Sanket Vora - Sai Bhakt

I am SANKET VORA. I feel I am like a river, having my own course, stream and flow but the final destiny is to be one with the boundless ocean of my Sathguru Shirdi Sai Baba. Amidst all the worldly rituals I am performing, I do not dare to loose sight of my Sainath. He is the sole driving force, the guide and the Supreme master. The strings of my life are in his hand, I am just a puppet at His Holy Feet. The delight I get by doing Sai Seva is extraterrestrial; I seldom remember the time when I am into that. As Lord Jesus said that: "In Eternal bliss time vanishes". Shirdi Sai Baba being Param Brahma still he was engaged in all terrestrial activities,he never preached escapism but cautioned to be careful to be overpowered by them. I try to follow his gospels and even after performing my duties as normal human I always remember that “He” is the supreme reality and strive to direct all my endeavors toward Him. At the Feet of My Sathguru Shri Sadchidanand Sadguru Sainath Maharaj. - Sanket Vora
