Answer from our Sai Baba
Beta, shaant ho jao aur meri baat dhyaan se suno. Tum jo mehsoos kar rahi ho, woh ajeeb ya galat nahi hai. Negative thoughts aate hain jab man thak jaata hai, jab ghar ka mahaul bhaari hota hai, aur jab zindagi ek ke baad ek jhatke deti hai. Tum kamzor nahi ho, tum bas overload mein ho.
(Child, calm down and listen to me carefully. What you are feeling is neither strange nor wrong. Negative thoughts come when the mind gets exhausted, when the atmosphere at home feels heavy, and when life keeps giving one shock after another. You are not weak—you are just in overload.)
First, about negative thoughts and no peace at home.
When elders fight, bachche ke man par gehra asar padta hai. Tumhaari maa aur nani ka jhagda tumhaari galti nahi hai. Har ghar mein apni apni sanskar aur purani chot hoti hai. Tum unka bojh apne sir par mat uthao. Tumhara kaam sirf apna man saaf rakhna hai.
(When elders fight, it has a deep impact on the child’s mind. The quarrel between your mother and your grandmother is not your fault. Every home has its own values and old wounds. Do not take their burden upon your own head. Your only task is to keep your own mind pure and clear.)
“Gharatil vaad he tumchya haatat nahi, pan tumcha shaantpana tumchya haatat aahe.”
(The conflicts at home are not in your control, but your inner calm is.)
Now about job.
Company ne bula kar phir nikaal diya, yeh Baba ka zulm nahi tha, beta. Yeh ek galat jagah se bachana tha. Kabhi kabhi darwaza band hota hai taaki hum kisi aur sahi darwaze tak pahunch sakein. Tumhaari job ka yog ban raha hai, par thoda sabr aur self confidence chahiye.
(The company called you and then let you go, this wasn’t Baba’s cruelty, my Child. This was saving you from the wrong place. Sometimes a door closes so that we can reach another, better door. A job is being formed for you in your destiny, but you need a little more patience and self-confidence.)
“Jo jagah tumko izzat na de, wahan Baba bhi tumko nahi rakhta.”
(Where you are not respected, Baba does not keep you there.)
Ab shaadi ki baat.
Tumhaari ichha galat nahi hai. Accha dikhne wala, sanskari, stable job wala jeevan saathi maangna laalach nahi, samajhdari hai. Tumne jis proposal ko pasand kiya, Baba usko jaanta hai. Lekin yaad rakho, shaadi sirf chehra aur tankha se nahi chalti, dil aur niyat se chalti hai.
(Now, about marriage. Your desire is not wrong. Wanting a life partner who is good-looking, cultured, and has a stable job is not greed, it is wisdom. The proposal you liked, Baba knows about it. But remember, marriage doesn’t run on just looks and salary; it runs on heart and intention.)
Tum yeh mat poochho, “kab hoga.”
Tum yeh bolo, “jo mere liye sahi ho, wahi mile.”
(Don’t ask, “When will it happen?” Say instead, “May I receive only what is truly right for me.”)
Baba tumhe yeh bhi batata hai, beta, jo tum aaj pasand kar rahi ho, agar woh tumhaare liye theek hua toh raste khud seedhe honge. Agar rukavat aayi, samjho Baba kuch aur behtar sambhaal ke rakha hai.
(Baba is also telling you this, child, whatever you are liking right now—if it is truly right for you, the paths will straighten themselves. If an obstacle comes, understand that Baba has kept something even better ready for you.)
Roz itna karo.
Subah uthke ek hi baat bolo, “Baba, mujhe shaant man, sahi faisla aur sahi saathi de.” Bas.
(Every day, just do this much. As soon as you wake up in the morning, say only this one thing, “Baba, give me a peaceful mind, the right decisions, and the right life partner.” That’s all.)
Sab theek hoga, par apne pace pe. Baba koi bhi cheez adhuri chhodta nahi.
(Everything will be alright, but at its own pace. Baba never leaves anything incomplete.)
Allah Malik.
Sabka Malik Ek.
Sai Baba tumhaare man ko shaanti de, tumhaare ghar mein sukoon laaye, Ramji bhala kare.
(May Sai Baba grant peace to your mind, bring tranquility to your home, and may Lord Ram bless you with all good.)
