Shree Sai Baba is a certain conviction in the minds of each and everyone of his devotees. the experiences of devotees in all walks of life, super-physical experiences.

Shri Sai Baba did not give any sermons, nor did he write any spiritual thesis, though his scholarship was profound and he could surpass the knowledge of the many pandits and moulanas who often came to him for elucidation of the texts. The source of Sai Baba’s mastery over the scriptures of all religions was as unfathomable as his entire personality was enigmatic.

“I am the bond slave of my devotees. I love devotion. If one ever dwells on me in his mind and will not even taste food before offering it to me, I become his slave -- so also if he hungers and thirsts after me and treats all else as unimportant.” Such was the illuminating language in which the sage gave predominance to the function of love. Shri Sai Baba’s followers, therefore, have so to elevate their understanding as will enable them to realize the living beauty of love, its divine energies, its health-giving properties, its power to demonstrate immortality.

When people quarreled and fought, Baba’s favorite method of chiding them was asking them a counter question, “Who is quarreling with whom”, he asked, “Just think of that.” What the Master wished to emphasize was that if we see God in every place and in everyone, then we would have no scope left for hatred and dissension. “Therefore, let none hate and let none forget that I, you and all the world are parts of the Lord,” said Baba.

The best way of giving effect to this process of knowing oneself was, according to Sai Baba, through a complete surrender to God. Ideas of what God is varies widely. Those who believe in a personal deities embodied in the form of a Guru, for instance, can get a tremendous push forward in the evolution of their spiritual growth. Surely, to be able to call upon a power like this which is the master of all material conditions is to have that “pearl of great price”, for which we may well work, watch and pray.
