FUNERAL
& MARRIAGE - Same Day
My
body is not well. Dots have again appeared on my scalp and my hair is falling
out.
What should we do? Which doctor shall we consult? Today Swami gave
a bouquet
of
five lily flowers, which had five leaves. He also gave a box of turmeric, yet
inside was
sandal
powder. In the afternoon, I read the June issue of Sanathana Sarathi. Here many
devotees have written about their experiences. After reading, I began to cry and cry,
"Why
don't I have such experiences?" All consoled me.
Noon
meditation
Swami : Why
are you crying in this way?
Vasantha : I do
not have such experiences. How much they have enjoyed.
Swami : None has had your experience. Theirs was only an outer experience.
Yours
is within.
Vasantha : Swami, I have no experience. What is the use in writing? You have also
not
come.
Swami : Sure
I will come.
Vasantha : Swami
we all discussed whether we should call the dentist or ENT doctor.
Swami : No.
No doctor. All will be okay.
Vasantha : Should
we go see Dr. Vijay Kumar or Dr. Ramaswami?
Swami :
Both
are the same. Take the medicine that they prescribe.
Vasantha : Will You write
which doctor or medicine? Till You come, write
something...
a remedy for the difficulties in my body. What shall I do with
the
sandal powder?
Swami : At
night, apply it on your body. Do the same during the day
.

Vasantha : Swami
what are the lily flowers?
Swami : The
entire Sathya Yuga is only our marriage.
Vasantha : Now
I understand Swami.
End of meditation
Let us see about this. Inside the box of turmeric
was sandal powder,
which was
very
fragrant. How did this box appear in the office? Swami told to apply it on my
body.
Many
doctors have come to see me, yet none could diagnose or cure my disease though
their medicine
did provide some relief. We then searched
the internet to gather more
information
about these lily flowers. Below are few excerpts we found:
The common question asked by many after seeing a calla lily as a
wedding flower and even funeral flower is, what does the cala lily
symbolize? The Christian Easter service uses the cala lily as a symbol of
resurrection. The cone-like flowers
are thought to symbolize trumpets
heralding
Christ's victory over death. This flower also symbolizes the Virgin
Mary,
her purity, holiness and faith. Lilies are strong symbols of rebirth at
spring, youth and innocence. The white flower symbolizes cleanliness,
rectitude and virginity. Thus, these lilies symbolize the brilliance of truth
and holiness.
The lilies are also symbolic
of elegance and sophistication.
They are the traditional symbols of marriage.
They are also used to mark
th
|
the 6 wedding anniversary. The classic white
calla lily meaning stands for
|
purity
of thought and the eloquence of heavenly bliss.
This
is what we read. In this case, the lilies do not symbolize the resurrection of
Jesus, but that of Swami. Swami left His body and is now coming in a new body.
Through my faith, purity and holiness
He will return. My body is already
a virgin.
Swami said after the third child was born my virginity
returned. In this way, I have
retained
my youth and innocence. The lilies represent my righteousness, cleanliness and
effulgence of truth. This effulgence of truth blossoms
in my thousand petaled lotus
sahasrara.
The
flower indicates natural beauty. Man’s natural beauty is the Atma. All should
realize their own Atmic beauty. This is real beauty. This is my thirst. This flower is
thth
|
symbolic of the 6 anniversary of marriage. Yet Swami is giving it to me for our 60
|
anniversary.
Swami married me at the age of 16, but only revealed this truth in front of
the world at the age of 76. What I experience with Swami in Swarga is heavenly bliss,
which I write with thoughts of purity and eloquence. Swami tells and I write. These
feelings
go outside through the Stupi and become star vibrations entering all. Bhagavan
Sathya
Sai’s Sathyam and Vasantha’s Prema come together and make all into jnanis.
All
marriages that will take place will be through our feelings alone. All men will
have
Swami’s feelings and every woman my feelings. So each marriage is for us. This
is
Swami’s Avataric
task. At the age of 16, my marriage took place. I happily lived for 6
th
years without
knowing whom I had married. We then separated. Now on our 60
|
2
anniversary, we will come together. Through
this, the Kali is removed
and the Sathya
Yuga
dawns.
This
lily is also a flower used at funerals. It is the death of Kali Yuga, the death
of
evil qualities. It is the death of ignorance. Now, comes the funeral of death. It is the
death of Kali Yuga and the marriage of Sathya Yuga. It is a strange
event. In one day,
Kali Yuga dies and the marriage
of Sathya Yuga takes place. Only for God, does this
flower
function in both ways. The day Swami and I meet will be Sathya Yuga's marriage.
From that day, the Stupi and Vishwa Brahma Garbha Kottam will begin to function.
How
God’s omniscience reveals to this extent in everything! Through our life, Swami
is
showing how this flower functions in both ways. It is used for opposite occasions:
marriage and funerals. However,
both have not happened in anyone’s life at the same
time.
Swami shows this through our life.

June 2013
I always pray to Swami to write
something.
At night when searching for
post,
we found a drawing at the back of
one note. Here Swami drew eyes, nose
and mouth. He then wrote Smile,
be
happy. In between Smile and be
happy,
He drew I S I. Then wrote You
are
a free bird now. Peace Love. In
between peace and love was another
I
S
I.
Next,
Swami wrote lways walk.
Under the l was written d
and e. He then drew a heart. Under this drawing, He wrote
waiting
for.

June 2013 Morning meditation
Vasantha : Swami
what is this you are writing?
Swami : Be happy, from now onwards you will have nothing. I am coming from
your
heart house down onto earth. You peacefully wait, I will come.
Vasantha : Swami
you should now come. Will you call me?
Swami : Sure,
I will call. You will come.
Vasantha : Swami
how will it be the first time we see each other?
Swami : You will sit on a cot holding My picture. I will say why now also the
picture,
I am physically here. Saying this, I will sit near you. It is this one
touch.
Two Mahashakthi’s meet, which results in a cosmic explosion. The
world will turn upside down. All the touch feeling in the world
transforms.
This is the 'big bang'. The Stupi will then begin to functio
n.

Vasantha : I understand Swami. I am waiting for that day. Swami why these 5 lily
flowers?
Swami : Through our marriage all the 5 senses, 5
pranas (vital airs), 5
karmendriyas,
5 jnanendriyas become purified.
End of meditation
Now let us see about this. Swami now says, “Your body suffering
has finished.
You are now waiting
for Me as a free bird.” From my heart house, Swami descends
walking
along the path of Prema. D and e means He descends to earth. When
He comes,
He
will call me. We will all go there. As usual, I am sitting on the Hill House
cot holding
Swami’s
picture. Swami then says, “Why the picture and sits near me.” Here comes the
end. The two Mahashakthi’s meet creating a cosmic explosion. The world flips upside
down. It is like the big bang that took place before creation.
The stupi opens and the
atoms within become star vibrations filling
the entire earth. The touch feeling of all in
the world transforms. The Kali Yuga becomes the Sathya Yuga, the evil of Kali Yuga
transforms
and good qualities spread.
The
5 lily flowers indicate the purification of the 5 senses, 5 airs, 5
karmendriyas
and
5 jnendriyas. Everywhere is Sathya, Dharma, Shanthi, Prema and Ahimsa. All good
qualities
emerge. I asked Swami what is the meaning of I S I. Swami said, "I
am not Sai,
through
your feelings I am coming as
'I without i' Vasantha." I am coming as Vasantha
without
Sai. He is coming through my feelings and telling like this. Through my
feelings,
Swami
will come again.
Jai Sai Ram
