Bhagwan Sri Sathya Sai Baba


After a long gap I had the blessing to visit the
abode of Bhagwan Sri Sathya Sai - Swami to us
his devotees. What a wonderful two days it was.
Indeed , I have been planning on blogging my
limited experiences with Swami and have been
wondering if it should be in this thread or whether I should start something fresh. I wonder and look to you , the readers , to guide me. Considering that he is the Universal Director , maybe , it fits the rest of the Blogs content. Friends I request all of you to let me have your views.
The above picture was taken during Ramnavami of 1988....It was in the evening when Swami suddenly looked at the clock and said ....Ah , correct time , nakshatra ,lagna etc...just now Rama was born....and materialised this wonderful statuette ( approx 2 inches) and gave it to me .....Guess I must have done something good in my earlier births.In fact he asked me where is Rama...I thought he was referring to my father the famous senior advocate - Mr.V.P.Raman.. I said he is coming tomorrow from Madras. Swami smiled and said , No , no , he is coming now...and waved his hand in the famous circular motion , lo behold , Lord Rama was there.
I have a request to many NON Believers who may read this blog....Kindly do Not hurt the feelings of those who do by posting anything that is spiteful etc...If you do not like
or agree just click your way to the next page.
Love all , Serve all.

Sairam Br. Mohan,

I felt happy at seeing His photo.

I suggest that you start a separate blog.

I am sure the flow will be like Ganges!!!


Sairam,

Sairam

I remember flying with you from Coimbatore to Chennai some years ago!

I cannot forget faces! I thought you introduced to me as a Textiles Business person. I was in Civil Services then.

I am a firm believer of Sai, (Shirdi) and I do believe in Miracles. Personally I have experienced Sai, when I got Vibuthi blessings in front of Sai picture, before my interview, during final year in College and pronto I got the job I wanted with Tata Group. Later after 3 years of service, I decided to do good to Indian community taking up Civil Services and under the guidance of Sai, I served for 13 years.

I have also been given Dheeksha by Amma Amritananda Mayi.

Yeoman service in the form of social service is the key to eradicate poverty.

Regards
Ramesh

Hi Sir,

Somehow I stumbled upon your blog. It is really great to receive the idol of Lord Rama on his birthday that too from Sai Baba himself. This is really a great experience to be treasured.

And i would suggest you to start separate blog on spirituality.

I have read somewhere a person speaking truth doesn't have to think. So ignore those non-belivers, if not today, one day they also will realize His greatness.

Love All. Serve All.

regards
Manivannan

Kindly make it as a different blog and once you do it post a link here so that future visitos can follow it. May Sai's blessings continue to shower !

Amazing story, Mohan. I'd suggest that if you are starting a blog - you should also post to a couple of devotional email groups (yahoo) that are fairly active - whichever works.

Amma, appa, Patti and I had a good darshan when we went to Purthy last year August.

a. Saadhanaa (generic - hindu)
b. Uttishthata (Swami Vivekanand)
c. om_namah_shivaya
d. advaitin - (discussions on advaita - very scholarly)
e. Harshasatsangh (Ramana Maharishi)

of course we also have saibabanews

Cheers

How could the magician determine your life [ Watch google video's on baba's magic]
I suppose at-least at this point in life you should come out of the Hindu-Brahmin yoke....

I suppose your father was in DMK and is a rationalist - you should do some justice for him... you cannot afford to be a fool for such a intelligent man

Your blog keeps getting better and better! Your older articles are not as good as newer ones you have a lot more creativity and originality now keep it up!

Mr. Anonymous,

Don't you have conviction in your own beliefs!

I am sure that this blog is open enough to accept non-believers. You must be strong enough to address the issues rather than criticise Mr. Mohan. I mean avoid personal comments. And please be open for rebuttals. Then the blog can be a lot more interesting to read.
