during the last 18 years of his life (1900-1918). Even the
great scholars knelt before-Him in awe and humility. All
those, who - tried to test Baba, failed miserably. Those,
who came under his spell realized the truth that He was their
Antaryami (Inner Soul). He appeared to them in the form,
they used to worship Him. Baba was neither angry nor
annoyed at the ignorance of the people who prostrated
before Him. Sai was full of love and compassion. If He was
angry with some one for some reason, it was only to make
them realize their mistakes. He always drew them nearer to
him. Baba had eyes on all those who took refuge at his feet
as the 'Divine Father'. Haunted by their past evil deeds and
actions, some had condemned Baba and propagated that all
His actions were only the sleight of the hand and a magician's
tricks. During the time of Lord Krishna also, it is said in
Puranas, that the people whose minds were filled with Asura
Bhavas (evil thoughts), resented miracles performed by the Bbagawan
in a similar manner. They could not understand that his birth was
only to establish Dharma and justice in all walks of life.
Sri Krishna says to Arjuna: (Bhagavadgita 9-10)
"Fools, not knowing my supreme nature spread over the entire
universe, think low of Me. They do not know that I am the
Creator, in human form".
It is very difficult for the common people to understand the
secrets of an Incarnation and of God in its totality. The
minds of people cannot visualise the real truth as their minds
are polluted with the ephemeral, earthly things. They do not
even care to know the truth. We cannot obtain the divine
grace, unless we have the fruits of our good deeds carried
over from past births. our noble actions will beget the
blessings of noble saints. We get liberated from the cycle of
births and deaths only when we have the blessings of the
saints.
To be contd....
