Who is Sai Baba of Shirdi
Long time ago, at the beginning of eighteenth century a young bearded man with sparkling eyes took shelter in a mosque, in Shirdi Village (of Maharshtra State, In India) . Nobody knew from where this stranger had come who hardly spoke a word and stayed there.




This anonymity lent a strange facet to his interaction with the people who came to him for guidance. To the Hindus he was an orthodox Brahmin, with a sacred fire, enjoining the worship of many gods and the devout study of various Hindu scriptures. He lived in a mosque but always referred to it as "Dwarkamay!" (Lord Krishna's birth place is Dwaraka). To the Moslems he was a fakir living in a mosque observing the disciplines of Islam, uttering "Allah Malik" (God is the master) guiding Muslim seekers along the lines c)f their own religion. To the Parsis he was the sacred rire worshipper. His life was a living manifestation c)f the Sermon of the Christ and of the Eight-fold path of the Buddha.

Because they see in him what they're not seeing in themselves. Their human conditioning polarizes their consciousness and makes them unaware of who they really Are -- so they put Sai Baba and other 'spiritual masters' on a pedestal. When in reality there is no pedestal and even God is not on a pedestal. (Love your neighbor as your self - God is our self just as our neighbor is. Not an emotionally stunted 3 old boy who needs to be coddled and bowed down to. Gurus are products of conditioning, not clear expressions of our Self)
