Canon Legends Shirdi Sai Baba - Canvas Print

Canon Legends Shirdi Sai Baba - This is the first of the three incarnations of Sai Baba: Shirdi Sai Baba, Sathya Sai Baba and the future Prema Sai Baba. It is not the outer Sai, but the inner Sai, the one realised and witnessed in dreams, visions and inspirations that is the Eternal Companion. This is no different from those relationships found in Christ, Buddha, Vishnu-Krishna or Shiva. . . and the many names of the Eternal and Ever-living Essence of divinity. For those who remember him, Sai Baba was and is omniscient, omnipresent, omnipotent; friend, saint and perfect Lord. He was recognised by his followers as the dweller in every heart, the Perfect Friend, the divine director and universal architect. He was in the hearts of devotees all names and forms representative of his mission, as stated by Sai Baba "All names are mine, all forms are mine, there is no need to give up the chosen god, when you have seen me and heard me. . ." "When I am in the midst of men, I am a Man. When I am amidst women, I am Woman. When I am amidst of children, I am a Child. When I am alone, I am Brahman. . ." "Practice silence, for the voice of God can be heard in the region of your heart only when the tongue and the inner storm are stilled, and the waves (of the mind) are calmed." "I have a task: To foster all mankind and ensure for all of them lives full of (bliss). I have a Vow: To lead all who stray away from the straight path again into goodness and save them. I am attached to a work that I love: To remove the sufferings of the poor and grant them what they lack. "All things that are seen are transient, unreal. God alone is eternal, real. Attachment with objects ends in grief. God is your own Reality. That Reality, the God in you, has no relationship with the changing transitory objective world. He is Pure Consciousness only." "Even if you posit some relationship for it, it can only be the type of relationship that exists between the dreamer and the objects seen and experienced in dreams. . ." “For the Lord, this drama of time in three acts - past, present, and future, is clear as crystal. In the twinkle of an eye, He grasps all three, for He is omniscient, and it is His plan that is executed, and His drama that is being enacted on the stage of creation. . ." "The entire play must be witnessed for the story to reveal itself. . . When the mystery is cleared and the play is discovered as ‘mere play’, conviction dawns that you are in Him and He is in you. " "I rescue all who worship and adore me, aright. I have my definition of the "devotion" I expect: Those devoted to me have to treat joy and grief, gain and loss, with equal fortitude. This means that I will never give up those who attach themselves to me." "There is no one who can change My course or affect My conduct to the slightest extent." "My power is immeasurable; My truth inexplicable, unfathomable." " You may endeavour your best for thousands of years and have all mankind with you in your search. But you cannot understand My Reality." —Sai Baba
