Swami's divine body lies in Sai Kulwanth Hall,- 25th April 2001

(Posted by SBOI-Group member Satish Naik) 


Om Sairam dearest Sai Family,
As Swami's divine body lies in Sai Kulwanth Hall, its 11 pm here now in Parthi and still people are waiting in line patiently for the last darshan. The lines for gents is gone beyond Hanuman temple and the ladies line is also more or less the same. Inspite of this, darshan is over in 30 minutes which itself says how nice are the arrangements.
As Swami lies there in the middle of the hall, every one feels He is just sleeping and He will be coming back. no body is willing to believe that our Swami is no more (read as physically). But that is life. Full of uncertainities. With Swami, He has told us " Love My uncertainity". Even though this is also His "uncertainity", no one seems to love it. Even now, I saw people crying loudly for Swami after having His darshan and there was one woman who was telling one police man by Ganesh gate that "My Swami is just sleeping. Please don't think that He has left us" the police man tried his best to console that poor lady but in vain. These scenes were commonly seen since that painful announcement.
Today, Sachin Tendulkar came to Parthi and he was in tears watching Swami. Sachin Tendulakar was a bleesed devotee who first came to Swami in the year 1995 (if iam correct) was introduced to Swami by another legendary cricketer of yester years, Sunil Gavaskar. Sachin Tendulkar, a Shirdi Baba devotee, was fascinated by Swami and also His yeomen service that He was doing for the mankind. Even though, his personal conversations with Swami are not spoken in public (neither he speaks in public) but there was one occassion when he came to Swami in the year 1999, after the historic test series against Pakistan.
Sachin Tendulkar who uses a heavy bat, developed back pain during this series with Pakistan. He immediately came to Swami and our Lord, in His usual style asked, How are you? Swami, the divine Master likes to play with words and also gives a very strong message with simple words. the answer from Sachin was "Body pains Swami". Sachin who was expecting a reply or remedy for the problem, got a stange answer from Swami. Swami replied "yes yes Body Pains". Probably Sachin didn't understand Swami's words and Swami explained, When you say Body Pains, it means when you come with a BODY, you are bound to have pain. This was a very remarkable statement by Swami which speaks about giving up of body attachment, which He was practicing till His last breath.

 


Another cricketers who came to Parthi were Lakshman and Srisanth. Hyderabad born Lakshman is also a devotee for many years now and couple of years ago, Swami named his little son as Sarvajit, which also happened to be the name of the telugu new year.
Ministers, Vilas Rao Deshmukh, Praful Patel and many others had Swami's darshan. Many thousands, men and women had darshan today. Local devotees were very busy in suppling water, biscuit packets, food to all the devotees lining up for darshan. They were not "leaving" any one without taking food. Many devotees were touched with this kind gesture and if Swami were to be alive (in the body) He would have mentioned this kind gesture by His Villagers. Swami used to be very happy when some one from village excels or shows this kind of kindness to their fellow human beings.
Mean while the government announced that Swami's burial will take place on Wednesday 27th April around 9 am to 9.30 AM which will be attended by Sri.L.K.Advani, BJP leader, and many chief ministers are expected to attend the burial ceremony which will be attended by Swami's family members and selected devotees.
Tomorrow Tuesday the 26th April, Swami's body will be kept till 6pm for darshan after which the darshan will stop, to make way for final arrangements for the burial.
