    Explanation for 108 Potrigal’s

    1. OM SAINATHA POTRI OM
    Om Sai Natha (Lord Sai) Be Praised Om

    When Baba reached Shirdi, Mahalsapati, the temple priest welcomes Baba by calling him “Ya Sai”- meaning “Welcome Sai”. “Sai “means a realised soul, a Saint and a mahaan. “Natha” means master. Our praise begins with honouring our master (Guru) as “Sai Natha”

    2. OM DAKSHINAMOORTHY DATTA AVATARA POTRI OM
    Om The incarnation of Dakshinamoorthy and Dattatreya Be Praised Om
    Lord Shiva as the ultimate Guru has taken the form of Dakshinamoorthy.“Dakshin “means south and in this form Lord Shiva faces south. Baba is considered as an incarnation of Lord Dakshinamoorthy. “Dattatreya” is that form of God worshipped by all saints for ultimate realisation. In thIs form the powers of Lord Shiva, Vishnu and Brahma are combined, enabling the seeker to transcend the duality of creation, Our Baba is again considered as the incarnation of Lord Dattatreya. Hence this praise that our Baba is both Dakshinamoorthy and Dattatreya.

    3. OM SAAGARA SAIYEA POTRI OM
    Om Saagara Sai (Ocean of mercy) Be Praised Om
    “Saagar” means ocean. There is a temple dedicated to Baba on the seashore near Chennai and here He has taken his abode as “Saagar Sai”. Indeed He is an ocean of mercy and helps His devotees to traverse the ocean of samsara. Thus this chant is appropriate.

    4. OM PANDARIPURA VITTALE POTRI OM
    Om Pandaripura Vittale Be Praised Om
    Pandaripur is in Maharashtra State and Lord Vishnu has taken abode here as Vittal – the one who stands on a brick (Vit) at the behest of His devotee who is immersed in the discharge of his daily duties to his parents. Baba indeed preaches the same and no wonder Baba is “Vittala” for all of us.

    5. OM VENKATA SMARANA POTRI OM
    Om The very thought of Lord Venkata Be Praised Om
    Venkata is the name for Lord Balaji. Venkata is the shortened form of Venkateswara Perumal – Lord of Thirumalai. It is believed that our Baba derives a direct lineage from Lord Balaji and hence our Baba is considered as the very thought of our Lord Balaji.

    6. OM KRISHNA RAMA SIVA MARUTHI ROOPA POTRI OM
    Om The form of Krishna, Rama, Shiva and Maruthi Be Praised Om
    Our Baba is the Collective representation of all God forms worshipped. He is thus, Krishna, Rama, Shiva and Maruthi. Maruthi is the name of Hanuman.

    7. OM ERAIVAN ORUVANE ENBAI POTRI OM
    Om One who affirms that God is but one Be Praised Om
    Baba has always been exhorting His devotees thus: “Sab ka Malik ek” – There is but one master for all. In this praise , Baba’s this famous saying is included to bring about this wisdom among all his devotees.

    8. OM PIRAVI PINI THEERPAI POTRI OM
    Om One who quells the disease of birth Be Praised Om
    “Piravi” means Birth. “Pini” means disease. When a devotee approaches Baba He cancels both the positive and negative karmas enabling the devotee’s easy realisation of God.

    9. OM MADHANGALAI KADANTHA MAHAANE POTRI OM
    Om One who has transcended all religions Be Praised Om
    Baba is indeed beyond religions. He allowed His devotees to perform all rituals and celebrate all functions as appropriate to one’s religious faith. But Baba was beyond religion as the boat of religion is not needed for the master who has already crossed over.

    10. OM NAGA SAIYEA POTRI OM
    Om One who has given dharshan in snake form Be Praised Om
    “Naga” means snake. In us, the vital energy is deemed to rest in a coiled form as “Kundalini” and is likened to a snake form. It is also believed that cosmic intelligence which is the basis of creation, flows through us with the help of this Kundalini Sakthi,. Thus all Hindu Gods adorn snake representing the creative power of the Gods. Baba verily is that creative force and He took the form of a cobra for dharshan to His devotees in Coimbatore - the famous industrial town of South India. Thus Baba is known as “Naga Sai”

    11. OM VENDUVOR THUYAR THEERKUM YOGIYE POTRI OM
    Om One who removes the grief of the seekers Be Praised Om and is a yogi
    The role of a Guru is to remove the darkness of illusion of His disciples. The true seekers are those who await enlightenment, and once the goal is reached, there is no more grief which is a product of desire and ignorance. This state is given only when the disciples seek this state and Baba is ever ready to grant this wish. In a material sense, Baba wants us to express our needs to Him and not to remain silent that “Baba knows what my needs are”. This is because our minds are full of good and bad thoughts and thus Baba does not probe them. “Knock and it shall open ; Seek and it shall be given” is true of our Baba.

    12. OM SHIRDIVASAA SIDDHESWARA POTRI OM
    Om One who resides in Shirdi and One who is the Be Praised Om
    Lord of Siddhi. Shirdi is the place where Baba lived and His mortal remains are interred there. While living, Baba had assured His devotees that He will be active and continue to take care of them from his “Samadhi” and thus to us Baba still resides in Shirdi. Baba’s power to manifest things (Siddhi) for His devotees is unquestionably large and truly He has lordship over this power. Thus He is called “Siddheswara” – the Lord of Siddhi.

    13. OM ARPUDANGAL SEIYUM ANDAVA POTRI OM
    Om One who wroughts miracles Be Praised Om
    Baba has performed many miracles. Even to this day such miracles continue and the true believer is constantly blessed. The only condition for the miracles to be witnessed lies in one’s faith in the power of Baba to work out a miracle. You believe that the impossible is possible for Baba and presto, the impossible has now become possible for the devotee. Verily He is God incarnate. In this praise, this power of Baba is expressed.

    14. OM MUKTHIKU VAZHI KATTUM MUNIVA POTRI OM
    Om The saint who shows the path of liberation Be Praised Om
    The ultimate purpose of human birth is to achieve liberation from the cycle of birth and death. Whilst taking care of our worldly needs Baba the great saint that He is, also leads one at his own pace towards liberation. Ordinarily , such task is undertaken by a saint only towards His initiated disciples. Baba offers this priceless gift to all those who have reached his domain and who have laid faith in Him.

    15. OM ULLATHIN ULLE URAIBAVARE POTRI OM
    Om The one who is the indweller in one’s heart Be Praised Om
    God lives indeed within and not without. Baba resides in one’s heart, meaning that He resides in one’s heart as an expression of love and compassion. By constantly expressing these virtuous emotions, Baba’s presence in one’s heart can be experienced.

    16. OM ANANDAMAYAM ANAVARE POTRI OM
    Om One who is always blissful Be Praised Om
    Baba is “Bliss” incarnate. It is said that the true nature of a person is to always remain in a state of bliss and driven by desires, attachment and illusion this true nature does not surface. Baba’s bliss is infectious and by constantly remembering Baba one reaches this blissful state eventually.

    17. OM SHARAN ADAINDORAI KAAPAVARE POTRI OM
    Om One who saves those who surrender to you Be Praised Om
    The savior of the one who has surrendered means that Baba comes to rescue only when one’s awareness of “Self” is obliterated and unbounded faith on Baba is reposed. Baba saves those who have no egoistic pretensions. It is not the expression of this mental state this is important but, the genuine internal feeling of this state of surrender.

    18. OM YAMIRUKA BAYAMEN ENBAVARE POTRI OM
    Om One who says “Why fear when I am here” Be Praised Om
    All righteous actions cease once fear grips a person. All undesirable qualities such as greed, possessiveness, anger, utterance of lies and expressions of falsehood etc emerge. Once fear is removed, the natural human traits emerge. Thus full reliance on Baba showed help to overcome the debilitating emotion of fear. Baba’s saying, “Why fear when I am here” means, one should feel Baba’s presence by one’s side always, so that fear does not surface. Also Baba takes care of our worldy needs and thus on this count fear is unwarranted.

    19. OM VISHNUNAMA PARAYANA PRIYARE POTRI OM
    Om One who enjoys the chanting of Vishnu’s names Be Praised Om
    Among the trinity, Lord Vishnu takes on the role of protector. Vishnu’s sacred names called the “Vishnu Sahasranamam” (1008 names of Lord Vishnu) is a rare find as Lord Vishnu Himself listened intently to the chant of these names. This is explained in the great epic “Mahabaratha”. Small wonder then, Baba an incarnation of Lord Vishnu wants a replay of the same and He is intently interested in listening to the same.


    20. OM CHITHIRATHIL UYIRUDAN PESUM DEIVAME POTRI OM
    Om One who speaks in life form from pictures and Be Praised Om

    Paintings

    Baba appears in flesh and blood and speaks to the devotee emerging from His pictures. This has been witnessed many a time by several of Baba’s devotees. Baba can manifest Himself anytime, anywhere as He is omnipresent. Baba really resides everywhere and this realisation is focussed on the devotee so that he will desist from any wrong doings as he would see Baba in flesh and blood in His pictures.

    21. OM MAYAIYAI VIRATUBAVARE POTRI OM
    Om One who drives off the illusion of existence Be Praised Om
    The power of illusion is so great it is virtually impossible to dispel it on one’s own effort. Everytime an effort is made , the power of illusion gets reinforced as all efforts are but only the forces of such illusion. Thus without the help of the Guru, one cannot transcend this state. This is done by our Baba who drives away the illusion of corporeal existence of His devotee.

    22. OM KANDRISHTI PILLISUNIYAM THEERPAVARE POTRI OM
    Om The remover of evil eye, bad vibes, curses and Be Praised Om
    Effects of black magic
    Human beings suffer the ill effects of evil eye, black magic etc. Apart from the agony of suffering caused by such negative forces, the devotee also has no energy left for self -development. Baba by His infinite compassion wipes out such propensities, preparing the necessary favorable conditions for the devotee to turn towards Him i.e towards Godhood.

    23. OM BRAHMAGNANAM ALIPAVARE POTRI OM
    Om The giver of the ultimate knowledge called Be Praised Om
    “Brahmagnanam”
    The answer to the question “Who am I ? “ is not easily found. The realisation of the true self and its eternal relationship to the creator is achieved through a process of experience. It is not a text book knowledge. Baba leads to this ultimate goal of human birth and promise of this knowledge called “Brahmagnanam” is rarely given by Saints. However, to the true devout Baba promises this knowledge.

    24. OM GURUVARA DEVA POTRI OM
    Om The ruler of Guruvaar (Thursdays) Be Praised Om
    Thursdays are auspicious for the Guru. For, this day is ruled by Baba as the “devata” (an aspect of God or cosmic intelligence) to lead humanity towards Godhead. Thursday is known as “Guruwar” – and Baba devotees offer special prayers to Baba on this day.

    25. OM SAMSAARA BHAYANGALAI POKUBAVARE POTRI OM
    Om The remover of the burden of wordly care and Be Praised Om
    Concerns
    If one is caught inextricably in the tasks of wordly cares and concerns , there will be not much time left for a person to develop spiritually. Baba takes the load off the mind of the devotee on wordly care and concerns to enable him to turn towards God. All wordly issues are taken care of by Baba without a doubt and the fear of a householder thus gets removed for enabling the individual to progress forward.

    26. OM DHUNIYIN UDIYE MARUNDENBAI POTRI OM
    Om One who prescribed as medicine the Be Praised Om
    Sacred ash from the fire-place (Dhuni )
    Baba had a fire place going continuously in Shirdi and this is called “Dhuni”. He offered the ashes from this fire place as cure for all malady afflicting mankind. The concept of ash as a cure has a deep rooted meaning. Man is reduced to ashes and there lies his destiny. He emerges from these ashes as an evolving soul and this purpose is propogated by Baba. The “Dhuni” represents the eternal flame of “God” burning inside us and honouring the same removes the afflictions.

    27. OM PRARTHANAIKU ELAGUVAI POTRI OM
    Om One who melts in compassion when Be Praised Om
    Prayers are praised

    God does not need anything from us except our deep and sincere love. This love is expressed as prayers. Prayers are not demands on God. True prayers are supplication of God’s will and seeking God’s help to follow His will. Baba is so easily moved by such a sincere prayer, that He rushes with compassion to take care of His devotees material and spiritual needs.

    28. OM ELIMAI VADIVAANAI POTRI OM
    Om One who remains simple and plain Be Praised Om
    Even though Baba is the very repository of all material wealth, He always adorned himself in simple clothes and His demeanour was plain and straight thus identifying with the “have-nots “who comprise the majority of the world population. Baba indirectly teaches the “haves” amongst us to show concern and care towards the less fortunate brothern.

    29. OM SAKALALOGA SANCHARIYE POTRI OM
    Om One who travels through all the worlds Be Praised Om
    It is believed that there are several worlds, and Baba travels through these worlds taking care of the devotees even after they leave their mortal remains on this earth.

    30. OM MUKKALAMUM UNARDAVARE POTRI OM
    Om One who knows the past present and future Be Praised Om
    Past, Present and Future are but three “time” states and Baba has the power to know about the past of a devotee that led to his present state and also forsee how he will be moving into the future. As He knows what future holds, Baba by virtue of His power, prevents an unhappy event of the future for His devotee and ensures a happy life here in and here after.

    31. OM MUMMOORTHIYIN THIRU URAVE POTRI OM
    Om One who is verily the form of Trinity (Brahma, Be Praised Om
    Vishnu,Shiva)
    “Brahma” is in charge of creation, “Vishnu” is in charge of preservation and “Shiva” is incharge of dissolution. The last function is necessary so that cyclically the above activities can go on. Baba has absolute control over all these three states and He has demonstrated it time and again. Therefore verily He is the form and content of the “Trinity” – Brahma, Vishnu and Shiva.

    32. OM SAKALA JEEVANGALILUM IRUPAI POTRI OM
    Om One who resides in all life forms Be Praised Om
    As per Hindu thought , cosmic conciousness called “Atman” is present in all life forms - in the lower life forms as a collective force and in the higher forms as an independantly identified entity. Baba being that cosmic conciousness is thus present in all living beings. When one of His devotees offered a piece of bread to a hungry dog, Baba acknowledged it as having been offered to Him, thus demonstrating His immanence in all life forms.

    33. OM MOONDRAM PIRAIYIL KAATCHI THARUVAI POTRI OM
    Om One who appears on the cresent moon Be Praised Om
    The crescent moon, represents the mind of an advanced soul when ego is fully absent , whilst mind exists only to keep the body and soul together. Thus Shiva has the crescent moon on His head and in Islam crescent moon is venerated as a symbol of “Allah”. Baba appears as the crescent moon meaning that He resides in those who have shed their ego fully and are on the road to spiritual advancement and liberation.

    34. OM MUNDAYA VINAIGALAI ARUPAVARE POTRI OM
    Om One who chops off past karmas Be Praised Om
    As one’s mind is never quiet, karmas or past karmas cannot be nullified by human effort alone One needs the grace of the Guru for wiping off the Karmas fully as an external aid , and Baba as Guru indeed plays this role.

    35. OM OMSAIRAM MANDHIRATHIN SAKTHIYE POTRI OM
    Om the energy giver to the mantra “Om Sai Ram” Be Praised Om
    “OM SAI RAM” is the mantra chanted by Baba devotees. Baba stands behind this mantra as the life giver to enable His devotees to benefit from this chant.

    36. OM MADHA VERUPAADUGALAI KALAINDHAI POTRI OM
    Om The one who discarded the differing religious tenets Be Praised Om
    Religious tenets are propounded for the followers to take a specific vehicle towards the ultimate destination of reaching God. This is done only to suit the past vasanas of the individuals and the vehicle is to be left behind once the destination is reached and one should ready himself for the final purpose of the journey to see God. This does not happen however. Due to ignorance and weakness , religious tenets are held on so strongly that they inhibit the spiritual development of a devotee. Baba helps his devotees to transcend the limitations of these tenets for and behalf of His devotees.

    37. OM UNMAI ANBUKKU MAGIZHBAVARE POTRI OM
    Om One who turns happy by true love Be Praised Om
    The only expectation of God from His creation is the expressions of true love towards the creator. God has everything ; He gives us everything. The only thing He expects is our true love towards Him. Given the “freewill” the creation has a choice to express this love and Baba being the very incarnation of God, is moved to extreme happiness when true love is expressed towards Him by His devotee.

    38. OM ANNA BABAVE POTRI OM
    Om One who is the provider of food Be Praised Om
    All life forms survive by energy consumption and this is called food. “Annam” in sanskrit is easily digestible food and thus equal to energy. Baba gives us our daily bread so that we survive and thus our welfare is taken care of by Him. He is thus called “Anna Baba”

    39. OM ILLARAMUM NALLARAME ENRAI POTRI OM
    Om One who extols the merits of a householder Be Praised Om
    Should one become an ascetic to reach the abode of God? Baba extols the status of a householder who keeps his wits about and progresses both materially and spiritually - The former, for the phenomenal world to go on and the latter for personal growth.Baba guides His devotees to win the war in the battlefield of life itself, instead of suggesting isolation, for in isolation one’s mind could stray towards the wordly temptations afterall!

    40. OM ELAMAYILAE THURAVIANAI POTRI OM
    Om One who turned a sanyasin when young Be Praised Om
    Baba took to Sanyas while He was young. Even so, He remained in Shirdi amidst people there to guard and guide His devotees who belonged to His family. He was thus demonstrating that householders could also similarly engage themselves in worldly activities without getting involved in them at the cost of spiritual advancement.

    41. OM ULAGELLAM UN NAMAME POTRI OM
    Om The whole world reverberates thy name Be Praised Om
    Baba means Father. The whole world calls God the father and thus Baba’s name reverberates in the whole world , day in and day out.

    42. OM DAKSHINAI PRIYARE POTRI OM
    Om One who likes receiving dakshina (Master’s fees) Be Praised Om
    Baba collects “Master’s Fee” called “Dakshina” only to enable Him to return the fee thus collected manifold to His devotees in the form of grace, bliss and material prosperity. Only when a seed is sowed , a tree grows to yield fruits. The “Dakshina” or “Master’s fee is sowing of such seeds. It should be noted that a devotee could offer only that much alone as graced by Baba and no more !.

    105. OM RADHAKRISHNA SEETHARAMA LAKSHMI POTRI OM
    NARAYANA
    Om Radhakrisha, Seetharama, Lakshminarayana Be Praised Om
    Baba is worshipped as Mother by many. Baba has always encouraged women in the participation of social , spiritual and religious activities, teaching the menfolk to respect and regard women. Thus Baba is rightly Radha-Krishna, Seetha-Rama, and Lakshmi-Narayana – the “Sakthi” behind the male forms of Lord Vishnu.

    106. OM SRINIVASA SRIVENKATESA SRIRANGA POTRI OM
    Om Srinivasa, Srivenkatesa, Sriranga Be Praised Om
    Baba is “Srinivasa” – Lord Vishnu in whom “Sri” resides. Baba is “Sri Venkatesa “– the mountain God Venkatesa to whose lineage Baba belongs. Baba is “Sri Ranga” - Lord Vishnu who lies on the snake bed of “aadisesha” in the ocean of milk with Goddess Lakshmi in attendance and Lord Brahma emerging from his navel. Thus Baba is the power source in its entirety of Lord Vishnu.

    107. OM SIVARUPA HARIHARA SUBRAMANYA POTRI OM
    Om Shivaroopa , Harihara, Subramanya Be Praised Om
    Baba is “Shivaroopa”. He is the combination of Vishnu and Shiva called Harihara or Lord Ayyappa. Baba is “Subramanya” – the lord who has six faces and six sacred shrines and exhibits valor and the very controller of the serpent energy.

    108. OM SAKALAMUM SATGURU SAIROOPAME POTRI OM
    Om All and everything indeed is your form Be Praised Om
    Satguru Sai
    “Sat” means Truth. “Guru” means one who removes the darkness. Thus the Satguru is one who removes the karma and leads one to the eternal truth viz towards God. Baba thus guarantees to all His devotees “Moksha” and thus it is only appropriate He is venerated as Satguru. Glory be to our Satguru – our dear Baba Maharaj.
