SAI 's QUOTE

     

Sai Leela -: It is better to refrain from Maya.

                  The current situation is the most difficult.  There is an atmosphere of fear in the world.  "Everyone is running for their lives.  God’s faith has not yet grown.  Our patience is being tested.  When the sailors sail in the deep sea, everyone sits happily and wonders how to land on the shore.  If the wind suddenly blows hard, then your own safety comes to mind.  At that moment, everyone tells the sailor to push the sail to the shore ... but with the sailor's patience and trust, all the passengers can reach the shore safely.  Today we are surrounded by Maya.  Our arrogance grows as a result of the urgent plea to God before the work begins and the urge to do so after the work is done.  Maya is responsible for this.  Falling in love increases the importance of ‘I’.  We all give up on Maya.  Now the only power behind money and arrogance is magic.

                       In three eras, Maya has been expanding, and has been expanding ever since.  The guru acts as a guide to avoid falling into this trap of Maya.  The devotee teaches the lesson of going to Maya.  That sometimes hurts the devotees.  In 1906,  Queen of Baroda visited Baba .  He placed gold in one plate in front of Baba in the mosque and silver in another plate and gave it to Baba.  "I don't need all of this," Baba said.  Later, the queen wanted to pay some money to the president, but she said she would not take it without Sai's permission.  When he went to get his consent from Baba, Baba told him, 'It is better to be poor, what will you do with the money ???  In this way, Baba avoided Maya himself and told the Mahalsapati not to fall into Maya.  He was always watching to ensure that Baba's devotees did not fall into Maya.
