But with all this wealth, he was totally unhappy because he did not have a son.
Ratanji Shapurji Wadia was a multi millionaire. In Sai Sat Charita there is a similar incident. He got sage Rishyasringa to perform Putrakameshti Yaaga ( a yaaga for childbirth) and was blessed with 4 sons Ram, Lakshman, Bharatha and Satrugan In Ramanyan, King Dasaratha had all the prosperity but he was gloomy and sad because he had no son. Sairam took His Mahasamadhi in the year 1918, and even till 1918 many people did not realize that He was an avatar Purusha. Even though Mahalsapati invited Sai, he did not allow Him to stay in the Kandoba temple but asked Him to stay in the Dwarakamai because Sainath looked like a fakir. Only after reading all the fifty-one chapters, we come to realize that Sai is God. Similarly, when we begin to read Sai Sat Charitra, we think of Sairam only as a human being. This happened only towards the end of Ramayana. But the divine qualities that Ram possessed made people conclude that Ram was an avatar Purusha - the incarnation of Lord Srihari.
In the Tretya Yuga, Ram is portrayed in the beginning only as a human being and not as an incarnation of God. Sai Ram is the taraka mantra and in this Kaliyug, in which Baba lived, only namasmarana can remove our fear and carry us safely across the ocean of worldly existence. He told them to leave all cleverness and always utter “Sai, Sai” and by uttering the name of Sai all our shackles will be removed and we will be free. In Chapter X of Sai Sat Charita, Hemadpant says that Baba never prescribed any asanas, sitting between the fires, sacrifices or eight fold yoga to his sishyas. It is a very difficult task but Lord Shiva could manage this because every moment He used to utter the taraka mantra “Ram, Ram”, and He could bear the pain and the ill-effect of poison by uttering Rama nama. If he spit it out the entire universe would be in flames. He is called so because, he consumed the deadly poison and kept it in his throat without swallowing. Lord Shiva is also called as Garlakanta or Neelakanta. We should feel happy that Shirdi is also Ayodhya for us as we have Hanuman and Ram in the form of Sai. Here also Hanuman was ahead of Baba to greet and receive His master on His arrival to Dwarakamayi. Similarly, at Shirdi, there is a Maruthi Mandir besides Dwarakamayi, where Shirdi Sai Baba lived. And wherever Ram nama is heard, Hanuman is sure be around. Hanuman will be ahead of Ram to greet Ram on his arrival. Where ever Ram is you can find Hanuman around. So this proves to us that Baba and Ram are one and the same and both are beyond death and mortality. It must be true as Sai was a realized soul and an ageless chiranjeevi like Ram. One day, to the Dhulia Commission officer at Shirdi, Baba disclosed his age as lakhs of years which means, for lakhs of years Baba was Ram. I will give you relevant examples which will help you conclude that Sai is Ram. That is the reason for the discourse today. To test this I started reading Bhagavatam and I also found Sai in Bhagavatam. Hemadpant has said, “when I read Ramayan, I could see Sai in Ramayan and when I read Bhagavatam I again could see Sai in Bhagavatam”. You must be aware that Ramayan contains, Bala Kandam, Ayodhya kandam, Aaranya kandam, Kishkinta kandam, Sundara kandam and Yudha kandam, I am taking few incidents from all this to bring out the similarity between Ram and Sai. My object is to prove that Sai is Ram and Ram is Sai by projecting similar incidents from Ramayan and Sai Sat charitra. What is the greatness of Sairam? Sai is indeed Ram. Nowadays all Sai devotees greet each other as “Sai Ram”. Baba is there in every soul, so I convey my pranams to everybody here.
He who sees me in all creatures is my beloved”.
Knowing this you see me inside yourself as well as in all human beings. Barring your name and form, there exists in you, as well as in all beings, a sense of being or consciousness of existence. In Sai Sat Charitra Baba says, “ you need not go anywhere in search of Me.
