"I am the Light"

Image
Sai Baba in 1989 Develop faith in God. All names are His - Rama, Krishna, Christ or any other. Every man is the embodiment of the Divine. True human relations can grow only when this truth is understood. The first stage to Realisation is when you accept, "I am in the Light." Next you perceive and declare, "The Light is in me" and finally you realize, "I am the Light." 'I' represents love and 'light' represents Jnana (Supreme Wisdom). When love and light become one, there is Realisation. Love should come from within and not be enforced from outside.    Sai Baba's Divine Discourse, Sep 15, 1988.

A Letter Written by Seema M. Dewan About Her Recent Trip to Parthi

The Lord of Parthi Returns in the Child of Sai - A Letter Written by Seema M. Dewan About Her Recent Trip to Parthi Sai Ram, As usual the trip to Parthi was wonderful. Nothing has really changed. Swami's presence is felt far and wide. It is amazing to see how far and wide Swami's messages have reached. Thanks to the dedication of a lot of pure-hearted and silent devotees, many have received solace and the word of the Divine in this hard period. People still glowed with smiles and put forth their devotion during each Darshan. All have taken upon themselves the role of being Bhagwan's brave children that would at this moment live His teachings and practice His truth. I received most of the messages during evening Darshan as He still sat on the chair blessing His beloved devotees. I would feel the wave of love fill my being and of course as I reached the room after Darshan I desperately looked for paper to translate the energy of love into the word of truth. How blesse...

The Baba and Neo-Mayos

To his faithful millions, he was God; to his disbelievers he was a fake; to his detractors he was a fraud; to the cynical he was a suspect. Yet, to Karunanidhi, a professed atheist, he was a God-Saint. This sums up the public discourse on Sathya Sai Baba who passed away in April this year. But most, particularly outside his faithful lot, seem to have missed out the dimension of the great soul hidden beyond adulations and abuses — the unparalleled humanist. Here is that Baba not so well known. Many men and women of high learning, achievements and wealth in  India  and outside were not just attracted to him. They revered him as the Divine Incarnate. It was his charisma that built a matchless organisation manned by hundreds of thousands of volunteers drawn from the highest echelons to the lowest strata of society. The number of volunteers registered to render from menial to clerical service exceeded six lakh. Baba’s entire work rests on this devoted cadre. A serving IAS ...

Baba Is Here - Graciela Busto

The nature of God is incomprehensible and mysterious. He is the indweller in each of you and He is the moving force of each action you engage in. He is both the act itself and the power that generates it. He is the cause, the effect, and the energy that emerges out of that relationship. Because He is the Source of life, all His manifestations belong to Him. God is the inborn and immanent. He is the eternal stillness and the movement that emerges from it. He generates change and remains changeless. The Lord is omnipresent, the One who accompanies you and is never absent. God is innate in creation and exists in every manifestation.  Omnipresence is not only the essence of each object but also the conscience of each being. Omnipresence fully exists in each manifested form and cannot be separated from the undifferentiated and mysterious One. God is not only the witness. He is the experience itself. He is the theatre and the play. He is the feelings and the most intimate thoughts of...

Sai Baba - His Age at His Mahasamadhi

Much has been written about the apparent discontinuity between Swami's calendar age at the time of his death in April 2011, and the oft-reported statement that he is said to have made made, that he would live until he is 96. However it is now abundantly clear that he was then referring not to his age according to the Roman / Gregorian Calendar, but the sideral lunar calendar of the Vedas. On this basis Baba lived for 96 lunar years. The best explanation of the confusion and the true calculation of his age appears in The Chakra here

Sai Baba - Seema Dewan's Letter of 3rd May 2011

God is omniscent,omnipotent and omnipresent..........The energy of God pervades all of this universe ............. Every speck........every atom is born from Him.....remains in Him.....and returns to Him.This is the law of existence and all beings and nature follow the rule. Whatever form you love Him as.......it is through that form He shows himself to you. Pure unconditional love is the bond between atma (soul) and Paratma (God). He exists as Universal Consciousness and in it He has placed the Word of Truth and whoever is able to even receive a tiny bit of the sweet honeyed love in that truth basks in bliss. God is in the heart of every soul. Prayer is a voice of one's self that speaks to the depth of ones soul.When love for the Divine preceeds all other desire......then from that comes a two way conversation in which ones conciousness asks and one receieves in vibrational energy the answers in which are revealed Higher truths............ You can call God by any name that ...

Sai Baba - Message Received by Seema Dewan 29th April 2011

(Seema Dewan’s experience on April 29th Friday at 10:40 pm US EST when she received the Eleven Sacred Vows from Swami’s Maha Samadhi) I was watching a discourse of Bhagwan last night.............All the three children were cuddled with me in our bed..............Sanjeev was called to the hospital for an emegency case.................At about 10:10 pm.........all of a sudden Swamis Samadhi was before me................A golden light emitted from it..............My heart began to palpitate  just like in Parthi before Swami would come to give darshan. The same feeling as though Swami is coming toward me............The golden light that emitted from His Samadhi started to spread...........It encompassed all of the darshan hall..............slowly to every grain of sand ...........every leaf...........every bird.......animal..............As people continued to chant they basked in the same Golden Light...............I felt the words that were to come fill every nerve of my being..........

Sai Baba - Message from Seema Dewan 29th April 2011

I am no mystic..........I am only a mother that  has found peace in doing her duty towards her children to the fullest. Baba always said "Duty is God" and any duty that is performed without a hint of "I" ness or selfishness will bring forth His prescence, His truth, and Grace. Such has been my life........ and I am blessed to have received this on both the physical and spiritual level from a tender age of eight with our dear beloved Bhagwan. I do agree fully that the relation one has with God is one on one. NOONE can ever come in the way between God and devotee. But truth as word manifests itself ...........sometimes it reaches the one that seeks it with great endeavor.............sometimes it itself comes to one as  pure grace. In both ways the receiver of truth feels the joy only when he spreads it for in it is the love for God.I have in no way wanted to hurt anyone by claiming my relationship with God to be closer than any other. Infact whoever remembers Him wit...
