Re: [saibabanews] Am I jealous or I am yearning for Swami

 

Sairam Partha Sai Priyudu,

Well I can understand your

anguish, which is felt by many ( I am not an exception, such thoughts

have ocurred some time or other). The point we are missing is that HE

WILL GIVE WHATEVER IS REQUIRED TO ANYONE ONLY AT THE RIGHT TIME (ALL

IN HIS TIME NOT OURS). WHEN NEEDED IT WILL BE GIVEN. We should avoid

comparison trips, coming to those who sit in verandah at their

assigned places, there are many even there and He talks / grants pada

namaskar to only a few on any day, I am sure you would have noticed

this. I know some people who sit in verandah, with whom SWAMI has not

spoken or granted a pada namaskar for more than a decade. What we

need to do is to introspect where we are going wrong in living

(really) by HIS teachings, becoming good human beings, caring for

others less privileged or suffering etc . and continue our sadhana

and prayers for being accepted as HIS true devotees. Once we see HIM

residing in ourselves and also in everyone else / everything else at

the same time, I suppose the yearning for all that will vanish. It is

very tough road ahead in our spiritual path, we must continue our

journey, pick ourselves up when we trip and fall, take another step

forward. Dear Partha, you are not only a Sai priyudu but also a

Krishna priyudu, your name suggests that, it is HIM that prompted

your parents to name you so when you arrived on this earth.

In Sai seva,

Your Sai sahodarudu,

Madhusudan Nori

AUM SRI SAI RAM!!

 

Dear Sai Brother Parthasarathy Raja Gopal,

 

I pray that Swami Bless you and all of us with all happiness in life

and greater realisation of the higher self!

 

Till date, in the past several years, I have not responded to any

postings on this Groups or any simlar Groups, because, most of them

are either personal or repetitive.

 

I am responding to your posting only because you seem to express the

feelings of a devout Sai Bhaktha and a reflection of several hundreds

of thousands of Devotees' who throng Prasanthi Nilayam and gather in

the most hallowed precincts of the Holy Sai Kulwant Hall. At the same

time, the thoghts are to be shaped in a positive way.

 

But, My dear Brother, I understand that you have a greater yearning

for Bhagawan's Grace, as do the inneumerable devotees all over the

world. Your feelings, in all earnestness may appear to be true to the

majority of devotees. But can we judge Bhagawan's infinite Love, Care

& Grace for each and every one of HIS children? I sincerely appeal to

you to just reminisce on your words in a more broader and higher

perspective.

 

If my explanation can be of any use to you and the others who think

alike,

I Pray Swami to Bless us all with Proper thinking in the right

perspective and with proper information and knowledge of how things

happen in the hallowed presence of our Divine Father!

 

Those people who sit in the Verndah of Prasanthi Nilayam are those

who are not just permitted to sit there by virtue of their social

positions or their economic status. Many of them are given the

responsibility of reporting to Swamy or to interact with Swami from

time to time on the various responsibilities delegated to them. Many

of them are office bearers of Sri Sathya Sai Central Trust, Sri

Sathya Sai Seva Organisations, the Doctors from the various Hospitals

of Swami, the Govt and Private Officials who have to report to Swami

on the progress of various projects being executed under the Central

Trust, the Old Devotees who have had served HIM for several long

years, those who are invited by HIM for specific purposes and whom HE

utilizes as proper instruments to work in HIS Mission and also those

who are called upon by HIM or those who, by the call of the State &

National Protocol which Bhagawan meticulously follows as the most

Ideal Citizen of the Land and also as a perfect Host who follows all

protocol of the highest order in honouring the Guests and such

others. Yes, there may be some, who may mistakenly feel that they

were given the good Godly chance bu virtue of any of their status in

the society. It is their sheer ignorance and folly to exhibit such

blessings as previliges. It also reflects their forgetfulness of the

equality of the infinite love of the Divine Mother to all HER

Children, but, may be apparently, some children who are lame & blind

who may need more attention in view of their handicaps (either in

their life styles or in their life values).

 

Dear Brother Parthasarathy,

Also, let us remember that, more often than not, Swami hardly take

notice or even throw a glance at those sitting in the verendah unless

HE has a purpose to interact with them. On the other hand, HE knows

and acknowledges each and every one of us waiting hours together just

to take a place in Sai Kulwant Hall both in the early hours and in

the mid-noon Red Hot Sun. That is the time we are all bestowed with

the remembrance of the Lord and to know that our Mother knows about

us more than we do.

 

Unforrtunately, the exhibitionist attitudes of some of the fortunate

(ignorant) lot, may cause jealousy or envy in the other Spiritual

Aspirants. That is why Swami shuns any publicity or self

aggrandisement. Your posting appeared to me more as a self-

introspective than a critical and hence I am prompted to respond to

your posting, so that several others like us may also introspect as

to why this apparently differntial treatment?

 

Krishna always likes Kuchela (Sudama), Vidura rather than HIS Royal

Family Members / relations. Jesus loved the poor and commom man than

HE loved any rich or famous one. Busha Lived a life of recluse and

Mandicant, leaving the luxuries of the Royal Palace. Rama Loved Guha

and Jatayu and redeemed them.

 

In the Divine Glory of the Lord of the Golden Era Bhagawan Baba, it

is for us to behold and lost in the Divine Leelas of the Lord in

making a rich man a good one, a business man a philanthropist, a

scientist into a loving social scientist, a greedy doctor into a

service minded one, a poitician into a social servant, and the rulers

of the World into a clan of more purposeful and meaningful committed

workers for the good of the world.

 

To whom much is given, much more is demanded from them also, in the

form of Devotion, Dediction & Divinization of the mundane worldly

activities.

 

I only mean to reflect on the Divine Leelas in the Glorious Mission

of the Avathar, rather than a routine Religious place, where the

social and economic sisparities are more rampant.

 

I beg your pardon if I have hurt your feelings through this reply.

 

I shall be happy if you may be pleased to feel assuaged of your

feelings of hurt which you expressed in your posting.

 

JAI SAI RAM!

Re: [saibabanews] Am I jealous or I am yearning for Swami

 

Sai Ram All,

 

Our friend, whose mail is below, has raised questions - like a new

comer in any place.

 

Let me address the questions raised by our friend:

 

1. Varanda People

 

2. Discrimination in sai centers

 

1. Varanda People. Those who are doing Swami work or working in any

of Swamis many projects or have toiled and laboured to become an

author of a book or books on their experience with Baba or doing some

selfless service in any part of the world - all these people are

there in the Veranda. Even in veranda Swami descides who will have

interview.

 

Then there are some who have become fully immersed in His

Omnipresence - they come and sit anywhere - if they find a place in

the 100 row it is same if they are sitting in the 1 row - they see

Swami in all around them.

 

It is only the agitated and igonarant who wants to count blessing on

the line status - the lesser the line number the more the blessings.

 

Do you know my friend - there are in every plane a group of people

called pilot, co-pilot and flight engineer - they sit in the up front

area of the plane called cockpit. You may take a flight in first

class, but you will not be permitted into the cockpit. The cockpit is

like the Verandah - special people.

 

2. DISCRIMINATION: In our nature discrimination is there and it has

to be over come by spiritual discipline. My friend you have not been

blessed with a voice to lead a bhajan - but no one has snatched the

right from you to follow each bahjan in whatever voice you have. So

do not lament. Swami says there are more devotees in followers and

less in Bhajan leaders.

 

What is in abundance the user will select the best - that is the

rule - it is not discrimination.

 

With the help of internet and many sites on Swami's teachings, many

spiritual youngesters start using the cut and paste to send daily

messages and then they raise some basic questions -

 

I dont contribute to devotees taking swamis teachings from any site

and start sending daily message - that cut and paste in not granting

you any wisdom - read and dwell on these golden words and then add

your own experience to it - that is value addition.

 

Sai Ram ~ Be Happy

Am I jealous or I am yearning for Swami

 

Dear Sai Brother

 

OHM JAI SRI SAI RAM

 

The comparison you have made is not justified. Whether you stay for

three hours or thirty hours is immaterial, when you get HIS Darshan.

Whether you are in " rich and famous row " or in 30th row is

immaterial, when you believe HE knows all and shall Bless All without

any partiality.

 

Why do we go to PN? To have HIS Darshan. To pray for welfare of your

family, and others, whom you want to lead a pious and comfortable

life. If that be the aim, why to get involved in such comparison and

finding fault with the system being made to control the crowd and

make them have Darshan in an orderly manner? (Just imagine if what

happened in the Airport few months back had to get repeated at Sai

Kulwant Hall everyday?)

 

If at all you feel that HIS pada namaskar is so important to your

heart, just bend your head on the Photo kept at your Puja room in

your house and close your eyes; I am sure you will feel the same

tenderness of the feet of His Lord there itself.

 

Let us not tune our mind to such discrimination; HE is for everyone

and HE will ensure all HIS devotees are looked after and cared for..

 

At Lord's Feet

RE: [saibabanews] Am I jealous or I am yearning for Swami

 

Sai Ram,

 

I would like to point out that you are not the first person to ask

this question and this question was put forwarded to Prf. Anin Kumar

and the following is his answer. Please check following link for

details.

 

 

http://www.saiwisdom.com/anilk-q%26a/

 

You can find answers by clicking link question and answer.

 

Your question on Am I jealous or I am yearning for swami. I would

like you to quote verse from Vivekachoodamani by Adi sankarar.

 

Medhaavii purushho vidvaanuhaapohavichakshaNaH .

adhikaaryaatmavidyaayaamuktalakshaNalakshitaH

 

An intelligent and learned man skilled in arguing in favour of the

Scriptures and in refuting counter-arguments against them – one who

has got the above characteristics is the fit recipient of the

knowledge of the Atman.

 

 

You are certainly a recipent of swami's love.

 

 

THOSE IN THE FRONT ROWS ARE THERE FOR OFFICIAL PURPOSES

I would like to draw your attention to a naked truth. The officials,

the staff members or doctors are heads of different wings in the

ashram. Whosoever sits in the front, they don't sit comfortably.

Please watch them. They are not sitting comfortably. You don't find

them relaxed. Why? Swami may call anybody and bang them heavily.

Blast them heavily! Yes!

 

" Where are you? Come here! Ever since you joined the college, you

have spoiled the college. "

 

Would you like to take my place? (Laughter)

 

" Come here. You brought a bad name to the hospital. I have been

watching you and you are not mending your ways. "

 

Heavy blasting! Would you like to take the doctor's role? No. He will

call some principal or head of the department and say, " There are

more failures ever since you have come here. " (Laughter)

 

Would you like to have it? And then He will call some head and

say, " You are shouting there. That is not good. You fellows, who are

heads here, are behaving like Pomeranians, bulldogs and Alsatians! "

 

He said openly on the dais, " You fellows are behaving like Alsatians,

bulldogs, Pomeranians. You don't mend your ways! " That's what He said

openly. It's on the record! In public, He said it. So would you like

to follow the same? (Laughter) Please tell me.

 

And not only that, suppose He wants to give some instructions to the

college principal. If he sits in the fiftieth row, should He wait

until he comes forward? If He wants to give some instructions to

office people or hospital people, should He search for them? Should

He locate them? Most of the people are there for official purposes;

most of the time, to stand corrected. They have to be ready to be

banged anytime, and heavily.

 

Regards,

 

Karuna

Re: [saibabanews] Am I jealous or I am yearning for Swami

 

Sairam brother,

 

The same question was posed to our beloved Anil Kumar Sir during one

of the Sunday Satsangs that take place in Prasanthi on the first

floor of North Indian Canteen. I am copy pasting below what he

answered.

 

At Prashanti Nilayam, when people gather for darshan, almost all

blocks are reserved, either for VIPs, students, ex-students, special

foreigners, old people, etc., and hardly one block is left for the

general public. People coming from far off places, with so many

difficulties, hardly even get to see Swami properly. Is it not unfair

to reserve these blocks always for VIP people, students etc., who

also get easy darshan, sparshan, and sambharshan on a regular basis?

(311005)

Yes. To speak from the point of view that this gentleman has

expressed, it is a very genuine question. Coming from a long

distance, with lots and lots of expectations, when all the front rows

are reserved by people for various reasons, naturally we will feel

very annoyed. We will be very angry about it. It is quite natural to

feel so.

 

BHAGAVAN IS THE ONLY TOPIC OF CONVERSATION WITH DEVOTEES

I request you to look at the other side of the coin, dispassionately.

I am not supporting anybody. Even in my wildest dreams, I never feel

that I am special. Up to this day, I have never felt that I am

special. No! On the other hand, I feel very happy to be amongst all

my friends, to feel that I am a common man, that I am ordinary. That

is my genuine feeling now (because I cannot give a guarantee for the

future)! I feel very happy when I feel that I am ordinary. I feel

very happy when I am a common man. And I think of those days, sitting

in the fourteenth row, fifteenth row, talking with other devotees,

sharing Swami's experiences and His messages on the 'Golden Era'.

 

The so-called preferential treatment, the so-called VIP line, the so-

called first line has not given me as much happiness as I had in the

past. In the past, when I was just sitting in the twentieth or twenty-

fifth row, the only topic of talk while sitting in the company of

devotees was about Bhagavan only. No other talk. People spoke of

Bhagavan only.

 

THE WEARER KNOWS WHERE THE SHOE PINCHES

Those people sitting in the front row have got certain preferences,

certain personal agenda. Each one might have a letter of request, a

letter of prayer or at least a letter of complaint. Therefore, it is

not such a beautiful thing to be seated in the front row. You find

more comparison and more competition among those who are seated in

the front row.

 

If a person always sits in the front row, when he finds that seat

occupied by someone else, you will see how disturbed he is, though he

has been here for the last twenty-five years. He is the only one

sitting there right from the inception of Prashanti Nilayam. Poor

man! People may leave their property, their relations and their

position, but they hold on to the 'Cuddapah slab', the stone on which

they sit. It is a pity, a real pity!

 

This is something to be sympathised with and even pitied. There is

nothing to feel envious or jealous about. That kind of holding on to

a particular seat, 'Only I should sit here', is irreligious and non-

spiritual, by any standard. No one can defend it. Even if someone

defends it, you can tell him straight-away, " You sit by my side in

the fifteenth row and you will understand the beauty of it. " The

wearer knows where the shoe pinches. I certainly understand.

 

THOSE IN THE FRONT ROWS ARE THERE FOR OFFICIAL PURPOSES

I would like to draw your attention to a naked truth. The officials,

the staff members or doctors are heads of different wings in the

ashram. Whosoever sits in the front, they don't sit comfortably.

Please watch them. They are not sitting comfortably. You don't find

them relaxed. Why? Swami may call anybody and bang them heavily.

Blast them heavily! Yes!

 

" Where are you? Come here! Ever since you joined the college, you

have spoiled the college. "

 

Would you like to take my place? (Laughter)

 

" Come here. You brought a bad name to the hospital. I have been

watching you and you are not mending your ways. "

 

Heavy blasting! Would you like to take the doctor's role? No. He will

call some principal or head of the department and say, " There are

more failures ever since you have come here. " (Laughter)

 

Would you like to have it? And then He will call some head and

say, " You are shouting there. That is not good. You fellows, who are

heads here, are behaving like Pomeranians, bulldogs and Alsatians! "

 

He said openly on the dais, " You fellows are behaving like Alsatians,

bulldogs, Pomeranians. You don't mend your ways! " That's what He said

openly. It's on the record! In public, He said it. So would you like

to follow the same? (Laughter) Please tell me.

 

And not only that, suppose He wants to give some instructions to the

college principal. If he sits in the fiftieth row, should He wait

until he comes forward? If He wants to give some instructions to

office people or hospital people, should He search for them? Should

He locate them? Most of the people are there for official purposes;

most of the time, to stand corrected. They have to be ready to be

banged anytime, and heavily.

 

TRUTH IS ALWAYS BITTER

There is another thing with the Divine Master. This is something

which I am not able to digest until today. Something goes wrong with

you, but I will get the heavy blast. I don't understand why!

(Laughter) He will blast me heavily. I don't understand why! After

Arathi, I will come to know that the culprit is some other fellow.

(Laughter) It is very difficult to digest that. Truth is always

bitter. When one student is irregular, all the other fellows will get

it -- a mouthful! It is very difficult to accept. If something wrong

happens elsewhere, you get a heavy blast! How are you accountable?

 

And when this question was put to Swami, Bhagavan said, " One mosquito

may bite you, but you will kill all the mosquitoes in the room. After

all, only one mosquito bites you; why should you kill all the

mosquitoes? "

 

That is the law (Laughter) of our God right now. We are all

mosquitoes in His hands! He has got enough spray. (Laughter) Oh yes!

(Laughter) Those who sit in the front, they are more accountable,

more responsible. They are on official duties. There is nothing

special about it.

 

GOD'S UNSEEN HAND IS EXPERIENCED WHEN WE FEEL NEGLECTED

Before I go to the next question, I should tell you the truth of

truths. For seven years, I was always getting fifteenth row or

twentieth row, more often it was the thirtieth row, or something like

that. During those seven years, I had many beautiful experiences

which were never repeated. That period of silence, that period when I

was totally ignored, God granted me many, many beautiful experiences.

I will tell you about these later.

 

During that period, I also had some accomplishments and achievements

in my life which I never had in the later period. So, God's unseen

hand is present when we feel we are neglected. This is also true at

the family level. When there is a small tiff in the family, when a

husband fights with his wife or a wife fights with her husband,

whatever it may be, they will be thinking more of each other than

before! (Laughter)

 

ENJOY THE DIVINE ROMANCE

This is the Divine romance. If we get used to the Divine romance, we

will enjoy it. Of course, it can be a painful enjoyment, sometimes a

miserable pleasure, if I can put it that way. Yet, when you think

about those past years, you will smile and enjoy. What a lot of fun

it has been!

 

Once the children are away from us, they think of us more than when

they were with us. When you are away from your family, you think of

your wife right from breakfast time. When you are there with your

family, it follows a mechanical routine. So Swami's outward silence,

apparently neglecting us, is establishing a wider, thicker contact

than otherwise.

 

SWAMI IS ALWAYS THINKING OF US

The bottom line is this: Those who are called for interviews, the

VIPs, the ministers or President of India, whomsoever it may be,

Swami talks about us only. Take it from me; this occurs with the

President of India, the Prime Minister or whoever it may be.

 

" You see My devotees are waiting. They are My devotees. They sit far

behind, but they always think of Me. They stay under the trees and

they bear all kinds of inconveniences. They are My true devotees. "

 

Swami speaks about us only to those people who are called for an

interview. What more do we want? We are the subject of discussion

inside! On the outside, we feel that we are neglected, but inside we

are V-V-VIPs! There is no doubt about it. This has happened a million

times. I can tell you out of my own experience.

 

Once it happened like this: " Has prasadam been distributed? " That was

the question from Swami.

 

Then I said, " Swami, Yes, yes.

 

" Keep quiet! I am not speaking of you fellows seated in the front

row. I am speaking of those who are sitting there (in the back). Have

they received prasadam? "

 

" Swami, I think they have received prasadam. "

 

" Why do you think? You go and check it out! "

 

When I went, only two rows were left. Distribution was almost over. I

thought the boy will complete it quickly. After all, boys are young.

They can jump; they don't walk. 'They can easily complete it,' I

thought. So I went and reported to Swami. " It is over. "

 

Swami said, " No! Two more rows are left. Why do you bluff? I know. "

(Laughter)

 

On another occasion, I said, " Swami, the buses are on strike. Road

Transport Corporation (RTC) buses are on strike. Buses are not plying

to this place! "

 

He said, " Old news! The strike was called off this morning. Buses are

running just as before. " (Laughter)

 

He even mentioned the name of a person who arrived that morning,

sitting in the fiftieth row in Poornachandra Auditorium. " See that

man has come here. He is the RTC depot manager. He is sitting in

Poornachandra Auditorium, behind. " But Swami had never been to that

side.

 

My friends, these are not stories. I will give you his house number

and if you are so particular, his identification (a mole on the hand,

a mole on the cheek), his ID, address and all that. Yet, physically

we feel so badly when Swami doesn't look at us. However, contrary to

how one might feel, all of us are 'registered' here (known and

noticed by Swami).

 

PHYSICAL, OUTWARD CONTACT IS NOT REAL

There were many instances when He said, " This is your fourth visit.

You are feeling that I have not looked at you. I know. This is your

fourth visit, I know. "

 

How does He know that this is your fourth visit if He has not looked

at you? So, let us be convinced that the physical, outward contact is

not the real one. It does not represent the reality, what Swami truly

is.

 

Sometimes, He will turn His head away like that, as if I have done

something wrong. Immediately a thought comes to me: 'Because You

have seen me first, You have turned Your head to that side. Or else

You would not have turned it! (Laughter) You want to put me to a

test; You want to avoid me. Therefore, You have first seen me and

then turned Your head like that. I am glad.'

 

I think like this: 'If You want to talk to a person, You have to

wait, go to him, see him and call him. Because You want to avoid me,

You have seen me first, while You have to see the person of Your

choice later. He is on the waiting list as 'number two'! I am in

waiting list as 'number one'. Fine! Why not?' So, all of Swami's

actions are really very interesting; we should not take it from the

outward, external point of view.

 

I have another question, covering the same issue: " Why is Swami not

looking at me? When the car came close to me, He ordered the car to

be turned in the other direction. " I think same answer applies to

this question also.

Re: [saibabanews] Am I jealous or I am yearning for Swami

 

Dear Sai brother, I have read many of your messages earlier it is

surprising to see such a mail now. In Swami's court there is no

special place for any one no discrimination of rich etc. True, it is

the yearning of everyone to see Swami in close quarters, have a pada

namaskar, have a sambashanam but we should deserve that, first we

should be prepared to follow his foot steps and do service, we need

not even go to Nilayam and look for a place in the verandah, he will

take us there. Secondly there are many people who have distanced

themselves after a frustration of long wait, some even say they are

disappointed that they did not get what they deserve, I would like to

say, we should not expect anything, constant meditation of his name

and form can elevate us. One should never doubt or lose hope.

Thirdly, leave it to Swami, he will take care of everyone and fulfill

their wishes at the right moment as He knows everything. He is so

great we should thank our beloved Lord, as He is there for us always.

Nowadays it is so crowded that it is a big challenge to manage and

please all of them. Our Swami is setting an example to everybody in

the world, Let us be happy wherever we are. Be happy, Be happy and Be

happy.

Swami make us strong so that we think right and continue to rejoice

in the shower of your blessings.

Jai Sai Ram

Re: [saibabanews] Am I jealous or I am yearning for Swami

 

sairam dear brother,

 

sairam you are getting closer and closer to swami. that's the reason

why u asked this question and it will be answered by none other than

our beloved swami himself to ur hearts content. don't look for the

worldly connection with swami it doesn't matter if he gives you

padanamskara or not. what matter's the most is IS HE CARING FOR YOU

OR NOT? IS HE RESPONDING TO YOUR PRAYERS OR NOT? we need not compete

for his love as he has a 1000 mother love for each and every one of

us. there's an old story abt turtles love for their kids. turtles lay

their eggs on the shore and it is just their sight filled with love

that hatches the eggs. in the same way swamis enormous love is

enough for us. his one sight can destroy all our sins and give us

eternity. Did u ever leave parthi with the dissatisfaction that u

didnt had a great darshan ......I dont think so every one will be

leaving happily with the way they had darshan that time. swami

always says abt universal brotherhood in that way the so called VIPS

are your brothers dont you feel happy if one of ur brother is so

fortunate that he gets a padanamskara or a close darshan.

 

sairam
