physical body, he continues to embody the principle of direct communication with every person.
Both during the life of Sathya Sai Baba, and now, unfortunately, there are quite a lot of people who claim they allegedly speak on behalf of Sathya Sai Baba. I think we all need to be careful and not fall for the tricks of rogues.
Even during his lifetime, Sathya Sai Baba said many times that he establishes personal relationships with each person and communicates with each one, exclusively and personally. It is hard to believe, because there were millions of devotees around Sathya Sai Baba, and not everyone could communicate with him personally.
The question arose: how is it possible for Sathya Sai Baba to communicate directly with millions of people at the same time? Is it even possible? To communicate directly with Sathya Sai Baba it’s not necessary to talk to him physically. If necessary, Sathya Sai Baba can come to you in a dream and give you the necessary instructions. If necessary, he can even physically materialize in front of you in any part of the world. Most importantly, you can feel the presence of Sathya Sai Baba in your heart and hear his voice as an inner intuitive feeling.
Sathya Sai Baba is absolute consciousness and eternal spirit, therefore, he is present everywhere, and above all in your spiritual heart. Intuitive sensation and inner voice are the most accurate and reliable channel of direct communication with Sathya Sai Baba. The heart always speaks the truth. The only obstacle is a lack of self-confidence. You need to believe in yourself and your personal connection with God.
The principle of direct communication is not just a beautiful statement, it manifests itself in everyday life. Sathya Sai Baba, in the most wonderful way, made it clear about his invisible presence in the life of absolutely everyone. He often made it clear that he was aware of all the events that were taking place, and also knew, in detail, all the hidden thoughts and feelings of each person.
Of course, this does not mean that you should not take good advice from more experienced people who can help you gain a deeper understanding of complex philosophical teachings or understand the practices of meditation, mantra, and yoga. Let's assume that you are already quite experienced in meditation and know a lot about various philosophical teachings, however, it can be assumed that there is someone more experienced than you.
It is wise to be open to communication and helpful advice from those who know more. All human life is an endless process of self-education and improvement.
Sathya Sai Baba often said that one of the important methods on the spiritual path is “satsang,” which in Sanskrit means spiritual communication, during which people exchange opinions or talk about their mystical experiences.
54. If you see Sathya Sai Baba in your dreams, then it can only be him and no one else
Another possible way of direct and personal communication with Sathya Sai Baba is through dreams. In all world religions, special attention is paid to mystical dreams. There are practices of mystical dreams in the Vedic tradition, Christianity, and Buddhism. In India and Tibet, these techniques are called "dream yoga."
What is the peculiarity of the mystical experience that we get in dreams, and how does it differ from meditation? First of all, it can be said that the experience of mystical dreams is a very reliable source of information. The reliability of the information that we receive in a dream is extremely high. In a dream, the ego temporarily subsides and the soul plunges into the ocean where pure information flows.
Sathya Sai Baba said many times: "If you see me in your dreams, then it can only be me." During interviews, he quite often emphasized that the world of dreams is a very serious channel for direct communication with him personally. I think these are very important words of Sathya Sai Baba, because quite often people have doubts about the authenticity of mystical dreams.
If you had a dream where Sathya Sai Baba was present, how can you be sure that it is really Sathya Sai Baba, or maybe it's just an illusion? When a person thinks about Sathya Sai Baba all day long, reads Sathya Sai Baba's books and watches his videos all day long, then from the point of view of science, it is quite natural that such a person can see Sathya Sai Baba in a dream. But in the situation with Sathya Sai Baba, this principle does not work.
If Sathya Sai Baba comes to you in a dream, then it can only be him. Sathya Sai Baba is a great mystic who has the ability to consciously come into the dream of any person.
Working with dreams plays a huge role in many traditions, including Tantra and Buddhism. Since ancient times, great attention has been paid to working with dreams, and it was so serious that over time this system of practices began to be called "dream yoga."
Working with dream plots allows you to simulate events that occur in reality. A dream is a door through which we pass into the depths of our subconscious, penetrate into the subtle worlds, and get the opportunity to touch amazing flows of information.
55. In a dream Sathya Sai Baba showed me the Life-Giving Cross
There were times in my life when I wore all sorts of amulets around my neck. Sometimes they were Vedic amulets, such as the Om mantra symbol or the trident of Lord Shiva, and sometimes I wore a beautiful Buddhist vajra around my neck.
Once Sathya Sai Baba came to me in a dream and showed me a pectoral Orthodox silver cross, which lay in his palm. After a pause, he said, “you change various amulets all the time, they are all very good.” After a short pause he added, “put on this cross, God lives in the center of this cross!” I woke up. Thinking about this dream, I felt that I must definitely find the very cross that
