Is Shirdi Sai the most popular seer in generation next :

Shri Saibaba, an incarnation of Lord Dattatreya is the sole refuge of the devotees. He is amongst the most influential spiritual gurus of India whose stories creates faith in devotees hearts and they easily get supreme bliss.

Baba with his miraculous powers and captivating teachings ruled the hearts of all those who were blessed to have his contact from 1838 to 1918(in his life time) and is still in minds of millions of those who are experiencing his grace every day. He is enthroned in hearts of people at large and the number is growing with each passing day.

Sai baba is popular amongst the young ones for many reasons:

· 1. His popularity is because of the messages he gave in his life time. Though this present generation was not that fortunate to take the words of knowledge directly from this great sage but are indebted to all those who wrote the works on Shirdi Sai and helped all in knowing the life of the one who spent his life time for the welfare of all those who approached him in their difficult times. All of them knew the value of a gem and hence they brought out the brilliance of the crystal to devotees notice. If these stories are listened carefully, they give the satisfaction of being in Shirdi in company of great saint, Sai Samarth.

· 2. Sai Baba of Shirdi is the epitome of reverence, a guiding force who generates supreme faith and confidence among his devotees looking for salvation. As a divine mother he is saturated with love for those who seek his help and bestow temporal benefits on them. With his simple philosophy, his legacy is still On amongst the young ones.

· 3. Sow good seeds to have a rich harvest in future. This is not true only when we talk about farmers sowing seeds to yield eatables or other products but is valid for all of us as well. We should inculcate good morals in our kids to ensure their movement in right direction in future. Tiny seeds of Sai Bhakti sown by parents grow into a mighty banyan tree of Sai movement and all those who being lucky and blessed to hear the stories from their parents create further the brigade of young Sai followers. So count is increasing every single day and so his popularity in young minds.

· 4. His teachings left an impact in the minds of all those who approached him in his 80 years of existence and his stories let generation next feel supreme bliss as well. He always uttered Allah Malik and laid stress on being united. He treated everyone with love irrespective of cast, colour and creed. He always uttered words of love and said there is only one God and he is omnipresent. There is no other caste than humanity. Work for causes and see lord in all beings is what he focused upon and his teachings are creating an unbounded love for him in young ones.

· 5. Being a follower of Shirdi Sai from past 25 years, I have seen him raining nectar in the form of his blessings and have experienced love for him in youngsters and small kids. Witnessed every small deed of 2 year old child who knows the importance of Udi, sacred ash by Babaji which helped in saving devotees from calamities and it is believed that it has the power to do wonders. Cultural and religious values by parents remain with one for the life time. The way one is nurtured remains forever. Small child who has not even learned to speak words of praise is that much vigilant to the happenings that she automatically bows down by seeing the face of Sai. Victory be unto Sai who is the abode of peace and mercy.

Yes, he is popular amongst large masses because of his kind love for all. Yes, we are blessed to have him as father, mother, brother and a guru. It is possible to gauge the showers of rain, capture the wind in a leather bag but his leelas can’t be measured. He transcends land, air, world, light and heaven. He is not localized.
May the loving grace and blessings of Sai Baba shower in abundance upon you all. Peace and blessedness be unto you. Sai Palanhaar !
