What IS SO SPECIAL ABOUT BABA??????

Everyone is hankering after an Ocean of Happiness.But, in the form of Society, Family, Friends & Mundane Love , We are getting no more than a Drop of water. Our Satisfaction is never achieved as the small rivulets,lakes and ponds are never filled with water in the dry season. BUT BABA'S LOVE IS ABUNDANT, IMPARTIAL & ETERNAL.

During the rainy season, All living entities in the land, sky and water become very much refreshed ,EXACTLY ONE WHO ENGAGES IN THE TRANSCENDENTAL LOVING SERVICE OF THE LORD. In addition to the Roaring Thunder of the clouds, there is an appearance of a rainbow, which stands as a Bow, without a string. THE RAINBOW RESTS ON THE SKY SO BEAUTIFULLY ,WITHOUT A STRING. SIMILARLY, WHEN THE SUPREME LORD DESCENDS TO THIS MATERIAL WORLD, HE APPEARS JUST LIKE AN ORDINARY HUMAN BEING. BUT HE IS NOT RESTING ON ANY MATERIAL CONDITION. HE IS LIKE THE LOTUS LEAF IN THE WATER, BEING IN IT ,YET BEING UNAFFECTED,UNPERTURBED BY WATER. This is the stage of BABA.

..WHAT IS THAT SPECIAL SOMETHING ABOUT BABA?? BABA IFECIAL. BABA MAKES YOU FEEL COMFORTABLE RIGHT FROM THE VERY START, BY HIS ENCHANTING SMILE & HIS LOVE OF LIFE COME FROM A WARM & A EVER GIVING HEART., UNDAUNTED BY TRYING CIRCUMSTANCES,( LIKE The fire incident at SAMRATCHANA ,on 5/June/1999., where he maintained his patience & now Become Beautiful , By Baba's Grace & undaunted, hardworking, Loving Service of his Pure Devotees)

Morever, It is BABA'S WISDOM, PURITY, DIVINITY AND HIS UNPARALLED LOVE & SERVICE TO HUMANITY, WITHOUT EXPECTING ANY RETURNS. BABA IS SO SPECIAL , THAT WHENEVER HE IS AROUND, IT SEEMS THE WORLD IS FILLED WITH JOYS, JUST WAITING TO BE FOUND!

BABA IS THE MOST PRECIOUS GEM, NO TREASURE CAN MATCH, FOR HE HAS THAT EXTRA SOMETHING, WHICH IS VERY RARE IN THIS SELFISH & PRETENTIOUS WORLD. AND THAT IS WARMTH & HONEST CARING & PURE LOVE, THAT DRAWS OTHERS CLOSE TO HIM & MAKES THEM SPECIAL THROUHOUT THEIR LIFE.

Where there is Always Deprivation of Love, BABA HAS COME TO SPREAD THE MESSAGE OF LOVE. BABA'S PHILOSOPHY IS LOVE ALL, LOVE IS ALL. THINK ALL PEOPLE AS GOD & SERVE THEM AS YOU SERVE GOD.

IN THIS WORLD FULL OF PEOPLE, SELDOM,VERY RARELY, DO YOU FIND SOMEONE SO LOVING, WHO IS REALLY VERY SPECIAL & OFTEN ON YOUR MIND.

What is it, That the Memories of BABA never fade , rather remains fresh as ever, Even when you are Miles & Miles Apart & make you Yearn & Long for his Love. It takes just a moment to meet Baba, But it is not Possible to Forget Baba ,even for a Moment. Rather ,Love for Baba grows stronger with each passing day.

You could think of Baba, when in a Happy moment or even if your feel low, His Presence is always felt always within You. & he sure, walks your Life's pathway, guiding You through out.

Baba is Love personifed & his only weapon is Love & Love alone.

WHAT'S SO SPECIAL ABOUT BABA??? BABA is the only one who establishes and maintains a Personal rapport with whoever meets HIM. BABA is the only one who taught us the art of LOVING GOD. Now we know that Love as a feeling for God is greater depth than respect or fear. And Love is what GOD expects from us.

BABA does not show any distinction of age, creed or gender.He showers the SAME PURE LOVE on everybody.

BABA loves even those who speak ill of Him, who out of jealousy, try to find fault with HIM.BABA remains calm even in highly distressingly stressfully situations: by doing so, HE has proved hi unparalled equanimity. BABA is the example of GRACE UNDER PRESSURE eg: the Patience shown by Baba in the Sun T.v interview with Yagava Munivar, He displayed exemplary patience by being polite & calm ,even after being threatened by Yagava & using Bad langauage.

BABA is the only ONE who has been able to rise above the formality of donning saffron robes to indicate renuncition. HE has proved that true not depend on external indicators.BABA has been able to mould so many people into paragons of virtue,by HIMSELF being the perfection of virtue.BABA has instilled in everybody the thirst of doing things perfectly, because HE HIMSELF is a PERFECTIONIST.

Above all, HE does everything with only Human strength, not displaying HIS SPIRITUAL POWERS. This endows us with requisite strength to handle any task., for we realise that there is a great deal that can be accomplished if we only tried.

THE MORE WE TRY TO UNDERSTAND BABA, THE BETTER WE REALIZE THAT BABA IS BEYOND COMPREHENSION. WE would assume that a particular thing BABA does for us isthe ULTIMATE PROTECTION. and then we will have the glimpse of HAPPINESS that WE NOW HAVE SOMEONE WHO LOVES & CARES FOR YOU ,like no on can Possibly do.
