SAI AS KRISHNA part 1—by saibanisa

 

 

Om Sri Ganeshayanamah, Om Sri Saraswathyainamaha, Om Sri Samardha Sadhguru

Sainadhayanamaha .In the 10th and 15th chapter of Sri Sai Satcharita Baba said

that He is a servant of all his devotees and can be found in everybody’s

hearts. When my Master SAI is your servant, I am also your servant. I request

you to accept my pranams.

 

In the sixth chapter, Hemadripanth said that at every stage while reading

Bhagavatham, he was able to find Sai in Krishna. You must be aware that in our

‘Sanathana dharma’, references are made to Sesha Sai and Vatapatra Sai.

 

 

The history of Lord Vishnu is Bhagavatham. Sai in Vatapatra Sai and Sai in Sesha

Sai, both are one and the same as our Shiridi Sai. In a nutshell, as I read

Bhagavatham, I found similarities between certain characters in Sai Satcharita

and those in Bhagavatham.

 

To begin with let me speak about Naradha, who was an ardent devotee of Sri Maha

Vishnu. He was Upabharva, a Gandharva in his previous life.

 

He was a good singer but had weakness for gandharva kanyas. He once attended a

‘Brahmasatrayaga’ performed by Brahma on invitation. He was singing in

praise of Lord Srimaha Vishnu. He abruptly stopped singing midway and followed

Gandharva kanyas before completion of the yaga, thereby inviting the anger of

Brahma. He was cursed by Brahma to be born in manava loka as ‘Dasiputra’.As

Dasiputra, he served great saints, who in turn blessed and granted him with

‘Narayana- mantropadesa’. He then left the physical body, having undergone

purification, and entered Vishnuloka. From then onwards; he was constantly

engaged in chanting the name of Lord Vishnu. He earned the praise of Brahma,

entered into Brahma through his breath and later was blessed to be born as

Brahma-manasaputhra. Subsequently he spent his life in constant uttering of

Harinama smarana in Vishnuloka and was popularly known as Naradha Mahamuni.

 

You may very well ask me as to which role in Satcharita Naradha fits in. Please

recall the incident from the 15th chapter wherein Baba advised Dasagunu maharaj

well dressed from top to bottom to deliver discourse to an audience. Baba

explained to him the way Naradha mahamuni performed kirtans, and instructed

Dasagunu to go in simple dress, without any cover on the upper half of the body.

He should also remain simple.

 

Let us recollect the past of Dasagunu maharaj. His original name was Ganesh

Sahasrabudhe.He was a police constable by profession. In the year 1894, he came

to Shiridi along with Nana Saheb Chandorkar on a jamabandhi duty. He took

darshan of Baba and earned his blessings. Dasgunu was a good singer besides

being a good poet. After performing his police duties, he would spend more time

in watching ‘Lavani’-a typical dance performed by street girls while he was

singing. Baba noticed his liking for art and his capability to write poetry and

advised him to take retirement from service and serve the Lord by singing

Harikathas.But Sahasrabudhe in his thirst for power said that he would do the

same after getting promoted as sub-Inspector. One day he was caught red handed

by British authorities while accepting a bribe of Rs 36/- He pleaded with Baba

to help him and pull him out of the mess. Baba thus saved and advised him to opt

for service to God for which

Dasagunu refused.

 

Later in the year 1903, after becoming Sub-inspector while dealing with a gang

of dacoits, Baba pulled him out of difficulties. He then opted for voluntary

retirement and dedicated remaining part of his life singing in praise of Sai

adopting the medium of Harikathas.Thus I could find a similarity between Naradha

in Bhagavatham and Dasagunu maharaj in Sai Satcharita.

 

We all know how Sri Krishna saved Uttara during her pregnancy.Aswatthama wanted

to destroy the foetus by aiming the Brahmastra towards it. Some people say that

Aswatthama destroyed the unborn child inspite of Sri Krishna using his weapon

Vishnu chakra .However Sri Krishna restored the child back into the womb of

Uttara.We come across with a similar incident in Sri Sai Satcharita in the 48th

chapter, wherein Sapatnekar was accusing everywhere that his son died due to

Baba’s anger. Baba addressed Sapatnekar before all his devotees seated in

Dwarakamayi. “This fellow Sapatnekar thinks that I am responsible for the

death of his son. Will I ever do such things?†He is now crying for the loss.

Now I shall put back the baby into his wife’s wombâ€, and so did Baba Just as

Lord Sri Krishna had done in case of Uttara in Bhagavatham, Baba has repeated

the same act in Satcharita in respect of Sapatnekar’s wife.
