Sai Devotion

The devotional path of Sai is the wonderful one that the mankind could easily follow. Like a kite controlled by a string, Baba would bring devotees and non-believers to Him. In this Kaliyuga there is no other sure-fire method except Sai Devotion to elevate and liberate the soul. This is the easiest of all methods. In this age, it is difficult for us to practice Yoga, penance or conduct of religious rituals. Hence, All-Knowing Sai appeared to the devotees in the form they wished and taught them the simplest and practically feasible path of devotion. 

Baba has taught that 'faith and patience' are essential for people treading the path of devotion. To get devoted to Sai, one's age, color etc., does not matter much. Only love for Baba coupled with devotion is sufficient. Indeed, good conduct and virtues are naturally cultivated by Sai devotees. Before He shed His mortal coil, Baba, with love, dropped nine coins, symbolizing nine modes of worship, into the palms of Lakshmibhai Shinde. They are viz., listening to Sai Leelas, chanting His name, remembering Him, worshipping His feet, performing rites, bowing, friendship and self-surrender. One is assured of attaining salvation through any of the nine modes of worship. Let us choose any one of the paths and make every effort to reach Sai by devout practice and let us make our lives worthier.

Sacrifice of One's Life in the Service of Others, it's the Secret of Self-Liberation

A living being is blessed with human birth only once - but it is impermanent. But all religions suggested ways to make human birth everlasting. Helping others is the most important of them and such service is like serving God who lives in all living beings in the form of Satchidananda (Sat - Truth, Chith - Knowledge, Ananda - Bliss). Ignoring the welfare of the society and living only for one's own sake amounts to overlooking God. If one serves the helpless, the needy and the forsaken, such selfless service will lead to salvation. Baba, assumed the human form to teach us how we can, caught in the turbulence of the ocean of worldly life, save our souls by the spirit of rendering selfless service by seeing Sai in one and all.

The human life is like a water bubble and is ephemeral. A man may sow a seed and it grows into a huge tree. So long as the tree yields fruits to the posterity, the man, who planted it, lives in the tree though he is dead. Likewise, the man who donates the organs of his body, before he dies, makes himself immortal in the body of the one who got the organs planted in his body for survival. It is the supreme sacrifice. Baba staked His life to save Tatya who was destined to die and thereby showed that sacrificing one's life to save others is the secret of Self-Liberation.

Read Baba's Biography to Acquire Precious Treasure of Wisdom

Man loves to possess inexhaustible wealth. He longs to enjoy endless ever-new joy. It is easy to acquire, but man behaves without foresight and in haste. Although, the ocean has plenty of pearls and corals, man would prefer to get the easily available shells and conch-shells scattered on the sands of the sea-shore. Devotees who gather around Sai Baba used to feel relieved and happy after eating the sanctified food offered by Baba and getting their worldly desires fulfilled, feel relieved and happy. Baba would chuckle and say "My Treasure of Spiritual Wisdom is full and over-flowing. None asks for it".

Devotees like Upasani Baba and Sai Sharanananda, never did they expect temporary gains or pleasures from Baba. He gifted them with priceless Divine Treasure of Wisdom and Ever-New Delight. We need not lament that our spiritual guide Baba has entered the Samadhi. Baba's leelas and the miracles He performed for the sick and suffering have been preserved in Sri Sai Satcharitra, penned by Hemadpant. One has to go through every line of it. The reading of Satcharitra, with a devout heart, should be daily undertaken. Then, we are assured of invaluable advice and divine directions from Baba. The lamp of wisdom lit will dispel our ignorance and we experience Divine Delight.
