OFFERING OF FLOWERS
The descent of the Sai Avatar in the form of a
human exhibiting divine play is for the sake of the devotees. It is entirely
for the delight of the people that the divine play is enacted and displayed by
the Avatar. This is the divine will of the Avatar. Those who experienced such
Leelas are mentioned in the Puranas and many sacred texts. It is because of
this we are able to read and come to know of the divine games and derive bliss.
In those days, the people who witnessed the Leelas of young Sai were very few
in number. Most of such lucky ones have merged into the divine feet of the
Lord. I am one of the few still living. To diarize the memories of those days
did not strike to me then, but these are something that can never be forgotten.
So, long as I live, these are my most cherished treasures that are above all the
other worldly treasures. It is only due to Sai Prabhu's provocation I could put
these in word form, and the divine Lord of Kali enabled me to write.
Once Sai Prabhu mentioned like this, “The Lords call is equal to
everyone. When such calls come to pour the nectar to all, some of them do not
reap the benefit by thinking that a specific intimation had not been given to
them. This is not a mistake on the part of the caller. All should be alert for
such calls of the Lord. There is no question for individual ego to rise,
because all are equal to Him, and to reach the divine feet should be everyone's
aim and desire. There are so many paths to reach the source. Though the paths
are many, the main source is one. Singing the Lord's glory, doing Bhajans,
listening to discourses, spiritual studies, service to the people, etc., as and
when granted by the Lord, one should not fail to participate in them without
any second thoughts. This is like a relation between the mother and her
children with no difference. So whatever opportunities are granted, they should
be grabbed and never should be forgotten. Actually, there is no difference
between service to humanity and service to the Lord”.
The Lord also equally waits for the love of the devotees. When the
thoughts of the divine increase in you, the Lord comes closer and closer to
you. In the by-gone eras, to reach God, people would perform many types of
arduous penance, conduct. Yagas and Yagnas to invoke the Lord and win over His
grace. In this period of the Kali era, when the Lord in human form
declares that He is the Almighty, and He is right there among us, there are few
takers. This open and loud call is not being heard. In the Treta Yuga,
Lord Rama established Dharma, righteousness. In the Dwapara Yuga, He, in
the form of Lord Krishna, became the master of Leelas. But in this period of
Kali, there are many great divine personalities, and to declare all of them as
God is not possible. But if you do not realise the incarnation of Sai Bhagawan
as the absolute truth, the loss is all yours. His preaching's are so simple and
clear that even children could understand. He is engulfing all with His love
and bringing them into service activity. Weather we really hold on to this
service activity or loose it, we are witness to both of this.
