SHIRDI SAI BABA'S INNOCENT DEVOTEES BEING DECEIVED -
05th July`2011
Shirdi: In a significant move, the Shri Sai Baba Sansthan Trust has cautioned the devotees against the groups who claim to have articles used by Sai Baba during his lifetime. Indicating to act tough against such people & groups, the Sansthan has informed to take up the issue with the government as well as the managements of Shirdi Sai temples across the country.
Besides this, the Trust also cautioned the devotees to not to get carried away by certain commercial ventures
who claim to have ascertained the caste, age or place of birth of Shirdi Sai Baba.The Sansthan is forced to take this step as some people are deceiving the innocent Sai devotees pretending that they have Sai Baba's Paduka (Foot Wears), Sataka (Wood Stick), Tamrel, Chimta, Kafani, original Photographs and Coins brought from Shirdi.Jayant Sasane, the chairman of the trust said that they are already in touch with the managements of the main Shirdi Sai temples
regarding this issue and besides this, the devotees also are advised to directly report such matters
to the Shri Saibaba Sansthan main office @ Shirdi by E-mail: saibaba@sai.org.in
Every devotee has his or her own experience with Baba but there are few anti social elements who just for the sake of commercial interests concoct stories about Baba. Such persons shall be strictly dealt with, Sasane added further.The Management of Shirdi Sai Temple`Chandigarh termed the initiative as a much awaited one. They said that the campaign should not only be limited to those who make false claims, but there should be action against those who even use Baba's photo for promoting their business ventures.
Sadguru Lits the Lamp of Life
Our life is an earthen wick lamp. The light that burns in it is life. The individual soul clings to the light of life. It is Sadguru, the Perfect Master, who guides it towards the Light of God. Longing for the Grace of the God-Guru, if a devotee takes one step forward, the spark of attachment gets ignited by the flame of the Spirit-Light and enjoins with ego and both will burn up. Death of ego and attachment is the birth of self-liberation. The Divine Grace-Power helps the flower of devotion to blossom. By means of the power of discrimination which man's intellect has, man can discover the Divinity within him. Wisdom aids discretion. Intellect awakens discretion. Mind gets illumined in the light of intellect. Merit earned in the past birth reflects in the present birth as good thought-impressions in one's mind.
If we are not vigilant, maya will pollute and pervert the minds and cloud our good thought-impressions. Baba can gradually weaken the hold of previous ill-deeds and lead us to perform righteous deeds. It is very difficult to describe the noble deeds of Baba who gifted us His Nectarine Name, bliss of His Form, virtues of charity and is instrumental in erasing our ego and pride and offer us the fruits of self-realization by destroying thoughts like "my" and "I". Let us listen to Baba's teachings and follow in His foot-steps to the true purpose of life.
IT IS GOOD TO FOLLOW THE BASIC PRINCIPLES OF SATHGURU. IT IS ILLOGICAL, UNMORAL AND DISHONEST TO TARGET INNOCENT HANDICAP PERSONS WHO ARE ON THE PATH OF TRUTH AND HONESTY
