Guest guest Posted June 5, 2008 Report Share Posted June 5, 2008 Sairam, Wish you all a happy BABA's day. May BABA bless us always and remove all our obstacles in our life. Shirdi Sai BABA always asked for two coins of Dakshina, Shradda and SAburi - Faith and Patience. Satcharita is a wonderful manuscript for those who have faith in BABA. It is BABA's words of wisdom and direction to us who have faith in HIM. Even in abscence of BABA, when one resorts to Satcharita and seeks answers for their prayers, they will be directly communicated to them. Each one of us gets something from SAtcharita. For me what I get out of Satcharita is " Faith moves mountains". In present world we hear of a number of gurus. I also hear slanders about their personal gurus, on whom they have lost faith. Now if people were reading Satcharita, then they would know that BABA asks people to have faith in Guru. BABA also provided us a leading example by serving a psuedo guru Jawahar Ali. Why did BABA do this? He wanted to drill in to us the concept of Faith. It is faith which is divine, such a faith would invoke God and direct the disciple through guru. So when one accepts somebody as a guru, they should have complete faith in the guru. If for some situations their minds are disturbed by going to the guru then resort to BABA. BABA, once asked a devotee to install a pole in Masjid and worship it as guru on gurupoornima day. Does it mean the pole has directed the devotee? No, I think it is the faith the devotee had on the words of BABA and his true devotion invoked the blessings of the divine. BABA is the param guru. Trust that all actions in our life are result of the grace of BABA, when we trust HIM then He will lead us to right guru who will direct us in the path of BABA. A Guru praises God rather than praising himself. Slandering and slurring against own guru is like accusing, BABA, accusing faith, accusing devotion. We cannot be called true followers of BABA. If experiences are disappointing with a guru, then ask BABA for direction. He will direct us in the right path. Here is the message from SAtcharita chapter 32, by BABA Himself on importance of Guru.. " The Quest ................. Then to! The Guru at once came and stood before us, "What was the dispute about?" He asked and I told him everything that had happened. Then he said, "Would you like to come with me? I will show you what you want; but he alone, who believes in what I say, will be successful." The others did not agree to what he said and left him; but I bowed to him reverently and accepted his dictum. " BABA bless us and guide us always.
