Devotion | God 1.0
ue to merits of past births, we have got the birth of a human being. So we should be ever conscious to attain the objective of our life i.e. self-realization. Saints show us the way to achieve self-realization. They make us to follow the path of their own remembrance which ultimately leads us to union with God. Sai Baba was one such saint, but the only exception was that he was God Incarnate but lived like a saint, a human, among others. He never claimed to be God, but always uttered that he was faithful servant of his master (God). Bhakti or religious devotion is however of several types. On one extreme is the purest form of satvic (selfless) devotion that tends to be sacrificial and selfless in nature and leads to the liberation of its practitioner and his or her union with God. Next is the rajasic (egoistic) form of devotion that seeks to use devotion as a means to gain some physical, mental or spiritual power or boon in order to further one's own egoistic interests or selfish motive. http://devotionalindia.com/SRISATYASAIBABA
