Useless Spiritual Practices

Friday, November 10, 2006

SaibabaAm a devotee of Saibaba and i used to go to bhajan whenever i have time.Particularly every sunday,bhajan will be carried out by youths from that center.I never miss that bhajan on sunday.

Last sunday since i went a bit late,the hall was tightly packed with devotees and i somehow managed to sit at the last row.Infront of me a lady.......i think she maybe around 50 was sitting.As the bhajan was proceeding,a kid(around 4 or 5 years) was stubborn to get something out of her mom's purse.Suddenly child started crying and she fell on that old lady's arms.That old lady turned back and stared at the child,then lady continued to sing bhajans.

Once again the child cried and her hand slightly touched the lady's arms.Everyone around the child tried to calm down her and made her laugh.This lady turned back and shouted at the child's mom like hell.She roared as though someone has stolen her necklace.she shouted "Dont come to bhajans taking all tehse kids with you.....see this kid is crying and hitting me with her hands,jus go and sit in some other place.....dont irritate me any more"

I was much disgusted on the lady's behaviour.She being a 50 year old lady doesn't even have the patience for what a 5 year old child did........i dont understand for what these people are attending bhajan to promote themselves spiritually.They dont have patience or even love towards other human beings.we cannot think that by merely offering worship in a temple, we have earned the grace of God. If we worship God,but fail to show love toward people around us then whats the use of all these prayers and spiritual practices like bhajans,meditation etc.

There are many books of Saibaba which tells, "Do not delude yourselves that by merely offering worship in a temple, you have earned the grace of God. If you worship God, but harass the people around you, will you earn the Divine grace? Your prayers earn a plus for you in your spiritual balance sheet. By causing harm to people you earn a minus. The result of this plus and minus is zero."

Dont these people know about the teachings of Baba.I dont know for what stupidity are these people calling themselves to be followers of HOLY MAN SAIBABA.

Well the people never cease to surprise me. Well I have had many such incidents. Too many to tell. But the bottom line is people will continue to have absurd beliefs no matter how many sai baba or buddha come down to earth.
