Dear Brothers and Sisters,
Sai Ram!
We know that our beloved Swami lives in our hearts. Regardless of the chaos
in the world and the tumult that assails us from time to time, He is always
there. He is always enlightening us, loving us, fulfilling whatever each of us
might need to realize our Divine Selves.
At this moment, there is a new challenge. Newspapers have been making
unwarranted allegations against the Sri Sathya Sai Central Trust of India. In
so doing they have assailed the Great Works, The Divine Works, accomplished by
our Beloved, Bhagavan Sri Sathya Sai Baba.
The Sri Sathya Sai Central Trust has been responsible for managing all of the
expenses entailed in providing free healthcare, education, water, and food for
multitudes of poor people for decades. The Trust has been responsible for
managing the maintenance of the ashram for the accommodation of multitudes of
spiritual pilgrims for decades. This is true and evident for all to see.
These Great Works have been recognized and lauded repeatedly over the years by
administrations of political leaders, supreme court justices, heads of state
governing all of India, including the current leaders of India. This is true
and evident for all to see.
Donations of Sai devotees from India and from all over the world have sponsored
these remarkable humanitarian efforts without any solicitation whatsoever.
All who are involved in the management of these great works are devotees,
spiritual seekers. They have managed the affairs of the Sri Sathya Sai Central
Trust effectively and transparently. This also is true and evident for all to
see.
Is it possible that the newspaper reporters have more knowledge and greater
wisdom than the men who have led their country for so many years? No, it is
not possible! What then is the basis for the outrageous allegations and
misinterpretations being perpetrated so irresponsibly?
Let us all recognize with respect, gratitude, and Sai Love the men who have
managed the Sri Sathya Sai Central Trust. They were selected by Swami,
Himself. They have remained close by His Side for decades living austerely as
His devotees and performing their duties faithfully and effectively. They are
resolved to continue their management of the Sri Sathya Sai Institutions in
India and Prasanthi Nilayam in the same exemplary manner in which they were run
under the Divine Guidance of our Beloved Swami.
Swami’s Divine Guidance will always be accessible to everyone. We have merely
to seek and we will find.
Let us all pray that Swami’s Love and Inner Guidance will enable all of us to
rise above these mundane problems and not be distracted from our spiritual
quest.
Lovingly in the Service of Sai,
Michael Goldstein
