If you deserve Koh-i-Noor Diamond, you will get it

Sairam friends,

2014 Deepavali was good. I must say really good in terms of the smoke due to crackers which used to fill the sky. Compared to previous years, this year I did not see thick mass of smoke while traveling back from temple at night. I was concerned about it since my Mom had problems in breathing and gradually by Sai grace she’s getting better now.

I woke up only at 7.A.M. I was remembering the days when my sister and myself as kids used to wake up at 4 during Diwali, wear new dress and had fun. I stopped buying crackers almost 10 years back. This year, every day seems to be a normal day for me. I don’t see anything special about Diwali and the word “Celebration” just means doing the pooja we usually do at home and going to Temple.

If you live abroad, you might have all fun and also follow some traditions of our festival but only if you are in India, you will see its reality. I don’t know what “Diwali” actually means to my Sister’s daughter. So I sent few photos I took in temple to show her.

Two of my friends at work told me their uncle has brought lots of  Crackers for them. So I was chatting in my friends group that ” I got News tips that these two guys were wearing Helmet to burst crackers as they were scared. Kids in their area thought that some Alien has come down to celebrate Diwali and ran away”. He he…

I think that teasing everyone might not always end up well but as of now, I continue to remain what I am. Another thing that I am really thinking about is why I get too happy and exited at times? I live in either of the emotional state – Either too happy or too sad. Being devoted to Saibaba, I am supposed to maintain a neutral state and must not get angry or too exited or too depressed. I am yet to work on my mind.

I went to Saibaba temple in my hometown and enjoyed the lamps the devotees lit infront of the temple. It was truly beautiful.

My friend wanted me to buy some sweets and give it to him as he distributes it to devotees after Shej Aarti. So I bought some sweets and gave it. Then, I came home, had dinner and tried to do something useful. I did not do anything worthy and slept off.

I wasn’t able to sleep as I hear some voices. I woke up and told Saibaba, “I am scared of such voices. If you want to tell something to me, say it with a dream”.

I applied Udi and slept again.

Got a very beautiful dream like this..

Its like someone telling me “If you deserve Koh-i-Noor Diamond, you will get it back”.

It was 1.45 at night. I woke up opened the big version of Sai Satcharitra book which I was hugging and sleeping. I opened a page and it landed on the following words

“If you read this book, you will be filled with all auspiciousness in life”.

To me, Sai is my Koh-i-Noor diamond and he is always living in my heart.

We all had read about Koh-i-Noor in school. I read about it in Wikipedia now before I start to write this article. May be the Britishers must return our treasure to us.

The past 2 days, I also saw 2-4 people at work in dream but I am not going to say that to my friends. They already tease me saying I often get dreams. So decided not to tell about my dreams to anyone. Its too strange. My dreams and Myself..he he. I just know Saibaba is guiding me and protecting me.

OK friends, Its too late now.

Tata,

Venkat

I wish to read Sai Satcharitra by Sai grace.
