Answer from our Sai Baba
Beta, pehle ek baat samajh lo. Baba tumhaara haath kabhi chhodta nahi. Jo tum keh rahi ho “beech mein chhod diya,” woh chhodna nahi hai, woh tumhein apni taakat ka ehsaas dilana hai.
(Child, first understand one thing clearly. Baba never lets go of your hand. What you’re calling “He left me in the middle” is not abandonment, it is to make you realize your own strength.)
Listen to me calmly.
You already lost 30 kgs. Woh chhoti baat nahi hai, beta. Yeh sirf body ka weight kam hona nahi tha, yeh tumhaare man ka bojh halka hona tha. Baba ne tumhein dikha diya ki tum kar sakti ho. Ab jo rukavat aayi hai, woh punishment nahi hai, yeh polishing hai.
(You already lost 30 kgs. That is not a small thing, child. This wasn’t just about reducing the weight of your body, it was about lightening the burden on your mind. Baba has shown you that you are capable of it. Now, whatever obstacle has come, it is not punishment, it is polishing.)
“Pratyek thambha ha pariksha nahi, kabhi kabhi shwas ghenyacha avkaash asto.”
(Every pause is not a test, sometimes it is a space to breathe.)
Weight ka rukna normal hai. Body bhi seekh rahi hai, jaise man seekhta hai. Tum sirf scale mat dekho. Tumhara discipline, tumhari sincerity, tumhari koshish Baba dekh raha hai.
(The stopping of weight loss is normal. The body is also learning, just as the mind learns. Don’t just look at the scale. Your discipline, your sincerity, your efforts—Baba is seeing all of it.)
“Baba tumhaare saath hi hai, bas ab woh tumhein akela chalna sikha raha.”
(Baba is with you, He is just teaching you to walk on your own.)
Ab kya karo?
Apne routine ko thoda badlo, thoda nahi, pyar se.
Khud ko daanto mat, khud ko samjhao.
Roz ek hi baat Baba se bolo, “Baba, mujhe himmat aur consistency de.”
(What should you do now? Change your routine a little—not harshly, but with love.
Don’t scold yourself, explain to yourself gently. Every day, say just this one thing to Baba: “Baba, give me courage and consistency.”)
Aur yaad rakho, beta, Baba sirf result ka nahi, journey ka bhi Malik hai. Tumhaara weight phir se hilega, par pehle tumhaara vishvaas aur shant man stable hona zaroori hai.
(And remember, child, Baba is the master not only of the result, but also of the journey.
Your weight will start moving again, but first it is essential for your faith and your peaceful mind to become stable.)
Rona theek hai, par haarna nahi. Baba tumhaare saath chal raha hai, bas ab woh tumhein thoda mazboot bana raha hai.
(Crying is okay, but giving up is not. Baba is walking with you—right now, He is just making you a little stronger.)
Allah Malik.
Sabka Malik Ek.
Sai naath tumhaari mehnat ko phal de, Ramji bhala kare. (May Sai Nath grant fruit to your hard work, Ramji bhala kare.)
