Guruvaar Prarthna

Guruvaar Prarthna

 

Our Beloved Sadguru Sainath, please accept our humble prayers on this Holy day of Guruvaar. Baba, many people develop worries by falsely imagining that they are inferior to others. You taught us the idea of inferiority or superiority brings trouble and worries. Ideas of superiority and inferiority are due to ego of individuals. On this blessed day we pray for Your help to get rid of our egoistic mind-set and seek Your blessings to lead a trouble free and worry free life. We start our prayers after reading the following ovi verses from Your Satcharita.

 

 

Devotees have desires without realising their true welfare. Only the Guru knows what is in the devotee's interest, knowing the past, present and the future.

 

However much anyone kept his thought hidden, Sai Samartha dwells within the hearts of everyone as the Witness and he knows the innermost thoughts.

 

When anyone lovingly related his intentions and placed them at Sai's feet, and asked for permission with full faith, Sai showed the right path.

 

This was his vow and all his devotees knew it. He removed the obstacles of all who had completely surrendered.

 

The Guru is the real mother and father. Since numerous births, he is the Guardian and Protector. He is Brahma, Vishnu and Shankar, the Doer and the One who gets everything done.

 

A child wants sweets but the mother gives bitter medicine whether the child cries or writhes. This is her loving decision.

 

How can the child know the properties of that bitter medicine and how it will be beneficial at the proper time? Only the mother knows the indications.

 

Even if Anna kept a share, was Baba likely to forget himself? His love was not motivated by gain. He was ever ready to look after the welfare of his devotees.

 

Money and gold were like dust to him, so what was the value of the share for him? These Saints manifest in the world only to uplift suffering humanity.

 

He is a Saint who has control over his senses and is free from the vices of ignorance and envy and whose aim is to bestow favours on others.

 

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.

 

-(from Shri Sai Samartha Satchrita, Chapter 25, Ovi 56 - 65)
