Svyatoslav Dubyanskiy – Prema Sai Baba. The Mystery of God. Part One (страница 18)
Prema Sai Baba's father's name is Mahesh, and he comes from the village of Doddamallur. Every Hindu family has a "main temple of the family", which family members regularly visit for many generations. The main temple of the Mahesh family (Prema Sai's father) is located near the city of Mysore.
The whole family makes a pilgrimage to this temple of Lord Shiva several times a year. I was lucky enough to visit this temple several times with Prema Sai Baba and his parents. Prema Sai Baba's mother's name is Teja Mani, she was born and raised in the village of Bewur, also in the state of Karnataka.
The Prema Sai Baba boy has been hosting visitors and followers in his home since the age of two and a half. Indian followers most often come for a couple of hours to see the divine child and receive blessings.
However, Russian devotees, and devotees from other countries, are more likely to come for a couple of weeks. There is no ashram yet, so there is no program on a daily basis. Sometimes devotees come to the house, or those who want to inquire. Prema Sai Baba’s Parents hospitably accepts everyone, regardless of the worldview of their visitors.
Big holidays are organized several times a year: Shivaratri (end of winter — beginning of spring), Prema Sai Baba's birthday (June 28), Guru Purnima (beginning or middle of July), Sathya Sai Baba's birthday (November 23). These festivals are organized by Jaya Lakshmi Amma, sometimes in Bangalore and sometimes in Doddamallur.
It is Jaya Lakshmi Amma who organizes all the rituals and feeding of the participants during the festivals, and Prema Sai Baba is present at the holidays, blessing those who come.
34. Education of God
Starting from 2020, the era of a global reset of human civilization has come, which will lead to the emergence of a new global financial and political system, the emergence of a new cultural environment and communication, and a new spiritual space at the universal human level.
In this difficult situation of global transition, it should be remembered that the most important component is the spiritual transformation of each person. The appearance of Prema Sai Baba is primarily associated with the birth of a new divine humanity.
Due to the lockdown, from the very beginning of 2020 to the middle of 2021, the boy Prema Sai Baba, like all Indian children, was at home and did not attend school; of course, sometimes classes were online. For most children, a break in normal education can be detrimental, but this was of good use to the divine boy.
It was a unique opportunity for temporary seclusion and a period when visitors did not come to the house of the holy family. Even for Hindus, it was not easy to move around the country, which gave Prema Sai Baba time in solitude and preparation for his worldwide mission. Life was secluded and calm.
Prema Sai Baba was “found” when he was two and a half years old. This great mission was carried out by yogis under the guidance of Mata Bijay Devi and Mata Tomba Devi from the Himalayan state of Manipur.
From the age of three, visitors flocked to see him from all over the world, most of all from different parts of India and Russia. During this difficult time of lockdown, I lived in India and worked for a company that allowed me and my wife to still visit the holy family.
In May 2022, ten-year-old Prema Sai Baba transferred to a new school. Prema Sai studied at the previous school from the age of three. I visited this school several times. To be honest, I always felt unenthusiastic about this particular educational institution. Teachers taught basic knowledge and sometimes applied a system of physical punishments to students, including Prema Sai Baba who received reprimands the same as the other children.
Many times, Jaya Lakshmi Amma sent her representatives to the school to explain the unsuitability of such behavior on the part of teachers. The teachers and the rector of the old school were well aware that "this" boy was Prema Sai Baba, but they blatantly ignored the situation.
There are no such situations at his new school. This is one of the best educational institutions with good teachers and a serious program. It has a very good environment, excellent teachers and rector.
The school was very happy when they learned that the boy Prema Sai Baba would study with them. Some of the instructors are devotees of Sathya Sai Baba and enthusiastically received the good news that one of their students would be Prema Sai Baba.
Does a divine child need to go to school and get a formal education? The Avatar is inherently perfect and possesses all the knowledge in the universe, however, some aspects of formal education are still necessary. For example, Rama Avatara and Krishna were educated in many disciplines such as the Vedic philosophy, arts and sciences of the time.
Ancient texts tell us about how the divine incarnations of past ages were trained by teachers. This can be read in such scriptures as the Ramayana, the Mahabharata and the Bhagavatam.
The Prema Sai boy looks much older than his age. How to recognize divinity in a seemingly ordinary child? He plays with toys just like a normal child. Living in his house for a long time, I had the opportunity to carefully observe his behavior and some important divine manifestations.
In particular, his true divine nature manifests itself in the evenings before going to bed. It seems that before going to bed, he takes off the mask of an ordinary child and becomes himself.
It is during the evening hours that he tells us about his mission as Prema Sai Baba and talks about himself in the third person. Late in the evening, when everyone was asleep, he would sometimes talk about the significance of the three Sai Avatars.
Among the issues discussed were the future of human civilization, various levels of enlightenment, the mission of the Kalki Avatar and Mahavatar Babaji.
35. Madhusudan Sai
A very difficult element in the discussion about Prema Sai Baba is the activity of Madhusudan, who (as he claims) gained enlightenment as a result of the subtle body of Sathya Sai Baba allegedly entering and being in him (in Madhusudan).
Madhusudan was born on July 26, 1979, in central India. Some of his relatives were devotees of Sathya Sai Baba, so his parents decided to send him to study at the university founded by Sathya Sai.
From the age of 17 (1996), young Madhusudan became a student at the University at Puttaparthi, which allowed him to be in constant close contact with Sathya Sai Baba. At university, he excelled in studies, regularly receiving gold medals and diplomas as the best student in such specialties as chemistry and management.
Immediately after the death of Sathya Sai Baba in 2011, Madhusudan developed his project at the ashram in the village of Muddenahalli, Karnataka. He claims he is preparing his ashram for the next incarnation of God on Earth — Prema Sai Baba.
From the very beginning, Madhusudan stated that the subtle body of Sathya Sai Baba was not in the tomb at Puttaparthi. The subtle body of Sathya Sai allegedly left the tomb and "moved" to the ashram in Muddenahalli, where Madhusulan himself settled.
This allegedly happened in the summer of 2011, shortly after Sathya Sai Baba left his body in the spring of 2011. For several years, Madhusudan claimed that the subtle body of Sathya Sai Baba was near him. On numerous occasions we saw an empty chair on which the invisible subtle body of Sathya Sai Baba allegedly sat.
Madhusudan stands nearby and voices what he supposedly hears as telepathic messages from this subtle body. I will not comment on this situation, because everyone has the right to relate to such events in accordance with their intuitive choice.
Later, Madhusudan stated that the subtle body of Sathya Sai Baba had entered him and was now inside Madhusudan. Again, how to relate to this is the free choice of everyone.
What is the subtle body of God? How many subtle bodies does God have? Our assumptions about God are based largely on our knowledge of ourselves. According to the ancient tradition of Kriya Yoga, each person has three bodies: physical (sthula sharira), astral (sukshma sharira) and causal (karana sharira).
We see the physical body in wakefulness. The astral body is associated with energy. This body manifests itself in a dream and some types of meditation. The causal body is the body of information.
Such a structure of the inner mind of a person is classical. Adi Shankara wrote about this in his books in ancient times (in the philosophical work of Vivekachudamani), and in the 20th century, Pramahansa Yogananda wrote about this in his
Considering the structure of the inner world of man, we assume the inner structure of God is exactly the same. These assumptions are quite natural, since God created man in his own image and likeness. However, we should not forget the magnitude of God is infinitely greater than that of man.
In many ways, Madhusudan's activities are based on his alleged exclusivity. If we assume that God has only one subtle body and it was first near Madhusudan, and then entered inside him, then this creates an unprecedented situation. In this case, he becomes a Godman, the only one of his kind on Earth.
