1. FROM THE SATSANGHS OF SAIBANISA JI

Compiled by:

Sai Sevak Smt. Rajeswari Kasturi, Saidarbar - Hyderabad.

Shirdi Sai's Philosophy in the words of Saibanisaji

 

NEVER TO FORGET KINDNESS

RECEIVED.

 

In a thicket at the foot of

the Himalaya Mountains there once lived a parrot together with many other

animals and birds. One day a fire started in the thicket from the friction of

bamboos in a strong wind and the birds and animals were in frightened

confusion. The parrot, feeling compassion for their fright and suffering, and

wishing to repay the kindness he had received in the bamboo thicket where he

could shelter himself, tried to do all he could to save them. He dipped himself

in a pond nearby and flew over the fire and shook off the drops of water to

extinguish the fire. He repeated this diligently with a heart of compassion out

of gratitude to the thicket.

 

This spirit of kindness and

self-sacrifice was noticed by a heavenly God who came down from the sky and

said to the parrot: You have a gallant mind, but what good do you expect to

accomplish by a few drops of water against a great fire? The parrot answered:

There is nothing that can not accomplished by the spirit of gratitude and

self-sacrifice. I will try over and over again and then over in the next life.

The great God was impressed by the parrot’s spirit and together they extinguished

the fire.

2. SAI'S NEWS FROM THE TIME MACHINE:

 

February 22, 1914: A Sadhak of Yoga (Swami Ram Baba) visited Shirdi and

seeing Baba eating Roti with onion got suspicious and disappointed. However

Baba proved His power of Omniscience by reading his mind and the Sadhak

returned highly satisfied and blessed.

3. SAI IN DREAMS

http://www.ettitudemedia.com

 

 

These are the dream sequences and

messages as received by SaiBaNiSaji From our beloved GURU LORD SAINATH OF

SHIRIDI. In Anticipation that this feature will help in one's spiritual growth

are hereby compiled from his personal Diary and presented to SAIBANDHUS.

 

Translated and presented by RAGHU RAMAN

SATULURY.

 

AUGUST-1995:

 

01-08-1995

 

Yesterday, Sai appeared in

the form of an unknown person and said-

 

Dress and jewels supplement

beauty and bring grace to the physical body. Behavior, character and good

mannerism commands respect from the society. Whereas the type of the last rites

one begets do not depend upon any of the above factors. It totally depends upon

the moral and ethical values one has followed all through his life.

 

The stature of an individual

in society is based on the moral, social and ethical values practiced.

 

02-08-1995

 

Sai appeared in the form of

an unknown person and said on the topic of Vrunanubandha:

 

Daughter should be married

off and son should be educated to honor one’s commitment towards the children.

 

Share the life with wife like

a true husband.

 

Serve the parents in their

old age and help them towards a peaceful end.

 

Perform good deeds and in the

process your commitment towards the Guru also is fulfilled.

 

All the bondages should be

well settled in order to set free from them.

 

09-08-1995

 

Yesterday, before going to

bed, I asked Sai a question that was haunting my mind for quite some time. It

is known that man is reborn and the cycle of birth and death continues one

after another. Then why should one perform annual ceremonies in the name of

those dead?

 

Sai in the form of an unknown

person said-

 

Once born as a human being

can at the most see three generations passing before him. A man having seen the

three generations, though physically no more, his soul continues to be drawn

and remain attached towards the family members he has left behind. He lives

under the belief that at least once in a year, his sons and grandchildren would

remember him by performing the rituals. It is the tradition that dictates to

observe this practice to fulfill the longing of the departed soul and thus

receive the blessings from the elders.

 

Tradition demands to pay

respects to the elders to whom we owe our purpose and existence.

4. QUINTESSENCE OF SRI SAIBABA'S PHILOSOPHY:

(By Late Sri Bharam UmamaheswaraRao)

 

"Shashi": shashi_31

 

30. Efficacy of Prayer and Worship

 

Before going to bed in the

nights, we must pray Baba without letting our mind devoted to other things.

Prayer heals and brings tranquility. We must all realize that every word

preached, by Baba, on worship had deep meaning and virtues to those who

understood and follow them.

A spiritual aspirant has to

conduct himself in day-to-day life to progress spiritually. When one adopts the

path of self-surrender, as the means to liberation, in effect it implies that

the burden of one’s spiritual progress gets shifted to the Lord. This does not

mean that one will be absolved of the misdeeds one commits after the

performance of Saranagathi. Though the God our of compassion condones all the

sins of the devotee, the Person should reform himself totally.

Devotion can be practiced by

all, since it is not possible for the majority of people to follow the paths of

Karma and Jnana. Bhakti contains many elements but the easiest of them all is

chanting the name which is capable of removing all the sins of man, besides

purifying the mind of all its latent afflictions.

 

If a spiritual aspirant

follows Baba’s teachings and performs them without expectation of result, which

in course of time will result in Jnana. Karma which does not result ultimately

in knowledge and Jnana Yoga which does not lead to spiritual experience are of

no avail. On the other hand, when one is devoted to God, He undertakes the

responsibility to bless the devotee with liberation from rebirths and thus the

devotee is relieved of all concerns about his spiritual progress. Devotion to

God thus is both the means and end.

5. SANATANA DHARMA & SHRI SHIRDI SAIBABA.

 

God is

Consciousness that pervades the entire universe of the living and the

non-living.

 

As for those

who seek the transcendental Reality, without name, without form, contemplating

the Unmanifested, beyond the reach of thought and of feeling, with their senses

subdued and mind serene and striving for the good of all beings, they too will

verily come unto me.

 

-Bhagavad Gita 12:3-4

 

As a person

acts, so he becomes in life. Those who do good become good; those who do harm

become bad. Good deeds make one pure; bad deeds make one impure. So we are said

to be what our desire is. As our desire is, so is our will. As our will is, so

are our acts. As we act, so we become.

 

-Bihadaranyaka

Upanishad

rings, ear spools and pendants made of clay.

 

The Oldest Functional Hindu Temple In the World?

 

http://www.sarvesamachar.com/

 

BIHAR, INDIA, January 23, 2008: The Ma Mundeshwari Temple in Kaimur District, Bihar,

has been reported as having been built in 108 CE. Since then rituals and worship

have been taking place at the temple without a break, possibly making it the

oldest functional temple in the world.

 

It is situated atop the

Kaimur Hill and built in an octagonal shape. The sanctum sanctorum of the

temple is dedicated to Devi Mundeshwari. There is also a Chaturmukha Shivalinga

there, a clear indication that Shiva and Shakti were worshipped here. Temple materials and murtis can be found scattered near this

very rare octagonal shaped temple.

 

The temple attracts devotees

during festivals like Ramnavami and Shivaratri.

6. DEVOTEES EXPERIENCES:

 

mnksh

Tue, February 19, 2008 1:30 pm

 

Jai Sai Ram I wanted do Parayana of Shri Saisatcharitra in a week, and with that wish in mind I started my reading on one Thursday, after praying to lord Sai. I read the lessons of Thursday, on Friday morning as I tried to read, the website was not working, internet explorer was not working, I got totally disappointed as this was the only source for Parayana as I don't have Shri SaiSatcharitra holy book. I don't know much about computer, so whole day restlessly I waited. In the evening ,when my husband came I told him the problem, usually he set the things right, but on that day after spending two, three hours, he said there must be some major defect, so he can't do anything more. He went to sleep. It was 11pm, there was no sleep in my eyes, I desperately wanted to read the holy book, so I went into my temple, and prayed my SaiBaba why he is testing me lie this, I am already in big troubles, so at least please let me do the parayan successfully, I cried a lot, after praying I again went to switch on the computer and chanting Sai Sai I clicked the internet, to my surprise, it started working, now I cried with happiness and read the lessons of Friday, and did my Parayan without any other

interruption. Thanks to my Guru my God Saibaba. Om sai Shree Sai Jai Jai Sai

7. SAI WITH CHILDREN:

http://www.saidarbar.org/HTML/portraits/7.jpg

 

Smt. Madhu Gopal Ravada, Saidarbar, Hyderabad.

Hello Children! I am Madhu aunty. Do you know Baba use

to play with children and used to tell stories to them? I felt children

visiting Saidarbar should be entertained with good stories. Now I want to tell

the stories what heard in my child hood.

 

THE FOOLISH SCHOLARS:

 

Once

upon a time there lived four friends in a town. Their friendship was very deep.

They always stuck together. Of them three were great scholars. They had read

almost everything. But though they had acquired much knowledge, they lacked practical

wisdom. As opposed to them, the fourth friend was not as learned but was full

of common sense and practical wisdom.

 

One

day they were all talking about how to make use of their knowledge to earn

money and lead a happy life. The first scholar suggested that they should

travel to far off lands to learn about other people's lives. This might lead

them to some king or rich man whose favour could make them all rich. So they

all agreed to travel.

Once

again the first scholar said, "We three are well versed in knowledge and

we shall certainly do well. What about this fourth friend of ours? He knows

nothing. He will always be a burden on us."

 

The

second scholar agreed with this and suggested that he should be left behind.

But

the third scholar did not agree. He said, "This will not be right. He is

our child-hood friend. We can not leave him behind". So finally they all

started on their long journey. Traveling a long time they at last reached a

dense forest. At one place they saw the bones of some wild animal lying

scattered. One of the scholars said, "Friends, do you see the remains of

some animal here? This is an opportunity to test our knowledge. Come; let us

make this animal alive once again."

 

"I

can prepare the full skeleton of the animal from these bones" cried the

first scholar.

"I

can give flesh, blood and skin to that skeleton" said the second scholar.

They both proceeded to do as they had claimed.

 

Now

it is the turn of the third scholar. He said, "I can give life to this

lifeless form," and got ready to do so.

 

Just

then, the fourth friend cried out, "Wait, go no further. Don't you see

this is a lion?"

 

The

third scholar was much annoyed at this. He said with contempt, Fool, you can

not stop me from proving my knowledge. I will certainly make him alive."

 

"All

right, go ahead if you can not listen to common sense. But wait for a second so

that I might climb the tree." Saying this, the fourth friend climbed a

tall tree near by.

Just

then the third scholar infused life in that animal. It was a ferocious lion.

The moment he saw the three men standing before him, with a terrible roar, he

pounced on them and killed all three.

 

When

the lion had devoured all the three learned scholars, he went away into the

forest. Now the fourth friend got down from the tree. Grieving for his three

unwise scholar friends he returned to his home.

8. SPIRITUAL GEMS FROM SAI SATCHARITRA

Spiritual Gems from Sri Sai

Satcharitra - chapter 27

 

Sai Ram. Let us now take up

Spiritual Gems from Chapter 27 of Sri Sai Satcharitra. Sai Ram.

 

Shri Sai Satcharitra

Chapter XXVII

 

SSS:

 

Granting Consecrated Book

 

The variety of imparting

instructions followed by Baba has already been noticed in the previous

Chapters. In this, we shall deal with one aspect of it. It was the habit of

some devotees to take some religious books, of which they wanted to make a

special study, to Baba and to receive the same back from Him, after they were

touched and consecrated by Him. While reading daily such books, they felt that

Baba was with them.

 

SSG: Sai Ram. Any thing

touched by Guru caries with it, His vibrations and a holy book becomes holier

when touched by one's Sadguru. Also, without Guru's grace, one cannot read Holy

Books as brought out in another chapter. Thus, if Sai blessed and returned a

book, it was a sign that the devotee can go ahead and study the same. Sai Ram.

 

SSS: Once, Kaka Mahajani came

to Shirdi with a copy of Ekanathi Bhagwat. Shama took that book to read and

taking it with him went to the Dwarakamayi. There Baba took it from him;

touched it and turning some pages here and there gave it back to Shama and

asked him to keep it with him. When Shama said that it belonged to Kaka and had

to be returned to him. "No, no", said Baba. "As I have given it

to you, better keep it with you for safe custody; it will be of use to

you." In this way many books were entrusted to Shama. Kaka Mahajani after

a some days came again with another copy of the same Bhagwat and gave it in

Baba's hand. Then Baba gave it back as Prasad and asked him to preserve it well

and assured him that it would stand him in good stead. Kaka accepted it with a

bow.

SSG: Sai Ram. It is

interesting to note that Kaka Mahajani did not take the book directly the first

time and Shama took it. Thus, it was already destined to pass on to Shama and

Sai, who knew the past, present and the future knew that. When Kaka Mahajani

presented the book the next time, he got it back. Sai Ram.

 

Shama and

Vishnu-Sahasra-Nam

 

Shama was a very intimate

devotee of Baba and Baba wanted to favour him in a particular way by giving him

a copy of Vishnu-Sahasra-Nam as Prasad. This was done in the following way.

Once a Ramadasi (follower of Saint Ramadas) came to Shirdi and stayed for some

time. The routine he followed daily was as follows : He got up early in the

morning, washed his face, bathed and then after wearing saffron-coloured

clothes and besmearing himself with sacred ashes, read Vishnu-Sahasra-Nam (a

book giving a thousand names in praise of Vishnu, and held second in importance

to Bhagwad Geeta) and Adhyatma-Ramayana (Esoteric version of Rama's story) with

faith. He read these books often and often and then after some days Baba

thought of favouring and initiating Shama with Vishnu-Sahasra-Nam.

 

SSG: Sai Ram. We will shortly

see that Baba favored not only Shama but also the Ramadasi by giving him

some valuable spiritual lessons. Sai Ram.

 

SSS: He, therefore, called

the Ramadasi to Him and said to him that, He was suffering from intense

stomach-pain, and unless He took Senna-pods (Sona-mukhi, a mild purgative drug)

the pain would not stop; so he should please go to the bazar and bring the

drug. The Ramadasi closed his reading and went to the bazar. Then Baba

descended from His seat, came to the Ramadasi's place of reading, took out the

copy of Vishnu-Sahasra-Nam, and coming to His seat said to Shama- "Oh

Shama, this book is very valuable and efficacious, so I present it to you, you

read it. Once I suffered intensely and My heart began to palpitate and My life

was in danger. At that critical time, I hugged this book to My heart and then,

Shama, what a relief it gave me! I thought that Allah Himself came down and

saved Me. So I give this to you, read it slowly, little by little, read daily

one name at least and it will do you good."

 

SSG: Sai Ram. When one's

physical life or spiritual life is in danger, one has to seek God and surrender

to Him. That is what Baba conveyed by saying that He hugged the book to His

heart. Intellectual reading is necessary but what is read has to be absorbed

into the heart, i.e. one's whole heart and mind has to be imbued by the

divinity. Then only one reaches the true state of spirit and is free from the

chain of birth and death and is free from the danger of falling back into the

old ways of ignorance. Sai Ram.

 

SSS: Shama replied that he

did not want it, and that the owner of it, the Ramadasi who was a mad,

obstinate and irritable fellow would certainly pick up a quarrel with him,

besides, being a rustic himself, he could not read distinctly the Sanskrit

(Devanagari) letters of the book.

 

Shama thought that Baba wanted

to set him up against the Ramadasi by this act of His, but he had no idea of

what Baba felt for him. Baba must have thought to tie this necklace of

Vishu-Sahasra-Nam round the neck of Shama, as he was an intimate devotee,

though a rustic, and thus save him from the miseries of the worldly existence.

The efficacy of God's Name is well-known. It saves us from all sins and bad

tendencies, frees us from the cycle of births and deaths. There is no easier

sadhana than this. It is the best purifier of our mind. It requires no

paraphernalia and no restrictions. It is so easy and so effective. This

sadhana, Baba wanted Shama to practice, though he did not crave for it. So Baba

forced this on him. It is also reported that long ago, Eknath Maharaj,

similarly, forced this Vishnu-Sahasra-Nam on a poor Brahmin neighbour, and thus

saved him. The reading and study of this Vishnu-Sahasra-Nam is a broad open way

of purifying the mind, and hence Baba thrust this on His Shama.

 

The Ramadasi returned soon

with the Senna-pods. Anna Chinchanikar, who was then present and who wanted to

play the part of Narada (the Celestial Rishi who was well-known for setting up

quarrels between Gods and demons and vice versa), informed him of what had

happened. The Ramadasi at once flared up. He came down at once on Shama with

all fury. He said that it was Shama who set Baba to send him away under the

pretext of stomach-ache for bringing the medicine and thus got the book. He

began to scold and abuse Shama and remarked that if the book be not returned,

he would dash his head before him.

 

SSG: Sai Ram. The Ramadasi

was behaving exactly the way Shama predicted but Shama could not have predicted

the next turn of the events to follow. Sai Ram.

 

SSS: Shama calmly

remonstrated with him, but in vain. Then Baba spoke kindly to him as follows -

"Oh Ramadasi, what is the matter with you? Why are you so turbulent? Is

not Shama our boy? Why do you scold him unnecessarily? How is it that you are

so quarrelsome? Can you not speak soft and sweet words? You read daily these

sacred books and still your mind is impure and your passions uncontrolled. What

sort of a Ramadasi you are! You ought to be indifferent to all things. Is it

not strange that you should covet this book so strongly? A true Ramadasi should

have no 'mamata' (attachment) but have 'samata' (equality) towards all. You are

now quarrelling with the boy Shama for a mere book. Go, take your seat, books

can be had in plenty for money, but not men; think well and be considerate.

What worth is your book? Shama had no concern with it. I took it up Myself and

gave it to him. You know it by heart. I thought Shama might read it and profit

thereby, and so I gave to it him."

 

How sweet were these words of

Baba, soft, tender and nectar-like! Their effect was wonderful. The Ramadasi

calmed down and said to Shama that he would take 'Panch-ratni' Geeta in return.

Shama was much pleased and said - "Why one, I shall give ten copies in

return".

 

SSG: Sai Ram. Here we see the

wonderful effects of Guru's grace. Anger was quenched with love and Baba loved

the Ramadasi inspite of his quarrelsome qualities. He gave loving spiritual

instructions and the words took root. The sadhana of the Ramadasi for all those

years bore fruit. Sai Ram.

 

SSS: So the matter was

ultimately compromised. The question for consideration is "Why should the

Ramadasi press for Pancha-ratni Geeta, the God in which he never cared to know,

and why should he, who daily read religious books in the Dwarakamayi in front

of Baba, quarrel with Shama before Him?" We do not know how to apportion

the blame and whom to blame. We only say that, had this procedure been not gone

through, the importance of the subject, the efficacy of God's name and the

study of Vishnu-Sahasra-Nam would not have been brought home to Shama. So we

see that Baba's method, of teaching and initiating was unique. In this case

Shama did gradually study the book and mastered its contents to such an extent,

that he was able to explain it to Professor G.G. Narke, M.A. of the College of Engineering, Poona, the son-in-law of Shriman Booty and a devotee of

Baba.

IT IS MY PROMISE

 

"It is my promise to

redeem the one who, with faith sings my praises, totally surrenders to me,

remembers me constantly and meditates on me." - Shri Sai Samartha

Satcharita, Ch. 3, Ovi 15.

 

A poor woman was abandoned by

her husband and left with no visible means of support. When the case came up in

court, the judge asked the wife: "Madam, have you any means of support

whatever?"

 

"Well, your

honour," she answered, "I have three, to tell the truth."

 

"Three!"

 

"Yes, Sir."

 

"What are they?"

asked the astonished judge.

 

"My hands, my good

health and my God, your honour," came back the reply.

 

The resourcefulness of this

woman, her self-reliance, and her dependence upon God, can be a lesson to all

of us. The old saying, "God helps those who help themselves," is

still valid. The strength we derive from our faith in God gives us the courage

to have confidence in ourselves.
