Heart-to-Heart Love

 

While multi-faith celebrations such as Dasara, Christmas, and Buddha

Poornima are attended by thousands in His physical presence, there

are millions of others who are replicating the same spiritual efforts

in their Sai Centres and Samithis across the globe.

 

However, no celebration attracts bigger crowds in Prasanthi Nilayam,

or in the thousands of Sai Centres all over the world than the one

leading to the date when Bhagavan Baba was born. Come November, the

ashram in India literally turns into a global village. It is quite

common to find the ashram abuzz with silent activity as people start

lining up for darshan as early as 12 a.m.!

Russia and Europe, the Japanese contingent exchanging notes with the

Australians and an entire India melting in one proud pot as the

Explaining this unique occurrence, Bhagavan Baba points out,

 

" You are witnessing today the presence here of several thousands of

persons. What is it that has drawn them here? Were any invitations

here? The only reason for their coming is the attraction of Divine

love.

 

" It is because that wish-fulfilling Jewel of Love is manifest here

that these thousands of people from all parts of the world have come

here. Whatever one may say, can anyone point to any person who can

attract so many thousands? Elsewhere, even when people are brought in

lorries, they choose to run away. Here, even when we try to dissuade

people from coming for lack of proper accommodation, devotees will

not desist from coming and staying under the trees or in the open.

This is the love that flows from heart-to-heart. There is no

compulsion on anyone to come here. It is the cord of love that binds

them. That is the power of the Divine.

 

" Only those who have experienced the power of Love can understand

this phenomenon. Love is not something that can be bought. It is

inherent in you. When you try to experience it naturally, you will

realise it. "
