For everything else related to Shri Shirdi Sai baba , go to http://debu7366.blogspot.com/

Baba always said that "Sabkamalikek" which literally means that "God is One" but very few of us put this concept into practise..It does not matter whether you say Ram or Shyam, Jesus or Waheguru , Allah or Malik , Sai or Narayan--No matter what you know him as-God is God and people who confuse themselves by saying My God is greater than Your Lord simply choose to justify their own ego instead of justifying their devotion and faith for the creator of  you , me and this entire universe..All holy books including Shri Sai Satcharitra and the Shri Bhagavad Gita teach us the hidden secrets to lead a life of dharma and good karma. And the one holy book that has helped me in my tough times is the chapter of Gita Saar in Shri Bhagavad Gita..So on this journey to move one step closer to our dearest Sadguru-Lets start reading the Bhagavad Gita together.. Along with my daily messages related to Baba, I will be posting the most simplified version of the Bhagavad Gita which will have a lot of stories along with the verses which are translated in easy to understand english and an audio version of chapter by chapter in Hindi...
These chapters can also be forwarded to your children and grand children cos it is in a very simple language and in an interesting story form.
May Shri Shirdi Saibaba and Godess Saraswati help us all to understand the hidden secrets which are explained in Shri Bhagavad Gita..
Sai bhakt,

THE BHAGAVAD-GITA
For Children and Beginners

INTRODUCTION
Jai: Grandma, I have a hard time understanding the teachings of the Bhagavad-Gita.Would you help me?
Grandma: Of course, Jai, I will be glad to. You should know that this holy book teaches us how to live happily in the world. It is an ancient holy book of Hindu Dharma (also known as Sana tana Dharma or Hinduism), but it can be understood and followed by people of any faith. The Gita has eighteen (18) chapters and a total of only 700 verses. Anyone can be helped by daily practice of only a few of its teachings.
The word 'Bhagavad' means God or The Supreme Lord, Bhagavan in Sanskrit 'Gita' means song. Thus The Bhagavad-Gita means the Song of God or the Sacred Song, because it was sung by Bhagavan Shri Krishna himself.

 
Here is the introduction to the Gita:
In ancient times there was a king who had two sons, Dhritarashtra and Pandu. The former was born blind; therefore, Pandu inherited the kingdom.Pandu had five sons. They were called the Pandavas. Dhritarashtra had one hundred sons. They were called the Kauravas.Duryodhana was the eldest of the Kauravas.After the death of king Pandu, his eldest son, Yudhisthira, became the lawful King. Duryodhana was very jealous.He also wanted the kingdom. The kingdom was divided into two halves between the Pandavas and the Kauravas.Duryodhana was not satisfied with his share. He wanted the entire kingdom for himself. He tried several evil plots to kill the Pandavas and take away their kingdom.Somehow he took over the entire kingdom of the Pandavas and refused to give it back without a war. All peace talks by Lord Krishna and others failed,so the big war of Mahabharata could not be avoided.
 The Pandavas didn't want to fight,but they had only two choices: fight for their right because it was their duty or run away from war and accept defeat for the sake of peace and nonviolence. Arjuna, one of the five Pandava brothers, faced this choice in the battlefield.
He had to choose between fighting the war and killing his most revered guru, who was on the other side; his very dear friends, close relatives, and many innocent warriors; or running away from the battlefield to be peaceful and nonviolent.The entire eighteen chapters of the Gita are the talk between confused Arjuna and his best friend, mentor and
cousin, Lord Krishna --- an incarnation of God --- on the battlefield of Kurukshetra
near New Delhi, India, about 5,100 years ago. This conversation was reported to the blind king, Dhritarashtra, by his charioteer, Sanjay. According to Gita, Sanjay had the boon of " Divyachakshu" i.e. being able to see from the Palace as to what was happening in the battle field.

It is recorded in the great epic, Mahabharata.All lives, human or nonhuman,are sacred, and nonviolence or Ahimsa is one of the most basic principles of Hinduism.
So when Lord Krishna advises Arjuna to get up and fight, this may confuse you about the principle of Ahimsa if you don't keep in mind the background of the war of Mahabharata.
This spiritual talk between the Supreme Lord, Krishna, and His devotee- friend, Arjuna, occurs not in a temple,a lonely forest, or on a mountain top but on a battlefield on the eve of a war..
 

Jai: This is an interesting story,Grandma. Can you tell me more?
Grandma: If you come to where I sit every evening, Jai, I will tell you the whole story, one chapter each day. Just make sure your homework is done and you have time to listen. If you agree, let's start tomorrow.

 
Quote of BABA:
If you practice this (a sense of Being or consciousness) of Existence, you will realize all pervasiveness and thus attain oneness with Me.
