Sairam friends,
There are numerous ways to fulfill one’s desire and involve in things which may or may not be good. There’s only one way to remain Pure – To think if what we think and do is spiritually ‘Good’ . Many times, I have wondered why I never have desire to go to Shirdi. There are Sai devotees who wanted to go Shirdi regularly at least once every year and have darshan of Saibaba in holy Samadhi Mandhir and Step into Dwarakamai.
I have a very peculiar realization. Sai as we see in his paintings, Photos and Statues in home or temple is only the form of Shirdi Saibaba. Sai exists in every photo or even a little drawing of Sai. Every time you write the holy word “Sai” in any language, Sai lives there too. Beyond all this…..
Sai lives in our thought.
Every moment, we must monitor our thinking process and make sure if we are only thinking and doing good.
This thought process is not easy to control.
Human mind changes corers of times in a minute. This is because we are influenced by our own desires, habits, needs and also external influences. Maya is so powerful that even if someone sits calm,it hooked him down to hell.
StarSai has been a very good journey the past 9 years. Just that I have not passed the test Sai has kept me at times. I go back to Sai’s School once again but I keep failing. Many times, I have been a victim of my own desires and I pray Sai to make me desire less.
We lead a worldly life and we have to accept some desires as meaningful. When our desires are not fulfilled we get upset with Sai. Negative thoughts leads to bad habits and it only makes our life worse.
What you think every moment, Day and night is “Sai”
Based on all these happenings, I realized “Sai” is simply what we think. How can Sai do leela if we are not pure and positive. Our devotion is shaken by so many happenings in day to day life. We really don’t have the faith we need on Sai. This doesn’t mean you only have to remember God and Sai and keep thinking about Sai. It just means, Think good and do good. Simply do your work without distraction and dedicate your life for something Good.
Anyway, I am not going to bore you more. All I can tell you is, keep checking your behavior every moment in life. The more you remember Sai in your mind and do your duty, your life will be good and peaceful.
I am getting late for work now friends. My friends asked me to bring Camera. I don’t know how the result will be as I have a buy a Professional flash to shoot indoor. Anyway, I am simply going take some pictures for fun.
Very soon, I plan to create a Book for Sai and list in few online websites. Hope Sai Saraswathi shows me a way.
Love,
Venkat
Always in the holy feet of Shirdi Saibaba

Dear Venkat,
I agree to you COMPLETELY… Sai is everywhere in all forms, its how your mind takes Him… I go to one Sai Temple every Sunday and always attached to that temple as its Shirdi for me… Hence, I never feel like I am not going to Shirdi and yes when I go to Shirdi… I always get the special blessings and treatment… that my eyes fill with tears and troat gets chocked.
Thanks a ton for this site as I kep visiting every time and read something or the other for SAI
May Sai Bless you always as His Special Child.
Sairam
Happy Diwali

Thanks. Happy Diwali friend. I have few friends in Mumbai but the world is really big that we can remember people only by names and their mail id. Not when someone says “Mumbai friend”. Write me when you can.Sai blessings to you and your family. – Venkat
