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
