Shirdi Sai Thought!

[Dipika]

If you are wealthy, be humble. Plants bend when they bear fruit.

Spend money in charity; be generous and munificent but not extravagant.

Get on with your worldly activities cheerfully, but do not forget God.

Do not kick against the pricks of life.

Whatever creature comes to you, human or otherwise, treat it with consideration.

Do not be obsessed by the importance of wealth.

See the divine in the human being.

Do not bark at people and don’t be aggressive, but put up with others’ complaints.

There is a wall of separation between oneself and others and between you and me. Destroy this wall!

Give food to the hungry, water to the thirsty, and clothes to the naked. Then God will be pleased.

Saburi (patience) ferries you across to the distant goal.

I am the slave of those who hunger and thirst after me and treat everything else as unimportant.

Whoever makes me the sole object of their love, merges in me like a river in the ocean.

Look to me and I will look to you.

What God gives is never exhausted, what man gives never lasts.

Be contented and cheerful with what comes.

My devotees see everything as their Guru.

Poverty is the highest of riches and a thousand times superior to a king’s wealth.

Put full faith in God’s providence.

Baba once said to Pille "We can get rid of our sins of previous Janmas (lives) by suffering only. Our actions in previous Janmas are responsible for our present sorrows or happiness. I can reduce the period of sufferings of Sanchita Karma of 10 previous Janmas to 10 days". Can it possible for ordinary yogi to do so ? i.e., giving remission in the period of sufferings for sins committed in prior Janmas (Birth). It is that Satguru only can do such things.

JAI SAI RAM.

Sai Baba is a great dhuni. He burns and burns with love all our complex emotional patterns and sufferings.... Let us bring a transformation in ourselves, our attitudes -  by HIS grace so we can deal with our problems and sufferings and be worthy of HIS love and grace.

[Ramesh Ramnani]

जय साँई राम।।।

पुराने जमाने की बात है। किसी गांव में एक किसान रहता था। वह कड़ी मेहनत करता था और अच्छी-खासी फसल उपजाता था। फिर भी वह अपने जीवन से संतुष्ट नहीं था। वह अक्सर उद्विग्न और परेशान रहता था। एक दिन उस गांव में एक साधु आया। सारे लोग उसके पास अपनी-अपनी समस्याएं लेकर पहुंचे। वह किसान भी गया। उसने साधु को प्रणाम किया, फिर बोला, 'महाराज, मुझे बुरी इच्छाएं बार-बार सताती हैं और मैं बार-बार गलतियां कर बैठता हूं। बताइए, मैं क्या करूं?' इस पर साधु मुस्कराया, फिर कुछ सोचने के बाद उसने प्रश्न किया, 'क्या तुम घुड़सवारी करते हो?' किसान बोला, 'हां महाराज।'

' अगर कभी घोड़े से गिर पड़ते हो तो क्या करते हो?' साधु ने पूछा।

' फिर उस पर चढ़ जाता हूं।' किसान ने जवाब दिया।

' यही तुम्हारी समस्या का हल है। बुरी इच्छाओं को घोड़ा समझो। जब गिर पड़ो, तो उठकर फिर चढ़ जाओ। ऐसा करते-करते अंतत: घोड़ा तुम्हारे काबू में आ जाएगा।' साधु ने सलाह दी। किसान खुशी-खुशी घर लौट आया। उसे लगा जीने का एक नया रास्ता मिल गया है। उसकी परेशानियां जाती रहीं।

मेरा साँई प्यारा साँई सबसे न्यारा मेरा साँई

ॐ साँई राम।।।

[Dipika]

Why fear when I am here?


Trust in the Guru fully. That is the only sadhana.


My business is to give blessings.


I will take you to the end.


Surrender completely to God.


If you make me the sole object of your thoughts and aims, you will gain the supreme goal.

This body is just my house. My guru has long ago taken me away from it.

Those who think that Baba is only in Shirdi have totally failed to know me.

Without my grace, not even a leaf can move.

I look on all with an equal eye.

I cannot do anything without God’s permission.

God has agents everywhere and their powers are vast.

I have to take care of my children day and night and give an account to God of every paisa.
The wise are cheerful and content with their lot in life.

Gain and loss, birth and death are in the hands of God.

When you see with your inner eye. Then you realize that you are God and not different from Him.

You should not stay for even one second at a place where people are speaking disrespectfully of a saint.

If you do not want to part with what you have, do not lie and claim that you have nothing, but decline politely saying that circumstances or your own desires prevent you.

Let us be humble

All that is seen is my form: ant, fly, prince, and pauper

However distant my people may be, I draw them to me just as we pull a bird to us with a string tied to its foot
I love devotion.

This body is just my house. My guru has long ago taken me away from it

Whenever you undertake to do something, do it thoroughly or not at all.

One’s sin will not cease till one falls at the feet of Sadhus

Be ashamed of your hatred. Give up hatred and be quiet.

The Moral Law is inexorable, so follow it, observe it, and you will reach your goal: God is the perfection of the Moral Law.

I am your servants’ servant.

Always think of God and you will see what He does.

Have faith and patience. Then I will be always with you wherever you are.
