Whom does Baba like?


There are so many people thronging to the temples of sai baba. A question arises in the mind Whom does really baba like? Partially we get an answer when damu anna asked similar question that out of all the people who approach baba, do really everyone get benefitted. For which baba answered with the example of a mango tree. How good yield it would be if all the flowers are turned out to be fruits. But what is the reality, some are fallen during the initial state, and some more at later stages. And finally very few actually turn out to be the yield.
And in another scenario, baba told that whom he can call a disciple, he doesnt have any, if someone follows him like he has followed his guru, then he can consider him to be his disciple. And baba said that he doesnt have anyone whom he can really call his disciple.

Yet in another scenario, when somone asked a worldly desire, some one commented that when approaching a sadguru like saibaba, is it reasonable to ask for a worldly desire . For which baba answered that no one can come to him on their own, it is he who brings them to him on various reasons. And by initially fulfilling their desires, slowly put them on to the path where they reach a state where they ask for what baba wants to give them.

So basing on all what baba said under different scenarios, we can come to a conclusion that we going to baba is not by our own effort or idea, rather it is his mercy and his wish which is taking us to him. Now when we will come to a stage where baba likes us. It is so simple, when we can follow the footsteps shown by him having faith(shradhha) and saburi(patience). These two words are the total summary of what baba had spoken and lived all his life in shirdi.

So what needs to be learnt, what needs to be followed. We have a great encyclopedia namely sai charitra. We can refer to this encyclopedia for all our day to day activities, check how baba acted under those circumstances and we need to implement it in our life with utmost faith on baba and have patience till the end result comes, not the intermediary result. So faith on baba, faith on self when doing some work, and having patience till the end result comes.

The best example can be given with a homeopathic medicine scenario. In homeopathy any particular case, when given medicine for initially will show the symptoms of aggrevation, and later when we continue with faith in long run gives results which will completely cure the disease. Similar is the case when we try to follow the footsteps of baba, sometimes we feel that we are getting wrong results of implementing what baba said. But if we unbiasedly follow the footsteps of baba, defineltly the end result will be good for us. Actually we expect the result to be like what we expected, but baba will give us result which is good for us. There lies the difference why people leave baba in between is because when they are following the footsteps of baba they are not getting the results what they like. They are forgetting the base principle that baba knows more about us rather than what we know about us.

So we can conclude that baba really likes those who follow him with faith and patience and ask for what he wanted to give. Really one is blessed who can understand this and implement in their life.
