Shri Sai Satcharitra-Chapter 38-Part VI
Continued From The Fifth Part
Kala (hodge-podge)
To revert to the distribution of the naivedya. - After the arati was over and after Shirdi Saibaba sent away all the people with Udi and blessings, He went inside and sat with his back to the Nimbar for meals, with two rows of the Bhaktas, one on each side. The Bhaktas who brought naivedya thrust inside their dishes containing a variety of food such as Puris, Mande, Polis, Basundi, Sanza, fine rice etc., and kept waiting outside for prasad consecrated by Baba. All the foods were mixed in a hotch-potch and placed before Baba. He offered it all to God and consecrated it. Then portions of the same were given to the persons waiting outside and the rest was served to the inner party with Baba at the centre.
Sai
Ram.
Baba
was
indicating
that
we
need
to
go
beyond
the
duality
of
taste,
smell,
appearance
etc.
just
as
all
water
drops
emerge
from
the
sea
and
fall
back
in
to
the
sea.
To
a
query
from
Sri
Bapusaheb
Jog,
Sai
tells
him
that
in
due
course
of
time,
he
will
give
up
his
lust
and
sense
of
taste
and
will
be
blessed
by
Him.
See
Chapter
43
and
44,
Jog's
Sanyas.
Sai
Ram.
The Bhaktas sitting in two rows then dined to their hearts' content. Baba asked Shama and Nanasaheb Nimonkar daily to serve the consecrated food to all the persons sitting inside and look to their individual needs and comforts. This they did very carefully and willingly. Every morsel of the food thus partaken gave them nutrition and satisfaction. Such sweet, lovely and consecrated food it was! Ever auspicious and ever holy!
Cup of Butter-Milk
Once Hemadpant had eaten his full in this company, when Baba offered him a cup of butter-milk. Its white appearance pleased him, but he was afraid that there was no space inside for it. He, however, took a sip which proved very tasty. Seeing his faltering attitude, Baba said - "Drink it all, you won't get any such opportunity hereafter." He drank it off then, but found that Baba's words were prophetic, for He passed away soon.
Now, readers, we have certainly to thank Hemadpant. He drank the cup of butter-milk, but has supplied us with sufficient quantity of nectar in the form of Baba's Leelas. Let us drink cups and cups of this nectar and be satisfied and happy.
Sai
Ram.
And
Sai
is
making
this
servant
of
His
to
add
a
little
salt
and
sugar
to
the
buttermilk
to
make
it
tastier
so
that
we
can
enjoy
the
same
better!
I
bow
to
Sai.
Bow
to
Shri
Sai
-
Peace
be
to
all
