Om Shree Ganeshaya Namah!
Om Shri SadGuru SaiNathaya Namah!
Ok, the design of this blog dedicated to Shirdi Sai Baba is all about His stories. Since there is no record of Sai Baba life stories in chronological order we will go according to different categories of the stories of Sai Baba. Stories written and accumulated in different categories. Matter of fact, this would be more effective and enjoyable.
We will start with this new group of stories called, Dictum of the evolved souls. Why, dictum of evolved soul? Well actually it is called involution as Meher Baba explained. People are on different stages or planes of consciousness. If ten different people are looking at a thing or a being, all of them will see and feel differently about the same thing or the being. In all of them different feelings and different thoughts get evoked.
So those souls who are dedicated to the divine, those souls who are attracted greatly towards the divine. They spend more time contemplating on the divine. They certainly will tell something more about what they saw. These we widely know as them Saints, Sages, dedicated devotees, ……
Well it happens that few of those dictums of great souls have been recorded. We will collect all those stories in this online category. And also have a list those stories here.
Interesting and educating piece of small conversation with Ramakrishna Paramahamsa from the Gospel of Sri Ramakrishna chapter 4
M: “When one sees God does one see Him with these eyes?”
MASTER: “God cannot be seen with these physical eyes. In the course of spiritual discipline one gets a ‘love body’, endowed with ‘love eyes’, ‘love ears’, and so on. One sees God with those ‘love eyes’. One hears the voice of God with those ‘love ears’. One even gets a sexual organ made of love.”
At these words M. burst out laughing. The Master continued, un-annoyed, “With this ‘love body’ the soul communes with God.”
M. again became serious.

Great warm comfort comes over me from knowing that the Ocean of Grace is available to us all by holding the edge of Master’s robes. We must not doubt or fear for a moment that the Universal moment will burst forth upon the minds of humanity, uniting us in that vision of peace and love our inner selves cry out for even as we are unaware of that need for Divine acceptance that is offered freely by the Ocean of Love we swim in without our direct Knowledge. I can think of nothing more to do than to Love humankind, and to surrender to that longing in the Hope it is returned Universally. Obeisance to all Gurus, Jai Baba.
