Swami poured water in Kasturi's mouth. Who will pour water into Swami's mouth?



Kasturi recognized the meaning: "Swami is pouring water into my mouth. So, my work on this earth is completed." Swami came out and said to the people there, "Get everything ready for the cremation." They said, "He is fine - still alive - isn't he, Swami?" Swami said, "
Why should you consider that? Get everything ready!
" Just as Swami reached the Mandir, the news came that Kasturi had left his body."

Such a neat take-off! No problem at all. Why? It is the end that concludes the kind of life that we led till then; the end of life speaks of the quality of life that we led till that moment. So Kasturi’s so grand, Swami said.

Observation
What an apotheosis!

Remember Sai's words : "Why should you consider that? Get everything ready!"

Who will apply the same logic to Baba?

We have a proverb in Telugu language : "tana daakaa vastee gaani". A literal translation works out something like "Till it comes to one's own self".

051 Vultures on the prowl. Baba's everywhere, in India!

After the death of Sathya Sai Baba, kALESwar bAbA, I thought that the people of Anantapur District, the people of Andhra Pradesh, the people of India, and the Euro and Dollar world would have some respite.TV9 Channel had reported sometime back that bAlaSAi bAba of kurnool had lost the craze people had for him. I believe, it is the same TV9 which has reported a few months back, that aghOri bAbA was building a large premises for his activities of 'tantra' and 'mantra' and that some VIPs were patronising him. I heard that some 200 white Nationals have started falling at his feat. Death of Sathya Sai Baba seems to have left a vacuum in Anantapur District, which the winds from all the four sides are trying to fill and make a fast buck from it. I wanted to write something about aghori, but I could not take it up because I was busy searching for rAvaNa's lanka in jhArkhand, West Orissa, and the sAtnA District of madhya pradEsh. If you are interested in rAvaNA's l...

Shri P. Rao has left a new comment on the post "We need a dozen Sherlock Holmes": Please permit me to say the following. The "Sai Baba" concept is of muslim origin in the sufi saint category. Whatever the religious and spiritual implications of Sri Satya Sai Baba (SSSB), he did achieve the glory of a Moghal king that ruled India and lived the life of a Paadusha (Badshah). Imagine stashing 11 crores of loose cash in the office room, along with 100 kg gold. By some accounts his personal conduct over the years was no less indulgent. In a way he did restore the glory of moghal kings or close to home their once representative Nizam. Placed in a bank the 15 crores of wealth could be earning about one crore rupees in interest per year. This disclosed wealth seems to be only the tip of the iceberg. It is interesting to note that there is very little public outrage at these findings. Could some one address the issue if people really donate this kind of money voluntaril...

049 We now need 24 Sherlock Holmes

Readers may please recollect that at my blogpost No. #038 here, I wrote that we need a dozen Sherlock Holmes to investigate into the affairs at Puttaparthi. Now, some snakes have come out of the molehills at penugonDa, the seat of Late kALESwar's dwelling (I cannot call it hermitage, because hermitages are supposed to be in thatched huts and not in mansions and palaces). While the brother's wife of Late kALEshwar said that there were suspicious circumstances in his death, kALEshwar's father said that he didn't find any suspicious circumstances in his son's death. The Officials of the Government of Andhra Pradesh claimed that they were acting as per the instructions of their superiors. We do not know what the instructions of their superiors were. Since top politicians and officials have attended the funeral of Late kALEShwar, we can presume that the Trust Officials of kALEShwar's Ashram might, definitely have approached them for help. ybrao-a-donkey's p...
