Sai Baba the Eternal, Immortal and Mighty Master

May 18, 2007

Dear Sai Bhaktas, with grace of Sai Baba and the inspirations from Sri T. A.

Ram Nathen, an ardent devotee of Baba, I share with you my Sai experiences

as to how miraculously the sincere prayers for the welfare of friends and

acquaintances have been answered from time to time by Shri Sai Baba.

Shirdi Sai Baba is indeed a great Avatar of ‘Avinashi', 'Sidddharaj',

'Yogiraj' and 'Avadhoot’ Sri Parara Guru Lord Dattatreya, like other such

Avatars in different period of history from the Vedic times. The life

mission of such Avatars has been ever advising & guiding devotees in the

worldly and spiritual affairs, Yoga Sadhana and devotion to God. Since Sai

Baba is Lord Shri Dattatreya Himself, He continues to fulfill unfailingly

even today as in His life-time, the legitimate wishes and needs of devotees.

We are indeed fortunate that we have today in our midst spiritual leaders of

such stature who are also either in carnations of Lord Shri Dattatreya or of

Datta Tatwa. All of them are indeed rendering likewise valuable selfless

services to the devotees in India and abroad. I say so because I got such

inklings and identifications in various ways. Significantly, when I

meditate, gracious Sai Baba appears in my visualizations standing in

beautiful surroundings holding three chained dogs in his right hand. So does

Sai Baba prove his identity with many great sages of our times. It is indeed

Sai Baba's prized grace that His Holiness Shri Ganapathi Satchidananda

Swamiji appeared in my life miraculously in answer to my sincere prayers to

Baba in the middle of 1979. I had heard about Shri Swamiji before but I

could not meet Him in spite of best efforts. I assure you my dear Sai

devotees, if Sai willing, I shall soon be able to give you more details

about Shri Swamiji. Let us wait for that opportune time and pray 'Sai Baba'.

I had known about Sai Baba earlier but I became His devotee only in early

1979. In the beginning, I had to be content only with puja at home till late

1980. I had known only now from one Sai Bhakta Shri V.A. Dorkar of Nasik,

who unexpectedly met me and informed me the existence of Sai Baba temple at

Lodhi Road in New Delhi. Thereafter I usually visit the temple not only with

my family but also along with many friends and their families, who had been

later also benefited in many ways. Some of them are Baba's ardent devotees

and the chain continues. Is it not Baba's Leela?
