The
devotion of remembering is manifested in recalling God, in Form,
Body and Name by fixing our mind on Sai. It is several times a greater
devotion to remember Sai, who is beyond name, form, quality, feeling
or nature and to fill our minds with Sai Love and recall His noble
deeds. Remembering Sai before we start any work, to remain in his
thought as long as we do the work, to see Sai in every particle
and feel His presence in every moment are also an integral part
of the sadhana of remembering Sai, the Abode of Supreme Mercy. Indeed,
with great love for Sai, helping every being in trouble as if it
were a service to Sai, giving support and dedicating the result
of such actions to Sai would be a pure form of remembering Sai.
Mhalsapathy, an ardent devotee of Khandoba, had been in the service
of Sai Baba and was blessed to be in His thoughts. He left his ancestral
occupation and dedicated himself to the service of Sai. Saying "Welcome
Sai". Mhalsapathy, the priest, with deep devotion invited Sai,
who came as a Fakir. He is a jewel among the devotees for he kept
Sai's head on his lap with courage and patience when Baba withdrew
the life-force from His body for seventy two hours. He is a blessed
soul to live in the thoughts of Baba. Let us constantly remember
and rejoice in the Presence of Sainath and get gloriously blessed
by Baba's grace.
