Drawing Lots - At the Feet of Shri Sai Baba

[Guest guest]

When such clear-cut examples are before us, why should we hesitate to make

use of this device to solve our difficult problems? Sometimes I feel that

Shri Sai Baba himself must nave prompted Hemadpant to narrate this method

followed by Kakasaheb Dixit in chapter 45 in detail so that His devotees who

would be groping in dark for want of this advice after His Samadhi, could

make use of this device to find solutions to theii doubts and difficult

problems. I myself have followed thij method for the last 7-8 years and

found it most infallible.

 

To  get the correct advice from Baba, I feel that   the following conditions

must be   fulfilled :-

 

(a)      One must surrender completely   to   Baba    with  perfect Shradha

(Faith) and Saburi (Patience). Once the advice is obtained through the

chits, one must   follow the   advice   given   thorough!; without

hesitation even if it is   against   our   wish   and   even   if constantly

and   hardly   pressed to act  otherwise by friends and relations.    In the

initial stages the results may look harmful; but one must have full faith

that   the   omniscient   and  all powerful Baba will always see that we are

benefited and protected ultimately.

 

(b)      Similarly once a decision is obtained, a second consultation on the same

issue should not be sought because Shri Sai Baba does not revise or reverse

His decision.

 

©      The advice should not be sought too frequently and on trivial matters

but should be sought on really difficult and genuine problems. Asking Baba's

advice for securing easy money through lotteries or races and for ways and

means to barm or infuse others will not fetch a correct answer. Remember

Baba never liked such things. Doubts regarding spiritual matters would

always get a correct and prompt solution. As you know Baba was always too

happy to help such devotees.

(d)      It is not necessary to go to Shirdi and draw lots by dropping chits on

Baba's silver padukas in the Samadhi Mandir. Actually one should avoid this

due to the constant rush at Shirdi these days and for fear of causing

inconvenience to devotees lining up for Babas darshan.   Baba's picture at

home is as good as Baba himself and putting chits in front of this picture

will be equally effective.
