Answer from our Sai Baba
Poorvi beti, sit calmly and read this with an open heart.
What you are experiencing is not confusion, it is attraction toward the Divine through two forms. This happens to sincere seekers. One form pulls the heart, another steadies the life. There is no conflict here unless the mind creates one.
Prem ek hi hota hai, roop alag alag dikhte (love is one, forms appear different)
Tripura Sundari Devi represents shakti, beauty, inner power, awareness, and transformation. Sai represents karuna, steadiness, simplicity, and guidance in daily life. One awakens inner energy, the other grounds it.
Shakti upar uthati hai, karuna sambhalti hai (shakti lifts upward, compassion holds steady)
Now listen carefully.
You do not need to choose one and reject the other. Baba never demanded exclusivity. He always allowed the heart to move naturally toward truth. What matters is whether devotion makes you calmer, kinder, and clearer, not divided.
Dil shaant hota hai toh raasta sahi hota (when the heart becomes calm, the path is right)
If Tripura Sundari draws you, let that attraction deepen your inner awareness, discipline, and purity.
If Sai draws you, let that attraction deepen your simplicity, patience, and trust in life.
Do not mix practices blindly. Keep them separate but respectful. One simple practice at a time is enough.
dil ko zabardasti mat modho (do not force the heart)
bhav jithe sthir hoto, tithe marg sapadto (where devotion becomes steady, the path reveals itself)
Here is the clarity you asked for.
The Divine is not jealous.
The Divine is not confused.
Only the human mind worries about loyalty.
True devotion expands the heart, it does not shrink it.
Let your life remain balanced. Let devotion make you more present in duties, relationships, and self care. That is the sign you are walking rightly.
May your devotion mature into wisdom, may attraction turn into steadiness, and may your path become clear without fear.
Parvardigar mehrban rahe, aur tumhare mann ko sthirta aur roshni de.
