Shirdi Sai’s Philosophy in the words of Saibanisaji
“Your suffering
is My suffering and your happiness is My happiness,” Said Baba, and just as a
mother always loves her child, He does not forget the spirit even for a single
moment, for it is the nature of Saihood to be compassionate.
He trained
himself to avoid abusing others, and then He wished that all might have the
serene mind that would follow by living in peace with others.
Thus Baba’s
compassion embraces all people, and His constant consideration is for their
happiness. He loves people as parents love their children and He wishes the
highest blessedness for them, namely, that they will be able to pass beyond
this ocean of life and death.
Just as rain
falls on all vegetation, so Baba’s compassion extends equally to all people.
Just as different plants receive particular benefits from the same rain, so
people of different natures and circumstances are blessed in different ways.
Parents love
all their children, but their love is expressed with special tenderness towards
a sick child.
Om Shantih
Shantih Shantihi

3. QUINTESSENCE OF SRI SAIBABA'S PHILOSOPHY:
(By Late Sri Bharam UmamaheswaraRao)
"Shashi": shashi_31@yahoo.com
29.
Is Samsara Really Necessary?
Sai Baba finally advices us all: A
householder is not at all inferior to a celibate. A Gruhasta who performs his
Swadharma and follows a righteous law is a great person. Sanyasi and Gruhasta
both have their own customs, different from one another. One’s customs and
one’s state of sublimity need not be compared with the other. Everyone has to
get the rewards or reprimands of one’s own actions. Nature has no power to
lessen the fruits of action.
By these Baba’s teachings we must
know how to conduct over selves in Samsara. The wise should be cheerful and
contended with their lot in life, as it is the result of Deha Prarabhda. We should not kick against the pricks. If
wealthy, be humble. Plants bend when they have fruits. But humility is not
towards all; Severity is needed in dealing with the wicked. But towards Saints
be humble and respect them. Spend money in charity, Dharma – but not
extravagantly. The world perishes no doubt, but while it lasts, wealth is a
necessity. Be not being obsessed with the importance of wealth. Do not be
entangled in it. Be liberated and munificent but not lavish or extravagant. We
must get on carefully with our worldly problems.
Pray God always: This Samsara is not
mine, but God’s. Think thus all the time when we are
awake. We must have consideration for the poor and do not persecute or tease
them. We must always enquire – ‘Who am I?’

Audio CDs from Sai Banisa – Saidarbar - reviews
CD – Gruhastalaku Sri Sai Salahaalu
Manusmruti has
laid down some Gruhastsrama dharmas like a ‘Gruhasta’ should not eat an item
which is not served to the guest.
Bhartruhari has
proclaimed ‘paropakaram idam sareeram’. Just as plants,
rivers and cows live
for others man has to live for others.
In his lecture
in the CD, Sai Banisa has presented various illustrations from Sai Baba’s words
which speak about a wife’s rights and duties, a mother’s love, a husband’s
role, children’s responsibility towards parents and so on.
For instance
the incident in 12th chapter, page 101 proves that a woman should
not forget her parents’ home after marriage. Nana Saheb and his wife were in
Shirdi for quite some time. Suddenly they heard the news
that their son was
ill at Belapur. Nana Saheb wanted his wife to go but
come back the very
next day. But Baba said, ‘Go, don’t delay. Stay there
for four days. Visit
all your relatives and come back at leisure!’
There are many
such instances which prove a woman has absolute rights
over the property
given by her parents, should continue the task started
by her husband,
should pray for her children’s safety. The husband also
should look after his
wife well, should not take up sanyasa during her
life time, children
should repay their parents and the like other words.
Sai Banisa
quotes umpteen number of illustrations from Sai Saccharita with reference to
page numbers and chapters where in exists an underlying current of thought
which defines Gruhastasrama dharmas. He has studied Satcharita and absorbed
every word of it in essence. Name anything – he can quote an example, an
anecdote, and an incident and interpret it in terms of that principle and trace
it’s origin to Satcharita.
CD - Kalala lo Sri Sai
God speaks to
us in many ways. Sai Baba is known to speak through our dreams. Sai Banisa is
living example of this miracle. He performs the next days’ duties based on Sai
Baba’s advice to him the previous night in his dream.
In the present
lecture, he describes vividly what dreams are, how dreams have found their
place in our epics and how Sai Baba has appeared in the dreams of many in His
life time and how Sai Banisa himself had many answers to his queries and doubts
through his dreams.
One should
appreciate his analytical knowledge of Sai Satcharita. He doesn’t read it as
anybody does. It is a continuous source of inspiration for him; it is source of
knowledge for him; it is a beacon light for him in the path of righteousness;
it is a philosophical guide for him.
It is not a blind belief. He shows facts and
figures, he quotes many examples, illustrations, anecdotes to support and
supplement his statement. Baba would make one wonder whether he was dreaming or
it was a reality!
In chapter 29,
Baba appeared as Lord Sri Rama to a devotee of Rama during noon Aarthi. Baba
would invite his devotees to His place, through their dreams. In chapter 30, a
Punjabi Brahmin called Ramlal was invited to His place in his dream. He solves
the problems or clarifies doubts of his devotees through other devotees.
Sapatnekar’s wife dreamt of a Fakir filling her empty pot. Baba blessed her
through a cowherd woman. He accepts dakshina as per his wish.
For instance
Sai Banisa had a dream early hours of March 9, 1992 in Visakhapatnam. A well
dressed man in suit, boot, in cooling glasses and hat appeared in his dream. He
said, ‘You settled your daughter’s marriage and you are offering dowry. Won’t you
give me rupees five?’ Surprisingly, as he was seated on a bench in the station
to leave Visakhapatnam, a man came and sat beside him. He was the same well
dressed man in suit, boot and cooling glasses, in his dream the previous night.
Should he honour his dream and give him Rs.5? If so, how would he react? He
went behind him, dropped a five rupee note at his feet and told him ‘Your money
has fallen down.’ The man picked it up walked away a few steps and disappeared.
Sai Banisa has
many such hair-raising anecdotes up his sleeve. In one word Sai Baba is his
friend, philosopher and guide. He has a Sai Darbar at his home made out of rose
wood, again as per the instructions of Sai Baba.
His lecture is
thought provoking and heart rendering. One longs to get such dreams and be
blessed by Sai Baba!
CD - Sri Siva Swaroopamlo Sai
‘Siva Rama
Krishna Maruthya Namaha’ is one of the names of Sai Baba. In his earlier
renderings, Sai Banisa has clearly illustrated how Sai is Siva, Rama, Krishna
and Maruthi.
In the present
discourse, Sai Banisa compares Siva Puranam and Guru Geetha with Satcharita.
Siva Puranam deals with who is Guru, what are his miraculous powers, how to
respect Guru etc. Guru Geetha is conversational style between Parvathi and Siva
which high lights the greatness of the Guru.
Sai Banisa
proves meticulously, step by step that Sai Baba has all the qualities defined
in a Guru.
For example in
Siva Puranam Siva explains that there is no difference between Him, His Linga
and his Murthy. In Satcharita, Sai Baba explains in chapter 41 that there is no
difference between him and his photo.
29th Sloka of
Guru Geetha ‘ Sarva
theertha vahagavasya Samprapnothi phalam
naraha’ proclaims that if you drink the padatheertham of Guru, it is as good as
having a holy dip in all holy rivers. In the fourth chapter of Satcharita
Dasaganu plans a trip to Prayaga, confluence of Ganga and Yamuna.
Sai Baba says
‘Prayaga is here itself’ When he knelt before the feet of Sai Baba, Ganga,
Yamuna gushed out the feet of Sai Baba. Guru is one who drives out the darkness
of ignorance through knowledge. Baba has driven out the ajnana of Vijayanand in
31st chapter and has liberated his soul.
Thus Sai Banisa
proves that Sai Baba is Samartha Sadguru and he will guide us in the rightful
path as ‘Sai Sankar.’ The musical note of Guru Geetha is melodious while the
speech is motivating and guiding the Sadhaka in spiritual path.

5. SANATANA DHARMA &SHRI
SHIRDI SAIBABA.
When
was the first Gurupoornima celebrated in Shirdi?
The great good fortune of being the first to
formally worship fell to Sri Noolkar upon a Guru Poornima day. Sri Noolkar first visited Shirdi in 1909(Sai
Satcharitra Chapter 31 & Saipatham Magazine August 2002) and he passed away
in March, 1911. But Sri M. B. Nimbalkar mentioned in his writings that as per
Dr.Gavankar‘s opinion Noolkar first visited Shirdi in 1908 and therefore first
Gurupoornima held in 1908. With the above mentioned reasons Gurupoornima might
have started in Shirdi in 1908 or 1909 or 1910.
Noolkar wrote a letter to his friend Nanasaheb
Chandorkar describing first Gurupoornima celebrations in Shirdi. In that letter
he mentioned “As I awoke on Saturday, I remembered that it was the day of Guru
Poornima. We immediately started preparations for the pooja”. From this letter
it reveals that first Gurupoornima was held on Saturday.
As per Lunar Calendar, Gurupoornima
day had fallen as follows.
Year Month
Date Week
1908 July
13 Monday
1909 July
3 Saturday
1910 July
22 Friday
As per Noolkar’s letter Saturday’s
Gurupoornima will come only in 1909. So, we might say in Shirdi first
Gurupoornima Celebrations held on Saturday, 3rd July, 1909.
Noolkar first visited Shirdi in
1909. He was one of the most intimate devotees of Baba. Baba would never allow anyone to worship him.
He would not allow any devotee to even garland him. The great good fortune of
being the first to formally worship fell to Sri Noolkar upon a Guru Poornima
day. One day Sri Tatya Saheb Noolkar went to the Dwarakamayi and saluted Baba.
As he did so, Baba pointed to the pillar besides the dhuni and said "You
worship that pillar tomorrow."
Noolkar could not understand why Baba had said so. When he returned to
the Wada he conveyed Baba's instructions to Shama and asked him as to what
Baba's intentions were in ordering him thus. Even Shama could not understand
why Baba had asked them to worship the pillar next day. He went to the
Dwarakamayi to inquire of Baba but Baba merely reiterated his earlier
instructions. Later Baba repeated the same instructions to Tatya Kote Patil and
Dada Kelkar too. The next day happened to be a Saturday. As Noolkar awoke from
sleep he suddenly remembered that it was Guru Poornima. He conveyed this to
Shama and the other devotees. They got the almanac to check and it was
confirmed that it was indeed so. That day was Guru Poornima. They now
understood the meaning of Baba's words when he told them to worship the pillar.
They were all very happy that Baba had finally permitted them to worship him.
They all went to the Dwarakamayi and begged Baba to allow them to perform the
worship of their guru. Baba merely told them again to worship the pillar. "Oh our God! Why should we worship the pillar when we
have you, a God, in front of us? We will worship only you." Baba did not
agree to be worshipped by the devotees. The devotees stuck firmly to their
resolve. At last Baba had to acquiesce to the wishes of his devotees and allow
them to worship him. Baba always surrenders to the feelings of love and faith
of his devotee. He said, "All right" at last, and the happiness of
his devotees knew no, bounds.
They immediately started preparing for the worship of the Guru. They
decided to worship Baba after he returned from his round of alms and informed
him thus. Baba, with utmost kindness, not only agreed but also permitted them
to worship him using the sixteen articles of formal worship. Baba sent word to
Radhakrishna Ayi and Dada Kelkar. She sent the various ingredients used in
worship to the dwarakamayi and Dada Kelkar also reached the Dwarakamayi with
the various articles used in worship. All the devotees present did
congregational worship of Baba. Baba returned all the dakshina offered to him
back to the devotees. Arati was offered after the worship. Thus the first Guru
Poornima worship was performed at Shirdi.
Sri Tatya Saheb Noolkar wrote a
brief note to his friend Chandorkar about the first celebrations of Guru Pooja
during Guru Poornima, as Chandorkar was not present at Shirdi at that time.
This letter was published in Sai Leela magazine but unfortunately the date was
not mentioned. This is a free translation of that letter.
"As I awoke on Saturday, I
remembered that it was the day of Guru Poornima. We immediately started
preparations for the pooja. Baba had permitted us to worship him after he
returned from his round of alms. He did not object and kept silent when we
worshipped him with the sixteen ways of worship. He returned all the dakshina
given to him back to the devotees after the worship was over. We sent word to
Radhakrishna Ayi and Dada Kelkar that worship of Baba and arati were being done
in the dwarakamayi. Ayi sent various articles of pooja. Dade Kelkar too came
with his pooja articles and participated in the pooja."
As per
Tatyasaheb Noolkar’s Letter Saturday’s Gurupoornima had fallen in the year
1909. Therefore the First Gurupoornima Celebrations could have
been started on Saturday, 3rd July, 1909.

6. DEVOTEES EXPERIENCES:
Thu, July 5,
2007 7:40 pm
SaiRam,
A miracle
happened on a holiday that I took with my
family. My sister and I
were in the hotel room with the door slightly ajar as the children were in and
out. My sister was sleeping soundly
while I was watching the TV. Suddenly, I
saw a man creep into the room and checking my handbag for cash and
valuables. I was shocked and started shouting at him. He was completely taken aback and ran away
after dropping my handbag! The Shirdi
Sai photo that I put in the bag saved me from losing all my valuables. It was
Baba that made the thief drop my handbag instead of taking it with him!
Thank You Baba
and koti pranams to You.

Om Sai Ram! I
am very much impressed by reading the experiences of my fellow Sai bhakth. I
would like to share mine too. I have been working in some junk field (software)
for past 12 years and recently I decided to change my field to dotnet. I prayed
Saibaba and submitted my resume (fake experience). I was successful with phone
interview and went for personal interview. But I was not selected for that
position. It was a contract to hire position. I was little sad, but I have full
confidence that Baba will show me the better one. That is TRUE. By HIS holy
grace I was selected for permanent position in some big company. I have to
start my new job from 28th. I am sure that Baba will definitely take care of these
devotees. We need to have Sradhha and Saburi. Hope we all will develop those
important qualities and reach his HIS holy feet one day.
Om Sai Ram!

Smt. Madhu Gopal Ravada, Saidarbar, Hyderabad.
Hello Children! I am Madhu aunty. Do
you know Baba use to play with children and used to tell stories to them? I
felt children visiting Saidarbar should be entertained with good stories. Now I
want to tell the stories what heard in my child hood.
The
story of the Monkey
Construction of a temple was on
outside a town. Near the site, a huge wooden log was being split. At the lunch,
the workers fixed a wedge between the split wood and went to dine. A monkey had
been watching the activities of the workers since morning. When the workers
were away, the monkey descended from the tree and began to meddle with that log
of wood. During the play, he saw the wedge and began to withdraw it. But he
forgot that his tail was hanging between the split ends of the log. As soon as
the wedge was out, the split ends closed squeezing the tail of the monkey. The
monkey tried hard to get himself free but in vain. No help was available
nearby. By the time, the workers returned from their lunch, the monkey had
died.
.
MORAL: Do not meddle in things that don't concern you

8. SPIRITUAL GEMS FROM SAI SATCHARITRA
Sun, July 8, 2007 8:01 am
Sai Ram. Let us
continue with the Spiritual Gems from Sri Sai Satcharitra, Chapter
24. Sai Ram.
SSS: Generally, all people like wit and humor,
but they do not like that jokes
should be cut at their expense. But Baba's
method was peculiar; when it was
accompanied with gestures,
it was very interesting and instructive, and the
people, therefore, did not mind, if they
were held up to the ridicule. Hemadpant
gives his own instance below.
SSG: Sai Ram. It is our ego that makes us
like or dislike something. It is also
our ego which makes us enjoy the
discomfiture of others (it has something to do
with our desire to dominate others for
our own pleasures. Sai Ram.). However, in
the presence of our Sadguru Sai, our
egos get refined and learn the lessons from
the jokes or humor. That is the effect
of Sadguru and of course the result of our
merits of this birth or past lives. Sai
Ram.
SSS: Chanak-Leela
In Shirdi, bazaar was held every Sunday, and
people from the neighboring villages
came there, erected booths and stalls on
the street, and sold their wares and
commodities. Every noon,
the Dwarakamayi was crowded more or less; but on Sunday, it was crowded to
suffocation. On one such Sunday, Hemadpant sat in front of Baba, shampooing His
Legs and muttering God's name. Shama was on Baba's left, Vamanrao to His right
- Shriman Booty and Kakasaheb Dixit and others were also present there. Then
Shama laughed and said to Annasaheb - "See that some grains seem to have
stuck to the sleeve of your coat". So saying he touched the sleeve and
found that there were some grains. Hemadpant straightened his left fore-arm to
see what the matter was, when to the surprise of all, some grains of gram come
rolling down and were picked up by the people who were sitting there.
This incident furnished a subject matter for
joke. Everybody present began to
wonder and said something or other as to
how the grains found their way into the
sleeve of the coat and lodged there so
long. Hemadpant also could not guess how
they found an entrance and stayed there.
When nobody could give any satisfactory
explanation in this
matter, and everybody was wondering about this mystery, Baba
said as follows: -
Baba - "This fellow (Annasaheb) has got
the bad habit of eating alone. Today is a
bazaar-day and he was
here chewing grams. I know his habit and these grams are a
proof of it. What wonder is there is this
matter?"
Hemadpant - "Baba, I never know of
eating things alone; then why do you thrust
this bad habit on me? I have never yet
seen Shirdi bazaar. I never went to the
bazaar today, then how could I buy grams,
and how could I eat them if I had not
bought them? I never eat anything unless I
share it with others present near me".
Baba - "It is true that you give to the
persons present; but if none be near-by,
what could you or I do but do you
remember Me before eating? Am I not always with
you? Then do you offer Me anything before you eat?"
SSG: Sai Ram. Sai Sadguru is teaching Shri
Hemadpant and us a very valuable
spiritual lesson. Recall
what Shri Hemadpant was doing above. "On one such Sunday,
Hemadpant sat
in front of Baba, shampooing His Legs and muttering God's name."
Since Shri
Hemadpant was doing a good seva, Sai wanted to reward him by teaching
him a good spiritual lesson. Also,
while Shri Hemadpant was shampooing Sai's legs,
he was uttering God's name and Baba
wanted to confirm that He was One with all the
Gods, including the name of the God whom Hemadpant was remembering. Sai Ram.
We will continue with this chapter in the
coming weeks. Sai Ram.

9. ARTICLES FROM SAI DEVOTEES:
"Deepa H" debu7366@yahoo.comThu, June 14, 2007 4:20 pm Pure heart is ---- Pure heart is when you don’t think badly about anyone. Pure heart is when you don’t let jealousy, greed, anger or lust be in your heart or mind. Pure heart is when you forgive and forget, the bad behavior of people who are against you .Pure heart is when you believe that you will do your good karma no matter how hard it is for you cos in the end it is Baba who is with u and what ever the outcome will be -it will be for your best. Pure heart is when instead of arguing with someone or gossiping about someone, you choose to be quiet. Arguing will just give rise to anger and ego which will destroy our peace of mind .And gossiping about someone is like pointing four fingers at yourself when you point 1 finger towards someone else, after all we are not perfect so we are not in a position to comment or judge about other people's karma. Pure heart is when you try your level best not to have ego. Pure heart is where love, peace of mind and SAI lives.
