DEATH

Moral Teachings

Prema conferred by Baba: He appeared before Rao Saheb Galwankar and

said: " What do you want " ?

G. Nothing but Prema.

Baba. Yes (and Baba disappeared. But G. has often gushed of

Prema ever since then.)

 

Imam (i.e., faith) is conferred by Baba.

Rajaballi Mahomed came to Baba.

Baba to R.M.: What do you want.

R.M.:Only Imam, faith.

Baba: Allah accha karega. (God will bless.)

 

Baba: Why do you grieve: men are born to die. one day each one of us

will die.

Baba: to Appa Kulkarni's wife.

Death and life are manifestations of God's activity. you cannot separate

the two. God permeates all. However, (in fact) none is born.

None dies. See with your inner eve. then you realise that you are God,

and not different from Him. Like worn-out garment, the body is cast away

by God. Appa wants to change his dress (kupni) before I do. Let Appa go.

Do not stop him. Do not ask for Udhi.

Gain and loss, birth and death, are in the hands of God. But how blindly

do these people forget God! Look after life just so long as it lasts.

When death arrives, do not be grieved.

The wise ones do not grieve for death; the fools do.

Behold! The five pranas were lent for use till now. Now the lender

claims back his won; and they are returned. Air goes back to air, fire

to fire. Every one of the five elements thus goes back to its place.

The body (is made up) of earth. See, really they are the same.

Therefore its return to the earth is not a thing to bemoan.
