Utter Darkness without Guru

[Guest guest]

Utter Darkness without Guru

 

Without a Guru we are in utter darkness. The reality remains a mere

miasma and a mirage. The glamour of the world is so great and

overbearing that passing phantoms appear stable and substantial, the

untrue puts on the mantle of Truth, and we cannot possibly tear

aside the magic veil and escape from the false charm in which we are

enveloped. It is the Master's Grace that can pull a spirit out of

the physical sheath right above the plane of senses.

 

A jiva is always in stark darkness. If he closes his eyes, there is

darkness within. Again, he is enveloped in total ignorance. He who

can dispel this darkness of jivas is called a Guru. The term Guru

consists of two words: Gu meaning darkness and Ru meaning Light.

Hence Guru means one who can lead us from darkness to Light, from

untruth to Truth, and from death to immortality. The nails of the

Guru's feet shine like a crest jewel in the head of a toad that

shines forth like a flashlight in darkness.

 

To succeed on " Spiritual Path " , we must find One who has explored it

to its utmost limits. A Living Master is an indispensable need, and

an indispensable means to the attaining of Self-Realisation. On the

purely physical level, He serves as a living example of a Perfect

Life. He tells us of our True Home and the way that leads to it. On

the spiritual side He gives us details of the inner Path, its

intricacies and difficulties, provides His Attention with an actual

experience of withdrawal from the body and of the inner Light and

Sound, and guides us through the more difficult part of our inner

journey until we reach our Goal.

 

Baba Said

 

" Baba never prescribed any asan. regulation of breathing or any

rites to His Bhaktas, nor did He blow any mantra into their ears. He

told them to leave off all cleverness and always

remember " Sai " " Sai " . " .

 

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

 

Let us pray Shri Sai to give us the intellect and wisdom to make

tomorrow's world a happier place to stay always with unity by following his

principle of " Shraddha " and " Saburi "

 

Let us pray to Sri Sai to grant us steady faith and love on him.
