Are We All Arjunas in the Battlefield of Life?to Bukapattana as we thought

March 18, 2008

Dear sister, - I was a nasthic in 1960 when I was in Bangalore and

cmmented about Swami to my friends. it was Swamis will that I should meet Him. in a peculiar fashion. Iwas compelled to go along with some of my relatives who came within 19 days of my critia cism of Swami , to bukkapattanam a village as we thought, but erranously

to a place beyound Arisikara and realising the mistake to Bangalore.

In Bangalore we were told by the hotel owner where we went to take our break fast.,that Swami is in his neighbours house and we may go and meet him there. It was one Mr. Venkataramans house and when we went there and enquired we were told that we can have darshan of Swami at 9 AM when HE will come down. Accordingly we went there at 9 AM with some flowers and fruits.criticised Since Ihad criticised I stood behind.Having some words with others He cameIfell at his feet and He pulled me up and patted me saying that he is there for me. later he has given many interviews and hasw given us

aLingam saying thatn it is Ardha naririeswarar lingam which we are doing abishekam and archana.Swami has many many things for us. I pray for everyone.

sai ram to everyone since the past few weeks am reading all the responses given by devotees regarding that forum, i have not seen or hear whatever comments they have said on our beloved lord, but from the mails that am reading i can guess what happening. I was 10yrs old when i join the organisation, my parents never believed in swami n my dad always thought he was a fraud, he has never participated in any kirtans, never came to see me in any of my balvikas actvity, but yet i never complain to him nor to

swami why?? its because swami has said if today we are close to him, its because he has choose us, it took my dad 11 yrs to believe in swami he told my mama last week he wants to attend kirtan and my mama told him the door of god is always open to every one. only swami knows why it has taken my dad 10yrs to believe in him and am happy that finally swami has called him remember the letter that baba has sent to seshamaraju: ......... it is only the fruit laden tree that receives the shower of stones from passerby. the good always provoke the bad into calumny; the bad always provoke the good into derision. This is the nature of the world. one must b surprised if such things do not happen. people are too full of lust, anger and conceit to see clearly and know fully. so they write all manner things. we should not attach any value to such comments an and truth will establish itself...... . when i am thus engaged in my beneficial task, how can my name be ever tarnished??? ..... i treat the honour and dishonour, the fame and the blame that may be the consequence with equal equanimity. internally, i am unconcerned. i act bit in the outer world, i talk and move about, for the sake of the outer world and for announcing my coming to the people.... all i want to tell u brothers n sisters do not take any wrong decision in haste, let swami decide and if you want to stop those bad comments just pray to swami. when we had pray to him to not take out the lingam because we dn't want him to suffer, he had listen to us, am sure if

you pray to him, he will listen to you and maybe even guide you. i just wanted to share my opinions, now its upon you to decide how you will take it. loka samatha sukhino bhavantu jai sai ram geeta

Sai Ram Forum members I have read the comments and the heated criticisms generated among the pure souls who genuinely love Swami. In this reactive phase we lose track of what Bhagawan teaches us. He feels that we should reflect love in our actions. During ARMY, particularly in Puttaparti, every single day, Swami talked about Unity, Purity, Divinity and asked us to smile and put a namaskaaram to the enemy standing in front of you. If that is what Swami wants us to do, who are we to take anything into our hands??? Experiences, good and bad are your teacher. I, from my personal experience, can vouch for ignoring the comments, as Swami is the Atma in the doer, good and the bad. We should interfere when we need to protect the safety and the wellness of vulnerable being, as in child abuse, women abuse, accosting and

stalking. Here, Swami is being criticized. Sisupala, the cousin of Krishna Bhagawan criticized Krishna 101 times, before his karma ripened to be slaughtered with SU-Darsana Chakra. That is the will of the Lord. He will take any blame, he will not let his Bhaktas be blamed. That is when Swami will react aggressively towards the sinners, as in KURUKSHETRA WAR. If he wants us to fight back, he will say something and it is verily against the divine nature. Let all the darkness of Kali Yuga accumulate, Swami will change over everything with one Sunami. He knows who, where, and how to react back and take care. Till then, our principle duty as his devotees is to be silent witnesses to watch the Laws of Karma take over. Swami reiterates all the time " Satyam Brooyaat, Priyam Brooyath, Na Brooyaat Satayam Apriyam" People will try to

fight back although you are speaking the truth and it will be unpleasant to them. We are trying to defend us against the offenders, when they are quacking against Swami without even trying to understand who he really is, not even a small spark of his light fell on them. As he wills, he will make them surrender and he manifests himself however he wants to. If he is " Paadosya Viswa Bhootani, tripaadasya Amritam divi", and if we really know that he is the omnipresent divinity, if he holds the whole universe as his one foot, why should we do anything???? We are his Arjunas, waiting for the celestial calling and the work gets done. Do we not have faith like Arjuna???
