The need of a Master

The need of a Master

 

The formless God pervades the Universe in the form of Word; but we

cannot feel blessed unless we are enabled to contact It within. Just

like the entire atmosphere is charged with electricity but one

cannot derive any benefit from it so long as one cannot reach out to

an electric switch that controls the energy coming from the power-

house. Once this contact is established, it gives us light, hot or

cold breezes as we may need, and helps us in innumerable ways in

sweeping the house, cooking our food and the like. It carries huge

industrial loads like the proverbial demon and does work that a

thousand persons put together cannot do.

 

In exactly the same way, if one could but reach out to some human

pole where God's energy in the form of word is manifest, one can

become truly blessed and reap a rich spiritual harvest beyond all

measure. Saints, prophets, seers, and Master Souls are such

manifested poles that radiate God's Light, Life and Love. They are

the Children of Light and come to give Light to the world which is

steeped in utter darkness. They are words personified and, so to

say, polarized God within the world.

 

Sadguru or Master of Truth is then the pole where from God's energy

works for the Divine Will. This energy is the Subtlest Form of the

Great Unknown and the Unknowable. It is through the Sadguru that one

can know even this much.

 

It is from the physical that we move to the subtle. The Master

solves for us the mystery of God and saves us from the tentacles of

mind and matter. His long and strong arm pulls a spirit out of body

and mind consciousness and makes it Spirit Consciousness by linking

it with the Sound Principle.

 

This process goes on until the spirit of man becomes identical with

that of the Master. This is the grand purpose, for the fulfillment

of which Masters come into this lowest region which is so full of

misery and woe. Unless God comes in the garb of man and dwells among

us, we cannot know of God in spite of His immanent presence

everywhere. It is the living Master who can do this job. No one else

can. It is through the Voice of the Silence that He speaks. His is

an unwritten law and an unspoken language.

 

The Word of the Master works as an " Open Sesame " to the heavenly

regions. He holds the key that unlocks the Kingdom of God, now a

lost province to us. It is out of compassion and love for the lost

sheep that the Shepherd comes out of his fold, treads the stony path

in an endless search, picking up lost souls here and there.

 

Baba Said

 

" If you have no other Sadhana. Such as uttering God's name, worship

or devotion etc, but if you take refuge in saints whole-heartedly,

they will carry off safely across the ocean of worldly existence "

 

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.
