Shirdi Sai 's Message

[SS91]

1) My children are like flying kites, I am the chakri (bobin) in the hands of my children which will be used to keep the twine (life) in order.



2) You need not go to Haridwar to have the darshan of hari. Hari is in shirdi. You need not go to shirdi to have the darshan of hari. Hari is in the temple. You need not go to the temple to have the darshan of hari.hari is in your mind. Open the dwar (gate) of your mind and have the darshan of hari.


3) In the process of earning money. If you deviate from the good path it will be bad to your life. In the process of earning blessings from the god. If you deviate from the bad path, it will be good to your life.


4) The cool breeze from the divine ocean of 'sai' does not discriminate the people living in high rise buildings and low level hutments. It is the same for all.


5) Both rich and poor equally experience the sweet taste of cherry fruit. So is divine love of 'sai'.

6) For a man on the path of divinity, the desire for money is of nuisance value. Earn money only to the extent required to sustain the physical bodily needs.


7) I accept the fasting you under take on my name, provided you offer those days food to a needy – hungry person.

.

Peace of mind does not flow from liquor of toddy. Peace comes only after all the responsibilities of life are fulfilled and constant Nama parayana of " Sai ’’ Every minute is under taken.


9) The last rites performed on an orphan are equivalent to thousand dips taken in sacred rivers. Purity of heart is same as visit to a holly place.


10) The desire for money and materials is transforming saviors of lives to its detractors. It is then I shall guard and protects my devotees from their clutches.

11) Victory and defeat are the two facets of the same coin. Wrestling was organized during sree ramanavami festival only to preach that both are same and inseparable.



12) Man does not mind touching the feet of any body for the sake of worldly pleasures. None realize and understand when I say that only " Lotus feet of lord " can grant what you need and is required.



13) Never hate the rich nor ill treat the poor. They are the result of karmic deeds of the previous births. Therefore act now for better fruits in the next of life cycle.



14) Speaking to bygone friends is like replay of old memories. They are of the "past" and unsuitable to be the "present".



15) "Head" of the family cancatter equally to the needs of all his dependants. But when they are full of greed and mutual hatred, They cannot be loyal to earn confidence of the "head". Give least importance, as it has been the order always.



16) "Trust in god" was always my preaching. I propagated "belief" is the building block in life and now apart of the soil of "shirdi". If you believe in this, make your own building block and receive divine blessings.



17) Illness and injury to the body are always painful- limited to physical body only. The duty of the soul shall be to reduce the body's discomfort. Pacify the body just as a mother consoles a crying child.



18) Clothing and application of fragrances to the body are superficial, neither their application nor removal make any difference to the soul. Sorrow and happiness are a state of mind and relative feelings. If in search of the ultimate happiness, wisdom, and Goal, come to me for I shall guide and show you the path.



19) Some people with "YOGASIDDHI" can subject their bodies to freezing ice/burning fire with equal ease, where as a "gnani" - the elevated soul uses his body and energies in the services of the almighty to become a "yogi".



20) Come to me with all your ignorance without attachment to self. I shall remove "agnana" and transform to kindle the light of wisdom and sense of duty in you.

22) Life with wife is like sweet sugar. Adultry is like diabetics to the body. Why to invite such a situation and spoil life.



23) If you want to forget the past, distance from the people in the past only time is the best heal. Do not spoil the present and future with bitter past.



24) I served my two sons with one glass of same raw milk to each. One of them consumed straight and could feel the presence of "BRAHMAN". The other son had the patience to boil, cool and curd it. Further he churned the cream so obtained. Extracted butter out of it and made pure ghee. With this ghee he lit the "LIGHTS OF WISDOM"andcould see "PARABRAHMAN"



25) Materials and money attract friends like ants to Jaggery. Where as "ADHYATAM (SPRITUALISM) in you draws the attention of 'SAMRADHA SADGURU" who would put you on the path of right cousness to finally grant eternal bliss.



26) When you taste the "NECTAR" or true "BLISS" do not confine it to yourself. Pass it on to others without adulteration and claiming returns.



27) Preaching of my philosphy in high level language isconfined to few like fish in a well of sweet water on the other hand preaching in simple language is received in large numbers like fish in an Ocean.


28) "VEDAS, UPANISHADS, AND SHASTRAS" are all sacred and pure rivers ultimately joining the "SEA" Living a midst the "OCEAN OF SAI" and searching for them has no meaning.



29) No point in counting the number of times "SATCHARITA" is read what matters most is the feel of experience and incidents which help to remove "AHANKARA" (EGO).

45) While in search of the ultimate depend only on yourself. At the end experience will be that of sweet water drawn from a well. Depending on others will be like chasing a "MIRAGE" rudderless no point in running after illusions.

47) You may display your riches to the society. But never exhibit in public the "GRACE of LORD". It is unpardonable gesture from your side.



48) Do not fall prey to those who claim to gift you with "SADHGATHI" (Attainment of Lord). It is to be obtained only by self efforts. "GRACE OF LORD" can only grant it.



49) Just as a prematurely delivered baby has no option to re-enter the mother's womb, once born there is no course except to complete all the assigned duties and responsibilities. It is also impossible to make every one to like for a hundred years.


50) Man can fly in an aircraft so long as fuel in it is sufficient to safe land. In the same way to be in position is destined for the specific period. The desire to be in power till the last moment of life is like flying in a fuel-less aircraft to be forced to ground.

82) You are the only a witness to the past happenings in your life. Never give credence or value to them. Believe and hope for better future and live peacefully.



83) Cultivate the habit of standing on your own feet in life. Once you realize your own strength, you need not look for any favours externally.



84) If you worship a person he will treat you like a slave. If you worship God, he will stand before you always ready to extend a helping hand.



85) Lack of knowledge is the root of all the sexual disorders. Living in darkness is the cause for one to be in a bad company. Lack of understanding is the main reason for disharmony in a marriage. Divorce is never a solution for it.



86) Man compromises with the impeding ups and downs, to continue the journey of life. Do the same when you face chronic Health problems, instead of developing suicidal tendencies. It is a great sin to commit suicide. Ups and downs in life and health related problems are all a result of our own karmic deeds. The earlier we realize this ground reality the better it is.

92) The parents recognize the appetite of children. They are nourished with due care for a happy and healthy growth. On similar lines, I know what is good for my devotees. Accordingly I advise them to be good to themselves and to the society as well.



93) Life is comparable to the planet Earth spinning around it and rotating round the Sun through the ages. Happiness symbolizes days and sorrow the nights. Journey through life is a continuous process. The sensitivity to a given situation depends upon how thick skinned one is. Happiness and sorrow are two faces of the same coin (life) and are purely a matter of personal experience and concern. Resort to Sai for the desired protection against all odds to enlighten the individual spiritually where every thing appears on the same plane.

98) The only tools with which couples can solve their marital disputes are self-introspection and prayer. Any external interference will only lead to inviting further problems. Seeking divorce and legal separation multiplies the miseries of the begotten children amounts to doing grave injustice to them.



 

99) ‘God’ has created Man and Woman with equal amount of inner strength but with different amounts of physical strengths. One should never indulge in establishing superiority over the other.



 

100) It is always better to keep away from bad habits rather than keeping away from people with bad habits.



101) It is not a sin to make money in life but it will be foolish to run only after money.
