Sai Satcharitra - Ovi to Ovi english Translation - Chp-1

[Guest guest]

61. Our Vedas, Shastras and Puranas are the service to the Guru. Our Yoga, sacrifice and penance take us towards the feet of the Guru and are our means of deliverance. 62. Our Vedas and Shastras are none else than the pious name of Sree Sadguru. Our mantra is “Sai Samartha”.

That is also our mystical contrivance and mystical worship. 63. That “Brahma is real” is experienced everyday. That “the world is an illusion” is a daily awareness. Sai grants this state of heavenly bliss to his devotees. 64. The joy of the Supreme Soul and its realisation, the condition of identity with Brahmanand – all that is tangled verbiage. What is required is the condition of permanent bliss. 65. Whosoever has imbibed this state of mind and continues to remain in the same condition, and has peace and contentment– that state itself is self-realisation. 66. Sai is the mine of blissfulness. A fortunate devotee has no dearth of the supreme bliss. Such a devotee is fulfilled like the ocean. 67. Shiva and Shakti42, Purusha and Prakruti43, the vital airs and their

motion, the lamp and its lustre – to perceive duality in these is to distort the nature of the Pure Brahman. They are the same. 68. The Vedic saying is “Brahman does not delight in being alone” and “desires to be manifold”. Thus is born duality and is again enjoined in unity. 69. In the state of Pure Brahman, there is neither the Supreme Soul nor Nature. Where the sun abides, how can there be day and night? 70. The Real Being is beyond and without any attributes; but for the sake of His devotees He assumes a form. That is Sai, the Pure. I completely surrender to him.
