SAI BABA MISSION AND ADVICE

Saint Ramadas (1608-1681) flourished in the 17th century and fulfilled to a great extent his mission of protecting the helpless meak against cows and Brahmins against the Yavanas viciously powerful (Mohammedans or Followers of Islam), but within two centuries after him, the split between the two communities — Hindus and Mohammedans widened again, and it is believed that Sai Baba came to bridge the gulf.

His constant advice to all was to this effect. God is the only One Almighty Master of All souls and never discriminates while showering His Love on the souls who are all equals before Him. He loves every soul irrespective of his/her vices or virtues. “Rama (the God of the Hindus) and Rahim (the God of the Mohammedans) are one and the same; there is not the slightest difference between them; then why should their devotees quarrel among themselves? You ignorant folk, children, join hands and bring both the communities together, act sanely and thus you will gain your object of national unity. It is not good to dispute and argue. So don’t argue, don’t emulate others. Always consider your interest and welfare. The Lord will protect you. Yoga, sacrifice penance, and knowledge are the paths (means) to attain God. If you do not succeed in this by any means, vain is your birth. If any one does any evil unto you, do not retaliate. If you can do anything, do some good unto other.” Baba shall always support any truthful thought or action.

This, in short, was Sai Baba’s advice to all; and this will stand in good stead both in material and spiritual matters. BABA assured, without any discrimination, all the seekers (MUMUKSHUS) His divine and unfailing support for material welfare and spiritual elevation. There is no soul in the world who has not experienced BABA’S instant support and protection in moment of crisis.

Sai Baba as Satguru

There are many so-called Gurus, (imposters) who go about from house to house with cymbals and veena in their hands, and make a show of their spirituality. They blow mantras into the ears of their disciples and extract money from them. They profess to teach piety and religion to their disciples, but are themselves impious and irreligious. Sai Baba never thought of making the least show of His worth (piety). Body-consciousness, He had none, but He had great love for the disciples.

There are two kinds of Gurus:

‘Niyat’ (appointed or fixed) and ‘Aniyat’ (unappointed or general). The latter by their advice develop the good qualities in us, purify our hearts and set us on the path of salvation; but contact with the former, dispels our duality (sense of difference); and establishes us in Unity by making us realize “Thou art that” there are various Gurus imparting various kinds of Wordy knowledge, but he, who fixes us in our Nature (Self) and carries us beyond the ocean of wordy existence, is the Satguru. Sai Baba was such a Satguru. HE always said, ‘Words create delusion (MAYA BHRAMA) But Company of Sat Guru (SATSANG) imparts knowledge by removing ignorance. His greatness is undescribable. If anybody went to take His darshana, he, without being asked, would give every detail of his past, present and future life. He saw Divinity in all beings. Friends and foes, the virtuous and the vicious were alike to Him. Disinterested and equal-balanced, He obliged also the evildoers. He was the same in prosperity and adversity. No doubt, ever touched Him. Though He possessed the human body, He was not in the least attached to His body or house. Though He looked embodied, He was really disembodied, i.e., free in this every life (MUKTATMA). However, when enquired BABA used to mention ‘VENKUSA’ as His GURU.
