about the veracity of materializations

[Guest guest]

I confess that I was a little bit afraid to hurt the brother Prabhu when I ´ve

asked for the source which said that the blue-faced Swami was materialized. I

thought it strange, it is obviously a design! quoting the other brother, "Yes I

agree with Susan. The reason is NOT because I doubt in Swami's materialisations

BUT because I beleive in them tremendously". Me too !!! And that ´s why I am

afraid of losing control of true ones and well-made designs begin to have fame

of materializations. I love those designs, I am fan of Saibabaofindia site for

the designs! The computer-made art is art like any other one. But if we don´t

watch over these false fame, very soon the blind brothers that try to spread

lies about Swami will catch this mess caused by us fair devotees to accuse us

of believing in tricks.

WATCHING ABOUT THE FAME OF SWAMI´S NAME AND MATERIALIZATIONS IS

TAKING CARE OF OUR SWAMIJI AND HIS MISSION.

 

IT IS DISCIPLINE TO GIVE AND REQUEST ALWAYS THE SOURCES,

LOOK FOR IT AND HAVE THIS INFORMATION.

 

Let´s spread this "campaign" to the webmasters and devotees, (quoting again one

of these previous emails) NOW THAT THE AVATAR IS EMBODIED and we are here with

Him, we His humble soldiers. very soon we tend to lose control of this issue,

and we have to act NOW BEFORE PREMA SAI´S COMING.

 

A little example that we need to keep the sources

AND IT HAPPENED TO ME, is the following:

 

When in Saibabanews someone claimed to have discovered and forwarded

to us a rare Shirdi Sai photo, and IT IS SO INCREDIBLE that I began to divulge

such news in ORKUT, that is a wonderful site where we people from all the

planet keep in touch naturally like if we were neighbours. ok, then I sent a

message to an owner of a Shirdi Sai Community there and he became so happy and

put this Shirdi pic as the official picture of his Shirdi Sai Baba Community.

(this "Shirdi (?)" pic and its original email is pasted in the end)

 

One, two, three people began to ask for the picture, and I and the moderator was

happy to serve Swamiji sending "His previous appearance (?)" so closely and to

people all around the world!!

 

But then some people there in Shirdi community from Orkut started to say that

the picture was not original, that the sir was a Shirdi Devotee called Sri

Abdul and I became so concerned to have helped to spread a false fame without

guilty and intention!! So far I really don´t know if the picture is Shirdi Sai

or not !!!!

 

then I made a little research and didnt find any official refference about that

picture in Sai Baba sites, and it increased my fear to help the fantasy to fill

the place of the Truth!!!

 

Here I advantage and send the picture to ask the brothers and sisters that have

THE SOURCE or any official information about the veracity that THIS IS A SHIRDI

SAI PHOTO?

 

THAT´S WHY THIS SUBJECT OF SOURCES AND ITS REGISTER IN THE OFFICIAL SITE IS SO

IMPORTANT AND THIS OFFICIAL COMPILATION NEED TO BEGIN FOR OUR OWN SECURITY IN

SAI MISSION!! ( Just Imagine putting doubts on a True Manifestation and

believing in a fake good intention, like mine. IT IS A DISASTER!

 

Please, brothers and sisters, mainly webmasters, let´s begin this campaing!

 

With divine Love, here it follows the original email with the Shirdi photo.

Dear Sister Manisha,

 

Thank you for your wise and compassionate words. I think what you say is so

important. It is indeed our responsibility to keep the teachings and the

information on Swami untainted for future generations. This is so important.

By always including sources, we will be doing a great service to others in the

present day and in the future.

 

I pray that no-one will take offence when sources are requested, but will see it

as all of us together helping to preserve Baba's teachings and miracles

essentially as they are, so that others will not be misled.

 

Thank you for your posting and Sai Ram.

 

Love

Christina

Re: [sBOI-post] Krishna Photo??

 

Sai ram, Yes I agree with Susan. The reason is NOT because I doubt in Swami's

materialisations BUT because I beleive in them tremendously. Other pictures I

have seen which Swami has materialsed of Shiva, Lord Jesus (its in my shrine)

are unique and life like. (they unlike this one look very genuine) God's

creation is always unique and never smacks of a copy !!. The effects on this

one are a super imposition of a famous Krishna painting which I adore and which

was made by an Iskon Devotee.(Which too was in my shrine room). Some 3 yrs back

in Puttaparthi I had first spotted this print and immediately I thought "why do

people resort to computer wizardry" ? as it reminded me of the original krishna

drawing. For future generations, its imp, we acknowledge sources (to which

devotee etc) on all materialisations so that the sanctity of them going forward

can be maintained. "The holy Shroud" was NOT above suscpision. Hence to preserve

a greater tradition : PLease lets ask for sources. remember we are the lucky

ones who have seen Swami and with our own eyes seen many materialisations, for

us belief comes easyly as "seeing is beleiving". It may not be so for future

generations esp if a look alike or computer wizardry can be spotted....

Sai Ram,

 

If this photo has a blue face as I have seen before, Swami said that it was a

made up piece and not for real.

 

Jai Sai,

Dear brother Prabhu,

 

are you sure that this pic was materialized by Swami?

I don´t know, because there are some beautiful designs made on Swami

dressed as Krishna, Rama and Shiva, and I think that this was a design too.

 

Can you please leave here the source where you were noticed that this was a materialization?

 

thank you for this seva!
