One God

[Guest guest]

As you know the Ten Commandments were given to Moses who was a Jew. Jesus was

also born of Jewish parents and Jewish faith and then started the Christian

religion. When the commandments said "Thou shalt have no other Gods before me"

it did not apply to any religion or religions. It applied to the fact that

there is one God and idol worship and the worship done by people over the

decades and centuries to various beasts etc were not to be. That is the beauty

of Sai Baba who came and never preached any religion and never asked you to

leave or not follow your religion. But Sai told us of the One God and although

he is called by many names like Allah, Ahura Mazda, Ram, Rahim he is but one.

We all on this universe have only one God and the religions that were formed

were because we needed an identity. All of us could not be the same therefore

Sai Baba stands out among all the Grand Masters who walked this earth and his

doctrines and teachings have shown us the

futility of man hating man because of race. color and religion. Do not ever feel

that by calling on Sai you are slightly someone else for Sai and they are one

and the same. Reminds me of an incident when I also felt I was going into my

Fire Temple and bowing before the fire the words out of my mouth were always

"Sai Baba" I asked him if I was being disrespectful to Zarathusthra. A few

weeks later I happened to be in the fire temple and when I was bowing before

the fire I heard him say "Look up" At the entrance to the room where the fire

was kept was a silver Toran (garland) and the garland represented pictures of

Zarathustra holding a staff and in front of my eyes all the pictures of

Zarathustra changed, and there was Sai Baba smiling at me with his hand up to

show faith and patience. I knew then that I had been lucky to Know the one God.

The God of all, My Incredible Sai Baba. If you go to Shirdi you will be

surrounded by people of all religions, race, color, rich and the poor all

standing there in the presence of Sai Baba. Consider yourself fortunate to know

and love Sai, erase your doubts and believe unquestionably as for those who

believe no explanation is necessary and for those who don't no explanation is

possible and as the Bible said Blessed are those who have not seen and yet

believe.
