So far so good!!!!........

…… " So far so good, but does it prove the end of the role of the

Sadguru in relation to the souls that He had drawn towards Himself

from far and near and with whom He had `Rinanubandha', a karmic

relationship established during many past lives? Although, many

religious and spiritual people hold the view that a master after

leaving his human body cannot help the disciples yet in the case of

Sri Sainath the experience of the disciples has been quite different.

I have had the opportunity of knowing some of the devotees of Baba

who had been with Him before His departure. I have spoken with some

of them and also got their experiences recorded through some ardent

devotees. All of them categorically confirmed that many unexplainable

and miraculous events with relation to Baba are still happening

around their existence as used to be earlier when Baba was there in

His physical body at Shirdi.

 

Most of the books written on Baba's life history and devotee's

experience undoubtedly establish the happening of certain miracles

experienced by Sai devotees, not only before the departure of Baba

but even today. Earlier, there were thousands of devotees mostly

confined to Maharashtra. But, today the increase in the number of Sai

devotees is an astounding phenomenon which is difficult to explain,

but more difficult to deny. More than a thousand temples of Sri Sai

have come up in India and hundreds are in the process of construction

at various stages. Where it is not possible for devotees to build

Baba's temples separately, small and big statues have been installed

inside precincts of temple complexes housing other deities.

 

The activities concerning Sri Sainath today are so multi-dimensional

and widespread, all over the country and abroad, that one cannot

comprehend their total effect in the lives of the devotees and on the

religious spiritual life of India and other places. The researchers

on Baba in India and other countries, who have written a number of

books on Him, need to take up thorough research on this aspect.

This logically brings to mind one question - if after His departure,

the spirit of Sri Sai is not active, then how are all these

happening? Can it be believed to be a mere chance occurrence or is

there a bigger or subtler law of nature, which is manifesting through

these activities. Any sensitive mind with some amount of

understanding of the spiritual history of the world will surely

perceive the reality of a quietly emerging Sai movement. This

movement is based on the principles of humanism, universalism,

tolerance and mutual co-operation of the highest order. These are

principles on the basis of which any civilized society exists and any

religion continues. We are all waiting for " dawning the Age of Sai "

who, I believe, is the " Incarnation of the Age " . In this decade the

world will see the emergence of international Sai movement and

hundreds of temples will be built in a number of countries. History

indicates that the role of the incarnations has been more pronounced

after they had left their gross body.

 

The world needs someone to lead it and bring about unity among the

strife-ridden and mutually intolerant religious, social and racial

groups. Sri Sai preached and practiced the unity of the highest order

based on the principles of love and tolerance in the 19th century and

the early part of the 20th century. In this millennium it will lead

the world in the path of peace and progress. " …….

 

Baba Said

 

" Yoga, sacrifice, penance and knowledge are the means to attain God.

If you do not succeed in this by any means, vain is your birth " .

 

Baba is every where just feel him and keep on saying `Om Sai Ram' to

whom so ever you meet.

 

OM SAI SRI SAI JAI JAI SAI!!! Let us pray at the lotus feet of

Bhagwan Baba who is the incarnation of all gods and protector of all,

to show mercy on us, and increase our devotion towards him

 

Jai Sai Ram

Swamy Mahadevan

Bow to Shri Sai-Peace be to all
