Maha Samadhi

“The body, composed of the five elements is perishable and transient, but the Self within is the thing – Absolute Reality which is immortal and intransient. The pure Being, Consciousness or Brahma, the Ruler and Controller of the senses and mind is the thing Sai. This pervades all things in the universe and there is no space without it. For fulfilling His mission He assumed the body and after it was fulfilled, He threw away the body (the finite aspect), and assumed His infinite aspect. Sai ever lives, as also the previous Incarnation of God Datta, Shri Narsimha Sarasvati of Ganagapur. His passing away is only an outward aspect, but really He pervades all animate and inanimate things and is their Inner Controller and Ruler. This can be, and is even now experienced by many who surrender themselves completely to Him and worship Him with whole-hearted devotion.”
Sai Satcharitra
Chapter 43-44

Baba with humble offering of love at your divine feet, which are ultimately the final abode of sanity to every Sai devotee. Often being a Sai devotee, one gets to know very early in their journey that, if there is one day of the year which has highest significance, it is – VIJAYA DASIMI DAY (punyatithi). The day our lord choose to leave this earthly plane and go back to join the cosmic reality.The Sai9Healing Centre was one of the most special places, where the healing offered is exuberating.  Approach to healing is refreshing and not something which one would have witnessed ever before. Healer is a vessel that the divine chooses to send light to the humankind and unless god willing one cannot experience transformative changes. Baba has made the choice to serve the mankind by channelling through Ravi, as he knows the best way to help his devotees. The uniqueness is attributed to the lord himself as it is his divine will which is the underlying driving force.

Every year Samadhi day is celebrated with joy and outpouring love from marking Baba’s eternal presence across the globe. This divine day always signifies, as an event of rejoice and celebration.
  • Baba’s state of meditative consciousness is treated as birth and that is why all devotees collectively immerse into the act of bhakti, where they garland him with tears of merriment.
  • One gets reminded that death is an event which is meant to occur in everyone’s lifetime, so ever be alert to work towards the goal of life
  • Baba always emphasised on reading SAI SATCHARITRA, singing the glory of God, chanting lord’s name, feeding the poor etc. Our human world is constantly seeking for something externally but however on his day devotees are given an opportunity to come out of material world through service.
  • Baba encouraged to celebrate all auspicious days with one motive to bring all communities irrespective or caste and creed onto one platform. This is to make all of mankind realise that we are divine souls and break all walls of separation.
  • Baba’s love for his devotees is a blessing that they carry since many lifetimes. The very opportunity to celebrate this special day is possible, when Baba himself will’s it. On the day we witness a special aroma where his fragrance spreads through our veins reminding us of our very existence
  • Baba set an example to us that one should celebrate death as one would celebrate birth. The only truth in the vast existence is Baba himself and rest all is illusion.

Note the below facts from history which speak further about this auspicious special occasion of SHIRDI SAI BABA. The day that Baba took Mahasamadhi, Tuesday 15 October 1918, was a very auspicious one for Hindus; it also happened to be the Muslim month of Ramzan. October 15 was the Hindu festival of holy Vijayadashami, a few minutes into Ekadashi (a significant lunar cycle in the Hindu calendar). The timing is a clear indication that this day is for awaken collective consciousness within the mankind

 

Believe Me, though I pass away, My bones in My tomb would be speaking, moving and communicating with those, who would surrender themselves wholeheartedly to Me.
