Guest guest Posted June 11, 2009 Report Share Posted June 11, 2009 Sairam, Happy Baba's day to you. Baba bless us all and help us overcome our limitations troubles and hurdles in our life and crown our efforts with success. Often, when faced with hurdles in life be it at work, home, or relationship we get disheartened. But it is our faith in HIM that will get us out of the situation we are in. In order to think of BABA in all times, happiness or troubles one must train the mind to think of HIM and thank HIM only then when we need HIM it automatically switches over to HIM and our life becomes easier. Anyone who trusts BABA will never be disappointed. He is always there to protect us. Here is the message of the week. Baba's assurance to us when we step into the Dwarakamayi - here Dwarakamayi does not have to be the Masjid in shirdi but also it represents the home where Lord Dwells - our hearts and taking Shelter under HIS holy name. Let us keep BABA in our hearts and see the difference it makes in our life... Balasaheb Mirikar Balasaheb Mirikar, son of Sirdar Kakasaheb Mirikar was Mamlatdar of Kopergaon. He was going on tour to Chitali. On the way he came to Shirdi to see Sai Baba. When he went to the Masjid and prostrated himself before Baba, usual conversation regarding health and other matters commenced, when Baba sounded a note of warning as follows:-"Do you know our Dwarakamayi?" As Balasaheb did not understand he kept quiet, Baba continued - "This is our Dwarakamayi, where you are sitting. She wards off all dangers and anxieties of the children, who sit on her lap. This Masjidmayi (its presiding Deity) is very merciful, she is the mother of the simple devotees, whom she will save in calamities. Once a person sits on her lap, all his troubles are over. He, who rests in her shade, gets Bliss". Then Baba gave him Udi, and placed His protecting hand on his head. When Balasaheb was about to depart, He again said- "Do you know the "Lamba Bava" (long gentleman), Viz. serpent?" And then closing the left arm like fist He brought it near the right elbow, and moving His left arm like the hood of a serpent, He said- "He is so terrible, but what can he do to the children of Dwarakamayi: When the Dwarakamayi (its presiding deity) protects, what can the serpent do?" All who were present there, were curious to know the meaning of all this and its reference to Mirikar, but none had the courage to ask Baba about this. Then Balasaheb saluted Baba and left the Masjid with Shama. Baba called Shama back and asked him to accompany Balasaheb, and enjoy the Chitali trip. Shama came to Balasaheb, and told him that he would go with him according to Baba's wish. Balasaheb replied that he need not come as it would be inconvenient. Sharma returned to Baba and told Him what Balasaheb said to him. Baba said, "Alright, do not go. We should mean well and do well. Whatever is destined to happen, will happen".
