Sai Mahimna Stotram

[Guest guest]

Sai Mahimna Stotram

(Which flowed from H.H. Sri Upasani Maharaj, a great and staunch devotee

of Shirdhi Sai Baba and is most effective to earn the favor of Sai

Maharaj)

 

I bow to Sadguru Sainath, the God incarnate, who is always in his true

form that is the Reality, who is the source of knowledge and joy, who is

the cause for existence, continuance and protection of the world and who

for the sake of His devotees' wishes has manifested as a human being.

 

I bow to Sadguru Sainath the God incarnate, who is the sun destroying

the darkness of this world, who is praiseworthy, who is beyond mind and

speech, who is comprehensible to sages through meditation, who pervades

the world, who is free from impurities and without any attributes (i.e.

Nirgun and Sagun.) I bow to Sadguru Sainath the God incarnate, who has

manifested himself in this Kali-Yuga for the complete resurrection of

those who have become distressed, having sunk in the ocean of this

worldly life and who now have taken shelter under His lotus feet and are

fond of devotion.

 

I bow to Sadguru Sainath the God incarnate, who having always lived

under the neem tree has caused it, although bitter & disagreeable, to

exude nectar and thus made it a Kalpa-Vriksha, who under that

Kalpa-Vriksha perpetually bestows enjoyments and liberation lo all those

devotees who serve him with devotion and intellect.

 

I bow to Sadguru Sainath the God incarnate, who having performed many

unheard of and unthought-of of miracles, displays bright splendor of

Lord Shiva and who is without any vanity and has pleasing temperament.

 

I bow to Sadguru Sainath the God incarnate, who is like a beautiful

garden for relaxation of the sages, who is praised constantly for

virtues and prosperity by the devotees.

 

I bow to Sadguru Sainath the God incarnate, who is without birth, the

foremost and the unique and the supreme spirit incarnate who have sprung

upon His own and who is Rama himself descended on this earth. Oh

Sainath, I am really purified by your sight.

 

Oh! The ocean of compassion, Sadguru Sainath, fulfills all desires of

all devotees. The Brahma also is unable lo describe the matchless power

of the dust of your lotus feet. Oh mighty one! I have come to you

surrendering with folded hands and with great devotion. Apart from the

lotus feet of Sri Sainath, the God of Gods, I have no other refuge.

 

To purifying my mind polluted by unreality I joyfully meditate day and

night upon Sri Rama, the best amongst the Raghu dynasty and who has

taken the form of Sri Sainath and who is the Almighty and Kalpa-Vriksha

fulfilling the wishes of all His devotees?

 

Oh! Sri Sainath may your umbrella of compassion shining like the autumn

moon remove with its shade the heat of those surrendering at your feet

like the black bee desirous of the nectar at the lotus flower.

 

Oh! Lord and Preceptor Shri Sainath let my sins of many births be

destroyed at the sight of your lotus feet. Forgive all accumulations of

my sins. Oh! Ocean of compassion, be kindly disposed towards me.

 

Those whose minds are purified by the holy water with which Sainath's

feet have been washed, engrossed with devotion in His service, though

sunk in the flood of sins, acquire the final emancipation.

 

Any person who recites or listens to this hymn of praise will certainly

become the object of Shri Sainath's favour.
