Hoping to be my final post of the month

Om Sai Ram

I felt I needed a considerable time to recover from certain things which were again making my life turn upside down. Thought, this would be the apt time to pen my emotions after a GAP. This is a real GAP indeed. May be this time was given to me just to think about Baba and for nothing else. Today, when I am writing, I am wholeheartedly stuck on to the fact that, it is Baba inside me and he is the doer.

A few days back, when I was really trying to catch some sleep in the night (after ruthless nights), I found something fishy.. Quiet abnormal. In technological terms, I would say perternatural. This doesn't usually happen to me. All I am referring to is the dream which I saw. Sneakily, someone else came in my dream and it was something like an authoritative information which Baba indirectly showed me. Few days back, Jai (not my brother) had given me few black and white original 3D pictures of Baba. It was a good three dimensional one, which had a calendar behind. I know for sure that I will not be able to give those photos to many people. My known/closed circle is really a small one. When I was about to sleep, a question popped up my mind to Baba. I asked him, "Why have you made him to give so many calendar photos when I am not going to do anything with it?". Our Sathguru does not answer many questions on the same time. I was thinking to myself that there must be some reason behind this and then and there I went into deep sleep.

My dream was extremely typical. One would call it un-hypothetical infact. I tend to see a rick quiet often near my place and it had a huge photo of Baba stuck in it (This is real and not my dream). In my dream, I intentionally stop the rick and ask a few questions to the driver. I somehow wanted to give this photo of Baba. Yes, I gave it too finally before the dream was over. The un-hidden part is, I had given two pictures - one to the known driver and another one to someone else who owns a rick.

This happened at say, on the 20 or 21st of this month. I did not find the rick once again. Today, when I was about to throw off waste pooja flowers, I came out and saw a rick standing out with Baba's photo on the back mirror. Of course, it is not the one which I usually see. I somehow felt Baba is showing me a hint, went out asked him if it was his own vehicle. He said, yes. I gave him the picture and I did not have a cam to click his smile :)

Tomorrow being Thursday, may be he will keep it for his pooja was all I would think of. Was asking Baba day before yesterday that there was nothing new to write in the blog and why don't you make me write. Today, he has given me a big reason to smile and write. I am happy that I brought about a warm smile in some one's face through Sai Nath. Baba, no one knows where you begin and where you end. You are the "Karanam","Kartha" and everything in this world. Bowing to you for peace and love.

Jai Sai Ram

Pain

Om Sai Ram

I feel it's my responsibility to let others know what pain in life actually means. It took quiet a few long years to know the real meaning of "Pain". I refer to that pain in our life, the one which we normally correlate with the problems of our life. Many of us merely come to a conclusion and associate it with problems, worries, failure, distress, betrayal and many more things.

Our bloved Sathguru gives us all emotions in life. He gives us many "pains" in life. I normally think and sometimes ask him "Why always me baba?". The answer to this question is very simple however, tough to accept. May be our knowledge is so inadequate to understand heavenly things. When, I was into deep thought about these things, which are part and parcel of our life, I certainly understood one solution. The fact that came to my mind was not new to others, but was very much new to me. It took another long time to understand the fact and you might just calculate the time which I took to implement and putforth into action.

There was this small story which I read some time back. A lady was suffering with so much of problems in her life. Never did she rest in peace. Many new problems boomed and made her restless. She became so depressed and asked our lovable Sai Nath, Baba why do you give me so much of pain when I trust you and consider you as my only God. Baba replied: Child, do you know what pain actually means? Do you know which is real pain? The lady said, No. Baba said: Pain is something which happens when a life comes new into this world. That is the real pain which happens when Jeevathma and Paramathma co-incide in this earth.

The lady once again asked: Why do you give me so many problems again and again?
Baba replied: Because, you are my child. I love you and I can play with somone whom I love a lot and not with anyone else.

I simply had tears of happiness in my eyes when I read this. What a wonderful explanation that Baba could give. Wont we want to have problems every time in our life then? I will certainly. If Baba, loves me so much and gives me problems, I want him to give more and more of "pain" in my life. I know he loves me that much and keeps playing with me. He is the one who knows where to begin and to end. He knows what to give, whom to give and when to give. I read this story when I cried to Baba about my problems. He gave me an answer, crisp and clear. This is what he wants from his children. He wants us to surrender us whole-heartedly to him. Expectation leads to dislike - may be this is for humans. But our Sathguru's expectation will lead us to the divine path of love and mercy. Baba, I guess you are expecting me to write more, give me many more experiences to jort down here. **Conditions Apply** :)

Guiding a Benevolent Deed

Om Sai Ram

In Hindu customs, Lord Ganesha is the first and foremost deity to start something. It is considered to be auspicious and righteous. Additionally, it is an acceptable fact that, once you start yourself to do something good to others and in an urge to help the needy, God always travels before you could think. Scientifically, it can be called as premonition or insight. In normal terms, it is "Telepathy". The Almighty knows the inner you and can make you feel satisfied when you tend to do something good. Guru and God are no different. It is of course a thin line that we draw ourselves to differentiate both. I consider Baba as my Guru, God, Guide, Mother and what not. There is a saying which goes like this, "You become what you think". It is absolutely true and has much more meaning in it than we assume.

In an attempt to post something which happens in favor of goodwill and good deeds. I should have posted it yesterday itself, since it was my father's 9th death anniversary. My father was the synonym for humility and can never ever think of someone more humble than him. I am proud to be his daughter since I have inherited some of his qualities too. He was a very studious person and I have never seen him without reading a book in a day. I inculcated the habit of reading from him. It was he who thought me many things, be it studies, behavior, attitude and anything. It reminds me of my childhood days and my relishing memories with my father. I still cannot believe that he is not with me anymore. He travels a lot, so I keep thinking to myself that he has gone somewhere out of town and will be back to home soon :)

My father loves to serve food. I have been following a practice and make sure that I give food atleast to a few people I see. Yesterday, I did the same. Got some ten food packs with sweets in it. Kanchipuram is renowned for temples all around the city. I did find out a close one and distributed food to whomever I saw. I had a dhothi with me which was to be given to someone whom I felt really deserved it. I kept the dhothi in front of Baba in the morning, praying him to show me the right person for this. Food, yes everyone will be ready to get. But, I was not sure as to how many of them would get cloth from me though it was a new one. I wanted to give this to somone whom I saw alone in a temple. I took my vehicle, roamed almost all known places. I did not know that Sundays were holidays for them too. Finally, I found one old man in the temple which stood behind our house. I asked him if he is okay with the offer that I had for him. He was happy with it. I took the dhothi, with some fruits and eleven rupees as dakshin gave it to him. I was immensely happy when he said, "Nalla iru ma". Whatelse could be a better blessing than this.

My husband came to a conclusion and said that he will make this as a practice whenever possible (though he was not present). It is such an experience to feed someone when they are starving and to drape a person when they are in need of good clothing. All these made my day. I couldn't just come out from it easily. Though I wrote yesterday here, it is now I am able to concentrate more. Baba helped me to do everything in a smooth way. I did face a few obstruction when I started from home. Baba was there with me guiding the entire day, if not nothing would have been possible. This is also something which Baba made me think of. I cannot imagine anything without his intereference in my life hereon. Baba, help me and my husband to involve in many such good things. I pray to you humbly for all that you have done so far. I know my father will also be happy for what I had done yesterday. It is not just yesterday, please make me feel the same thing whenever I could think of helping others. It is you, who is behind everything. Make me get going......

Progressive Presence

Om Sai Ram

It is my contemptible responsibility to post another important incident. Albeit, I have mentioned in my earlier posts about this and also mentioned that it resembles a part of Sai Satcharithra, it takes me to another world of pure, innocent devotion whilst writing these experiences. Quiet a few things which my brother Jai Ganesh told me before the day of Ganesh Chathurthi. Jai's one of elder brother had to relocate his residence.

I think it is one of those good old convention in India to have a house warming ceremony. Well, I do not know about other parts of the globe, to me, this means something that's done on an auspicious day and a handful of known people and relatives are a part of this small, formal celebration. This is a normal attitude that is followed in a very traditional way. In India, people celebrate this as a ceremony for not only buying a new house, but for also shifting to a new rented house. It is believed that these small nothings, brings prosperity and enchantment to a family. Jai's elder brother had invited him to be a part of this celebration. Jai thought to himself that he should give atleast a picture of Baba, since this is really going to be a new begining for them. Deplorably, Jai did not find any picture nor for some reason he had forgotten about it. Nonetheless, he thought to himself and apologised Baba for forgetting this. In hindu customs, it is a firm trust that, once a God or Godess enters a house, the house becomes fulfilled. This is still a belief and many at times a proven theorey too. Once, Jai entered the new house, he smelled everything to be new and promptly turned his head towards the wall. That's there he found a huge picture of Baba pasted on the wall. This was ultimately the happiest moment of the day for the entire family. If Baba wants to stay somewhere, we really dont have to take too much of effort to take him there. I have noticed this many times. Be it while travelling, visiting a neighbors house, before starting to the temple and I can give so many instances. The landlord of that house had vacated  just two days before and they did not remove off the picture for some reason. How impeccably happy could one be to experience such a marvel? I also felt the same when he said this to me and I did promise him that I will for sure get this written here.

Furthermore, I felt like correlating this to an incident to one of the devotees of Shri Sai Baba in the Satcharithra. I have one more strong reason for making my blog feel lively and I am sure that Baba would make me write even many more things here. I have a positive vibe in me, once I have documented something here. It makes me feel more comfortable and at ease that I am able to jort down things here. Few of many things constitute a huge story. That's how this is also getting closer to the making of another new divine story. I do not know many people, my closed ones are countable. Though, I make friends easily. It's indeed an awesome experience to document others' experiences. Baba blesses me in everything I do. I will continue to do my work with utmost dedication.

Jai Sai Ram

And... The awaited Day

Om Sai Ram

I am in kind of posting here the most auspicious and awaited day (Ganesh Chathurthi). My day turned out to be a major disaster un-expectedly. I did not even face many such consequences earlier during my stay at my MIL's home (Mother-In-Law). There were many problems which boomed out in this wonderful day, thereby making me think only about the problem and forget many other important aspects of this day. I guess this is normal human behavior and this temperment is the same for any person as such. I was just thinking to myself that married life is a road with thorns and hard stones in it, however, it depends on how one is able to overcome those and make it a carpet filled with roses. I just faced many problems right from the day begun. I was about to visit Arni today and talk to Jai Ganesh about the wedding plans along with Gokul. This happened as expected, but I started from home at around 10.30 A.M, which I think was too late to start off.

Gokul and I started our journey with few of those horrible village roads. We finally reached there at around 1.30 P.M. Had a excited talk with Jai's family members, got a chance to make a formal pooja to Baba at his house and did eat Kolukattais too (A sweet dish which is famous for Ganesh Chathurthi). Did all these things and went to Devi's house.  She also had a warm welcome aboard and yes, we had a good time for a couple of minutes. It was 6.15 P.M in the evening by then. We felt it was high time we got back home. Started off from Arni just thinking about Baba.

Ohh yes, I forgot to mention the most high-lighted part of the day. It was the major confrontation between me and my husband, that added even more fuel to the fire. However, I thought to myself one thing and that was what I learnt today. On any despairing situation, it is always better to surrender you and your soul to Baba completely rather than questioning him "Why me". I remember a story of an adherent of Baba who gave births to eight children and none of the eight survived more than a couple of days. Instead of questioning Baba about this, the devotee took his last child in to Baba, placed the child on his feet and said, "Baba, whatever we have is yours, if you feel you have to take off the life of this child also, please do it". Is'nt this Bakthi or devotion or love amazing? I feel it is more important to practice the way of living a complete life with peace and harmony. It takes stupendous time and effort to bring out such a practice. Dont you think it makes our life complete and makes us feel near to our Sathguru? I feel it and I did it today. I dont care about the result. All I know is Baba knows what to give for me and when to give. Anything I do is for him and enacted by him. Be it any emotion.

Taking and accepting pain, gives more pleasure than anything else. Relinquish yourself with our Sathguru and he shall show enormous love towards you. With this note, I have yet another incident to be posted in this blog. It resembles a story of Sai Satcharithra. Baba will keep me writing about that too.

Jai Sai Nath

Extended Trunk

Jai Sai Ram

Well, one could probably come to many assumptions after reading the title. Sometimes, I think to myself this is not the apt one and do re-iterate many at times regarding the mis-manipulation. Funny things happen often in our lives. Baba makes us feel funny always by his leelas. Funny is yet another word, making it precise, he makes us happy through his amicable presence to his devotees.

Reffering to the post, this was yet another own experience to see how Baba conveys message to his beloved children. I got a chance to go through one of Sai Devotees' experiences in a blog (I do not remember which one) may be a couple of weeks ago.Went through few posts which were depicting the importance of Sat Charithra Parayanam and other miracles which Baba had done. Came across an interesting post by a female devotee. Am writing what she had mentioned.

"I was a faithful devotee of Lord Ganesha from my childhood. I did not have or love any other God as good as Ganesha. Later on, when days rolled off, I had to face many problems in life which made me loose hope. I somehow came to know about Shirdi Sai Baba and the moment he came into my life, I experienced his miracles and more things. Once, I saw Shirdi Sai Baba serial accidentally and got to notice a Ganesha's picture near Baba's idol in the TV. This made me dumb struck and I looked at Baba's idol in our house. To my surprise, I saw a worm in Baba's nose which appeared like a trunk of Lord Ganesha. I immediately realised that Baba and Ganesha are the same and never thought both were different."

Sneakily, I had to think about this post yesterday when I was busy washing clothes. Just thought to myself that Baba is such a nice Guru and he makes his children happy even in every possible small ways. I had totally forgotten about this incident after this and went to Baba's temple since yesterday was a Thursday. Spoke to Baba in the temple and sung a few songs. I was sitting in the temple for may be 15 minutes. Then happened this miracle. The temple had a huge picture of Baba which hung over the wall. A quiet tall standing pose of Baba in a white attire. I saw a lizard moving up and down on this picture and after a few seconds, this lizard appeared on Baba's face and exactly stood from his nose hanging. There was two surprising factors when this happened, one was the lizard had its tail on Baba's nose and the head part hung towards his chest. The second part was that the lizard did not move even an inch until I came out of that place (I was the only person in the temple).  I did not and I still do not understand what Baba wants to convey to me through this. However, I feel there must be something which is beyond human thinking. He knows when to give what and whom to give too. Just waiting for tomorrow which is Ganesh Chaturthi. May be I will come to know the answer for my question or even I may not. It is my humility to keep posting here whatever happens on Ganesh Chathurthi.

Baba, thanks for all that you have done so far. I firmly trust you and patiently listen to your orders. With all my pride and proud put off on your feet, bowing to you for peace and love.

Sacredly blessed

Om Sai Ram

As the title suggests by itself, I am posting an incident which is related to the topic. I have earlier mentioned about Jai Ganesh, one of my sweet brother. I have also posted an incident as to how Baba came into his life and made changes. I am in kind of posting another interesting, yet amusing incident that happened to him in his house.

It was one fine Thursday when Jai had a chance to visit a Government hospital nearby to see his friend's mother who was sick. He is a light heartened person and cannot take any thing big. It was that day, when two kids were admitted in the same ward due to fire burns in their arms. Jai as usual wasn't able to take it up since he saw it for the first time. He is a Siddha doctor as I stated earlier. He went back home, changed and then sat next to Baba asking him why is he giving a big punishment to small kids. He thought about this and felt he has to do something for it. Prayed to Baba that all kids must recover soon from their ailments.

In hindu mythology, we have a belief that water or food placed before God, becomes to be sacred and we call it Prasadam. I do not know if it is related to any Cosmic theorey or Theorey of Relativity. However, I think it is related to the "Theorey of Divine Belief and Trust". That's how a glass of water placed in front of Baba was made sacred. Again, the word sacred can give us different meanings in different caste or creed. As of I know, a water with "Thulasi" leaves (Basil) is sacred and this is what they offer as "Theertham" in temples down South India. To my and his surprise, the water placed in front of Baba tasted similar to the theertham which is offered in temples. He was surprised since he did not use any Thulasi leaves in it. It was even more surprising that everyone who tasted that water said the same thing. This might be a small incident, but it shows Baba is omnipresent and can make any thing pure and sacred for the sake of his devotees. This came into my mind when I experienced something similar to this. Will keep posting about that as well. Jai Sai Nath.

A Disciple

Om Sai Ram

When wanting to write something about a disciple here, I felt it is apt to choose and know something about a disciple. We all have a common illusion about a disciple. We create our own assumptions about who a disciple will be and whats all he/she has to do in order to attain the love of their "Guru". May be in many terms a disciple may be defined or refined. To Baba, as of I know, it is someone who surrenders him/her completely to him and trust him to the core.

Got to read few stories or Sai leelas in a blog. Came across one and only disciple of Baba Ji by name Upasani Maharaj. Upasani Maharaj was considered to be the only disciple of Baba who dwells (now attained Maha Samadhi) in a place called Sakori. Sakori is very close to Shiridi and Rahatha (where Baba visits often). It is still believed to be a place renowned for its peace and calm environment. Upasani Maharaj stayed in Shiridi with Baba for four years and got enlightened through Baba's principles and preachings. Sakori has an ashram in the name of Upasani Maharaj. I thought I should know few things like this about Baba and his disciples. It makes me feel divine when I write these incidents here, which happened before even I was known to this world. I have a belief that positive vibrations makes us think and act positive. Learnt something new today and got to know about Baba's very countable sishyas. I am trying to make it a point such that I learn something new about Baba everyday and I keep posting here, so that I do not tend to forget any good things in the near future.

Baba, thanks for making me write more about you. Bless me again to write more about such incidents. You still live with us and your feet makes us feel so secured as we were in our mother's womb.

Bowing to peace for all to Shri Sai Nath.

Extending my prayers

Om Sai Ram

Extreme expression of devotion becomes "Love". Love towards God is very childish at times and does not have any intention behind it. Loving our closed ones, known people, pets, mortal things in this world is endless. Loving Guru is something which is beyond the imagination of our normal senses. Baba usually says these words, "Guru and you are one and the same. Trust me as your Guru. Have faith and patience. I shall be there with you always." I do not know what made me write about this devotion and love here. However, I feel this is also Baba who makes me type my words.

Well, its indeed a tough question to answer as to how many of us "Love" our Guru than having the so called "Devotion". May be both sounds similar, but I firmly believe that both has a thin line of difference and as a human, its essential that each one of us know how to differentiate between the two. We usually do many rituals to our beloved God and believe that God will be happy with those offerings. God will be happy, will this make us a good human? Will those rituals be sufficient enough to lead our lives? It is normally said that happiness comes when we make others happy. I now realise that this is the ultimatum of living. Living our life in a proper way means a lot and it means just to have a strong faith in whatever form of God we worship. I had undergone severe ups and downs in my life and never did have a strong life so far. This made me loose hope on God. I was never like how I am now. I see so many changes and strongly believe its all because of Baba. Changing the world doesn't change many things, but changing yourself makes a humpty difference. Albeit, it affects our closed ones. We cannot try to change all creation of God. I am sure that we can change ourselves and our attitude and make others happy. I somehow wanted to write whatever came to my mind and I am happy that I wrote something today. Understanding ourselves and helping others will be the ultimate way to reach Guru and make him happy. Before we could point fingers on others, its better to know if we are the perfect person on earth. We cannot expect Baba to change everyone and everything. Rather, we can try and change ourselves and follow his path. I have decided that I will follow atleast few of his principles. I know I will definitely succeed in this. I trust that if I take a step, Baba takes 100 steps towards guiding me to the right path with enlightment.

If you trust Baba and try to read this post, please think of yourself and re-discover the "Inner" you. This will make Baba happy and he will take you on the right way of understanding what "Devotion" or "Love" means.

I take this as a great time to pray for everyone who is in search of "God" or "Guru". Baba, please take everyone in the right path and make them understand their selves. I bow to you for peace to all. I imagine to myself that you are blessing each one of us with your golden hands. It makes me feel the importance of my birth when I touch your feet. Let everyone feel the same way. Sai Nath Maharaj Ki Jai!

Thanks a million tons Baba

Om Sai Ram

It's a great and good news to me that, Devi's wedding has been approved by the groom (we were actually awaiting his response which was the only thing to be delayed). The next step is to arrange a formal discussion between both the sides. My brother Gokul, will plan for it. With Baba's blessings and grace, I wish things move on extremely well and good. Thanks a lot Baba for approving this and I just dont have any words to express my love for you. I pray for Devi and her future to you. Please do take care of her and her wedding as well. Nothing would have been possible without your blessings in this matter. You made us all involve and act together to make this great thing happen. Baba, once again, Please give me this mental thinking of helping others as far as I can. I should do my best to others with whatever I have. Please please guide me with your love and affection as you care a lot for your children. This is a humble request from one of your child.

P.S. I got the next part of Baba's answer also to be true (he said two people will meet me and I will be happy and will succeed in the matter). Got a chance to meet Prakash and Gopal (two of my husband's friends) and surprisingly Devi's younger sister will tie up with Gopal (as we all wish) once Devi's wedding talks are finalised with parents. Gopal was also okay to this idea. He stays in Andhra Pradesh and I dont know what made him come and see me yesterday. This is also one of Baba's many leelas. I think Baba will make this also happen without any issues. I am pleased that both those girls get a good married life and settles down well. Baba please help for this too, I know am over burdening you, but, you are the only one for us :)

This picture is something good...

Jai Sai Ram

While posting about my known and closed ones experiences, something which came into my mind was this. I took a photo in my house on a Thursday. I usually have a picture of Krishna and a small Baba idol for which I do pooja on thursdays. I simply wanted to click a picture once the pooja was over and I found a small Baba on a sitting pose on Krishna's face. This was quite a small one and one can see Baba only if the picture is zoomed. I did not realise this until I transferred this picture to my laptop. I was surfing to find out some Sai Bhajans in youtube and I found a similar picture where Baba appeared for a Sathyanarayana pooja on Lord Dattatreya's picture. The most surprising aspect of this incident is, I am still not able to see that picture from youtube. After looking at youtube, some thought bulbed my mind which made me feel I should transfer my picture to the laptop. Till now I am not able to find the one which I saw. If you incidently happen to read this post and could find that one for me, I would be pleased with that as well. Spotting off with talks and attaching that miraculous picture (which I feel is miraculous) here. :)

Devi

Om Sai Ram

This is high time I open about this lady whom I have mentioned above. I know it is my duty to let others know few of Sai Leela's which myself and my surroundings have experienced. I have no words to explain Baba's blessings and how it comes true in each and every incident. He makes a promise and that is done. All one need is "Faith" and "Patience". I was an extremely impatient person and just cannot wait for anything to be done. Baba has changed me and made such a patient person now. I am now believed to be one of the "Sathaswaroobi" amongst my known circle. I thank Baba for this as he is the only power behind such a transformation.

I have mentioned about Jai in my previous post. Now, Devi. Devi is someone whom I dont even know and I did not wish to ever know about. She got introduced to me through Jai. Talking about her, she belongs to one of those under povert family in status. I just dont mind about all those, I make friendship easily with someone whom I think deserve mine. She was desparately in need of help - help doesnt mean just giving money during those wanted times, but I think its giving a few consoling words during those most needed times. I did that to Devi. I wanted to talk to her, make her forget all her worries. I was so so surprised to know that she is a normal unmarried lady (spinster in common social terms) who eats only one meal a day. That was simply because of her family situation. Somewhere somehow I started talking to her in a very friendly way. Got a chance to visit her house. I dont understand why I did all these things until Baba made me realise the need of my friendship to her.

Yes, if Baba gives us an introduction to a person, which means he has got something for us. Be it a responsibility or something which is of gain from them or may be just we might seek their help in future. I strongly believe in this. Devi's parents are not in such a situation to get her married. This was because of their family status. And as normal parents they rejected many good alliances because of "Caste". Apart from Jai, I have another sweet brother called Gokul. He is one of those closed ones of mine. Whenever, I am mentally sick, only these two people comes to my rescue. Gokul's elder brother who is in a good job is unmarried. I just wanted to give it a shot to Devi. I know Devi will certainly not agree to this. But, I got some hope that Baba will surely make this happen. With Baba's blessings, I spoke to Jai and Gokul and we all decided that the wedding has to happen opposing Devi's parents. We have all come to a conclusion. The final person to decide was Gokul's brother and his parents. They also have those racial discrimination. Finally, after a bit of talking I made Gokul's mother accept this. And to my surprise Gokul's brother (Gopi) also was okay with this.

This is all Baba's blessings and just cannot happen like that. I usually take Baba's answers when I am pretty confused. He either gives me a solution through dreams or I take his answer book and seek his guidance. When I opened his answer book asking him the question of Devi's wedding, his answer was this: 

"Work will be done with help from Western direction. You will be happy by meeting two persons. You will succeed. Sister will meet."

As soon as I got this answer within a matter of five mins, I got a call from Jai (Jai is in Arni, which is western direction of Kanchipuram). Jai gave me a happy news saying Devi was convinced and that she is okay with the wedding. So, my first one is over. I am still waiting for the rest of his answers and I know it will happen. I feel Baba is making me involve in these things on his behalf. I am not such a great person, but an adrent devotee of Baba. I know his blessings are always there with me and I know this wedding will happen without any hassles.

Baba, I am waiting for the rest of your answers to come true. I know it will happen. So far, things are fine. Please make Devi and Gopi meet each other and please bless them with a good married life. I know Devi has struggled a lot during her whole life. Please make her live happily and give her a good future through Gopi. I bow to you and humbly request you for this. Sabka Malik Ekh, but you are my God. Please make things happen in a good way.

I know its too early to post this incident here, since its not yet over. However, I wanted to post everything which happens merely through Baba's blessings. All these things as on date happened through his blessings. I wish that girl gets a good life and all her sins and struggles comes to an end.

Jai Ganesh

Om Sai Ram

Looking at the title, one would probably imagine this could be something related to Lord Ganesha. However, its my duty to correct imagination here. Its actually the name of my brother (not my blood relation though). I feel proud that I know such a great person in my life and that am one of his closed ones. He treats me as if he knew me for years together. I knew him for a year since now and he has shown so many drastic changes that one might not even think of!! Last year I knew him as an ordinary man and now changed into a Saint like person. His life is simple, humble, transparent with loads of good people around him. He has transformed into a "Sivan Adiyar" (a humble devotee of Lord Siva), thereby changing his entire style of living too. If you wish to see him, you can notice him in white clothes and he is a Siddha doctor as well. He prescribes medicinces to many people known to him and surprisingly they all turn to be well (I was one of those patients in earlier days).

Spotting on and now to the business. Its still a miracle on how Baba showed so many things in his life. He was am ardent lover of Lord Siva and never talks about anyone else. He believes that Siddhars (18 great people who are still believed to be alive) have appeared in front of him during his meditations. One question is still un-answerable. How did Baba choose to go to him. May be the answer is simple, but I am not in such a great situation to get into small nothings. To me, if Baba wishes to shower his blessings on someone, he will be present with them in any form. Thats how Jai got a picture of Baba from one of his friend. Surprisingly it was a thursday when Baba went to Jai's house. He says he forgot to notice Baba for a week since he came. Baba still does his own work once he enters a house (this is true from my own experience), he made Jai to take a 7 days vrath (7 days fast) starting Friday and ending on Thursday. Jai had only one intention beind his fast. He wanted a copy of Satcharithra through someone during the 5th day of his fast.

And yes, Baba sent him a copy of Satcharithra through his friend again. This was something un-expected. That too getting a copy of Satcharithra is not such an easy thing and again reading it is not such a simple thing that anyone could do. I remember one of my brother (again not my own one) saying he still haven't got that opportunity to read Satcharithra. I wanted to offer him a copy, but he was somehow not interested or may be Baba didnt want him to read that then. Jai again was stuck with happiness and he trusted that some divine power has made him feel so. He wanted to get an answer from Baba for one of his problems. Baba has insisted him to learn astrology. This has not begun as on date. Baba will surely give him another opportunity wherein he can learn astrology or palmistry through someone he knows. I pray Baba that he should be able to overcome his troubles and Baba should give him all divine blessings in his life.

I am sure he can help others if he is in a position to offer help. Baba will give him everything he needs and bless him such that others are benefited through him. He has done something good in his present and past births which has made him think about Baba and got his blessings. This is the entry of Baba in Jai's life. Baba has done many more things in his life which was again a miracle. Will keep posting new things here in the near future.

Baba please help people to get away from their ignorance. Make them utter your name atleast once in their life time. Bowing to you for peace.

Jai Sai Nath

This is again a new begining....

Om Sai Ram

This is yet another humble and devotional experience which I am about to share here. Before getting into details, I would like to say one thing regarding this blog. I am immensely blessed to have started such a blog and happy to share it with whomever I know. However, I dont write here too frequently such that many things posted here are related to my own experiences. I did not want to take a chance of mis-representing others' life here. However, people known to me has to be acknowledged and I feel this is one such divine situation where I can feel Baba's powers on others as well. I feel happy to the core when others talk something about Baba and when they say that Baba made their lives change.

So far, I had written my own blahhhhhh.... I did not bother much about the choice of words nor about the way it was written. Now that I have to write about someone else, I feel I must take more care and be more apt in my choice of words too! Many small things makes huge difference. This blog will now be more professional and I shall post many more incidents, miracles, turning points of whomsoever I know. Again, this is just a small part from my end, since I am no such great human to write about Baba.

I am going to start a new journey from now on.. I will take all efforts to make it happen and I will surrender myself completely to Shri Sai Nath such as Hemadpant (the author of Satcharithra) did. Will have to gather more information and this makes me feel even more responsible as a human being. I am fortunate, that I have been given such an amazing opportunity to write about Shri Sai Nath. I feel am blessed rather than calling myself lucky.

Will keep writing.... This time stories would be different!!!
