Guest guest Posted February 15, 2010 Report Share Posted February 15, 2010 OM Sri Sai Ram Sai Ram Brothers and Sisters. My wife and myself are Sathya Sai Devotees, As a miracle we have been attracted to Sai only last year. My faith in Sathya Sai has grown each in every passing day and it is unshakable. My wife is also devoted to Sai. It is important to mention that we also worship Shirdi Sai as well as other Gods. During December 2009 My mother-in-law had a heart attack and it was massive and we prayed BABA and she was saved that time due to Swami's Grace. She lived for 2 months with some complication she was admitted to hospital 4 times after first attack. But, unfortunately, My mother-in-law passed away last week, and It was difficult for me to console my wife. I told her that Swami has answered our prayers and she was saved from first attack. If she were to die at first attack itself it would have been a great shock to you and our family. further her heart is damaged and even if she survives this time she has to undergo frequent hospitalization which will be painful for her and others. My wife is telling that I have prayed Swami and My Sister to Shridi Sai with a hope that swami will save my mother. Even when she was sent to ICU, I had a strong belief that Swami will some how save my mother. She Says, All Gods, Sathya Sai, Shridi Sai and other Gods did not answer to my prayer. My devotion is so sincere still, I could not see a miracle. She says that still I will pray God for the sake of my family. But my faith in God is Shaken. Sai Brothers and Sisters, My faith in Sathya Sai is unshakable. Whatever happens It is with His Divine Will. I request you to inform me how console my wife and make her understand, who has last her dearest mother. Sai Ram At His Divine Lotus Feet.

Sairam, Every one has to die one day or other and the destiny is decided at the time of birth only.No one can live forever on this earth.It bis true we get depressed whenever our near and dear are lost as we have associated with them either through birth or other relationship. Kasturi was an ardent follower and sincere and dedicated devotee of Swami and every devotee knows the life history of Kasturi in Prashanthi nilayam.Her lost his beloved young son while he was with Baba.But he never felt any sorrow as he felt that his son's athma reached Swami and safe with HIM.Why Swami alowed the son to reach him?Swami could have saved Kasturi's son as he was most loved by Swami.But why the son died? IT'S ALL DESTINY an none can erase it escerpt in rare cases where Swami had gifted second birth to some.Swami is not with us to keep every one alive forever as He is nothing to do with death as we are only responsible for our destiny and fate as they depend on our karmas only. Let your wife not worry about the death of her mother as her athma is safe and happy to join with SWAMI.Swami lost many of his blood related people during their early age but Swami never interfered in the destiny even though they are His close relatives.SWAMI LOST HIS MOTHER WHILE HE WAS IN Bangalore..Why did SWAMI allow His mother to die instead of keeping her alive for one hundred years?It is nothing but her destiny.I humbly request and appeal to your wife to understand and digest the philosophy of birth and death as no one is permanent on this earth.

Sairam Dear Brother Shivkumar Sairam My Humble Pranams at the lotus feet of my most Dearest and Beloved Sweet Loving Lord Mother Sai, Our Hrudayanivasinee. Please give me the direction and make me your instrument to give reply to the mail that i have received from brother Shivkumar and sister. Sairam to all my Elders, Fathers & Mothers, Sisiters, Brothers and children, first of all i was taken back by seeing the name Shivkumar as it matches with my Guru who teaching me about Deeksha( Preaching ). As i started reading the mail, i was little confused and strated thinking and started to pray to My Mother Sai to give him strenght to sustain the ups and downs. Comming to the point, As per the mail, you have prayed to many gods and recently you have become Sathya sai Devotee also, but for your information there is only one God and he is ulitmate and he is the only one who resides in every living and non living being. God incarnates by taking various forms according to the situation and condition to manage Sathya, Dharma. Shanthi,Prema and Ahimsa in the universe which includes Earth and you and me too. To whomever you pray it reaches to the God who is only one without a second. Bhagwan sathya sai Baba is the present Avatar of this yuga and he has come to us to help us to get elivated to higher levels and merge with him. You will know slowly with Our Mother Sai's blessings. My dear brother, you and your family members are already blessed, because you have taken his name that is more than enough. Billions of people are staying on earth and only few millions are blessed to know that he is God incarinate and you are one of them and you can imagine how blessed you are.. Apart from the above many millions are waiting to see him and yet waiting to get blessings from Our Mother Sai as a permission even to spell his name and finally see him in person. Billions of population even not aware that such thing like avatar exist among us and it is is reachble to us to get the help from him. Our Mother Says Good and Bad are the passing clouds and we should get affected with that. Our Mother Sai has taken care of your family and you should say thanks to him. He has not taken your Mother in law in time by avoiding suffering which will cost all your happiness. As you are aware that everything is based on Karma principle and even than our Mother has taken care of your wife and Mother in law too. In time without giving much pain to your mother in law and with less suffering on the bed he has take her. If our Mother Sai listen's to our prayers and continues to keep your mother-in-law in same condition, you cannot imagine the suffering you all had to go. Last but least, tell your wife that she has Mother of Mothers Our 1000 Mothers love Mother Sai, just pray to her and she will take care and you should blindly beleive that Mother Sai is watching us and she is with us always. However you are blessed and i can feel very clearly that Mother Sai is with you all at all times by taking care of you all. Please take her to Parthi and Mother Sai will take care of her, you don't leave our Mother Sai and leter you will be regreat for the same. Put vibhudee on her face and mix vibhudee in water and give her and she will get the strength automatically to bear all ups and downs. Please excuse me, if i make any mistakes and sorry for the same, Mother Sai will be there with you always. Jai Sairam With Love and Regards G.Ramprasad Sai Servant ---------- Ananda Kumar <drksanand Mon Feb 15, 2010 5:40 am Re: [saibabanews] Query... AUM SAI RAM Dear SaiRam Brother, There is no point in your question. There are numerous books and events described therein that Bhagawan cures some devotees, or postpones their calamities, or advises them to take every thing easily even if the clamity takes place. We are mortals. We do not and cannnot understand the divine acts. I do not know whether you know Telugu. I suggest you to read two books by two ardent devotees - by . Autobiography of Peddabottu - or Gali Sharada Devi. The original edition is difficult to find. The edited and abridged edition explains the events partially. The other one is " Swamy my God " - by Smt. D. Rajyalaxmi. You can even go through the translations if available in English. They were said to be gopikas in their previous lives. But, they lived a very long life, and have suffered a lot. In spite of Bhagawan's blessings, one does not escape, death, disease, problems and failures in life. He will save us from clamities and its effects, but His Grace is always there, so that we can bear the burden and problems easily. Another thing is once we develop faith and love towards God, we will understand that every thing is temporary and every thing will vanish in course of time, and that we have to do our part in the drama. There is one more book by the Malayisian devotee and convenor in English, who told the same thing in his chapters. Swamy Himself declared these lessons. In course of time even your fiance or wife has to forget this event. But steadfast Faith (Trust) is the Most Important thing we require on God Almighty. Without studying literature on Bhagawan it is really foolish to undetrstand the Truths declared by the Avatar. I wish you all the Best. Your SaiRam Brother, K.S.Ananda Kumar. ---------- balaraman govindarajan <govindbg55 Mon Feb 15, 2010 6:34 am Re: [saibabanews] Query... SaiRam, The faith what you are having and your family is having is true. No doubt about it...As Swamy says everyone has to undergo the Karma..where we can pray swamy to give stength to accept the pain..Few incidents happened in my family also..Even some times i had the same feeling in my earlier stage..When you have faith in swamy ..He takes care.. I can only this much now...You will see that in future. Sairam B.Govindarajan ---------- Eugene Yakub <genesai99 Mon Feb 15, 2010 7:09 am RE: [saibabanews] Query... Sai Ram Brother Shivkumar Your request for assistance in helping your wife to accept the passing on of her mother touched my heart, and I would like to offer my thoughts and suggestions. I am going on for 69 years of age with three children who I know will be sad when I leave this body to proceed on my path of reincarnation. It is difficult for everyone and painful to imagine that our dear ones, and particularly a mother, will no longer be present on a human level. However, I know that this lifetime must end, and that the only certain and sure event of our lives is that we will die at some point. Your good wife of course knows this, and that she herself will also have to leave her present body. I think your explanation was very wise that, in fact, your mother-in-law would have only continued to suffer such attacks and the quality of her life would have continued to deteriorate, causing both her and your wife continuous distress. I do agree also that her mother was probably saved the first time to give your wife time to come to terms with her mother's inevitable passing on. However, often when we are in emotional pain, unfortunately it tends to override logic and clear thinking. Perhaps it may help your wife to think of the apparent refusal of Swami, etc., to keep her mother alive in this way: God in whatever name or form is our Mother, Father, Protector and Guide, but He is not our Slave or Servant. He is not there simply to hear our demands and put them into place. If we see Him in that manner, we are projecting human aspects onto Him, which is a contradiction if we on the one hand acknowledge that His attributes are not human but that He is all-knowing, all-powerful and all-present, but on the other we demand that He accedes to our every wish and whim whether or not we are aware of the realities of any situation. As mere humans, we cannot know what is best for our eventual self-realisation, the path for which we have taken and been granted human life. Therefore, when God appears not to grant our prayers or requests, if we say He is perfect, then the problem lies in us and not in Him. He surely cannot at the same time be perfect and simultaneously not be perfect, at the same time love us unconditionally and at the same want to punish us or hurt us. In fact, I believe that the Vedas describe death as being a joyful occasion and a blessing, since we are being given the the opportnity to leave our current vehicle in the shape of our body which we have had for a particular part of our journey, but which has become of little use since it no longer works well, and to instead to take on a new body, which is usually strong and healthy, to speed us along on the following section. Therefore, not passing on could be a time of celebration of that opportunity and of the life which has been lived at that time. The Vedas also caution us against attachment, which is a very hard lesson to learn, because it seems to me that we are not supposed to not care about anyone or for what is right, but to do so without becoming involved in a way which brings destructive feelings and thoughts. One of my daughters and I live far apart and I have seen all too little of her over the years, and when we parted the last time I cried a great deal. She advised me instead to be happy that we had been able to spend some time together, and not to cry that we were apart. I cannot say that I found this easy or that I have been entirely successful, but it has helped me to come to terms with the situation, and perhaps that would also help your wife? Maybe you could both make a visit to Prashanti Nilyam to benefit from extra peace and strength and Swami's great Love? Excuse my long-windedness, and I pray that the situaiton will improve very soon, In Sai Love and Light Eugene Yakub ---------- sanjeev kumar Appicharla <appicharlak Mon Feb 15, 2010 7:26 am Re: [saibabanews] Query... Om Sai Ram! Dear Shri Shivkumar It is with grave heart that I learn demise of your mother in law. May Lord Sai provide you and your wife strength to cope with the loss of her dear mother. It is but natural that we become grief stricken when we lose something which is dear to us. More so, when we lose our near and dear ones. We pray and hope for miracles when we are sad and feel remorseful when our prayers are not answered. It is part of our animal cognition. It is an acute pain, which we feel when the world around us has collapsed and are greiving. The outside world continues with its mindless existence, it appears. The whole meaning of life, it appears, is under severe attack and we seek hope from the recovery from the misery. Lord Sai being merciful watches and provides us with help. Let us not allow ourselves to be totally devastated by the grief but seek a Sai devottee nearby your house. Let us seek for Lord Sai's Udi and accept it as an effective remedy. Pray and seek for Lord Sai's Udi and praying to Lord Sai, drink it in water, which is an effective remedy. If we recollect the facts from Sai Sat Charitra that Tatya Patil's father expired when Tatya was young, and death is a mystery which cannot be overcome so easily. But Lord Sai took care of Tatya Patil and nursed the family back to health. Tayta used to call Lord Sai as Bhai. The cycle of life and death is an eternal process. The mystery of coming and going of atman is known only to Lord Sai. We should accept whatever He has to offer us. Alternatively, as you write that you have deep faith in Sathya Sai, please visit puttuaparthi to seek Blessings from Lord Sai. Because Lord's Sai Grace is still upon us that we are able to see other and feel other and write to each other as members of Lord Sai family. Let our faith be restored in His Grace. Hari OM! Tat Sat!

He also knows as to when our punishments atre pover and we are due to be absorbed into HIM. There is nothing like passing away. it is all mergance in HIM . So have complete faith in Our Baba .He shall always give us what ever is best for us. Sai Ram May the departed soul rest in peace.

Sorry to know that your mother-in-law could not survive after so much treatment and prayer. May God bless her soul with peace in heaven. When our dear one is suffering in front of us & we are helpless to ease her pain and suffering, may be God has HIS own ways to do something to that suffering body, even, we do not want to loose our dear one.

" Sairam " ---------- usha madhusudhan <ushamadhusudhan2003 Mon Feb 15, 2010 9:58 am Re: [saibabanews] Query... Dear sai brother, I am so happy that u are so supportive of your wife. i have gone thru a similar situation,17 years back when i lost my father on a holiday visit. he was earlier saved miraculously from a respiratory attack and ensuing coma, came out of it well,but lived for just a year after that. honestly,i felt that my family's pleas to Bhagawan went unanswered and what touched me most was that, we were not able to invoke HIS MERCY.it was too difficult to absorb this thought,primarily because Bhagawan was and is, the living force of our lives. but i can tell u with conviction that HE looked after us with so much Mercy that, today, i can say with folded hands and hearts filled with gratitude that He stood like a rock by our side and even when our faith was shaken, He never abandoned us. you will also see this working in your lives. the truth i guess is, that Bhagawan knows the state of every human being and as my mother always said,though we hoped our father would come out alive and well after a miracle,his body had been so damaged that it could have made his life very miserable. bhagawan hears the plea of every soul and though things seem so hard to bear and go on ,He never ever gives up. everyone who has tasted HIS DIVINE LOVE knows this. i hope Bhagawan fills your wife's heart with peace and HIS LOVE, for only that can help one to get over the loss of a dear parent,for HE IS THE WORLDS MOST LOVING AND LOVED PARENT SAI RAM usha ---------- Meenakshi Chintapalli <mkchintapalli Mon Feb 15, 2010 10:11 am Re: [saibabanews] Query... Om Sri Sai Ram Your answer is in your question itself Shiv Kumar Ji. It is Sradha and Saaburi. Swami has come to teach us detachment in daily duties and the true dharma is not physical duty but AATMA Dharma. The true Dharma is self realization. It is attained through 100% surrender in your devotion with 100% faith no matter what happens to you at a physical level. I read the news off and on and see how we relate to GOD in SAI BABA when he gives us a visa, job or money or a child. Can we relate to GOD in him as bliss? If we take evrything that he gives as his blessing and divine will, then there is no questioning. I will give you a story that is a reality. A person neglects even her / his physical level duties and creates a Sai Center to spread the message of Bhagawan through their own life. People congregate together. That family never knew Sai Baba till he chose to be known with personal interview that convinces them as an avatar. Therefore with 100% faith and devotion, in a small town they start a Center and show the way to many through service, devotion and education. Swami gives more personal attention to that family. The Center grows. People start discussing how dominating the couple are. Minds get poisoned.A couple of members of the congregation start creating a divide and control mentality through soft talking and create a scene to remove the couple from the Center involvement itself. There was malice and jealousy all the way in their act that is not seen by the physical world. This is true at least in several Centers I know about. The person who worked hard to start the Center and gave all the three wings of Sri Satya Sai Organization their money, family life, energy, emotion, was kicked out of the Center that they dedicated to bring up.Does that mean that Swami is not GOD and he is not an eternal witness to everything?? Does this mean to the physcial world that Swami abandoned them?? Does this mean that the family was in need and Swami gave personal attention but kicked them out of the Center?? Only Swami knows what really is going on as he is the eternal witness in every heart. There are very few who will realize this fact, but give importance to what the mind tells them to do because of their obligations to each other in the physical world. Does this mean that Swami is not receving the devotion of the dedicated families? Should they question why they even pray to Swami as GOD?? As long as there is no EMOTION in DEVOTION, as long as there is no CONDITIONING in devotion, that is a true devotion and it is Swami's duty to acknowledge the devotion. He will take full responsibility in taking care of that devotee. Swami pines to give what he has taken advent for. The true identity of MAN as GOD. Not HIM as GOD. He has not come to take care of devotion as an expression of fulfilling our desire. He has come to take care of Dharma reinstatement, liberate the souls who prayed, acknowledge true devotion, protect his devotees and teach deatchment in service. It is only his will that will change our karma. The life at birth is known to pass away. The stage play inbetween is to live a life of integrity, morality and spread divine love by using the body as divine instrument. Every one creates their own Karma. You, your wife or children can not change teh destiny of others. You can pray for others, but it is upto individual's acquisition of karmic balance that Lord will respond to. He teaches us to accumulate good karma by doing good deeds of giving, not taking time, energy, life, money, knowledge and satsang only. All senses should be tarined towards this goal. All the materializations like , vibhooti manifestations, kumkum, water( ganaga), miracles disappear. But what is realized in Bhagawan as ADI PURUSHA and SHIVA SHAKTI, thru personal experience will not dissolve. Narayana Maha Muni describes ADI PURUSHA through his realization and that shows the way to experience that description by other saints. I will conclude this discussion with Swami's description of a saint. " Satsankalpamulachey manujudagunu Dushtasankalpmulachey dushtudagunu Sakala Sankalpa Rahitudey Saadhuvagunu " " With good acts one becomes a Human being With bad acts one becomes a bad person One who lives without any will of his own becomes a saint This is the word of Satya Sai. " Swami as Krishna also said that his true devotee is one with ANAPEKSHA and with Suchir Deeksha to attain Moksha. He also wants UDASEENO GATA VYADHAHA, that is a state of non reaction to what happens around in the past and present. Sarvaarambha Parityaagi, yo mad bhakta Samey priyaa. With an offering filled with love at the Divine Lotus Feet requesting taht our love and devotion towards any form of Lord Sai should be unconditional. Sai sister MC ---------- " C.V.

Swamy has said that we should shed " MAMAKARAM (Attachment) and AHAMKARAM (Ego). Ofcourse may be difficult to put it in practice by the present human beings.Swamy alone will guide her in the days to come.You may kindly take ur wife to Prashanti Nilayam and spend few days in the presence of Bhagwan.

With regards/Love muralidhar Bangalore ---------- Mangala Ramprakash <gamsetmach Mon Feb 15, 2010 11:41 am Re: [saibabanews] Query... I think surrender is the answer. Surrender to me is complete acceptance of whatever happens without a single ripple of ashanthi in the mind. Surrender is the giving up of the desire for fruits of action, and taking whatever comes as the right medicine for our own highest good, as prasad from God. At the same time, we continue working towards our sath-sankalpas (or right desires) with full effort. As Gandhi says, full effort is full victory, regardless of result. If you consider the result as God's department, and effort as our department....then it's easy to surrender.

I am giving the answer with the prerana or a thought process given by sri sai baba ======= The circumstances your wife undewent (loss of mother) is very difficult and it is quite possible that the faith can be shaken. Baba keeps telling - there is no way that our prayers are unanswered. they will be answered - but the outcome is not always we expect. Baba knows every one's past / present / future / including on those behalf we pray. he does only good taking all and everybody's welfare into account. If baba decides not to give life to some one, probably it is good for that person to leave his/her body for better future in all respects. Other issues related to our Karma. Baba generally does not interfere with any body's Karam, because he is himself bound by Karma. we are not exceptions, we have to pay for what we have done in the past whether good or bad. this cannot be changed by any one. Because we are ourselves responsible for our karma we can pray to any God of our choice and faith. leave alone Baba, the outcome is the same. There are some extra ordinary circumstances where in baba intervened even with our Karma and removed Bad Karma. but are we eligible for that kind of grace ???. In what way we are extra ordinary for such boons from Baba. We believe Baba is our God, so have complete faith in him. Baba is capable of doing any thing, we have somany evidences. then why did he not cure himself????? now he is moving around only in wheel chair. If he wants he can live like as he was moving 10 years ago. why does he not do it.???? He said - he is also bound by the nature and Karma (his responsibilities and duties). ================== Easy to say but difficult to practice. this require constant sadhana on those beliefs mentioned above even for me after knowing the above facts. best wishes sai ram to you, your wife and family Srinivas, Sydney ---------- SOSIAN Mon Feb 15, 2010 3:37 pm Re: Times of Transformation... Query...Sai Ram, Simona Om Sai Ram, I understand what you are going through...whatever your wife goes through reminds me of myself...my mom is still alive but the whole story is too much for me to even think about it at this moment...I can only tell you from my own experience and I had so many wonderful miracles in my life but when it hits us big time it is a huge test...we love God when we experience miracles...then, God is testing our faith...IT IS ABSOLUTELY WOW!....But it is between the one tested and the Divine...trying to convince your wife in anyway it does more harm...she needs to experience this so called by Swami " being in the eye of the storm " ...and no one can take away from her the experience. Imagine I was the one I was going through very challenging times but somehow deep in my heart I never lost faith..sure, I had many moments when I started to doubt Baba ...but very deep in the core of my being I knew that the divine flow that manifest through the form of Swami is present everywhere...my husband kind of lost trust but not in God...he lost faith in those so called instruments of the divine...healers...I had powerful experiences with such people claiming to serve God...I am still on the road...so, I am talking from personal experience which is that we only can help someone go THROUGH the experience but we cannot take the experience away...before this present experience I wanted to save everyone from suffering and this is one of the messages I got from Baba( what I wrote you above)...Baba tells us to serve God but trying to fix the situation is like second guessing God...not only your wife has a test but you too....I call this time A TIME OF PERSONAL TRANSFORMATION...and I believe the process cannot be stopped....remember after darkness ALWAYS light will come in much brighter colors...when I feel sad or lost I keep repeating a powerful mantra, " IT COULD BE MUCH WORST! " ...on and on and on...when someone asks me HOW ARE YOU? instead of acting as a victim I say " BETTER THAN SOME NOT AS GOOD AS OTHERS " ...it takes a lot of practice...I still feel to cry on someone's shoulder but I observe that and I start turning those negative thoughts into whatever I feel Baba is guiding me...Baba is my companion not only once a day prayer or mantras...last night I was seeing in my mind's eye Jesus' face.... so close that I could see the pores from his face...then, I asked Swami " How come you did not come to me? " ...then I heard so clear the story of that man who took a picture of Swami and after he developed the film who was in the picture?...it was not Baba but Jesus...so. we all have a powerful message from Baba that God is in everyone and everything....stay strong in this times of transformations! Sai Ram, Simona ---------- mani narayana aluri <mani_aluri Mon Feb 15, 2010 5:42 pm Re: [saibabanews] Query... Om Sairam, It is always painful to lose dear ones. But there is an underlying fact that when there is birth there is death too. One of the Swamy's devotees an young girl merged with Swamy when her father took her all the way from Delhi to Puttaparthi as it was her wish to be with Swamy. Father hoped that his daughter will survive. But she has breathed her last in Swamy's presence. When we know Karma theory and the truth of life, we will understand why our beloved Sai does this. So, please tell your wife to have unshaken faith in Swamy and He will give her courage to the fact that Swamy does good always. If her mother lives for long with pain in front of her eyes, it will be more painful and even her mother would not have liked to live like that. It is unbearable to live with pain disease. So, please tell her that Swamy does every thing with a cause. Even after losing his young daughter of just 18 years, father and mother and the whole family did not lose faith in Him as they understand why we human beings take birth and what is the ultimate goal. That is reaching God and merging with divine. Please tell her that if she wants her mother's soul to rest in peace, she should try to become to normalcy and chant Sai's name all the time. Please give our condolences and God bless her with will power and courage for losing her dear Mother.

My devotion is so sincere still, I could not see a miracle. She says that still I will pray God for the sake of my family. But my faith in God is Shaken. Sai Brothers and Sisters, My faith in Sathya Sai is unshakable. Whatever happens It is with His Divine Will. I request you to inform me how console my wife and make her understand, who has last her dearest mother.
