Sairam friends,
(This article has a video I made for Sai regarding relationship – Download Sai’s love is like a Jasmine here to watch in Mobile devices. (Look for a download icon in top right corner of that link).
Couple of days back, One of my friend came all the way from his flat to take me by his bike. My Ma scolded me saying I am supposed to take him in my car by I make him come all the way to my home to pick me. My Ma said this as his flat is on the way to work. I told her, he only wanted to pick me but she never understands. So yesterday, I decided to walk up to Bhadrakali Amman temple, have darshan of the Mother and then ask him to pick me from temple. I had wonderful darshan of Bhadrakali as Bhadra means “The one who brings auspiciousness” in my personal opinion.
Since I was bored to wait outside the temple. I decided to walk all the way to my friends flat. I like walking and enjoyed it for a while. Another colleague saw me walking like a dumbo, stopped his bike and dropped me till my friends flat. Then, we reached office. The reason I say this is that, Sai never lets me strain. He sends someone to take care of me.
Though I wrote that I am little depressed in the morning, I was basically normal as visiting Goddess temple always makes me feel divine internally.
In the evening, One of this girl at work asked me where everyone left as their seats were empty? I said “They all came at 6 in the morning and hence left early”. I exaggerated a bit but honestly they did came early. She immediately said “You say lies and I won’t trust you”. I was upset and asked her “Do I lie?” She replied “There’s not a day, you won’t lie”. I was really hurt by this but made fun of it saying “She’s branding me as a liar”. I like the word “Branding me” he he…
After all the sounds I made, I felt if its right on my part to always make fun like this? Someday, I am going to pay for this unless I shut my mouth. Just that, I am not able to. I also felt why I am not able to control talking even when others are busy with their work? Anyway, So far its fine. Everything comes to an end and I already guessed it.
Mean while. here’s a simple sketch my Sai friend Gowthami did
All this happened yesterday. So today, I decided to see if anyone speaks to me if I don’t talk to them. Honestly, all these girls were busy with their work and none talked to me. It made me realize, Only I am poking everyone and bothering them. May be, I shouldn’t talk to anyone if at all I could remain calm. Even with guys, I believe very few can be your real good friends. Others just speak to you since they see you. Someday, if I leave this environment, I will hardly have anyone to remember me. As they say “Out of sight is out of thought”.
Anyway, all relationships are like this. Sai alone will be with you. Now and forever.
One of my friend kept reminding me of this old Hindi songs. “Do dil mil rahe hai..magar chupke chupke”
Oh…What beautiful memory of Mahima Chowdri ..I felt so nice listening to the song after years and told him every shot as we watched it. Now look Mahima will be in orange chudi …the way it glitters on Sharuks face.I used to notice every thing related to cinematography those days.
Today’s theme is
“Loving your dear one’s and being true to them”
Many guys and girls used to write me about how much the one they loved left them or ignore them and they are pained. My usual reply will be neutral. I request them to remain strong internally and divert their mind. People expect positive reply from me but I try to be practical. I want them to focus on their studies, career or simply on something else. If someone left you, please don’t go behind them. Throw away the pain in your heart in the holy feet of Saibaba. I know its painful but you must live happily for your parents love you.
I can say above words to someone who’s not married.
But the hardest mail for me to reply will be when a women tells that her husband doesn’t care for her or hurts her for years etc. They will also have a child. In such situation, I can’t say anything. I simply ask them to focus their mind on something productive and live strong as their child’s future is important. Some of these women have a good career but few don’t even have means to earn their living. So they are completely dependent on their husband. When ever I get such mails, I used to wonder “Why should a man who married a women hurt her?”
I am totally confused. Human mind and behavior is too complicated. Some Men too suffer as their wife leave them and doesn’t care for them.
I understand there will always be misunderstandings as the title of the famous book “Men are from Mars and Women are from Venus” but it must not be so bad that it leads to pain of one person alone and the other simply hates their husband/wife.
Few years back, I one of this lady used to tell me that her Son never respects her words and used to hurt her like anything. She used to cry sitting in office why her son treats his own Mother like that. I don’t know hows she now. Basically, some children too doesn’t love their parents they way they must be.
I made a video and dedicating it to all Sai children who worry their dear one’s doesn’t show them the love they need.
Sai’s love is like a Jasmine which never dries and so should be your love
Here’s the transcript of the video
Om Sai Ram
This is Venkat.
You are listening to the world’s smallest network for Sai devotees. StarSai.com
Today, I went to Saibaba temple and lit 3 lamps.
3 little earthen lamps.
Some of these traditional minded people used to tell me “You must light even numbered lamps” Like..2…4..6
Is it so?
But I got used to light 3 lamps for several years.
One for my Mom, One for my Dad and One for myself.
I went inside the Dwarakamai and worshiped Sai.
I was planning to make today’s video based on ‘Roses” because I love “Red Roses”.
But the priest gave me little Jasmine garland as a gift from Saibaba.
So I felt Saibaba want’s me to relate his Love with beautiful Jasmine flower.
So what’s so special about Sai’s love?
It’s like a ocean.
There’s so much of love in Sai for you.
Sai loves you so much that he can’t let his love fade away for a moment.
No matter how bad you are or what mistake you do, Sai’s love on you continues to remain the same.
His love is so pure and remains fresh forever.
Yes.
This is Sai’s love for you.
It’s as fresh as Jasmine and remains fresh for lifetime.
Sai’s love is like a Jasmine which never dries.
Not once did Sai even thought of stopping to love you.
Not even the moment it takes for blink of an eye.
You may not realize it but Sai keeps sending his rays of love on you.
Even if Sai stops the flow of his love on you for a minute, your life will be pathetic.
But think of people like us.
We get angry on our parents
We argue with our brother or sister.
We are annoyed with our friends at times
We shout at strangers if they bother us unknowingly.
We take all the love from Sai but never learn how to love these relationships Sai gifted us in our life.
Let us learn to love each and everyone in our life, the way Sai loves us.
It’s OK to argue and get angry on your dear one’s but do not let that hatred grow in you.
Sai likes his children who can bear all insults and remain calm.
Sai likes his children who can express love even to someone whom you don’t like.
Then, imagine can Sai bear if you hurt your Mom, Dad, Brother or Sister…Husband or wife?
Please be ashamed of your hatred and be kind to the one who truly loves you.
If you are the one going through a breakup or pain that someone whom you love ignores you,
Do not worry about it.
Sai will take care of you. You are his dear child na?
Remember, this video must never be used to hook someone back to your life if their separation with you is justified.
If you do a mistake of hurting someone or behaving wrong, they certainly would have left you.
So take each and every relationship in your life as a Jasmine.
Your Mom is a Jasmine
Your Dad too is another Jasmine
Your Wife…or Your Husband
Your child..Your sweet little bud of Jasmine..
Your true friends are bunch of Jasmine garland around you.
Each one of these relationships are like gift of Jasmine flowers in your life.
Now start counting how many Jasmines are around you to make your life beautiful?
Don’t you think you are gifted.
Sai has gifted you with wonderful, loving and caring relationships.
Why do you hate someone who love you?
I wish every husband learns to see his wife as a jasmine which Sai gifted him
and every wife realizes her husbands care as Sai’s love for her.
I came home and gave the little Jasmine garland the priest gave me to my Mom.
She never knew that what I gave her is Sai’s love for her.
Sai’s love is a Jasmine which never dries
My love for my Mom too will never dry.
I wonder if I would ever get married because I am not sure if Sai has such plans for me
But if I do, I assure, I see the girl I marry as a gift of Jasmine from Sai.
So should you.
Once again..
Love your Mom, Dad, Sister, Brother…Friends, Husband or wife as gift from Sai.
Never let your love for your dear one’s dry up.
Keep your love fresh
Fresh forever.
Keep chanting Sai Sai Sai
Isn’t that holy name fresh every time you chant?
That’s Sai’s love for you.
It’s fresh now and forever.
My friends used to complain that I always sing and play Hindi or English songs.
Today, when Sai gave me Jasmine flower in the temple, I felt like Saibaba telling me
“Nee Tamil Dhaana. Apram yenda ipidi scena podra”
“You are Tamil right. Better play a Song from Tamil movie”
So here’s it..The music along from a very old Tamil song!
“Pothi Vacha Maliga mottu”
Will you love your Mom, Dad, Sister, Husband or Wife and Child the way Saibaba loves you?
Promise me you will because Venkat wants a world to be filled with love.
So much love that where ever I go, I must smell the fragrance of Jasmine.
If you are going through a pain of love,
I know you shed tears listening to my words.
Don’t worry.
You have Sai’s love in abundance.
Sai’s love is always with you.
As fresh and beautiful as the garland of Jasmine.
This is Venkat for StarSai.com
Write to me if you enjoyed watching this because this is “Made with Love”
Love on Saibaba of Shirdi.
That’s it..
It’s funny to see this song and I love the beginning music piece by Raja sir…I tried to edit it with Sai’s video. I always use old songs as it makes you feel nostalgic and finally I satisfied all of you.
It’s Tamil song because I am Tamil. he he…
I assure. It’s going to entertain you.
Play On..
It’s 1.15 at night. My parents allowed me to work until 1 only but video is getting converted after editing . I am not able to edit on beat and miss that art of editing. There was a time in my life when I used editing system used in Hollywood movies and now using a little tool which is all I could afford. Anyway, Sometimes, life changes and we have to live happily with what Sai gave us.
Keep loving your dear one’s the way Sai loves you. Love should be fresh. Now and forever.
All you read this will be blessed by Sai’s fragrance of love which is as beautiful as Jasmine!
Deep in my heart, there’s a pain which Sai alone knew. I did a mistake for which seems I have to regret a life time. I am diverting my mind doing such work for Sai. I hope you liked it.
I wish Saibaba comes in my dream tonight and guides me.
Venkat
