Baba
shows us the peaceful path by assuring that 'Whoever puts his feet
on Shirdi soil, his sufferings would come to an end. The entry to
Shirdi itself is an end of all misery'. Human life is a mixture
of pain and pleasure. Darkness is followed by light. We become diffident
and impatient in grief. For people caught in the mid-sea of sorrows,
Shirdi shrine is an Abode of Peace. The Power of Sai's Divinity,
which envelops Shirdi, answers our every right prayer. Baba directly
assures us "Come, come to Shirdi! Mother Sai waits for you
in all times, to soothe your sorrow-stricken hearts with love".
To the Merciful Sai Mother, all, irrespective of their caste or
creed, are Her children. The soil of Shirdi is eager to feel the
touch of the foot-prints of her children.
We should become Sai's children before entering Shirdi. And to become
worthy children of Baba, we have to offer, 'faith and patience'
in the form of two spiritual coins of donation. Those who enter
Shirdi in full faith, will get rid of all troubles and problems.
Assuring that Shirdi is not an ordinary land but the land of the
Spirit-Power, Baba has been comforting the grief- stricken and relieving
the hardships of the mankind
even today. Shirdi, in fact, is our heavenly abode. Let us seek
the shelter of Shirdi and live in Supreme Peace and Ever-new Bliss.
