Sairam,

Sri Hemadri Pant dealt mainly about the Importance of Sri Sai’s picture, the method of serving Sri Sai without any intermediaries and books / treatises, which can be used for daily Devotional reading, in this chapter and nicely elaborated on these aspects. “ Framed pictures of many yogis (God realized souls) hung in the house of Sri Ali Mohammed were worn out due to wear and tear of time, but the framed picture of Sri Sai survived the effect of time wheel. This incident shows that Sai Baba is omniscient and omnipotent.” Similar incident occurred in my life. My father bought a small picture of Sri Sai and got it framed about 70 years ago. Today that frame is disintegrating after being attacked by termites but Sri Sai’s picture still looks new and with life. SriHemadri Pant says in this chapter “ Baba knows the past, present and future of everything. He adroitly manipulates the strings and fulfills the desires of His devotees.” There is absolutely no doubt regarding this aspect. Sri Sai knows every incident that occurred in my life.

Once when I was in meditation, Sri Sai said, “ What are your feelings after reading My Life Story? Don’t you feel and see MY INFLUENCE on your life?” In this chapter you can see the analogy between the questioning Balak Ram and stealing of rags that Baba did not like this attitude of asking others. “HE himself is ever willing to answer any question and hence did not like anyone asking others about Baba.” Even after being so written, so explicitly in Sri Sai Satcharitra, it is nothing but our ignorance if we approach others to learn about Sri Sai, HIS biography and HIS philosophy. Therefore every literate individual must read the version of Sri Sai Satcharitra in one’s own mother tongue and it is better to seek clarifications on one’s doubts directly from Sri Sai during meditation. Such Sadhana (practice) is very much essential to every seeker, as it is not possible to get answers through intermediaries. The fact that I did go to a couple of intermediaries, during 1989 – 90, for finding out more about Sri Sai is true. But I have discontinued such a practice there after. Now I meditate on Sri Sai, before retiring to bed at night, and pray to HIM to enlighten me on things baffling me. I place the problems faced by me before HIM and convey my doubts about spiritual matters to HIM and seek answers from HIM. Sri Sai with HIS abundant love for me, appears in my dreams and through such visions provides answers to my doubts. I pray that all Sai devotees adopt such a procedure and obtain peace and happiness in their lives.
