GURUVAAR PRARTHNA

GURUVAAR   PRARTHNA

 

 

 

Our Beloved Sadguru Sainath, please accept our humble prayers on this Holy Day of Guruvaar. Baba, we may not be responsible for our conception but we are certainly accountable for our development. We may not be responsible for our birth but we are certainly accountable for our growth. We may not be responsible for choosing our family but we are certainly accountable for choosing our future spouse, friends and business associates. We may not be responsible for choosing our upbringing but we are certainly accountable for mapping out our destiny. We may not be responsible for our struggles but we are certainly accountable for our breakthrough. Baba, for each and every change You are behind us, You are making things happen, because of you we are seeing a life You desire and we deserve. On this holy day we start our prayers by reading your divine guidance from Shri Sai Samartha Satcharitra.

 

 

 

How great is the power of the name! Great saints have praised it all along. How far can a lowly person like me describe it? – that which leads to realisation of God!

 

 

The fisherman, who was a bandit when he recited these two letters in the reverse order, he turned from an ordinary Valya into Sage Valmiki, and displayed extraordinary word power.

 

 

When he said the words, 'Mara, mara' the letters 'Ram' were naturally uttered by his tongue and enabled him to write the life and deeds of Ram even before his incarnation.

 

 

The name of 'Ram' is most pious, by which the sinner can be salvaged. The name of 'Ram' brings treasures of joy. The name of 'Ram' is equivalent to singing bhajans; and its recitation can lead to Brahman.

 

 

By simple repeated utterance of the name of 'Ram' the bonds of birth and death will be broken. By the remembrance of the name of 'Ram' the gains will be multifold.

 

 

Whenever the name of 'Ram' resounds, the Sudarshan Chakra of Vishnu will operate and it will destroy millions of obstacles. The name is the protection for the weak.

 

 

Sai does not require a particular place for his teachings – nor a right time or a right setting. Even while talking, walking or sitting he is able to effortlessly teach pure knowledge to all.

 

 

 

 

I bow down to Sree Ganesh

I bow down to Sree Saraswati

I bow down to the Guru

I bow down to the Family Deity

I bow down to Sree Sita-Ramachandra

I bow down to Sree Sadguru Sainath.
