Shri Shirdi Sai Baba Ashtotra Sada Namavali An Arati to You, Baba…. from our Hearts. Baba, I have no words to thank you for your immense blessings in these 108 weeks. Only because of your blessings and miracles, that we have completed this Yagna of 108 flowers of your Ashtothra Namavali being offered one a week for 108 weeks continuously without a break by me and my dear IL family. And in these 108 weeks we were carried, led and enlightened by you as you are always with us, your devotees. Every one of your Namavali took us into a higher level of spiritual understanding just by meditating upon you seeking the absolute Truth. Every one of your Namavali gives us an opportunity to understand the great attributes you have as Brahmam, God or Guru. You are Brahmam to those who want to see the Brahmam, through Gnana Marg, the Omnipotent, Omniscient and Omnipresent transcending space and time having manifested yourself anywhere anytime. You are God to those who want to see the God through the Bhakti Marg, having manifested as Shiv, Ram, Krishna, Vithoba, and Panduranga. You are Guru to those who want to see the Guru, through the Karma Marg, having manifested yourself as their own Gurus as Dattatreya, Raghavendra and Raghunath Maharaj. We understand that these 108Namavalis,their meanings and reflections on them can apply to any God or Guru who can be seen in your incarnation; that this is the essence of Sanathan Dharma that the Universal Self can be reached in any of the three forms of worship namely as Brahmam, God or Guru. We bow our heads before your kindness to inspire as to the structure of each flower giving its meaning through the Shirdi Sai Sansthan and reflecting upon them and then relating each flower to your life in Sai Satcharita as narrated by your great devotee Hemad Pant. We bow our heads before your kindness giving us the forum of Indus Ladies, who supported us in offering these flowers all these 108 weeks. We bow our heads before your kindness blessing us all, your devotees, who jointly offered the flower for these 108 weeks and also shared our experiences. We bow our heads before your kindness in blessing all those Seekers, who will with the help of these flowers of Fragrance recite your Namavali for 108 days continuously and meditate on you and Sai Satcharita and get peace and bliss both in this life and in the life after. Satchidanada Sadguru Sai Nath Maharaj Ki Jai. Om Tat Sat.
