gandharvas, Kinnaras? Musical Ancestors? He knocked at the doors

of astrologers. Telling them about his attempts to know what these meant, he

described his tension at the time and the comforting explanation of an

astrologer at Bukkapatnam was, “Is the music sweet and soothing?” he asked.

“The notes and beats were thrilling,” Pedda Venkapa Raju answered. “Is there a

pregnant woman in the house?” When told “Yes”, he predicted that the Gods were

playing music to charm the baby in the womb. He recited a verse in Sanskrit

from a book on horoscopes to please the bewildered father. It had come at last,

that moment chosen by the Lord to appear on Earth in His incarnated form. It was

the month of Karthika. Monday. The day of worship for Siva, was about to glide

into Tuesday, the day dedicated to Ganesh. It was 5.06 A.M. I.S.T. on 23rd

November,1926, and the reigning star was Ardra. From 4 O’clock that morning

Lakshamma, the mother-in-law was at the Satyanarayana Pooja at the home of the

priest. She was called back home more than once as the delivery neared but she

was determined not to return until she could bring back the deity’s Prasad for

Easwaramma which she could procure only at the conclusion of the ceremony. At

last she came, she gave. It was accepted and relished. And the son was born. A

mat covered with a thick bedspread had been readied in the corner of the room,

when the labour had begun and now the baby was placed on it, by the

grandmother. All of a sudden, they found the bedspread rising up and falling

down, on either side of the baby. She grasped the child and held it close. A

serpent was coiled beneath : of course snakes there were in plenty at

Puttaparthi, creeping through crevices, crawling along the walls and hiding in

the holes. But the serpent in the living room pretending to be in bed! - it was

the role of Adisesha for Vishnu who rested on its coil; this was the

Incarnation’s first miracle. When Easwaramma was asked about this epic event,

she confessed that she had been so filled with joy at the birth of a son that

she had never even noticed the agitation all around. The child was named

Satyanarayana. The association and affiliation of the human and divine were

made plain by the Name. It announces that the child being Narayana was Sathya

(Truth). God as Satyanarayana had entered the minds of the mother and

grandmother and filled the house of the Ratnakara Raju with Divine Melody and

Fragrance. Narayana coming as Sathya was the consummation for which the world

had long yearned. (The entire matter is taken from the book ‘Easwaramma, the

chosen Mother’, by N.Kasturi, Ex- Editor, “Sanathana Sarathi”). As regards the

birth-marks on the body of the Avatar, a few persons, including some students,

who live very close to Swami, have noticed the eagle-shaped birthmark on the

chest of Swami. Another strong evidence of the Divinity of Sai Baba comes from

an altogether different source, Frank Baranowski, a Professor at the University

of Arizona in the United States. He has the distinction of being an undisputed

expert in the study of the halo that surrounds each person. According to him

the aura surrounding the face of a person speaks volumes about his personality

and character. The aura around the faces of ordinary mortals is nondescript and

often null and void. But in the case of a person who is superhuman and

embodiment of love, the aura is expansive and its luster extends to the sky

which is limitless. Frank Baranowski was bewildered and enthralled to see the

aura surrounding the face of Sri Sathya Sai Baba. According to him, it was a

white and pink aura, the colour of love. The aura became golden like the Sun

and turned into the blue colour of love when the Bhajans were sung. This aura

signified the boundless energy of love. The eyes shone with diamond like

brilliance. Professor Baranowski had no hesitation in affirming that the

aura-wise Sri Sathya Sai Baba is God. During his long career, he had the

occasion to see the aura of many famous and illustrious persons. But never

before had he witnessed the white, pink and blue aura stretching upon the azure

sky above, spreading the golden hues of Sun and the diamond-like brilliance

transmitting the tremendous energy of love. (Taken from the book “Sai Baba, the

Rose Fire Of Heaven”, by Krishna Nandan Sinha). SBOI
