Shri Sai Sat Charitra - Chapter 12 - Part V ...Contd
"Then lo! All of a sudden, he saw no Baba on the seat, but saw his late Guru Gholap Swami there." Sai Ram. What a beautiful leela? What a wonderful way of teaching exotic spiritual lessons to ordinary souls like us? Baba's cryptic prophecy that He would don saffron colored robes that day was fulfilled! "Ultimately, setting aside all doubts, he went up, fell at his Guru's feet and then getting up stood there with folded hands."
Sai Ram. Whenever I read this story it brings tears to my eyes. Tears of sorrow that we too are struck in the mire of ignorance because of our ego. And tears of joy that like Moolay Shastri we too will be blessed with the darshan of our ishta God and Guru when we worship Sai, who is one with all Gods and Gurus. Though Moolay Shastri studied the Six Shastras, he probably did not study Brahma Vidya, the knowledge that destroys the ego.
In fact all worldly knowledge is classified as Avidya, the ignorance. Only that knowledge, which snaps the bondage of ignorance that keeps us tied to the wheel of karma through the seeds of desires, is truly called Vidya.
Baba took pity on Moolay Shastri (especially since he was already a good disciple of a great guru Gholap Swami) and thereby on similar ignorant folk like us by showing Moolay shastri - the Oneness of the Moolam i.e. root. (Moolay probably is derived from Moola, which in Sanskrit stands for Root), as the root of all is the Para Brahman, and the root of all this visible Samsara is Maya. Moolay Shastri was indeed fortunate. Being a Guruputra of a great Guru, and being a staunch follower of Dharma, he was rewarded by this great vision.
Sai Ram. We too are fortunate in that we are firmly holding on to Sai's lotus feet to cross the Ocean of Samsar. So tears of sorrow will be converted to tears of joy if we catch hold of Sai's feet firmly and like Moolay Shastri prostrate at Sai's feet.
Sai Ram. We have seen how Mulay Sastri, a great devotee of a Sadguru and a follower of His Varnashrama Dharma was blessed by Baba through the vision of his Guru, albeit with a gentle message to him that God is above all Varnas and Gunas. Let us see how a great devotee of Ram was blessed by Baba and received spiritual instructions from Him.
