10thIf you seek my advice and help it shall be given to you at once'

Baba says, " There is almost none who understands me really.

The treasury of my government is full. It is to the brim. It is overflowing. I

asked people to come and take it in cartloads. My sons are the heirs. They are

all my spiritual children. Who else has the right and access to take my

wealth? " I think it is now made clear to every body what Baba wants us to

take from him.

 

The best blessing

It is not wrong to request Baba to solve our financial problems.

But it is wrong if we are not satisfied with what is given by God. It is not

wrong to request Baba to remove your ill health. But it is wrong if you don't

request for the removal of ignorance. It is not wrong if you request Baba for

the fulfillment of your desires. But it is wrong if you don't ask Baba for the

cessation of the birth-death cycle. It neither is nor wrong to request Baba for

spiritual powers. But it is wrong if you don't request Baba for Brahma Gnana and Self-realization.

 

Let us know from Hamed Panth in his own words how he was able to do the great work

of writing " Sai Satcharitra " by the grace

of Baba. Wonderfully and spontaneously, he was able to receive Baba's grace always.

 

" There may be light houses in the middle of the sea.

Navigators safely make their journeys in their light. In the ocean of this

world, the stories of Baba are like the light houses. They show us way to lead

our lives without any danger and difficulties. They are sweeter than the

nectar. They make our life's journey in this world smooth and easy. The stories

of yogis are pious. When they enter our heart through our ears, we will not

have either egoism or body consciousness. Pride and conceit will vanish and

there will be plenty of knowledge stored in us. If we sing the glory of Sai

Baba or listen to his stories with love and devotion, our sins will be washed

away.

 

Therefore, they are the easy ways to grant us salvation. Sanaa and Dama (control senses

and control of mind) are essential in Krithayuga. Yagnas are necessary in Tretayuga.

Worship is a must in Dwaparayuga. But in Kaliyuga, it is enough if we sing and hear the songs and

stories of God for self-realization. It is easy to sing the song and glory of

God. We should only direct our mind towards God by listening to the stories of

God and god men. We outgrow egoism by singing the glory of God. Devotees

develop dispassion and ultimately attain self-realization because of this

reason. Sai Baba has helped me and made me write this sacred book. I live in

him. He lives in me. I love him. He loves me.

 

This book can be read easily and can be heard easily. While

reading and listening to this book, we can meditate on Baba. We can establish

his form and name in us. First, we keep our minds on our Guru and next by his

grace they can be turned towards god gradually. Thus we develop dispassion and

detachment in this world. Finally we will be in a position to attain liberation.

We will be permitted to write his story and to spread the nectar of his

message. It is a graceful gift of Baba. I am only an instrument. He speaks

through me. He writes through me.
