A Question.. pls answer?

Jai Sai Ram

Somebody asked a question about and I guess we can share some light on it as well:

Sai Ram Ravi Vermaji!!!!
 
I was told via the grape vine to read the Sai Satchrita which I did.  I enjoyed the literature in it but one thing I don't understand is about Baba's Handi feeding.
 
If as Baba said he lives in every being whether an animal or human then how can he go and buy meat and feed the people. That portion doesn't make any sense to me. When an animal eats Baba gets full then how can he feed them to other people. This thought has confuse me and that's why I am writing to you.
 
Maybe you can enligthen me further on this.
 
But there is something that Baba and I have in common that is we live to support others and not ourselves. But only difference is that Baba was God's messenger so he could accomplish his mission easily but I am a normal human being and I am struggling to that.
 
But after your inspiration Ravi Verma I know may not today but someday Baba will open my way.
 
Sai Ram

RAVI ji

A tricky question to answer, the moment I read the question, I felt BABA asking me that do GODS live in the body?  BABA resides in every SOUL. We meaning people whomsoever eats the animal eat the flesh of the animal. Having taken a place in our heart and mind (the SOUL ) baba belches as if he has been fed when fed to the animal.

SOULS always remain intact generation after generation and traverse from one body to another if I am not not wrong. But Brothers and sisters may have different Views of interpreting. Let us wait and update ourselves as I think BABA himself has risen this question through you to enlighten all of us.

Baba gives you great jobs to shoulder and may BABA give you the strength to shoulder them too.

In the process of answering if I am wrong or hurts some one may i pls be excused.

OM SAI RAM,

Thats a really tricky and interesting question....but i am sure BABA has a reason for everything...think of this

By feeding meat to someone, BABA ensures that the one who eats has his stomach full, but then why does he let an animal killed for it.....the answer could be that the sufferings of that soul trapped in the animal's body were to come to an end....and the animal was to get a human birth......we all know that the Hindu dharma believes that a soul has to undergo 84 lakh births before getting a human birth.....

So, the animal being killed was maybe for the betterment of that soul

This is what came to my mind, please forgive me if i am wrong...

According to Meher Baba, when an avatar manifests, he operates in two modes. 1. Conscious of his full divinity 2. He shields himself with a veil of ignorance like us so that he can get down to the levels of people around him to communicate better. He removes this veil himself when needed. So his physical life alternates between these two modes. When Baba is doing trivial things like getting meat he's operating in his second mode. He does so because his mission is to personify divinity from a common man's life perspective. He’s also favoring the animal butchered from lower Karmic cycle to give it better body. This is also hinted in SSC when  Baba shows special favor by eating food prepared by lady, Shama complains to which Baba replies she served me as a cow by giving milk in her previous birth. Redemption is clearly available to animals much like humans.
All IMHO.

Om Sai Ram,

This question has answer in itself.  Baba had given money for meat(food).  We should remember that food is always food whether it is in veg form or non-veg form. trees/plants also have life and in hindu religion we also worship trees/plants. We get our food through vegetables/grains. But the difference is only that it is primary stage food whereas meat is secondary stage food item. So there is nothing wrong for using meat as food item. This is also notable that there is life circle on the earth which should be strictly adhered to otherwise it may imbalance nature. (This is happening nowadays and what is result ? We all know this). This is all God's creation. One who take birth has to die and the way one die is also fixed by god. What is cow milk ? The cycle is that on earth no body is independent. Everybody whether nature, animal or human being is dependent on each other.
