[Guest guest]

Sairam to all

Shirdi Sai Baba is Ultimate

Thursday Message:

It is a known fact that we need Gods grace to become spiritual and when the time comes Guru comes searching for the devotee at the right time and at the right place To progress on the spiritual path two things are absolutely necessary, Faith and Patience, Shrada and Saburi, if we do not have this, then there is no spiritual progress, Faith and Patience also applies equally in the material world. In the present 21st Century in the age of computers, everything is fast, Travel is fast through aeroplanes, communication is fast through telephones and internet, and human beings are fast losing patience having habituated to the fast way of life, they want all the things in jiffy, and we are under stress and pressure to achieve things fast, thereby losing faith in ourselves and we do not have patience and ultimately we have to ‘repent in leisure’

Sai Baba is divine incarnate, he is tender and loving and he opens our eyes and shows us the divine beauty of our own self and our tender longings and devotion.

So when the time is ripe Baba guides us and takes us on the spiritual path and gives upadesh which is appropriate for us, this is amply illustrated by the case of Hemadpant, he was serving Baba with Faith and Patience for 7 long years and when Baba blessed Mr.Sathe, the time was ripe for Hemadpant and the thought struck to him, that he is waiting patiently and no sooner Baba sent for him and gave the upadesh in the form of Mrs.Radhabhai Deshmuks Story, where in the importance of Faith and Patience was reiterated and further Baba said, that Meditation is necessary, mediation on Babas Formless Nature and when the devotee progress in the meditation the distinction between the Meditator and Meditation and thing meditated upon will be lost and the meditator will be one with consciousness and be merged with Brahma, that is nothing.

We have to see Baba in every person, animal, insect, and we should serve them whole heartedly like giving food to the hungry, veranda to the strangers for resting and cloth to the naked, if we cannot serve them, then instead of shouting at them, we should politely say sorry to them. Babas Will will be done and He will show us the way and satisfy our hearts desire. And we should never take the labour of others free and we should always compensate them promptly and liberally.

Baba sees to that our Good thoughts lead to Fruition, so we should always think about Baba, and also think of doing good and never say bad about others, We got this human body after performing many good deeds of merit and lets utilise this golden opportunity by doing good, thinking good. so by this positive attitude of ours we please the society and also please Baba.

So in the stressful world, the teachings of Baba are like the soothing moonlight, and if we have faith and patience in Baba and ourselves, then we can achieve wonders in our daily mundane life and also work our way for spiritual growth.
