My wife wants take me to Shirdi

  • Dear all Shirdi Sai Baba devotees,

    I am not a strong believer in Shirdi Sai Baba, but I'm married to an Indian lady who is from her childhood a strong believer in Shirdi Sai Baba. She always says that Shirdi Sai Baba is her Baba, her father. She read the Sai Satchitra and she says that Shirdi Sai Baba have divine powers. Next year I'm going to India, and my wife says that she will take me to Shirdi to take the blessings of Shirdi Sai Baba. Because I have been grown up in a European country (I live in The Netherlands) and I'm not so familar with Shirdi Sai Baba, my wife says that she will not force me to go to Shirdi. My wife also says to me that a priest of a Shirdi Sai Baba temple in India had told her that, there will come an time that I will be a more stronger believer in Shirdi Sai Baba than my wife !
    Now, I'm thinking what shall I do? Shall I go to Shirdi with my wife (who is a strong believer in Shirdi Sai Baba)??? I hope you all Sai devotees can give me an advice??? So pleace, dear Sai devotees, what shall I do???

    Welcome to our SAI online mandir.

    You are indeed SAI blessed child hence able to log on to this forum.

    Going to Shirdi!That is awesome !

    No one gets  A CHANCE it even if they are an ardent devotee of Shirdi Sai.

    I AM SURE YOU MUST HAVE HEARD  ONE OF SAI'S SAYING.

    "Whoever puts his feet on Shirdi soil, his sufferings would come to an end. "

    Baba said, "I draw to Me My man from far off, or even across the seven seas,

    like a sparrow with a string fastened to its feet."

    He also made it clear  that if he were not Baba's man, he would not be attracted to Him

    and give a darshan.

    Baba also said that He is not the three cubits long body that lived in Shirdi but He

    will manifest wherever there is true longing and devotion.

    The above statements may appear to contradict unless one sees the real context in which

    they are uttered or used.

    Realizing Baba in places other than Shirdi is a true pursuit of Baba in the attempts to

    see Baba in every being.

    However, visiting a pilgrim center such as Shirdi

    is a recommended practice for a  TRUE DEVOTEE.

    I would say that you just grab the chance and have a good darshan

    and you will find the differance.

    SAI BLESS YOU ALWAYS AND BLESS YOUR WIFE.

    Hope you have a great darshan and kindly get back to us  regarding your experience.

    Jaisairam!!!!!!!

    Let us pray at the feet of Sai Baba who is the incarnation of all gods and protector of all, to show mercy on us, and increase our devotion towards him.
    A Person, who has controlled his mind, can achieve any success in his life. How far you are trying to control your mind?
    The mind that judges not others ever remains tension-free.

  • OMSAIRAM!Akshay ji,Welcome to our Sai Mandir of our dearest Ravi bhai.
    Though you are not a Sai Devotee..........Sai baba has said ........

    My people do not come to me of their own accord; it is I who seek and bring them to me.

    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.

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

    Without my grace, not even a leaf can move.

    http://www.saibaba.ws/quotes/shirdi100sayings.htm

    11 Sayings of Baba

     
     
    Whoever puts his feet on Shirdi soil, his sufferings would come to an end.
     
     
    The wretched and miserable would rise into plenty of joy and happiness, as soon as they climb steps of my Samadhi.
     
     
    I shall be ever active and vigorous even after leaving this earthly body.
     
     
    My tomb shall bless and speak to the needs of my devotees.
     
     
    I shall be active and vigorous even from the tomb.
     
     
    My mortal remains would speak from the tomb.
     
     
    I am ever living to help and guide all who come to me, who surrender to me and who seek refuge in me.
     
     
    If you look to me, I look to you.
     
     
    If you cast your burden on me, I shall surely bear it.
     
     
    If you seek my advice and help, it shall be given to you at once.
     
     
    There shall be no want in the house of my devotees

    Sai baba will himself draw you to Shirdi.

    Your wife will just become a medium..................Only Sai Knows his leelas..........

    JISKE SIR UPAR TU SAI WOH DUKH KAISA PAAYE!

    Sai baba let your holy lotus feet be our sole refuge.OMSAIRAM

  • Welcome to our Sai family Akshayji. Well, Subhaji and Dipikaji have already said it all ! You might not be a strong believer..but if Baba wills it, HE will surely make you go there and that too whole heartedly. You must be really blessed to get a chance like that.

    I very very strongly belive in Baba..but unfortunately, all this while, though I always feel HIS presence around me and experience many many miracles, HE has never called me to Shirdi so far ! I always make plans to go to Shirdi, and some thing or the other comes up and the plan does not work. Iam desparately hoping HE will call me to Shirdi soon. That's my prayer these days. Ofcourse, that and the other constant prayer is, HE should always be with me..forever..

    Rajinder, dear brother, welcome from my heart to this blessed online SAI Mandir. I've been raised and I live in a European Country, too, [;)] but this should be no reason not to go to Shirdi, if you're called, which you definitely are. Let your wife explain you "the sparrow-string-thing" [;)][:)] - and afer that you will know that there's only one answer to your question (no matter the intensity of your belief):

    [:)][:)] GO! [:)][:)]

  • Dear Akshay Bhai,

    Welcome to this beautiful Baba's Mandhir. Well, shall I tell you one thing...even I never used to believe in Baba until he made me believe in him. Reading Satcharitra made me believe in him, and now I am nothing without him. I am not exaggerating things for you. You are indeed lucky to have plans to go to shiridi.. I had been trying to go there making unsuccessful plans..  

    YOu are really very lucky .. thats all i can say..[:)]

    I love you Baba.

  • Welcome Akshay Ji,
    Praveen ji is right. You are lucky. I was in India couple of months back and could not make it to Shirdi. but, let me tell you one thing do not think that if you went you wanted to go or if you did not go it was your wish. Nothing will happen without his (Sai) wish. If it is time and he wants it you will be his devotee. In fact you are otherwise why would you be here on this beautiful Sai temple among all of us Sai Devotees. Let him decide. Leave everything upto him.

    Jai Sai Ram!

  • dear Akshya ji
    Om sai ram,
    I am mahesh from Delhi,I am really happy to read your msg. regarding visit to shirdi. As above sai blessed members have already submitted their  views, I agree with them only I would like to add few lines and ofcourse my own experience that 'NO ONE CAN REACH SHIDI UNTILL OR UNLESS BABA CALLS BY HIMSELF MAY BE YOU MIGHT GO ALONE OR WITH YOUR WIFE IT IS ALL UP TO BABA'S WISH.'
    What Baba said that I am not only in Shirdi, he is omnipresent I am sure if you do not go to shirdi then    shirdi(baba) will come to you. I  request you to read profile ot My dear sister Astid,she has never been to shirdi but she met baba in German and I believe she is more blessed by baba than the devottes who have been to shirdi. Hence I pray to baba  for you to go shirdi but how he calls it is all up to him.
      akshay ji you are luky that you have wife who is totally surrendered  to baba and through her you came to know about shirdi and sadguru Sainath Maharaj, there are devotees who had never heared of shirdi and baba now they are the strong believer  and have faith in baba.
    At last I advise you to do what your wife says  may be baba is sending  his msg. through her. In case you donot want to go donot go  and pray baba he will come to you.
    Remember "Sai is beyond  space,time and thoughts. He is in form and also formless.So leave to Baba do think much and believe in God what soever name you like.baba is in all names.

    OM SAI RAM

  • Dear Rajinder Bhai,

    Welcome Bhai,It is Baba's grace and kindness that you have entered this awesome online mandir conceived by our dearest Brother Ravi.You are indeed dear to Baba that he has put that  thought in you.

    You are blessed a million times if you visit Shirdi and get the Darshan of our Dearest Baba.There are maybe millions of people who could not go to Shirdi,even though they really from their bottom of their heart,wanted to go to have Darshan of Baba,but for whatsoever reasons which Baba only knows could not do so.

    So as  everyone said ,grab this opportunity, as this could be once in a life time opportunity to start getting Baba's grace and blessings in your life.
    Raj

  • Dear all Sai devotees,

    Thanks for your replies. Thanks for all the information about Shirdi Sai Baba. I would like to tell you all more about the situation of me. A couple months ago I am married to an Indian lady. When I firtst saw our marriage card, I was a little bit in shock, because (besides Ganesh Bhagwan) there was also a photo of Shirdi Sai Baba on our marriage card. So I ask my wife why she did that. Why have she print a photo of this Baba on my marriage card, and I ask her who this man is? In my whole life I have only heard one time of Shirdi Sai Baba, and that was when I saw the Bollywood picture Amar Akbar Anthony. There was a song in this film "Shirdi wale Sai Baba, aya hai tere dar pe sawale". I told her that I know Shirdi Sai Baba only from this song. So my wife told me that Shirdi Sai is an avatar of God.
    When I was in India, I saw also a temple of Shirdi Sai Baba. My wife didn't ask me to enter to this temple, because she was afraid that perhaps I will say NO. And that will hurt her feelings. She was also afraid that I might see Shirdi Sai Baba only as a simple human being. She told me also that she go often to this Shirdi Sai Baba temple. She told me that I am like a gift for her, because it is her Shirdi Sai Baba who have search me as her life partner (husband). She told me also that Shirdi Sai Baba was on our marriage to give his blessings.
    So because that my wife is a so big big devotee of Shirdi Sai Baba, that's why I was looking for more informations about Shirdi Sai Baba. I was surfing the Internet, and I saw this beautiful forum of Shirdi Sai Baba. I didn't even know that there was a forum of Shirdi Sai Baba. So thanks all Sai devotees for your replies and informations !

  • Dear brothers  and sisters,

    Next week I'm going to India. I will also visit Shirdi. My wife is very excited that I'm joining her to visit Shirdi. It's like a dream for her that comes true. I don't know why, but sometimes I also feel that Shirdi Sai Baba is calling me.
    So, I will tell you all about my experience in Shirdi.

    Om Sai sri Sai jay jay Sai.
