Baba and Miracles

Baba and Miracles

Miracles happened during Baba's life-time and they conti­nued to

happen even after His Mahasamadhi. In fact Baba never

did any miracles. It was one of the part of the Cosmic

Flow. Those, who joined the flow, experienced them. Those, who were only

spectators, saw them with awe and doubt. " What is going to happen " ,

is a phrase that haunts everyone. Nothing is happening. It is our limited

understanding because of our limited perception. It is there only we need to

join it to be one with it. There should not be separate identification. When

you do not understand your mind, you are not at its mercy; but when you

understand, you are lost in the midst of it. It is the difference between being

in bondage to thought or being liberated by it. The

experience of understanding is wisdom; but trying to capture that

understanding, to convey it in words, is knowledge. Spiritualism is to be in

tune with the supreme spirit. The journey to Spiritualism is very confusing at

the beginning. It is even more complicated compared to the journey in the

unknown space, the unknown starry-world. Baba always indicated that he was in

tune with the Supreme flow and never confronted it. His approach was simple and

direct. He did not write volumes. He never preached as a priest. His life

itself was a light-house that emitted light to all, who came to him. Mystic

incidents happened around Baba. They spoke profoundly that Baba was in the

perfect cosmic flow. Meditation is complete friendship with the self-no

confrontation, no side tracking. The whole life of Baba wags a perfect

meditation, a continuous awareness. He watered the trees and the trees

whispered to him. He fed the hungry and the hungry were satisfied. He calmed

the distressed. He got angry to set the things to tune, to merge with the

cosmic flow. His presence, his look brought together all only to understand the

supreme " self”. He always insisted upon the " Witness State " , and

he was the supreme witness. He never confronted with any so called Karmic laws.

In the present century this saint Sai Baba led the

common man to real spiritual journey. He respected all faiths. He upheld valid

wholesome customs. He proved efficiently that spiritual pursuit is not the

monopoly of the few. Even today, what we term as miracles that take place in the

common understanding, bring many devotees together to share the cosmic feeling

of oneness. Baba had all the qualities that are defined in Bhagavadgeeta

of a Purushottam. I feel Sai

dharma is growing, growing wildly to create more spiritual shelter to all. It

has no ritual barriers. It has no concrete walls of dogmas. It is like the

" air " which we breathe every second to hold our being. Let Sai truth prevail like sweet aroma all over.
