Svyatoslav Dubyanskiy – Prema Sai Baba. The Mystery of God. Part One (страница 2)

Performing miracles does not prove outright that a given candidate is a divine incarnation, just as the absence of miracles cannot disprove the fact that one of these candidates could be a divine incarnation.

The presence or absence of miracles does not prove or disprove anything. However, the presence of miraculous powers and the feeling of a divine presence at least indicates the uniqueness of most of these young people who proclaim themselves as Prema Sai.

It is very difficult to make your choice. It is a responsible decision; and therefore, it is psychologically safer to reject all candidates. Those Sai followers who reject all pretenders prefer to maintain that the real Prema Sai Baba must be born in the future. Such an attitude can become a trap for those who will wait for the divine incarnation in the eternal future and miss the manifestation of God in the present.

The complexity of choice exists only for the human mind, which is entangled in the eternal game of God. The human mind tends to be logical and monosyllabic. The mind cannot understand predictions about the place and time of Prema Sai Baba's birth, for they are many-sided. The human mind also finds it difficult to sort through the leapfrog of numerous candidates.

Perhaps the number of candidates will grow. I do not dare to guess how many there will be in a few years. Is it possible the candidates will be not only boys, but also girls? Is it possible there will be candidates not only in India, but also in other countries? It's hard to say. Anything is possible.

I hold the feeling that God (Absolute Consciousness) may well manifest in not one, but many bodies. This means Prema Sai Baba may not be just one person but there could be as many as you like, and they could embody different aspects of Divinity.

For me, the question does not look like this: "One is true, and the rest are deceivers, crooks and crazy." I am open to the potential possibility of the parallel existence of a certain number of divine incarnations of different levels.

Regardless, it is becoming clearer to me that the full manifestation of Prema Sai Baba has taken place in one body. This means that one of the candidates is the full incarnation of the Absolute Consciousness of Sai.

Note, the presence of one full incarnation of Prema Sai does not negate the potential possibility of the parallel existence of a certain number of partial divine incarnations, manifesting various aspects in themselves. According to my feeling, some candidates may well turn out to be scammers or even mentally deranged people. The situation is not easy.

When we talk about the process of reincarnation of the human soul, it is logical to assume that after the death of the body, the soul continues its journey in the subtle space, and ultimately reincarnates in a new body. If we think about the reincarnation of God, then we come into contact with the impersonal ultimate reality. This means that in this case there are no restrictions, including the number of bodies in which the Absolute Consciousness can be embodied.

We can find all the answers only in the depths of our spiritual heart. Of course, I am not suggesting that logic should be completely excluded from our investigation. Logic can sometimes be helpful, although it should be remembered that logic has strong limitations, especially when we are trying to understand the mystery of God's birth on Earth.

The practice of deep meditation and the opening of the spiritual heart is what will help everyone to understand such a complex issue. Mystical experiences and insights are very subjective experiences; therefore, what one person feels and realizes may be completely inaccessible or unacceptable for another.

In the process of learning the truth about God, it is impossible to hide behind other people's backs or authoritative opinions. Even if millions of people claim that some candidate is the true Prema Sai Baba, this does not negate your personal responsibility for your own choice. Only one's own personal practice of meditation and contemplation can lead a person to enlightenment about the truth.

In the following chapters we will consider the unique predictions of Sathya Sai Baba himself about his future birth. I will provide facts and evidence that the boy born in the village of Doddamallur on June 28, 2012, is the true full incarnation of Prema Sai Baba.

4. Sathya Sai Baba blessed this book

Once Jaya Lakshmi Amma asked me to write an article, and possibly a whole book, with my memories and testimonies about Prema Sai Baba and his childhood. Thus began the preliminary work on this book. The first pages of the manuscript appeared already in 2018, although the main work began in 2023, immediately after the Shivaratri festival, as I have already described.

Jaya Lakshmi Amma's request was quite natural as I had lived next to the divine boy since he was three and a half years old. Watching his childhood, I witnessed many amazing events that needed to be carefully and accurately captured for future generations.

I started writing down my memories with inspiration. The first manuscript was an article, which was subsequently expanded and finalized by me into a book. After three days of hard work, the article was almost ready. Suddenly, the computer crashed, which strangely lasted only five minutes, after which the computer started working normally again.

I checked the contents of the computer's memory and realized that all the materials were saved, except for the article dedicated to Prema Sai Baba. I was frustrated but started working again.

The second time, I worked on the article for several days and again there was a problem with the computer. All materials were in order, except for this manuscript, which disappeared a second time. I realized that either God did not want me to write these memoirs, or I wrote something wrong.

The next day, in a mystical dream, I saw Sathya Sai Baba, who explained to me the essence of my mistake. In the first version of the manuscript, I called the divine boy Pritam, after the name given to him at birth by his parents.

In the dream I was able to realize that I should only use the name Prema Sai Baba and never use the name given to him at birth. After that, I was able to successfully complete the manuscript, which was first published as an article, and then expanded into a book.

The name reflects the essence of a person. The way we call it indicates our understanding of its essence. We should call him Prema Sai Baba because he is Prema Sai Baba, and it doesn't matter what name the boy was given at birth.

When he was three and four years old, I saw him as half child, half God. For me, he was a boy with great energy and spiritual potential. When he was five years old, I suddenly stopped seeing him as a child and a human being.

At some point I realized pure Absolute Divinity played the role of a naughty and cheerful boy. He blessed us to understand that he is Prema Sai Baba. He came to this world to give enlightenment to all mankind, to unite all people and to bless one and all.

This book is my research on Prema Sai Baba, the third Sai Avatar. My mystical connection with him is not accidental. I was fortunate enough to be Sathya Sai Baba's interpreter for several years. I first came to Puttaparthi in 1993, then I came to the ashram regularly and lived there for several months a year. I used to visit the ashram regularly until Sathya Sai Baba left his body in 2011.

I served as an interpreter during personal meetings of Sathya Sai Baba with Russian-speaking devotees from different countries. Many times, I had the honor to communicate with Sathya Sai Baba in person.

During audiences and personal meetings, he spoke in English, which I translated into Russian. It was a unique experience where I witnessed numerous miracles, as well as spiritual instructions that Sathya Sai Baba gave to his devotees and visitors.

In this book, I will not write about all the amazing details of my personal interaction with Sathya Sai Baba. I published three books of my memoirs, which were subsequently translated into English. The most complete material with my memories of Sathya Sai Baba is published in the sixth part of my main autobiographical book, which is called Creativity of Eternal Life.

In the book you are reading now, I will talk about my experience with the unique boy who is the next incarnation of Sathya Sai Baba. In the pages of this book, I describe the events that took place between 2015 and 2023, when Prema Sai Baba was between two and eleven years old, although I physically met him when he was three years old.

The events and miracles that I narrate are my personal experience. I was a direct witness and participant in most of these events. Naturally, some of the stories were recorded from the words of other devotees. All materials were given to me in detail and repeatedly checked for their authenticity.

On the pages of this book, I will bring to your attention not only materials about the events of the life of the divine boy, but also my reflections on some philosophical issues, in the context of the tradition of the three Sai Avatars. We will be reflecting on difficult and controversial topics related to the discussion on the further development of Sai Baba's mission.
