Initially all my days and evenings would pass by just in the effort to know about Baba's life story by reading the wonderful leelas of His devotees all around the world and listening and chanting His songs and name .Life changed emotionally 306 deg.That is the beauty of our beloved Sai.
He transforms the core of our soul . He makes us better person.No trouble in life is big enough , no harsh words of others matter anymore.All that is required are we close our outer self and remember Sai.Its a wonderful trick or magic to be calm and shut off any unwanted situations of life from affecting us negatively.Its an awesome mechanism that Baba passed on to us.Those who are familiar with His messages through reading The Sai Satcharitra , are aware where Baba says that we remain calm and let things pass by. All we need to do is keep watching these unwanted situations silently and not be perturbed.To absorb all such comments and not utter back anything harsh..'stay in your spot and watch the world pass by'.
And how can we do this tough task? As human , we have a tendency to react to and place our point to the argument whether right or wrong and no arguments come to an end without self hurt or hurting the other party.the end result is stress and an uncalm mind and feelings of bitterness.
Hence Baba send this mechanism to control the situation. It needs a bit of practise initially but with time and patience this technique is mastered ....and then all is bliss.
How do we do it? Simple , when someone is rude, situations of quarrel or argument is brewing...we have to just bring all our thoughts and concentrate them on the Form of Sai, His lotus feet, His loving eyes,His sweetest smile and His ever assuring blessing form.
This is the only form we know of that will give us all happiness and heaven on earth.....Our ever loving Baba Sai.Keep chanting Om Sai as many times as we can in our mind and all other human noise melts away and we are in cosmic oneness with Baba who loves us unconditionally accepting us as His beloved children with all our flaws.
I have benefited with this method many a times .everyday life is a lot more less stressful when we surrender our senses to Baba.Our argumentative mind attains stability and calmness and we emerge out better human being both at home and in the world outside.
Om Sai Ram
Chanting the divine name Om Sai is panacea for all evils but the monkey mind plays all sorts of tricks and tries to find excuses to maintain the regular practice. But persisting with chanting will overcome the fickle monkey that is the mind.
