Exactly 14 years back, when I was in Parthi, shocked and surprised with Swami's early bodily exit from the earth plane, I had no tears coming from my eyes as I just could not believe He was no more in HIS body.
As I was sitting in the students' block, watching HIS body lying in the glass coffin, He whispered in my ears, “This is maya sharira,” three times. I was wondering where this was coming from, and instantly He made me realise He was talking to me inside like before, which used to be in the form of knowing, while this was a clear inner whisper.
After helping manage the flowing crowd mourning the maya sharira, when I did the pradikshna around the coffin, still stunned, some tears started flowing as it occurred to me that He was not in His body, but HE still was, IS, and will always be there.
I am today in HIS Omnipresence at Brihadeeshwara Temple at Tanjore, having been blessed to be in HIS Form and Energy — Lord Shiva — my most beloved original form of Baba, who descended in His body to ascend mankind in their own divine timings, to reflect HIS true form which He was fondly addressing as Prema Swaroopulaara, Divya Swaroopulaara.
Bhagwan’s true birthday is when He lives in the form of happiness and love and divine energy that each one are. We have incarnated in this Sai Era to realise we are HIM, we are ONE.
Finally as per His guidance got the opportunity to do annadaanam at Bhadrakaali temple at Tanjore on His centenary Birthday. Gratitude is the only word🙏
Jai Sairam 🙏
