11-02-2010-THE LOVE OF MOTHER SHIRDI SAI

Win the love of Mother Sai to win the love of God

 

SAI AS KRISHNA part 5—by Saibanisa

 

 

Prahlad, son of Hiranyakashyapa advocated the importance of Navavidha bhakti-

known as the nine forms of bhakti’.He tells his father to be obedient. Be

devoted to Vishnu and worship him. Here we come across a son trying to refine

his father and educate about the importance of Navavidhabhakti. However

Hiranyakashyapa a Rakshasa King by nature was beyond all reasons and a strong

opponent of Lord Vishnu while his son Prahlad was an ardent devotee of Vishnu.

 

Baba also advocated Navavidha bhakti in the 21st chapter. He called Patankar and

asked him whether he has collected all the nine horse dung balls. He could not

understand a word and Patankar asked Kelkar what Baba meant. Kelkar explained to

him that here horse is symbolic with the grace of God. One of the avatars Of

Lord Sri Maha Vishnu is that of Hyagriva which possessed the face of horse. He

is also known as ‘Hyagriva’. Thus Baba asked Patankar if he could

successfully collect the God’s grace. Baba while attaining Mahasamadhi also

gave Lakshmibai Shindhe, nine coins which are symbolic with Navavidha bhakti and

conveyed the importance and need to it’s adherence to all of us.

 

Prahlad was vexed and got fed up with his father Hiranyakashyapa. He says that

you have conquered all the Trilokas, but unable to overpower the six enemies

within you .You win over them and I shall surrender myself to you.

 

Who are they? Asked Hiranyakashyapa.

 

“Kama, krodha, lobha, moha, madha, and matsarya. Thus Prahlad advised his

father to get rid of the arishadvargas in himâ€.

 

 

 

In Sri Sai Satcahrita, Baba advised Atmaram Tharkad’s wife with the same

words. Tarkad was General Manager of Khatau mills, Bombay. She after visiting

Baba was leaving the place with a feeling of inner ego. Baba asked her to give

him Rupees six as dakshina. She was not having any money as they were on their

return journey to Bombay from Shirdi.

 

Atmaram Tarkad explained to her what Baba’s intentions were. Baba wanted her

to get rid of the six inner enemies, place them at his feet and seek His

blessings before they commence return journey. She did accordingly when Baba

gently smiled at her and blessed her. Thus we are able to establish a similarity

between what is told in Bhagavatham and what is told by Baba to his devotees.

 

In Bhagavatham, Gajendra, the ardent devotee of Lord Sri Maha Vishnu whose foot

was caught in the crocodile’s mouth fought with the crocodile for one thousand

years and pleaded Lord Sri Maha Vishnu to come to his rescue. Lord Vishnu came

to his rescue immediately and thus saved his devotee.

 

There is a similar incident in Sri Sai Satcharita. It was in the year 1914,

First World War was going on and an Indian captain Jehengirwala was in-charge of

a warship in the British Navy. The war was on in the Russian Sea. His ship was

hit by a torpedo from an enemy’s Submarine. All the sailors jumped out to

safety from the sinking ship. As a captain, he could not afford to do that. He

was a devotee of Baba and photograph of Baba was in his pocket. He prayed to

Baba to save him from the calamity. At the same time devotees seated in

Dwarakamayi found 2/3buckets of water flowing out from Baba’s body. Baba

lowered his size and entered into the hole created by the torpedo hit and thus

stopped the ship from sinking and attended to the distress call of his devotee

captain Jehangirwala.This could be understood by devotees seated around Baba

only when the captain Jehengirwala visited Baba two months later after the war

has ended and thanked Baba for saving

the ship from sinking. What a wonderful similarity between Srimaha Vishnu

saving his devotee Gajendra and Baba saving captain Jehengirwala fighting a war

thousands of miles away.

 

In the 7th chapter, Baba saved the chid of blacksmith who accidentally fell down

from mother’s lap into the fire, while she suddenly got up to attend to her

husband’s urgent call. She yelled for Baba’s help. Baba seated before Dhuni

in Dwarakamayi put his hand into dhuni and thus saved the child from a certain

mishap and in the process burnt his own hand. There is lot of similarity in Lord

Sri Maha Vishnu coming to the rescue of his devotees and Baba saving his

devotees in their moments of crisis.
