Sixth Holy Saying

" My human body would speak from my Tomb "

 

When Baba spoke, (when he was alive with a body), everybody could hear

his voice with the ears. His speech was sweet to the mind, soothing to

the heart.

 

If you want Baba to speak now, go to his Samadhi, talk to him with

devotion and listen to him with the mental ears. His answers are always

available, you will experience his presence. Ears are not needed to listen to

him. It is enough if you have a heart of devotion.

 

If you ask him a question once, you will get a reply from Baba twice. It is

strange and wonderful that your questions which could be answered in the past

will get their answers from within you, near the Samadhi.

 

That means Baba talks to you from within you near the Samadhi. Why

should he talk to you? What is the need? Baba loves us, therefore tells us and

talks to us. That is why he called Chand Patil and enquired after his welfare.

 

Why does a doctor talk to a patient? It is to remove his ailment. Why

does a teacher talk to the student? It is to drive away his ignorance,

why does God talk to the devotee? It is to fulfill his desires, remove

his suffering, dispel his ignorance, and throw away his disturbed mind

and to grant him peace.

 

Listen to what Baba said once: " I fulfill the desires of all my devotees who

repeat my name with love. I enhance their devotion. I shall protect them from

all danger. Devotees who depend upon me will be delighted to hear my stories;

those who sing my glories will be given lasting satisfaction and infinite

happiness, whoever makes a self-surrender, whoever worships me with love and

devotion, whoever thinks of me always, whoever keeps my form in the mind will be

freed from all bondage. Those who think of me always cannot get entangled in the

world again. I save them from all miseries including death.

 

" If anybody listens to my stories, he will be free from all ailments

Therefore, listen to my stories with sincere devotion remember them in

your mind. You are sure to be peaceful and happy. You can be cheerful

always. Those who have complete faith can merge with God. By repeating

the name " Sai " , all sins will be washed away. "

 

Who can give such wholesome assurance? They are the words of Parabrahma through

the body of Sai Brahman is formless and voiceless. The same comes in the form of

a Guru and speaks wonderful words of nectar for our benefit. God speaks and the

body less. Baba also speaks. Who does not want to talk to Baba? The listeners

also are greatly blessed. Baba says that his body speaks from his Samadhi.
