Aum Sairam
Hardwar Kashi Mathura ya... Vrindavan Kabha Ganga Yamuna Mandir Masjid Sab Hai. Sai Baba
Sri Sai Baba is all the pilgrimage, Mathura to Mecca. He dwells in all temples, Mandir's to Mosques, Churches to Synagogues. Sri Sai children's constant remembrance of their father should manifest in the way they view other faiths. The unique Saint of Shirdi has proposed in unequivocal terms, the oneness of God and the various ways that lead to God. Several incidents during Sainath's tenure speak themselves to this fact. From the celebrations of Rama Navami and Urs together to the physical demise of Baba on a Vijayadashami as well as Moharram day dear to Hindus and Moslem's.
Sri Sai Baba appeared at the horizon of this century to teach us tolerance and as we approach the millennium, the task is far less completed. Some of the recent incidents across the globe are the reminders to the current state. Responsibility of Sri Sai children has to be respect to everyone, tolerance towards every faith, and the humility that Sri Sai Baba himself has stood as an example. Let us sing the glory of such a wondrous Saint who has consistently leaded His followers from the darkness of ignorance to the shine of realization. Let us all recite the poem written by Das Ganu Maharaj on Sri Sai Baba as follows:
You are Brahma, Vishnu and Siva The quintessence of the three gunas And on earth you manifest as Sri Sai the powerful In the early morning you become Brahma and spiritual knowledge flows from you And sometimes resorting to the qualities of tamas You assume the terrible form of Shiva Sometimes like Krishna you indulge in childlike pranks And at times you become the fables swan in the lake of your devotees' minds Considering your fondness for grantha how can you be called as Muslim? And yet if you are a Hindu how do can you dwell happily in a mosque? If your house be a mosque why does it have the sacred fire of the Hindus burning continuously in the dhuni that produces the udi? Such leela's of the Trinity manifest in you Are experienced by us daily, Oh 'Baba Sai.
Allah Malik
