Ep. 20 : Insights into the Lives of Baba's Most Intimate Devotees - a podcast by Sai Babas Devotee Speaks

In this important talk, we cover some of the common aspects of the lives of Baba's most intimate Devotees that we have been blessed to meet. Baba comes first, before anything else, in their lives. This shows in their Bhav and their love, which actually transmits to other devotees whose own devotion for Baba gets reinforced to a great extent.

We take the examples of the lives of Aai, Hema Ma, and a few other devotees (who we have not yet filmed in order to safeguard their privacy), who are in a deep state of communion with Baba throughout. Interacting with them has given us some insights into Baba's love for his children and how He cares for their welfare to the minutest detail.

Baba does not expect His devotees to do anything for Him. At the time of this Covid-19 Pandemic, all He says is that if one does their duties and simply remembers Him, He is pleased. He does not ask for any formal worship or any particular sadhana at a time where many householders are now burdened with more responsibilities. Baba says He is pleased when families come together, eat together, discharge their duties with a sense of joy, and maintain a sense of peace and harmony at home which is very dear to Him.

In this talk we cover some facets of the quotidian lives of these blessed devotees which encompass their own spiritual sadhanas, their routines, and the sacred shrines of worship they have in their homes, with the intent that listeners can take from this whatever resonates with them and apply it to their own lives.

Some of the topics covered in this talk are:

• How we meet some of the Intimate Devotees and identify them


• The sheer Overwhelming Love for Baba they radiate


• How Bhav, Intent, and Love surpass everything else


• The commitment to discipline and a routine


• Practising Devotion despite a busy work life and responsibilities with no excuses


• How one's Devotion is tested, only the real devotees endure it


• The Lives of intimate devotees is NOT a bed of roses


• You take one step to Baba, Baba takes ten steps towards you


• Offering food to Baba as a practice and its deep significance


• Not doing anything without Baba’s consent


• Insights into the Sacred Shines of Intimate Devotees
