WHO IS SAI ? --- (In the words of Sai) ............. Part 2

[Ashok]

The optical sense cannot visualise truth. It gives only false and fogged information. For example, there are many who observe my actions and start declaring that my nature is such and such. They are unable to gauge the sanctity, the majesty and the internal reality that is Me. The power of Sai is limitless; it manifests for ever. All forms of 'power' are resident in this Sai palm.

But those who profess to have understood me, the scholars, the yogis, the pundits, the jnanis, all of them are aware only of the least important the casual external manifestations of an infinitesimal part of that power, namely, the 'miracles'! They have not desired to contact the source of all power and all wisdom, that is available here at Brindavan. They are satisfied when they secure a chance to exhibit their book learning and parade their scholarship in vedic lore, not realising that the person from whom the Vedas emanated is in the midst, for their sake. They even ask, in their pride, for a few more chances!

This has been the case, in all ages. People may be very near (physically) to the avatar, but, they live out their lives unaware of their fortune; the exaggerate the role of miracles, which are as trivial, when compared to my glory and majesty, as a mosquito is in size and strength to the elephant upon which it squats. Therefore, when you speak about these 'miracles', I laugh withing Myself out of pity, that you allow yourself so easily to lose the precious awareness of My reality.

My power is immeasureable; My truth is inexplicable, unfathomable, I am announcing this about Me, for, the need has arisen. But, what I am doing now is only the gift of a 'Visiting Card'!. Let me tell you that emphatic declaration of Truth by Avatars were made so clearly and so unmistakably only by Krishna. In spite of the declaration, you will notice in the career of the same Krishna that He underwent defeat in His efforts and endeavours, on a few occasion; you must also note that those defeats too were part of the drama which he had planned and which He Himself directed. For example, when many Kings pleaded with Him to avert the war with the Kauravas, He confessed that His Mission to the Kaurava Court for ensuring peace had 'failed'! But, He had not willed that it should succeed! He had decided that war would be waged! His Mission was intended to publish the greed and iniquity of the kauravas and to condemn them before the whole world.
