Those who have seen the miracles of Lord Sai tend to wish that the grace that they have received should also be bestowed upon others.
Thus, every Sai devotee is a Sai servant involving in spreading the love and message of Sai.
While some indulge in Sai activities with voluntary willingness, others accomplish the same indirectly by sharing their experiences with Sai.
It is natural that the good results of everyone's such actions depend on their capabilities and the extent of their involvement.
However, what God wants is the true love and devotion but not the magnitude of their gross efforts! In the great epic Ramayana, the efforts put forth by the squirrel on the sand is considered equal to that of mighty Hanuman.
Lord Rama looked at the specks of sands that squirrel contributed to the bridge with the same love and appreciation as that of the boulders moved effortlessly by the monkey God.
Occasionally, an intense participation in spreading God's words and involvement in such service leads some to believe that their service to Sai is superior,and away to express the trust they have in Sai.
Feelings of jealousy and hatredness amongst mankind eventually leading to their downfall. Lord Sai, the merciful Sadguru can save those from such eventuality.
Once, Dasganu Maharaj had to face a similar situation. The one that inspired thousands of listeners through his spellbinding Sai gospel, Dasganu was averse to one particular female devotee in Shirdi Village.
He used to criticize her in others' presence, some times in a very acrid tone. Once, as Dasganu was indulging himself in such a deplorable act, Sainath Maharaj summoned Dasganu and scolded him for his behavior. Baba scolded Dasganu that people involved with God's work must not possess arrogance and that Dasganu should seek forgiveness at the feet of the woman devotee who was the subject of Dasganu's contempt.
It was not easy for Dasganu, the most revered kirtankar of his times who commanded respect from his followers, to scoop down and fall at the feet of a woman. However, he had to obey the Great Master and in the process he was reformed to a humble servant of God and not an arrogant one who thought himself to be superior to others!
DEVOTEES SAY:
We will always be grateful to You. Baba please always guide us and show us the right path.Bless us and protect us.Om Sai Sri Sai Jai Jai Sai.
"Come what may, leave not, but stick to your Bolster (support, i.e. Guru) and ever remain steady, always at-one-ment (in union) with him."-Shri Sai Baba
