We must also try to feed poor and helpless taking it be foremost teaching of Baba and making it our duty to follow it. Sai Baba Himself set this example on us by preparing food for villagers of Shirdi with His own hands in earthen pots. Last but the most important point which can be considered as a part of our worship is to feed poor and helpless.

A very huge collection of bhajans can be found on bhajans blog for free downloading. Sacred Text - Shri Sai Satcharitra Chapter 5, it is stated that before SaiBaba came to live in this Masjid, He lived for a long time in a place Takia, where with Ghunghru (small bells) on His legs, Sai Babadanced beautifully sang with tender love.Listening bhajans also can away you and help to get more close to Baba. So listening bhajans can be a part of your worship which does not have any limits. Bababore love for singing and dancing. Numerous bhajans are written in praise of Sai Baba and many singers have sung them. One refer to Sai Satcharitra if he wishes to find out favourite food of Sai Baba. He advised us that, before the senses, mind and intellect enjoy their objects, first He should be remembered, and if this be done, it is in a way by making anoffering to Him.Bearing this advice in mind we should offer food to Baba before eating let it be anything.It is not necessary that you serve Him with only two time meals as naivedhya, but anything can be offered provided it is offered with love and devotion, then it is sure to be accepted. Also incense sticks and dhoop sticks can be used of the same fragrance.Īgain i am reminded of an incident from Sacred Text - Shri Sai Satcharitra Chapter 24. Baba made Hemadpant a medium of wit and humour but imparted a very meaningful message to us. So perfumes can be used by us too and its fragrance can be of rose, jasmine or bakkal flowers. I therefore came to inform you here, please go there quickly and cover me with 'Bakkal' flowers."In Samadhi Mandir, perfumes are used for Abhishek of Baba's Idol. Jasmine and Bakkal flowers are also dear to Baba.Ĭhapter 42 of Sacred Text - Sai Satcharitra states, "When Babaattained Mahasamadhi, He appeared in dream of Dasganu and said, "The Masjid collapsed, all the oilmen and grocers of Shirdi teased me a lot, so I leave the place. So roses can be offered to Baba as a part of pooja. In a way we can think that Baba likes roses. This garden now adorns present Samadhi Mandir premises. If this is not possible any Sai Baba arti can be chanted provided it is done with pure hearted devotion.įlowers and fragrance were dear to Baba. Baba with His own toil and efforts made a beautiful garden in Lendibaug. Devotees who do not know marathi arti can learn if they wish by listening the audio. Along with it Ghalin Lontangan hymn can also be recited. The original arti composed by Sai devotee Madhav Adkar can be recited. We can apply sandalwood paste to Baba's idol and that can be considered as our worship. We can devotedly do Abhishek to Baba's Idol and with plain water and then with rose water (gulab-jal) which is readily available. Sai Baba can be worshiped in the form of His Idol. In Sacred Text - Shri Sai Satcharitra Chapter 28 we have read about Megha's worship to Baba on Makar Sankranti day by giving bath of Ganges water.This can be followed even today. (b) Doing Abhishek (Holy Bath) and Applying Sandalwood Paste : So if Dhoop sticks are lighted on Thursday and Friday evenings it may please Sai Baba. Dhoop stick can be avoided if one wishes.Īccording to Sacred Text - Shri Sai Satcharitra Chapter 4 "It isbelieved, that he who burns incense there, on Thursday and Friday evenings will, by God’s grace, be happy". Alongwith lighting lamps, one can prefer to light incense sticks or dhoop sticks too. If at all it is not possible to light lamp in evening you can opt for morning only. Lightning lamp in morning and evening is sufficient. It makes one feel presence of God or Guru. Lighting lamp can be considered as living image of God. Thus there are no hard and fast rules in any worship of Sai Baba and we can worship, pray as we please. But to please His devotees, He allowed them to worship in any way they wished to. Baba has never tied us in clutches of formal worship.
