The writing in maroon type is not
in Sai Baba's original words, but is a commentary by Dr. Bob Holt relating
his own life and activities to those of Shri Sai Baba in India.
1971 - Grace Available to All
It is not mentioned anywhere that the Grace of God is available only
for certain classes or races or grades of people. From the smallest to the
biggest, throughout the world, all are entitled to it. (LBSSSB, 1971, 210.)
A Hint that Sai Baba's successor
might not be living in India, but somewhere else. In 1971 I [Dr. Bob Holt]
was graduating from Loma Linda University with two degrees, MD and MPH.
1971 - Baba Reveals His Time of Death
[Kasturi:] Baba has assured us that He will remain in the human frame
beyond the year 2020. (LBSSSB, 1971, 235.)
Note that Shri Sai Baba has never
had to worry about a supposed "Rapture" to occur in 1988, 1996,
or 1999 [Y2K], but was assured that he would still be watching his work
succeed in 2020!
1974- Prepare to Shoulder Your Task
Prepare for shouldering the task assigned to you - to be instruments
dedicated [to] the mission on which the Divine has come. (SSS, IX, 94.)
Here Sai Baba is showing that he
realizes others will be needed to help shoulder the task of "saving"
our modern world. And indeed by 1974 I was practicing medicine in Upstate
New York and also heavily involved in church work.
1976 - How the Avatar Works
There are two ways in which an Avatar can help people: an instant solution
as against a long-term one.
Why "God" [or the Devil,
depending on your viewpoint and prejudices] does not often directly intervene
in our lives as humans.
Any instant solution would go against the fundamental quality of nature
itself as well as the karmic law of cause and effect. Most people live in
the material world of their desires and ego, which is governed by this law.
They reap the fruits of their actions. This brings about their evolution
or devolution. If the Avatar intervenes to instantly solve their problems,
it would stop all action, development, even evolution. This solution can
be ruled out because it totally negates the natural laws.
Why "God" [or the Devil,
depending on your viewpoint and prejudices] DOES occasionally directly intervene
in our lives as humans.
The other and more effective alternative presents a long-term solution
whereby the Avatar leads the people themselves to a higher level of consciousness
to enable them to understand the truth of spiritual laws so that they may
turn towards righteousness and steadfastly work for better conditions. This
will relate them back to nature and the karmic law of causation. They would
then transcend the cycle of cause and effect in which today they are involved
as victims and thereby command and control the natural forces to be able
to avert the calamities you mention. (Baba in 1976 in SM, 1985, 244.)
A promise that men will in time
have the same power to do "miracles" that "God" and
the angels now injoy. "Ye shall be as gods---" Genesis 3:5c.
[Men will] become shareholders of my sankalpa shakti (divine power, universal
energy). I have to work through them, rouse the in-dwelling God in them
and evolve them to a higher reality in order to enable them to master the
natural laws and forces. If I cure everything instantly, leaving the people
at their present level of consciousness, they would soon mess up things
and be at one another's throats again with the result that the same chaotic
situation would develop in the world.
Genesis 3:5d "--knowing good
and evil." Sai Baba channels an explanation of why there is so much
evil in our world, and so little good.
Suffering and misery are the inescapable acts of the cosmic drama. God
does not decree these calamities but man invites them by way of retribution
for his own evil deeds. This is corrective punishment which induces mankind
to give up the wrong path and return to the right path so that he may experience
the godlike condition of sat-chit-ananda -- that is, an existence of wisdom
and bliss. All this is part of the grand synthesis in which the negatives
serve to glorify the positives. Thus death glorifies immortality, ignorance
glorifies wisdom, misery glorifies bliss, night glorifies dawn.
Why there will be no "Second
Coming of Jesus" in our age, as envisioned by the Adventists and Evangelicals.
Although there will be a "Second Coming" of Christhood, or the
"Indwelling Christ" as envisioned by Edgar Cayce and Sai Baba,
and now by his successor "Prema Sai".
So, ... if the Avatar brings the calamities mentioned by you to an immediate
end, which I can, and do, when there is a great need, the whole drama of
creation with its karmic (universal, inescapable duty) law will collapse.
Remember, these calamities occur not because of what God has made of man
but really because of what man has made of man. Therefore, man has to be
unmade and remade with his ego destroyed and replaced by a transcendent
consciousness, so that he may rise above the karmic to command. (Baba in
1976 in SM, 1985, 245.)
1976 - Shirdi Sai
The previous Avatar, Shirdi Baba, laid the base for secular integration
and gave mankind the message [that] duty is work. (Baba in 1976 in SM, 1985,
237.)
1976 - Sathya Sai
The mission of the present Avatar is to make everybody realize that [the]
same God or divinity resides in everyone. People should respect, love, and
help each other irrespective of color or creed. Thus all work can become
a way of worship. (Baba in 1976 in SM, 1985, 237.)
In 1976 I moved to North Carolina
from New York State and became the head elder in a Black Church in a Black
Conference [although I myself am a White Anglo-Saxon male.]
1976 - Prema Sai
Prema Sai, the third Avatar, will promote the evangel news that not only
does God reside in everybody, but everybody is God. That will be the final
wisdom which will enable every man and woman to go to God. (Sai Baba in
1976 in SM, 1985, 237.)
Here Sai Baba clearly states that
he himself will not be the last Avatar in a series of three, but another
will follow to complete the work begun by him. The work of this third Avatar
is to convince everyone that every man and woman is [potentially] GOD!
Although this was the message of
Edgar Cayce, by 1976 Cayce was long dead [he died in 1948}.
1976 - The Three Sais
The three Avatars carry the triple message of work, worship, and wisdom.
.... [The holy mission and divine purpose of the triple incarnation is]
to unite all mankind into one caste or family in the establishment of the
unity -- that is, atmic realization -- in every man or woman, which is the
basis on which the entire cosmic design rests. Once this is realized, the
common divine heritage that binds man to man and man to God will become
apparent and love shall prevail as the guiding light of the universe. (
Baba in 1976 in SM, 1985, 237.)
If indeed the Divine Purpose is
to unite all mankind into one caste or family, it matters not if the third
Avitar is not an Indian, but a white American.
1976 - Humanity One Family
Once this primary lesson [of harmony in word, deed, and thought] is taught
in the family, the school, the college, the society, the cities, the states,
the nations of the world, then man will become conscious of the fact that
all mankind belongs to one family. (Baba in 1976 in SM, 1985, 237.)
Even our public schools must teach
a "New World Order" of peace and harmony among all nations. This
they are doing everywhere but in American Parochial Schools and in Islamic
schools that indoctrinate and train fanatical Islamic terrorists using the
oil money we give them to allow us to ruin the environment and destroy ourselves
over a longer time span.
Everything points to the terror of [a thermonuclear] conflagration coming;
and my mission is to preempt the fires by reestablishing dharma and the
spiritual law of one God, one religion, one language [of the heart] embracing
one humanity. ... I want to build one humanity without any religious, caste
or other barriers in a universal empire of love which could enable my devotees
to feel the whole world as their family. (Baba in 1976 in SM, 1985, 257-8.)
Again the "New Gospel"
that "Prema Sai" must teach in the Western World, especially to
Christians and Muslims who are not listening to Shri Sai Baba and Lord Shiva.
I preach only one religion of love for all, which alone can integrate
the human race into a brotherhood of man under the fatherhood of God. I
know only one language of the heart beyond the mind and intellect which
relates man to man and mankind to God, thereby creating mutual understanding,
cooperation and community life in peace and harmony. On this basis I want
to build one humanity without any religious caste or other barriers in a
universal empire of love which would enable my devotees to feel the whole
world as their own family. (Baba in 1976 in SM, 1985, 258.)
Here Shri Sai Baba has clearly described
principles that are widespread in India, but in the United States are only
clearly stated by such churches as the Unity Centers and churches.
1985 - Baba and America
[Phyllis Krystal:] At about the same time as the announcement of the
Rome Conference [c. 1982-3], Baba had given instructions for the American
Sai centers to start organizing open public meetings to introduce him and
his teachings to a larger audience. It was clear that he was getting ready
to bring his message to the rest of the world. He has said that on his sixtieth
birthday he will announce his special mission to bring balance into the
world chaos fast accelerating everywhere. (SBUE, 1985, 272.)
Sai Baba here shows he realizes
that if his message is to change the world, it must be preached in America,
and through American influence, be spread to other areas.
1986 - Baba's Promise
Mankind can and will be saved. ("Christmas Message, 1986,"
SMFYM, II, 1988, 37.)
Again, there is no question in Sai
Baba's mind that the world can and will be saved. And we can assume that,
since he is speaking for Lord Shiva, this is Shiva's assessment also.
1986 - Use This Opportunity
My children, awaken now while the divine Avatar is here to guide you.
The way ahead is clear, sign-posted through the teachings of the Lord, and
you have this unique opportunity to escape from the darkness into light
simply by putting those teachings into practice in your daily lives.
Open your hearts and let the love flow, knowing that love can overcome
all barriers. See God in everyone and everything and become part of the
universal whole which is My reality. ("Birthday Message, 1986,"
SMFYM, II, 1988, 28.)
My children, the time of awakening has come and that time is NOW. But
for many of you it will pass without any positive action or participation
on your part until, one day, you experience something traumatic which finally
awakens you from your placid sleep. (SMFYM, II, 1988; c1986, 31-2.)
It was on October 13, 1986 that
I first saw myself as "Elijah", and launched "Elijah Revival"
in Garland, N.C. And yes, it was during a time of personal trauma. I was
being divorced by my wife Edie, and was in the midst of a malpractice suit.
1987 - Golden Age is Man's Creation
The Golden Age is the creation of man, not of God. (SMFYM, II, 1988;
c1987, 71.)
In contrast to what was now being
widely preached by Adventists and Evangelicals, that Jesus would come back
and miraculously intervene in the world's affairs, Sai Baba was saying NO,
the "Golden Age" will be "man's creation."
1987 - Transition has Begun
The transition from that unhappy state to the state of bliss cannot be
achieved overnight, but the changes have begun and the seeds are sown. Man
is living at the dawn of a Golden Age and he himself will determine the
timing of the transition by his own acts and thoughts. (SMFYM, II, 1988;
c1987, 71.)
It was in September of 1987 that
Pope John Paul II made an extended tour of the United States. I went to
New Orleans to watch the pope speak to thousands of his admirers.
The time has indeed come for a great awakening, when the days of ignorance
and illusion are replaced by a new Golden Age. That Golden Age is here now,
just waiting for man to move into it and find the peace that has eluded
him all this time. (SMFYM, II, 19 88; c1987, 73-4.
I indeed saw great significance
in this grand tour of Pope John Paul II in September, 1987, and historical
events since then, such as the collapse of the "Iron Curtain"
and Berlin Wall show that a great transition had begun.
1987 - Day of Awakening is Here
The day of awakening is here and the day of reckoning, or weeding out,
is not far away. The cleansing of the world will take place and only
those awakened souls will be left to experience life in the divine state.
Others will fall by the wayside, left behind and lost in a world of illusion
and darkness.
Although Sai Baba is here using
the "left behind" phrases of Evangelical Preachers, like Hal Linsay,
he is talking about the kind of efforts "left behind" people must
be doing to save the world, not escape it!
When the Lord incarnates in human form it is a time of great opportunity
for those who are ready. All of you here today have that opportunity, but
that alone is no guarantee of liberation. Much effort is required, also
an irreversible commitment to the spiritual path, leaving behind for ever
the life of illusion with all its worldly desires, attachments and false
values. So long as desire remains, you cannot firmly establish your feet
on the spiritual path.
Surrender to the Lord and love Him as He loves you, then extend that
love to all mankind, for the Lord is in all. Only in this way can you find
true peace, happiness and ultimate bliss. ("Christmas (II) [1987],"
SMFYM, II, 1988, 63.)
Although the Golden Age lies in the future, man can prepare himself by
turning to God and living his life in complete harmony with the Infinite.
That is possible now, if you surrender your will to God and dedicate your
life to Him. You will become His instrument and, in that capacity, you will
find fulfilment through service to humanity. (SMFYM, II, 1988; c1987, 70.)
Again, Edgar Cayce and Sai Baba
invision a change in humanity brought about slowly from within, not suddenly
from without, as the Evangelical preachers and writers have long taught,
and now Islamic Terrorists are trying to force on an unwilling world.
1987 - Human Family is One
The unity of mankind is the goal.
Unity will come only through love, the motivating force which flows throughout
the universe. That love, that motivating force, is God, and all of you are
part of it. (SMFYM, II, 1988; c1987, 73.)
The unity of mankind will come when man becomes awakened and when he
allows love to flow from his heart all the time. Then he will recognise
the same love in others and see them as they really are, part of himself,
part of God, divine.
Divinity cannot be divided into separate parts, so how can man himself
be separated?
An understanding of this basic truth is the key to the future of mankind.
The time has indeed come for a great awakening, when the days of ignorance
and illusion are replaced by a new Golden Age. That Golden Age is here now,
just waiting for man to move into it and find the peace that has eluded
him all this time.
Everyone has the opportunity to enter the new Golden Age. But each one
has a choice, the free will, to decide his own future, whether he wishes
to continue living in the wilderness, a life of illusion, or move forward
along the spiritual path and enter the new Golden Age.
Perfect peace awaits him at the end of the path which leads to ultimate
liberation. (SMFYM, II, 1988; c1987, 74.)
While the Evangelicals are predicting
terrible punishments of God on everyone not joining their churches, Sai
Baba is here advocating UNITY through love and understanding, amd that a
"Golden Age" on earth is about to start.
1987 - What the Golden Age will be Like
When the Golden Age dawns there will be harmony throughout the world
and love will flow everywhere. All thoughts of hatred will disappear. Today
you cannot visualize such a state because there is chaos everywhere, fighting,
scheming, hatred, evil; all the negative emotions are in the ascendent.
But eventually the change will come. (SMFYM, II, 1988; c1987, 70.)
The arrival of the Golden Age shall be heralded by a new coming as well
as some upheavals, sufficient to uproot the evil that is so prevalent today.
(SMFYM, II, 1988; c1987, 70.)
Sai Baba saw in 1987 that such events
as occurred on 9-11-2001 would indeed occur before the "Golden Age"
of peace and harmony is here.
1987 - Use This Opportunity Fully
My children, the time has come for a great awakening of mankind. You
are the leaders and I have given you this great opportunity to join in the
work of the Lord. Do not lose the opportunity to help lead mankind out of
the wilderness, back to the divine state. That state exists now, if only
you can light the lamp of love which is in the heart of every living soul.
(SMFYM, II, 1988; c1987, 65.)
Man is sick, engrossed in physical and material pursuits which will lead
him nowhere. Yet he continues blindly, imagining that his present way of
life will eventually bring him success and some form of satisfaction. But
he is mistaken and his vision is clouded by illusion. What is he really
doing? He is doing nothing of any consequence, merely wasting his precious
time and ignoring the divine opportunity which he has been given by the
Lord in this lifetime. All of you have the same opportunity, a chance to
see the light in this lifetime, otherwise you would not be here. ("Christmas
[1987]," SMFYM, II, 1988, 62.)
Couch potatoes, eating themselves
into blobs of blubber, and driving their SUVs down crowded interstates to
find a parking space as near to an easy job as possible is not "heaven".
Not while millions are starving and can't find safe drinking water!
1987 - Only the Spiritual Path is Fruitful
Arise, My children, awaken to the truth, listen to the word of God and
know that only the spiritual path can lead you out of the wilderness. Love
is the key, love is the way. Open your heart and let the love flow. (SMFYM,
II, 1988; c1987, 64.)
This "spiritual path"
is not just a call to those with talents of persuasion to go to ministerial
school to get a "license to steal", but to everyone who can hear
God speak and the angels sing!
1987 - Spiritually Advanced Souls are Alive to Help
Many spiritually advanced souls are here today, full of understanding,
and they all have a part to play in helping humanity. Often, much effort
and sacrifice are required because the task of spreading the truth is never
easy. Too many prejudices exist from the past. However, the world is crying
out in agony, and there are more and more people everywhere searching for
the truth and seeking a light to draw them out of their darkness. You have
the chance to radiate that light and you should join in this great work.
A gradually growing band of believers
in the power of love and unity, marching into the future, hand in hand.
So, in your lives, by your examples, live and practise My message, knowing
that some will understand and others will not. Have no concern with the
outcome of your efforts, for some people are ready and others are not. Each
one is free to go his own way in his own time. Many will choose to remain
in darkness with all the attachments that hold them back from the true path.
But, eventually, their time will come and, one day, all will be re-united
in the Kingdom of God. (SMFYM, II, 1988; c1987, 58.)
The real, and inevitable, dawn of
a New Age.
1987 - Start Now
It is the only path, the divine path, and it is there in front of you
now. Start the new journey hand in hand with God at this very moment and
never turn back. The path ahead is glorious and will bring peace of mind,
something which has eluded you for so long. And the Lord will always be
there to guide and protect you. (SMFYM, II, 1988; 1987, 45.)
Here the message of the third Avitar,
"Prema Sai" is being decribed once more by Sai Baba. But Sai Baba
is giving it primarily in India.
Also Sai Baba has clearly said before
this that another is coming.
The Lord is omnipresent and appears in human form from age to age. Many
of you have seen the Lord, but others should know that the Lord is always
present everywhere, dwelling in your heart. He remains awake, even while
you sleep, a sleep which continues for decades before you become awakened.
The "age to age" terminology
shows why it is that the "coming one" had not yet appeared to
make himself known to everyone. The New Age was expected to occur around
2000 AD and it was only 1987. Thirteen years must pass.
Now is the time for that awakening, the awakening of man to the truth.
The days of illusion and wrong living should be put behind you for they
lead nowhere. ... Once you experience this awakening, you leave behind you
for ever the attachment to materialism and the illusion that goes with it.
Instead, you live on the divine level and place yourself in the hands of
the Lord who looks after all your needs.
During the spring and summer of
1988, I trained as a actor in the "Worhy is the Lamb" Passion
Play in the Crystal Coast Amphitheatre, then played a Pharisee before thousands
of tourists.
Also I wrote several small religious
plays and had actors act them out while I filmed them.
During this period I also did a
number of Pentecostal-type healings of supposedly incurable diseases.
I was also writing songs and Christmas
carols, and playing them on keyboards and synthesizers.
Christmas is truly a time of celebration and the Lord waits patiently,
watching for signs of an awakening of those souls who have been struggling
in the darkness for so long. The Lord has shown the way and many have heard
the call. Everyone here today should listen again to that call and leave
behind them their lives of illusion and attachment to materialism, a type
of life that conceals the truth and the way ahead. Turn, instead, to the
spiritual path and realise your own divinity. That indeed would be something
to celebrate! I will always be with you to help and sustain you. ("Christmas
[1987]," SMFYM, II, 1988, 53-4.)
The "Celebration Movement"
was small back in 1987, but its growth is here anticipated by Shri Sai Baba.
1987 - The Avatar will Lead You
Today, the divine Avatar is here to lead man back from the brink, back
towards the ultimate goal which is liberation and the merging, once again,
with God. The process has begun and many are now following the spiritual
path, the road to ultimate liberation. (SMFYM, II, 1988; c1987, 56.)
Here, when Sai Baba is saying "the
divine Avatar is here", he may not be speaking only of himself, but
also of his successor, "Prema Sai," the third of the Three Avatars
commissioned to bring about the "Golden Age".
1990 - Reason the Lord Comes in Human Form
People could not stand the Lord in super-human form. ... If the Lord
came in all His majesty people would be afraid and would have no opportunity
to know and love him. It is only when the Lord comes in a human body that
people are able to approach him and learn to love him and know him even
a little bit. But one should not make the mistake of thinking that is all
there is. ... For instance, the airplane flying high in the sky descends
to the airport. But one should not make the mistake of thinking that the
plane is a ground machine because they see it on the ground. In like fashion,
although the Lord has made a landing here on earth, so to speak, He is not
limited to His human form. (SV, 1990, 66.)
This is not in line with what people
in the Western Evangelical World were preaching in the 1990s. A Super-human
Jesus, indeed the "God" Jesus, was expected to return to give
his sheep-like "Children" special privileges just for believing
in Him, while the rest of the unbelieving world was to be tortured horribly
by a wrathful God.
1990 - Sai is the Totality of Divine Energy
The totality of Divine Energy has come unto humanity as Sathya Sai. ...
This is a human form in which every Divine Entity, every Divine Principle,
that is to say, all the names and forms ascribed by man to God are manifest.
(GDOE, 1990, 31.)
People looking at Sai Baba, and
listening to him speak, have not always seen "God" [or the Devil],
but have instead see a pitiful little man making outragious claims of Divinity.
However, if an omnipresent and all-powerful God exists, then He [or She]
must also exist as Sai Baba, and speak through Sai Baba, and use Sai Baba
to save the world.
1990 - Universal Acceptance of Sai Avatar Predicted
My name and form will ... be found getting established everywhere. They
will occupy every inch of the world. (GDOE, 1990, 37.)
This is indeed happening, and will
continue to spread like yeast throughout the world.
1990 - Success of Mission Guaranteed
The success of the task for which I have come will very soon reverberate
throughout the world. (GDOE, 1990, 58.)
Remember, God has incarnated Himself as SAI. I am Truth and My Sankalpa
[wishes, will, determination] is inevitable. (SBNNGA, II, 74.)
1990 - Golden Age Unfolding
A silent revolution is going to pass through every structure of human
society. Those who are present in this hall and all those who have total
faith in Sai, though they may not be here, have a golden opportunity of
earning My grace and thus [achieving] their goal; i.e., Liberation. If you
miss it, you miss it for ever. (SBNNGA, II, 1990, 74.)
Instead of a "Secret Rapture"
for Christians only, a "silent rvolution" that will effect everyone
on earth.
And in the events of 1989 and 1990,
Shri Sai Baba saw signs that it was beginning "on schedule".
[Justice V.B. Eradi:] Bhagawan has declared that His objective is to
bring about a global integration of the entire mankind where the whole human
race will be united as one world-family, knit together by strong bonds of
mutual love and respect believing in the fatherhood of God and the brotherhood
of man. The recent most unexpected developments in the international sphere,
such as the sudden termination of the cold war, the removal of walls and
barriers separating Eastern and Western Europe and the most welcome signs
of establishment of friendly relations between the "Big Super Powers",
which were hitherto ranged on opposite sides and were piling up nuclear
and conventional weapons for use against each other, are clear signs that
the divine Sankalpa is fast taking concrete shape. Bhagawan has His own
time schedule for completion of His programmes. ... The day ... when the
whole humanity gets unified as one big family observing strictly the principles
of Truth, Righteousness, Love, Peace and Nonviolence ... will mark the establishment
of the Sai Rashtra and blessed indeed are those who will be able to experience
that Heaven on earth. (SV, 1990, 25.)
1990 - Our Mission
Your mission has begun. ... Each of you has a unique and valuable part
to play in this lifetime. Only those whom I have called can serve me.
This is "God Calling",
not Sai Baba calling someone on the telephone to complete some minor local
task.
My Mission has now reached that point in time when each one of you now
has work to do. This planet has a purpose in the great galaxy in which it
is held. That purpose is now unfolding before your eyes. I call upon you
to radiate the Devotion within you so that its unseen power will envelop
all who come into your orbit. To successfully perform your part always remain
centred upon me. Allow yourself to impart that purity of heart within you
towards all human beings and all living creatures and do not reach for the
fruits of your work. This part of My Mission is performed in absolute silence.
You are My instruments from whom My love will pour. Be always aware that
the moment you let your ego descend upon you, My work ceases. When you have
overcome your negative unmindfulness you will again become My source. The
multiplication of My Love will be felt throughout the world. I have drawn
you to Me. I have made great steps in My Mission over these past Incarnations.
By mentioning "past incarnations"
here, Sai Baba is showing he is channeling Lord Shiva, whose life is infinately
longer than that of any single human being. As Shiva must work through individual
human beings to be successful in influencing human affairs without destroying
our world, so must He reincarnate in successive lives.
My work is ceaseless and so your work, too, is without end. Know that
I am within you and without you. There is no difference. Rid yourselves
of petty matters for ever more. You are now ME and I am now THEE. There
is no difference. My Darshan will pour forth from ME to and through you.
You may be unaware of this constant action. Be ever pure in heart and soul,
and mankind in your lifetime will benefit from your unique qualities. (SV,
1990, 126.)
Success is assured for those who
incarnate Shiva and His son Jesus Christ. And "Prema Sai" will
continue to preach this until there are millions of such incarnations!
1991 - No Cataclysms Ahead
[Kasturi:] In categorical terms, Bhagavan Baba repudiated, on February
13, [1991] at Prasanthi Nilayam, certain reports circulated in various countries
attributing to Him predictions of various disasters facing the world in
the coming years. (SS, Vol. 34, No. 3, Mar. 1991, 63.)
Some persons in overseas countries as well as some people within India
have been [saying] that Swami has stated that in a short while the world
will be deluged by a great flood. [According to them] large areas will get
submerged and ... other disasters will overtake the world and many countries
will suffer very much. Such thoughts have never occurred to Swami and will
never occur. These are the fancies of ... idle minds. (SS, Vol. 34, No.
3, Mar. 1991, 63.)
Here Sai Baba is mentioning certain
predictions attributed to Edgar Cayce and others [Pole Shift, Planet X,
certain Nostradamus poems, and others]and denying that they would occur
as predicted on the dates predicted.
In no circumstance should devotees believe in such stories. Nor should
they give them currency by passing them on by word of mouth. ... It is a
sign of weakness to listen to such stories or discuss them. (SS, Vol. 34,
No. 3, Mar. 1991, 63.)
Over the vast globe, there may be some mishaps here and there, from time
to time. The Iran-Iraq conflict lasted ten years. You should not consider
it a major war. Even in India, terrorist activities have been going on in
the Punjab. Is it a major struggle? Some disgruntled individuals have been
resorting to these methods. (SS, Vol. 34, No. 3, Mar. 1991, 63.)
No disaster is imminent for the world. (SS, Vol. 34, No. 3, Mar. 1991,
63.)
This should be reassuring for those
who do not actually wish for the world, or our present civilization to be
destroyed.
1991 - The Golden Age will Come
Fear not, My children, all will be well. Love and light will replace
the darkness and a new era will be upon you very soon. (SSSBFM, 1991, 110.)
After the storm there will be a completely different beginning and the
atmosphere will be completely different. It will be ... the age of love,
harmony and cooperation replacing the age of war, ... hated, ... and greed.
(SSSBFM, 1991, 223.)
Love and peace will ... cleanse the horrors and excesses of the dark
ages which today pollute the very atmosphere. (SSSBFM, 1991, 10.)
Life will change, it will improve and you will experience a richness
in the quality of life which has eluded you in the past. (SSSBFM, 1991,
221.)
Sai Baba called the "New World
Order" the "Perfect Sai Order", and said it would be here
sooner than it seems possible in our present state of affairs.
[Kasturi:] Let us wait joyfully for the new world order, the Perfect
Sai Order, not in a far off future, but very soon, sooner than any human
mind can comprehend, looking at the present state of affairs in all walks
of life. (SS, Vol. 34, No. 8, Aug. 199 1, 224.)
1991 - Day of Awakening, Day of Reckoning, Hour of God
The day of awakening is not far away and when it comes there will be
a revelation of the true power of God [Gokak's 'Hour of God'?], a manifestation
of the omnipresence of the Lord. This will be the signal of a great move
forward and the weeding out of those who are [not] ready to accept the challenge
of the moment. (SSSBFM, 1991, 223.)
One of those being "awakened"
was myself. In 1989 I had met a number of angels in Jerusalem and in the
Negev. One of these may have been Jesus as a time-traveler. After this year
I was to get more and more such experiences. And of course, if I was chosen
to become "Prema Sia", then Sai Baba could be expected to say
more about "Prema Sai".
1991 - Prema Sai
Prema Sai ... will work ceaselessly for the good of the world and will
establish love, goodwill, and peace. His Name and Fame will reach every
corner of the earth. He will be the Universal Guru, the World Teacher, a
Leader of leaders. ... His Voice will be heard all over the world. He will
receive universal recognition and devotion and will directly lead the world
towards truth, love and peace. (SSAV, n.d., 34.)
1991 - Role of India
India will be the leader of the world in all respects - spiritually,
culturally, socially, politically and economically. (SSAV, n.d., 34.)
[She will] play the role of World Teacher. (SSSBFM, 1991, 224.)
All her past glory, culture and traditions will be revived and she will
shine forth as the leading nation of the world. This is how it was yugas
[ages] ago and this is how it will be once more. (SSAV, n.d., 34.)
In 1992 I read "Jesus and
the Riddle of the Dead Sea Scrolls." Then I went to the Dead Sea
area and confirmed what Thiering had written.
In 1995 I visited Kashmir and India.
And in December of 2002 the "rest of the story" became
very clear to me, as I am now making it clear to you!
1991 - Responsibility of Humanity
Now is the time for change, change of vibration, change of ideals of
consciousness. It is achieved through closer links and better communication
with God. Now is the time to start. (SSSBFM, 1991, 222-3.)
Transformation must begin with the individual. When the individual changes,
the world will change. This transformation has to take to take place in
the minds of men. Right thoughts will lead to right actions. (SS, Vol. 34,
No. 1, Jan. 1991, 4.)
To keep your minds pure in such [an] environment [as today's world],
fill your hearts with love and keep your daily actions pure and unsullied.
... Avoid wasting of food, time, money and energy. When you move in the
outside world, your life should be exemplary. Look upon God as your only
true Friend. Follow the dictates of your conscience. (SS, Vol. 34, No. 9,
Sept. 1991, 252.)
Shedding all fear, carry on your work with courage and determination,
without any worry about the future, and plunge into service activities.
If you act with this faith, you will be able to serve the nation well. (SS,
Vol. 34, No. 1, Jan. 1991, 10.)
When there is understanding and harmony in the family, peace will spread
to the community, and from there to the nation and the world. Unity confers
joy and peace. (SS, Vol. 34, No. 1, Jan. 1991, 4.)
I was raised in a Sectarian environment.
A cult mentality pervaded my life. I had a long way to go, and many of my
friends and family have yet to take the first uncertain steps on the road
upwards that I have now almost reached the pinnicle on. I now know what
"Unity" really means, and that it is not an evil word.
1991 - Engage in Service
Always remembering that you are a fragment of the Divine, you have to
engage yourselves in service. No Government or other service organisation
has this attitude. Only Sathya Sai Organisations can render service successfully
in this spirit. Very soon you will experience the bliss and peace to be
got from such service. Whatever the difficulties or obstacles, you are bound
to overcome them. These are incidental to any undertaking. Do not bother
about what has happened in the past. Get immersed in the tasks of the present.
Render service with a pure and selfless heart. The delight of the individual
gladdens the Divine. Equally the Divine esteems you. Do everything with
the Lord's name on your lips. Develop all that is good in you and share
that goodness with one and all. (SS, Vol. 34, No. 1, Jan. 1991, 11.)
How is the mind to be purified? Through service to society with dedication
and identification with everyone. You have to cultivate this feeling of
oneness with all.... By engaging yourselves in service, you develop this
sense of oneness. (SS, Vol. 34, No. 1, Jan. 1991, 6.)
The Unity motto is just two words,
six letters, - "All One".
1991 - It Will Happen as I Say
I have given the warning. I have given My message a thousand times and
no one who hears My words can proclaim ignorance. (SSSBFM, 1991, 110.)
What I will, must take place; what I plan must succeed. (SSSBFM, 1991,
117.)
It will be just so. Mark my words. But few will listen, very few. (SSSBFM,
1991, 223.)
Yes, Sai Baba, few do indeed listen.
But it will not always be so!
1993
The winnowing
After the harvest when the sheaves of grains are winnowed, the wind blows
away all the chaff, leaving only the grains behind. Through this process,
the true devotees will remain steadfast. The wavering puppets will drift
away. This is the process of winnowing. (SS, Vol. 36, No. 12, Dec. 1993,
333.)
1997
My airplane about to take off
When an airplane is about to take off, it must first approach the runway.
When it reaches the runway, it must make a full turn in order to face the
direction of takeoff. This turn is navigated slowly by the aircraft. After
the turn has been completed, the airplane receives a signal from the tower
and begins to accelerate rapidly for takeoff. When the craft has reached
sufficient velocity, it leaves the ground. Swami's mission has made this
turn to face the runway. The 70th birthday was the signal from the tower
to accelerate. In the 75th birthday, the airplane will leave the ground.
(Sri Sathya Sai Newsletter, USA, 31, Winter 1996-1997, 29.)
On December 15, 1997, I met either
a reincarnation Of Jesus Christ in Jerusalem, or Christ Himself as a time-traveler,
and He commissioned me to play the role of the "Arrogant Judge"
of Luke 18:1-8. This is just another facet of the "Prema Sai"
role.
OM SAI RAM
Today the seeds are still in the ground, slowly germinating, as the teachings
of the Lord begin to spread throughout the world and infiltrate the mind
of man. Soon those seeds will begin to grow, and what emerges will brighten
the world as the beauty of the absolute truth begins to reach so many people.
It is a process which takes time and the new Golden Age will evolve gradually.
So you should live in hope.... Let the divinity within shine forth and
become one of the great beacons to light up the world and hasten the arrival
of the new Golden Age. It is there now for some, those enlightened souls
who have already reached the state of God realisation. It is that awakened
state that will lead to the new age. (SMFYM, II, 1988, 71.)
In 1998 I started doing Bible Computer
Codes. During 1999 and 2000 I built the Healthark.com website and told whoever
would listen about Jesus the Essene and his wife, Mary Magdalene.
In 2003, Jesus in Kashmir.com started
broadcast -ing to the millions who surf the net that Jesus was a king of
Kashmir between 25 AD and 89 AD.
And in 2004 New Age God.com is spreading
the words and desires of Lord Shiva to the world in as direct a form as
is possible at this time.
