Aum Sri Sai Sarvarunilaya Namaha

The seventh Nama in the 108 Glorious Names of Sri Sai is 'Aum Sri Sai Sarvahrunilaya Namaha' which means salutation to Pranava Swarupa Sai who dwells in the hearts of all. The 68th Nama is 'Aum Sri Sai Sarvantaryamine Namaha' which means Salutations to Sri Sai Baba who is all pervasive. Shri Sai Satcharitra gives a number of incidents to show the above attribute of Sri Sai Baba. Sri Sai Baba Himself declared "I'm the inner ruler of all and I am seated in their hearts. All the insects, ants, the visible, movable and immovable world is my Body and Form [Chap 3]. A Sarvartaryami Sri Sai only could push His arm into the ever burning Dhuni of Dwarkamai to save a blacksmith's child who slipped into the furnace at a far off place.

Once Mrs. Tarkhad, an intimate devotee of Sri Sai Baba gave a piece of bread to a hungry dog before going to Dwarkamai for the Madhyan Aarti. Sri Sai Baba was pleased with this act of the devotee and said "Mother! You have fed Me sumptuously up to my throat, My afflicted Pranas have been satisfied. First give bread to the hungry and then eat yourself. A dog which yousaw before meals and to which you gave bread is one with me so also other creatures [cats, pigs, flies etc.,] I'm roaming in their forms. He who sees Me in all creatures is My beloved [Chap 9].On another occasion Sri Sai Baba called Laxmibai Shinde and said "O Lakshmi! I'm very hungry", she immediately ran to her house, prepared bread and vegetable and brought it to the Dwarkamai. Sri Sai Baba who was very hungry gave it to a dog. When Laxmibai was unhappy to see that Sri Sai Baba did not eat her bread, Sai said to her "The appeasement of the dog's hunger is the same as mine. The dog has soul as mine. The creatures may be different but the hunger of all is the same. He who feeds the Hungry, really serves Me with food. Regard this as axiomatic truth". How wonderfully Sri Sai Baba has taught us, His children to see Him in all creatures.
