Guru Charanam  

Today, Swami gave a piece of paper. On it was written:

Om Sri Sai Ram

My most humble salutation to the Mother of the Universe.

Om Sri Sai Jai Jai Sai

Jay Jay Ram Krishna Hari

Jai Jai Ram

Jai Jai Sai

Jai Jai Ram Krishna Hari

Maanasa Bhajare Guru Charanam

Dustara Bhava Sagara Taranam

Meaning: Meditate in your mind on the lotus feet of your guru.

This alone can take you across the ocean of birth and death



This is what was written on the paper. To left of the song was a lotus with heart-

shaped leaves and on the right was a 5 pointed star. In the top point of the star was a

face with a necklace around it’s neck. It seemed to be the necklace of a woman. 

7 June 2013 Evening meditation

Vasantha : Swami, what is this You have written about the guru?

Swami : Yes, I wrote...now you write.

Vasantha : Swami, who is calling to the Universal Mother? 

Swami : All are calling. 

Vasantha : What is around the star’s nec

k?

Swami : Dhruva became a star. Your star vibration pervades the entire world. It

spreads across the entire creation. It is your Mangalya. 

Vasantha : Really? Is it real? 

End of meditation

Now let us see about this. Swami wrote this song where all are singing to me. My

star vibration goes throughout the entire world. Dhruva became the pole star due to his

penance. My penance is for world liberation. So the star vibration emanating from my

Sahasrara enters all transforming them into stars. 

This vibration enters the entire creation and all becomes God mayam. The New

Creation is Sathya Sai mayam. It is for this Swami drew my face on the Stupi star and a

Mangalya around my neck. When Swami returns, He will call me. He will then tie the

Mangalya Sutra around my neck. Only then, will the star vibration emerge from the

Stupi. 

I am the sky lotus. I have come to earth and I am greatly suffering. The heart of

this sky lotus expands as the earth. Swami’s Mangalya represents my chastity. Without

the Mangalya, the New Creation can never come. How can a child be born without

marriage? 

Swami must first come and declare who I am to the world. He must then tie the

Mangalya sutra around my neck. Only then, will the Stupi and Vishwa Brahma Garbha

Kottam begin to function. Until then, these structures remain as monuments. Swami

must come; otherwise, His Avataric task will not function. 

Manaasa Bhajare Guru Charnam, Dustara Bhava Sagara Taranam was the

first bhajan Swami composed and sang. He revealed Himself to be the Universal Guru.

Here Swami has written the meaning. In your mind, meditate on the lotus feet of your

guru. Catch hold of his feet tightly. This alone will take you across the ocean of birth and

death. 

From birth itself, I caught hold of God’s feet. I am afraid of death. Seeing a dead

body, I became afraid and ran to many saints trying to find a way to escape from this. I

cried and wailed. Finally, in 1974 I read a book about Swami called 'Sathyam Shivam

Sundaram'. After reading this, I totally surrendered to Him. In the end, after many tears

Swami gave me His padukas. I would carry them wherever I went. Everywhere, they

remained in my hands. Similarly, I carry Swami’s feet in my heart. Those feet have now

emerged as the Vishwa Brahma Garbha Kottam. 

Swami has also touched and blessed a small pair of padukas in Prasanthi

Nilayam, which I now keep near me. These feet are granting the boon of world liberation

for which I have asked. It grants Mukthi to 570 crores of jeevas. It takes all across the

ocean of birth and death. We have come here to demonstrate this for all eyes to see. Why

did Swami choose this as His first bhajan? Only when writing this did I understand. We

have come to show, prove and demonstrate this bhajan. This is the Avataric task

.

The lotus and star represent the Kundalini. The 7 chakras of Kundalini are the

lotus. When the Sahasrara opens, the star vibration comes out. All who read this must

awake! Enough roaming in maya! Enough roaming in the ocean of birth and death!

Swami has come here and grants mukthi to all. You may then ask, "What then do I have

to do?" Swami is not giving permanent liberation. You may happily live in the Jeevan

Muktha state for a thousand years. Yet, when the second half of the Kali Age arrives, you

will enter the exact same state that you are in now. You may then say, "Oh I have aged

and will only live for another 19 or 20 years." Yes, your body will die, but your qualities

and character will again enter another body. That which you collect birth after birth is

all stored in your deep impressions. This dirt follows you. 

Now awake and follow Swami’s teachings. What Swami preaches you must

practice in your life. Meditate on any name or form of God. Whichever form or name

you worship, Swami is ready to help. So now awake!

During bhajan, I asked Swami

that a flower must fall from His

picture as proof for the Mangalya.

When I was showing arathi a flower

fell from the Shiva Shakthi picture

on to the Om Sri Sai Vasantha

Saiyee Saiya Namaha mantra

padukas. Swami has given the

correct proof. Later, when I showed

everyone my diary and what Swami

had said, another flower fell. This

time it was from Swami’s white robe

birthday picture. It is a proof

showing Swami will come again and

tie the Mangalya. The flower falling

from the Shiva Shakthi picture

indicates the union of Shiva and

Shakthi. 

  Jai Sai Ram
