Know Who He Is
Know Who He Is
Who is He that dwells
In the castles you build on the clouds,
In the varied narrative of your hopes,
In the agonies of your mind,
In the wailings of your heart?
Who is He that dwells—but, yet, is mute?
Who is He that dwells
In the surgings of your breast,
In the coils and currents of your craving,
In all Your sweet imaginings,
In the swing of joy and pain?
Who is He that dwells—and with you, swings?
Who is He that dwells
In the streams of tears you shed,
In the warm sighs that must heave,
In the listless path you tread.
In the hazy tunes you hum?
Who is He that dwells—but, does not soothe?
Who is He that dwells
In the prayerful calls you utter,
In the thoughts you mould and shatter,
In the tiresome gasps you falter,
In the frolics that you dream?
Who is He that dwells—and, listening, nods?
Who is He that dwells
As the image in your eye,
As the star of your moving step,
As the sanctum of your heart,
As accomplice in your thievery?
Who is He that dwells—and, never himself reveals?
Who is He that dwells
In the very same place as you,
In the flickering faith you feel,
In the will and wish of your mind,
In the ‘my’ and ‘mine’ of your thoughts?
Who is He that dwells— and, yet, dwells not?
Who is He that dwells
Saying He knows your mind,
Admitting He feels your attachment,
Declaring “I am Yours”
Receding, when you approach?
Who is He that dwells—but, does not speak?
Who is He that dwells
Whose native home you do not know,
Whose name you cannot recognise,
Who is in every place you know,
Who is up to any task?
Who is He that dwells—and, hides?
Who is He that dwells
As the light of the minute star,
As the form of the refreshing breeze,
As the refuge of the weak,
As the solace of all who seek?
Who is He that dwells—and, feeds the fantasy?
Who is He that dwells
Over the milk-white moonlit clouds,
Above the distant stars,
In the chariot decked with jewelled imagery,
The Glory of all the Worlds?
Who is He that dwells—and, proudly pomps?
Well! He is the Master of All;
Eternal Joy of the Soul!
The God of Everyone!
Beyond all your flights of thoughts.
This is all He; He alone Is.
Effulgent as the Moon,
Majestic as Creation
Charming as the Sky
Mighty as the Ocean
Is the Lord, the Great One.
—Baba

“He who sent me among you…
There is one point that I cannot but bring to your special notice today. At the moment when Jesus was merging in the Supreme Principle of Divinity, He communicated some news to his followers, which has been interpreted in a variety of ways by commentators and those who relish the piling of writings on writings and meanings upon meanings, until it all swells up into a huge mess. The statement itself has been manipulated and tangled into a conundrum.
The statement of Christ is simple:
“He who sent me among you will come again!” and he pointed to a Lamb.
The Lamb is merely a symbol, a sign. It stands for the Voice—Ba-Ba; the announcement was the Advent of Baba. “His Name will be Truth,” Christ declared.
Sathya means Truth.
“He will wear a robe of red, a bloodred robe.”
(Here Baba pointed to the robe He was wearing!).
“He will be short, with a crown (of hair). The Lamb is the sign and symbol of Love.”
Christ did not declare that he will come again. He said, “He who made me will come again.”
That Ba-ba is this Baba and Sai, the short, curly-hair-crowned red-robed Baba, is come.
He is not only in this Form, but, he is in every one of you, as the dweller in the Heart.
He is there, short, with a robe of the colour of the blood that fills it”
The great axioms of Bhaaratheeya culture found in the Vedas—Ishwarassarvabhuuthaanaam, Isaavaa-yamidham sarvam, Vasudhevassarvamidham–
“God is the inner Motivator of all beings. All this is enveloped in God, All this is Vaasudheva, the Divine”— are to be in every one.
This is the inner mystery of Incarnation, God incarnating in all! All are One; The One is All.
There is only one God; He is Omnipresent. There is only one religion, the Religion of Love;
there is only one caste, the Caste of Humanity; there is only one language, the Language of the Heart.”
Divine Discourse – 24-12-1972

The Universal Mantra
“Samastha Lokaah Sukhino Bhavantu”
Let all beings in all worlds be happy and peaceful…
God illumines the entire universe as the Atma Tatwa immanent in all the living beings and objects. Even though God may appear to be involved in so many activities in the world, it is only for the pleasure of His devotees. He has no desire of His own.
He has only one desire – Samastha Lokah Sukhino Bhavantu!
– Baba (Dussehra Discourse -2009)
For Bhagawan And The Brahmand…
Samastha Lokaah Sukhino Bhavantu is a chant wholesome, selfless and true…that has the welfare of each being and the establishment of Oneness as its core. It is a chant so very dear to our Lord, Who set an example for us all to emulate through His limitless selfless actions. On 31st August 2008, Bhagawan adapted Lokah Samastha into Samastha Lokah Sukhino Bhavantu….so as to enable us to awaken, be aware and envelope not only our lokaah or planet with love and goodwill, but to extend and emit kindred feelings such that it includes and embraces all embodied or disembodied beings, upon all the planets the cosmos through…the basis being love for every atom of creation.

AHAM
The laws of heaven were born
Of consciousness set on fire,
From this came the stillness of the night,
And from this also the ocean with its waves.

Prasanthi Mandir – The Temple of God
Sanctum Sanctorum
Inauguration Day – 23rd November 1950 on Swami’s 25th Birthday
One day, Baba told Lakshmaiah, pointing to the hillocks south of the village,
The Sai Pravesh (the advent of Sai) will transform that region into Prasanthi Pradesh (a region of highest peace). There will rise a bhavan (mansion)! Lakhs of people from all over India, why only India, from all over the world, will come and wait there for Sai darshan (sight of Sai)!
Before
After
Lakshmaiah expressed his doubt. Baba asserted,
You will have to believe it when you have to stand where we are now, trying to catch a glimpse of me, standing on the porch of that bhavan.

The Power of Prayer
People of different faiths come together to share their way of prayer. “Pray for the welfare of all. The power of prayer is incalculable. Everyone should pray everyday for the welfare and happiness of all people everywhere. This is true spirituality” – Sathya Sai Baba
