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

[Guest guest]

Once a Sanyasi named Vijayananda

from Tamil Nadu visited Shri

Shirdi Sai Baba. And Baba told him, " Do your duty leaving all attachment

with the things of this world and next. He who does this and surrenders himself to the Feet of Hari (Lord) will

get free from all troubles and attain Bliss. The Lord runs and helps him, who

remembers and meditates on Him with love and affection. " This is the

unique way of Baba. When once you seek help form powerful Guru and God like Sai

Baba, you need not seek any help from any other God.

 

When you request directly and make an application to the district

collector, there is no need to beg the small officers for any help. You should

always go to the top person for the fulfillment of your desires. Hold on to the

feet of the powerful people, not the others. God is all powerful. He does not

depend upon any thing or anybody. Everything and everybody depends upon him.

Whoever repeats the name of Sai Baba repeatedly seeking his help and grace,

will never have any failure.

 

When the minds are fickle, when the resolutions are infirm and

when the devotion is not steadfast, when you change the gods frequently, when

you go from one God to others always, you will never be successful and you will

never obtain anything worthwhile. Hold on to one path. Have faith in one God.

Don't drift from one goal to another goal and from one road to another road.

You will be nowhere. If you want water, don't dig in ten places, ten feet at

each place. Dig in the same place all the one hundred feet. You will succeed.

 

Shree Rama is Hanuman's Guru, guide and refuge. Shri Krishna is gopi's all in all

and refuge. Shri Venkateswara

is Annamayya's refuge. The devotees of Sai Baba have

none but Baba for their friend, philosopher, guide, Guru, God and refuge. Let

not your minds oscillate. Let it be firm in devotion to Baba. Don't lose your

confidence in Baba. Let it grow to be stronger and stronger, day after day.

Don't give up concentration. Meditate more and more on Baba. Do not leave the feet of

Baba. Hold on to them with a tight grip.

 

Look at only Baba. Ask only Baba for any thing.

Keep one form, one name, one goal and one God. Be of single minded devotion.

Sai Baba is your refuge. He also is your solace.

Bow to Shri

Sai - Peace be to all.
