Sairam friends,
I have just 10 minutes to write this article because already my father was scolding me last that I didn’t take any effort to find a girl and simply dragging. I am getting late for work…so fast fast….. Well, Yesterday, father of a Punjabi girl wrote “I liked you for my daughter”.The good part is she lives in pune ( I can go Shirdi more often if i marry her…he..he…).
You think, I can go ahead? I can’t hurry as I know eventually she won’t like me. I had suffered enough in past and really don’t wanna take risk any more. Wish I meet someone in Coimbatore or probably as you see in the Movie “Life is Beautiful”, Sai will push her down from the Sky.
I am really upset when women write me saying they are struggling in Marital life as the only thing that i can do is Humble prayers. Today, I got a mail and plan to write a article about being careful while choosing a soul mate looking at matrimonial sites or any other ways. You really won’t know what people are until you live with them. Most Indian marriages are full of surprises. Some surprises are Happy and Some really are shocking.
Anyway, Just five more minutes …Fast fast…lemme write what I am supposed to
Shirdi Sai Baba Works – Karma Marga “You are what you do, not what you say”
Sai’s Path is Karma Marga. There are so many saints who lives in forest. They meditate for years and have some thing to preach or teach. Shirdi Sai Baba never once tried to preach his devotees. Sai always has tried to directly show experiences to devotees there by they will realize what’s good for them and what’s not.
Have you ever seen Saibaba of Shirdi, Simply doing nothing?
There might be times when Saibaba will be doing Naam Smaran – Chanting of Gods name always in mind.
Other wise, Most of the time Saibaba has always done some kind of labor work.
1. The Samadhi Mandhir millions of devotees are thronging today was once a barren land. When Sai came to shirdi, he used to plant Tulasi plants in this place…Lots of Tulsi plants and water them regularly. Once a saint Gangagir Baba came to Shirdi and looking at Saibaba carrying water pot to grow the plants said to the villagers of Shirdi and said
“You think he is a poor fakir but he is a Diamond. Here’s a Diamond in a dung Hill”
2. Shirdi Sai Baba Cooks:
There’s a separate chapter in Sai Satcharitra dedicated for us to learn how much Sai loves to cook for his devotees. Sai himself goes to the market to purchase all he wants to cook. Sai even lets his hand inside the Hot food inside the pot to stir it. Sai never seems to show that his hands are hurt my the heat.
3. Shirdi Sai Baba never got on a Palki:
When a rich devotee donated a Palki for Saibaba, Sai accepted it only because of his devotion. When the whole crowd of devotees was standing assuming Sai will get in to palki and Sit, Sai simply kept quite. To surprise of all devotees, Baba kept his padhukas in the palki and decided to walk behind Palki.
What a humble Saint is Sai?
There is no other Saint who has shown that “You are what you do, not what you say”
Sai never preached Karma Marga – The Path of Work but he silently kept doing good deeds and kept doing some work.
There are millions of devotees who ask why Sai is not helping them?
You have to work hard to grow in life,
You have to study well to excel in exams
You really have to take some efforts and do some thing worth while if you want to achieve something in life.
Well, why I write this article? Because past few days I really feel that I only write and speak about doing good. I never act. I never do anything myself. I had this site
(the site is deleted now)
I wanted to learn and write about people who work for better Earth, Write about environmentalists and Climate Scientists but really I din’t had time. Its been 6 years. I dint really felt like writing much. I tried to write about Renewable energy products and posted some links to stuff in Amazon but that really won’t help. I really hope to get some contacts who can contribute few good articles about having a Clean Earth.
When I am like this, how can I really serve?
I only speak but don’t do anything Baba….
Sai,
I am really late today…Its 8 o clock and am getting late to work. Please make me someone who “Do” and not merely someone who “Say”
Severn Suzuki ends her speech with these words
“You are what you do, not what you say”
Sai always works
