Reprogramming our Spiritual Sadhana- Indulal Shah.

[Guest guest]

inner significance begans to unfold itself to us. The "religion" we followed

before meeting Baba, now becomes meaningful and provides a new dimension to Our

day-to-day life. but we so full of enthusiasm, or rather over enthusiasm that we

do not care to find the source of all this new Light and Power coming into our

life. Only after serious thinking do we realize that all this is happening as

a result of the Divine Darsan, or Sparshan, or Sambhashan we had with the Divine

Being in the valley of Puttaparthi where we experience complete silence even in

the midst of the din of thousands of souls and notwithstanding the lack of even

elementry comforts of boarding and lodging. But then this rise of faith in

Bhagavan is not without its thorns. This growing faith in Baba's supreme

divinity has a potential danger to delude our minds into expecting His Almighty

powers to solve all our problems and to fulfill all our prayers. Under this

delusion our faith in Baba, instead of being absolute, becomes conditional,

qualified and limited. We take Baba as Almighty only so long as He fulfills our

wishes. The moment He does not, He ceased to be God to us, even if we ourselves

are the culprits for not having put in the efforts necessary on our path to

achieve what we wanted to or to deserve the desired. Sometimes this

frustration is due to our own fault of ignoring Baba's advice under one pretext

or another because that advice was not to our liking. And yet Baba is blamed for

not doing the needful for us. This thorny delusion is all the more strong

when something goes against our wishes inspite of "Baba's Blessings". The

result is that our faith swings sometimes high and sometimes low, and

therefore, fails to take root in our hearts. Consequently, we fail to get the

full benefits of love and grace from the Avatar of this age. Jai Sai Ram
