Whenever I read something that you post on your blog about Shirdi Baba, my faith gets reaffirmed. <br /><br />One thing that has always touched and moved me to tears is the fact that Shirdi Baba went begging for food. He was an Avatar, just like Sathya Sai Baba. So I used to feel very bad and say in my heart "Swami, what all You have done for us human beings! You are God. Why did You have to go begging for food in Your Shirdi Avatar?" <br /><br />But then, as always, Baba gives His message in the book itself. Nothing that the Avatar does is without a deep significance. Baba was just washing away the sins of all those from whom He collected food. So it is for the benefit of those people that He went begging for food. Whatever the Avatar does is never for His own personal benefit but only for the good of others. How blessed we are to know such a Lord in this birth of ours! <br /><br />I really feel blessed to know Shirdi Baba and Sathya Sai Baba in this birth of mine. I know that there is absolutely no difference between the two except for their forms. The divinity within is the same.Aarthi Krishnanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14623368078756467850noreply@blogger.com
