THE SAI TRINITY (SHIRDI, SATHYA AND THE PROSPECTIVE PREM) AND THEIR CONTRIBUTION TO HUMANITY
‘I have come to light the lamp of Love in your hearts, to see that it shines day by day with added luster. I have not come on behalf of any exclusive religion. I have not come on a mission of publicity for a sect or creed or cause, nor have I come to collect followers for a doctrine. I have no plan to attract disciples or devotees into my fold or any fold. I have come to tell you of this unitary faith, this spiritual principle, this path of Love, this virtue of Love, this duty of Love, this obligation of Love’. (4 July 1968, SATHYA SAI BABA)
Kaliyuga (or the last stage of Cosmic Cycle, which will be succeeded by Universal Apocalypse and subsequently by restarting of Cycle of Ages), according to Hindu Religious Belief is an age of moral decay and general deterioration of Human and spiritual values, which will then touch it’s lowest ebb. This age, is marked by all round depletion of moral sense and ethical practices in the society. Lord Krishna promises his followers in the Epochal Bhagwad Gita –‘Whenever and wherever there is decline in righteous practices, and a simultaneous rise in irreligion-unrighteousness, then to protect Holy Men from the harassment by wicked men, and destroy Evil doers and re-establish Dharma (the Rule of Righteousness), I appear on Earth in Human Form.’ Every age has it’s Avatar or God in Human Form – ‘Treta was sanctified by Maryada Purushottam (Personification of The Ideal Man) Lord Rama, Dwapar had been Glorified by Mahayogi (The Master of all Mystics) Lord Krishna. But Kaliyuga is very different. Unlike other Ages, in Kaliyuga the kingdom of evil is not concentrated among few people, or kingdoms or races. It is widespread, rampant and deeprooted.
Thus we have the unique Avatar Hood of The Sai Trinity – the series was initiated by Shirdi Baba, then came Sathya Sai Baba and it is believed that after eight years from the Mahasamadhi of Sathya Sai Baba (i.e. 2019, Sathya Sai Baba gave up his mortal coil on 24th April, 2011), there will be born the Third of Sai Avatars in the state of Karnataka – Prema Sai, who will carry on the mission of the previous two Babas and bring it to it’s logical conclusion by the time he leaves his body prospectively in the 22nd Century.
THE MISSION OF SAIs
The SAIs are the messengers of peace and love. They are re-establishers of Universal Love and have helped create a society, which is harmonious and interwoven with ethics and morality. The Sai Era is characterized by Resurgence of Religiosity, and Righteousness. The two Babas who have so far happened have strongly advocated Universal Brotherhood of Mankind, unity of all religions and laid great emphasis on Love (Or Prema) as the universal remedy of all ills.
The SAIs have influenced upon their devotees through miracles. These they have done to convince the ignorant men of their divinity, so that they come on the Sai Path. Indeed, The SAIs have done so much to help man come out of his slumber.
THE CONTRIBUTION TO HUMANITY
While Sai Baba of Shirdi was the initiator of The Sai Series and did lots for the devotees through his miracles and preachings and teachings, and thus he is of immense importance, but during his times the Mode of Transportation and Communication, and Science and Technology, was still limited , so he did not do things materially up to the level of Sathya Sai Baba.
Sathya Sai Baba set an example to the Governments, The NGOs, The Rich and Powerful Men, and even common people, of selfless service to Humanity. He set up Colleges, Universities, and educational institutes, where students were chosen on the basis of merit and taught free of cost. He set up several Massive Hospitals, where the best Doctors treated the poor and helpless patients, cured them of serious illnesses through surgery, without charging a single paise. Several Countries in Africa have incorporated in their national school curricula, the Human Values preached by Baba. He has brought changes in the lives of millions, he has an estimated over 6 million followers spread across 170 countries of the world. He teaches LOVE FOR GOD, AND SERVICE OF MANKIND, as Man is but the reflection of God (Manav Seva is Madhav Seva).
SATHYA SAI’S MAHASAMADHI
Sathya Sai Baba Left his mortal coil (Passed away) on 24th April, 2011. He was hospiatlised since 24th March, and was suffering from several health complications. His Mahasamadhi must reaffirm our faith in his teachings, it is only the values which survive, neither man, nor his material possessions.
THE PROMISE OF ANOTHER AVATAR- PREM SAI
Sathya Sai Baba during his lifetime had promised that after eight years of his leaving body, He will be reborn in Karnataka as Prema Sai, near Mysore. This Avatar will too declare his Avtarhood in his 14th year of his life. He will complete the The Sai Age and bring it to it’s logical conclusion.
SAIs – GOD’s BOON TO HUMANITY
Indeed, it is Humanity’s Greatest Fortune that we could get and see SAI. Our generations are the Most Blessed Ones, in this regards. We will always remain indebted to SAIs for their help and guidance.
AUM SAI RAM
