I shall be ever active and vigorous even after leaving this earthly body Baba

[Guest guest]

He kept the body of Baba for three days and protected

it. After seventy two hours, at 3'° clock in the early

hours, the body got back the life. Breathing resumed.

Pulsation was activated. Eyes were open. The entire

body started moving and Baba stood up. From this we

understand that Baba is formless, pure consciousness.

Baba's body is different from it. Baba can live

eternally without the body and in spite of the body.

 

Sri Krishna in the Geeta declared that the body is

different from the Atman and that truth is

demonstrated and proved to be correct by Baba. The

eternity and the spectatorship of Atman are proved by

Baba.

 

The real essence of Baba is formlessness. And the

truthful spirit is made public by Baba. Baba has

nothing to do with the physical form. All forms are

names are his and he is present everywhere.

 

Physical body can't prescribe any limitations to Baba.

He cat be conditioned by anybody or anything, whereas

the ordinary mortals are bound by the body and the

Prarabhda. Your previous Karma haunts you. Divine

incarnations are beyond the purview karma theory.

 

Sri Hemad Panth describes, " The body of five elements

perishes. Body is transient. But the soul is

permanent, deathless truthful. This pure consciousness

is Brahman. That controls the mind and the five

elements. It governs all and that is Sai. He alone is

present everywhere and in everything. There is nothing

without it. To do its proposed work, it assumes a form

of its choice. After doing the self allotted work, the

body gets dropped.

 

Sai is present always. Even if we don't see him here,

we can find him there at Shirdi in the mosque. To the

devotees, it gives you the thrill of Sai-Darshan,

without the physical form, Baba present not only in

Shirdi, but in every other place. He is working for

our welfare without a form. Yogis like Baba does not

die. This may look like human beings, but they are

divine in reality " .

 

What a wonderful exposition! Hemad Panth is indeed

fortunate. Baba, after dropping the body, appeared in

the dream d Lakshman Joshi, the maternal uncle of

Shyama and said, holding his hand, " Wake up. Bapusaheb

thinks that I am dead. Therefore he does not come. You

offer the worship and perform the Arati " .

 

Lakshman Joshi was accustomed to worshipping Baba ever

morning before offering Pooja to other Gods. He has

absolute faith in Baba. As soon as he saw Baba in the

dream he continued his usual worship.

 

My dear devotees! Now, tell, Does Baba have anything

to with the physical body? Even after dropping the

body, does He not live with us? The statement of Baba

that he is eternal is cent percent true.

 

With the physical body, he made many a miracle

sometimes. Now, he responds to our cry or distress and

call of love. He smiles and comes to our rescue even

now. Lo and behold He continues to perform miracles

even now. Paramatman is permanent. The wonderful Baba

too is permanent. The name has assumed is the great

name " Sai " . " Baba " was not dead when the body was

alive. " Baba " was not dead when the body was dead. He

was always alive, wakeful and alert. He was beyond

birth and death. Whoever loves him wholeheartedly,

will he looked after by Baba. To our place, Baba comes

in the time we want him to come. We can talk to him

and feel his presence always. He is always among us,

with us, caring for us. In some form, he comes and

fulfils our desires.

 

Out of ignorance, body is considered to be real by the

ordinary mortals. Atman is unknown to them. The

visible body is all in all and important to them. The

invisible Atman is unknown to them, unnecessary to

them and untrue to them.
