I always read lot of your articles. People say when coming to Spirituality, to start reading Bhagavad Gita. But, when Krishna is in your heart(sai baba) why do you need bhagavad gita. I have him in my heart always speaking. I never read any discourses or books on him till date. I don't think its needed because god is in your heart and he also says, when I am with you why do you need them :-) .. This is my feeling as I talk to him every second. Still I want to see if there is more in his teachings than he talking to me all the time. Mine is Monkey Mind :-). Do you mind pointing to any link or website, where I can read all of Baba's teachings and discourses. Just don't want to miss any of them he thought us all the years. May dear baba bless you with all his love ever and ever.

Brought back memories of my visit to Bahai temple when I was in Delhi. Also dealing with walking barefoot in temples during summers and trying to walk fast to give relief to soles is an ongoing experience for me here or in Prashantinilayam when I do seva in April every year. Waiting to read the next episode. Best wishes and love.

Your reply to me is ...Sai Ram beta, Yes, Yes, Yes!! Your reply to me is the missing link in your article. Today many of us can understand that there is only GOD but how many of us have actually given up our identity and become GOD. We are getting there even if it is for only fractions of a minute at a time but there are also many of us who still find it hard to make the leap for even a fraction of a second. I know you were a lot younger then and your understanding then was quite different than now. My comment to you was really saying: why didn't you give us your wisdom at the end for it felt something was missing. You normally do which is why we find we learn a lot from your articles. It's also why I mentioned you being tired from this hectic month as maybe being the reason.

However, am praying and typing an answer. I never said that Swami is moody. That would be narrow reading in isolation. <br /><br />To resolve your confusion aunty, Swami says in many discourses, "Yes Ane Variki Yes Anura, No Ane Variki No Anura Kani Sai Sarvam Yes Yes yes."<br /><br />I think I have got that right to a great extent. <br /><br />It means, "NO for those that say No; Yes for those that say Yes. For Sai, it is always Yes, Yes Yes."<br /><br />The Lord is an amplifier and wish-fulfilling tree, always blessing us. So, whatever we are comes back to us manifold in His presence. If I am bored, I feel everything as boring, including the physical appearance of the Lord!<br /><br /> "God you think, God you are. Dust you think, dust you are."<br /><br />This happens because, in reality, we too are all Divine and what we think and feel are equal to God's thoughts. So, we 'bless' or 'curse' our own selves... :)<br /><br />Hope I have clarified what I meant.

Brought back memories of walking sedately on hot baking sands to get to the darshan lines - running not allowed or mataji would chuck us out. Now for the confusion: With whatever drishti (vision) and feeling we look at Him, He appears that way - reflection, but then Swami said “Look at this boy. He keeps clicking all the while.” and you heard as you were meant too and immediately thought Swami was angry/irritated with you. How to put it and not offend you beta? You've been extremely busy with Navratri and Dasara and must be very tired. You remembered how boring you found this part of the visit so that like a mad monkey you jumped around taking photos to keep awake with Swami's eyes following you all the while. Here I expected you to remember your discipline story and tie the two together but you didn't as you tied it to the Mr Vajpayee story and Swami having moods. Swami is forever blissful isn't he? So if we apply the 3 R's wouldn't it mean that it was you had been moody (boredom being a mood) which you reflected onto Swami?
