Aum Sairam
Being ignorant since many births, Oh Sai, I haven't known God! By the
flash of your mercy, I see the God for the first time!
What is the most important thing one could get from Sadguru Sainath? He
Himself said that although He is willing to give from His open coffers,
most are not inclined to seek it. After every desire is answered and
the truce between needs and wants established, Sadguru begins His work
on the chosen ones. The most competent Sainath has innumerable ways
that he chooses according to the nature of the devotee.
God vision, the realization of the supreme, the purpose to any quest,
realization of the self, knowledge of the absolute, these are some of
the descriptors of the dormant quest one might have in the spiritual
path. The Satsang with Sadguru is never passive! It is not a choice!
Is Sri Sai Baba a mere Guru or God himself? This is a stale question as
any reader of books on Sri Sai Baba can say that Sri Sai Baba appears
to those in whatever form they chose. Stories abound where Sri Sai Baba
appeared as Vithal, Shiva, Dattatreya, Jesus and other forms of
divinity. In spite of this, is there a question whether Sri Sai Baba is
just a siddha purusha, someone who acquired supernatural powers due to
sadhana or He the absolute beyond all siddhis? Is He the God?
What is God? What are God's attributes? None is able to describe this.
Hence, even the question whether Baba is God or not, is not completely
legitimate and at the best can only be a relative rhetoric! To make
this simple, if one would choose any form of God within one's confine,
describe the attributes of such a form, Rama, Shiva, Jesus, Krishna,
Vishnu, Allah or Buddha, all those attributes can be found in the
perfect master of Shirdi. If God is defined as an object of faith, the
faith will reveal God's form.
