Shri Sadguru Sainath says

“Do Not Consult the Astrological Almanacs. Do Not Believe in astrology”. The sastras and the saints say that the planetary positionsand horoscopes can have an effect on us only till we surrender to acompetent Sadguru, once we have surrendered to a competent Sadguru such asBaba, the planets or horoscopes can do no harm to the devotee.
-------------------------------------
If formless meditation is difficult, then think of my form just as you see it here. With such meditation, the difference between subject and object is lost and the mind dissolves in unity
--------------------------------
The giver gives, but really he is sowing the seed for later. the gift of a rich harvest.
-------------------------------------------------------
If Baba accepts a devotee, He follows him and stands by him, day and night, at his home or abroad. Let the devotee go anywhere he likes, Baba is there ahead of him in some form in an inconceivable manner".-Sri Sai Satcharita
---------------------------------------
Unless there is some relationship or connection no body goes anywhere . If any men or creature comes to you ,do not discourteously drive them away , but receive them well and treat them , with due respect . Shri Hari (God ) will be certainly pleased , if you give ware to hungry , clothes to the naked and verendah to the stranger for sitting and resting .Demolish the wall of difference that separates you from me ; and then the road for our meetingwill be clear and open
---------------------------------------
You are all well,under the neem tree ,feeling it's cool shade and spending your life happily . But here I an experiencing all your difficulties and troubles."
--------------------------------------
My mind aches at your quarrels. Wherever you hurt others or hit hard at living ones, the hurt is transferred to me . I become sick and feverish
-------------------------------------------
Whatever you do, wherever you may be, always bear this in mind: I am always aware of everything you do
-----------------------------------------
Baba used to say "Realize God in His totallty,everything is he ,enery action is he ,every thought is he ,every impulse is he ,every bhav (expression) is he ,every sensation is he ."
-------------------------------------------------
If you do not want to part with what you have, do not lie and claim that you have nothing, but decline politely saying that circumstances or your own desires prevent you.
----------------------------------------
Get on with your worldly activities cheerfully but do not forget God
-----------------------------------------------
Sai Baba advised his devotees and followers to lead a moral life, help others, treat them with love and develop two important features of character: faith (Shraddha) and patience (Saburi).
----------------------------------------------
Four things are common to all the creatures, viz. food, sleep, fear and sexual union . In case of man, he is endowed with a special faculty, viz. knowledge, with the help of which he can attain God-vision, which is impossible in other births
--------------------------------------------------
How can the worldly desires and impure inclinations come near persons, who remember Me in their everyday life, worship Me and lovingly listen to and brood over My life stories? I shall draw them out from the jaws of death.
--------------------------------------------------
If formless meditation is difficult, then think of my form just as you see it here. With such meditation, the difference between subject and object is lost and the mind dissolves in unity.----------------------------------------------------------
I am Ever living to help and guide all, who come to me,who surrender to me and who seek refuge in me.

You are not saved yet. " You are under the wheel of Life and Death. "
" No man outside can make you free. No one holds the Key to the Kingdom of Happiness. No one has the authority to hold that key. That key is your own self, and in the development and the purification of that self alone is the kingdom of eternity."
The Infinite space is Supreme God .All power comes from his limitless being !
" God helps those who help themselves " .
Know the God correctly here..... I can't give solutions to all of life's problems, doubts, or fears.

But I can listen to you and together we will search for answers.

I can't change your past with all its heartache and pain,

Nor the future with its untold stories.

But I can be there now when you need me to care.

I can't keep your feet from stumbling.

I can only offer my hand that you may grasp it and not fall.

Your joys, triumphs, success, and happiness are not mine;

Yet I can share in your laughter.

Your decisions in life are not mine to make, nor to judge;

I can only support you, encourage you, and help you when you ask.

I can't prevent you from falling away from friendship, from your values, from me.

I can only pray for you, talk to you, and wait for you.

I can't give you boundaries which I have determined for you,

But I can give you the room to change, room to grow, room to be yourself.

I can't keep your heart from breaking and hurting,

But I can cry with you and help you pick up the pieces and put them back in place.

I can only be your friend.I can only love you !

Prayer to Baba

Oh Sai Baba, we wave lights before You, the bestower of happiness to the Jivas. Give us - Your servants and devotees rest under the dust of Your feet. Burning (destroying) desire, You remain absorbed in Your Self and show the Lord (God) to the aspirants. As one feels intently, You give him experiences or realizations accordingly. Oh kind-hearted, Your power is such! Meditation on Your name removes our fear of the samsar. Your method of work is really unfathomable as You always help the poor and helpless. In this Kali age, You - the all-pervasive Datta, have really incarnated as Saguna Brahma. Ward off the fear of samsar of the devotees who come to You every Thursday so as to enable them to see the feet of the Lord. Oh! God of Gods, I pray that let my treasure be the service of Your feet. Feed Madhav and (you should utter your name here) with happiness as the cloud feeds the Chatak bird with pure water and thus keep up Your Word. Amen !

TO ADORN YOUR BODY AS KAFNI,
LET ME BE A SMALL STRAND OF
HAIR TO EMBRACE YOUR HOLY CHIN
AND, WIDE, LOVE FILLED CHEST,

Mehsoos karne ki koshish to Kijiye,
Dur Hotey Hue Bhi Baba Pass Nazar Aayenge...
