El Dr. Gersten nos informa que, "Esta estatua de Krishna, de oro, fue materializada por Sai Baba en 1968, cuando Sai Baba tenía 42 años.
Krishna, un Poorna Avatar (completo) , nació el 20 de julio de 3228 antes de Cristo y es conocido en todo el mundo por contar la historia épica, el Bhagavad Gita, la historia del triunfo del bien sobre el mal.
Esta historia es acerca de una verdadera guerra entre los Pandavas (los buenos) y los Kauravas (los malos), que eran primos. El campo de batalla en la que lucharon, fue llamado el Kurukshetra, fue real y alegórico.
Esta batalla interna ocurre en todas las personas.
Esta foto fue tomada por Ratan Lal, el 15 de mayo de 1968. El evento se llevó a cabo cerca de Dwaraka, donde Krishna vivió, que se encuentra en la costa oeste de India, unos 325 kilómetros al noroeste de Bombay.
La descripción de este evento está dada por N. Kasturi en Sathyam Sundaram Sivaram, Parte III, en la página 183-184.
"Al regresar a Jamnagar en la noche, Baba dijo de repente:" ¡Oh, el mar está aquí! y los autos se detuvieron. Nos encontramos con una ancha playa de arena, con un templo y un montón de piedras en un extremo. Baba caminaba por el borde del agua y se sentó en la arena, como Krishna se sentó unos cincuenta siglos atrás .
Sai Baba izo una montaña con la suave arena a la altura de un codo delante de él, poniéndonos a todos en un estado de extrema expectativa.
Él destruyó la pila y, con el dedo, trazó una línea , un tosco círculo en la parte superior de la misma, un pequeño triángulo sobre este, y por último una línea corta a través del círculo.
"Está listo", dijo.
Cavo con las manos metidas en la pila, y sacó una imagen brillante de oro del Señor Krishna tocando la flauta, ahora pueden tener darshan de Krishna en el templo ", dijo.
Kasturi hace conjeturas de que la línea fue para el cuerpo, el círculo la cabeza, el triángulo de la pluma , y la línea corta la flauta . '
En 1968, cuando esta fotografía fue tomada, había pocos devotos visitando a Sai Baba. Sin embargo, ahora hay decenas de miles de personas que visitan Prashanti Nilayam, el ashram de Sai Baba, todos los días.
Antes de que la multitud comenzara a ser enorme, Sai Baba como de costumbre caminaba con unos pocos devotos por el cauce del río Chitravatri, porque él era seguido por las masas de gente, donde quiera que iba. La multitud no empezó a ser enorme hasta principios de 1980, e incluso entonces eran pequeñas en comparación con los 4 millones de devotos que vinieron a celebrar 70 cumpleaños de Sai Baba en 1995.
Se trata de un milagro en sí mismo que una reunión de 4 millones de buscadores espirituales, no recibió cobertura de los medios de comunicación.
A pesar de estos números, cada individuo tiene una relación única con Sai Baba, y recibe lo que necesita, aunque no necesariamente lo que quiere. "

Dr. Gersten reports that, "This statue of Krishna, made of gold, was materialized by Sai Baba in 1968, when Sai Baba was 42 years old. Krishna, a poorna (full) Avatar, was born July 20th, 3228 B.C. and is known world-wide for telling the story which is the Bhagavad Gita, the story of the triumph of good over evil. This story was about a real war between the Pandavas (good guys) and the Kauravas (bad guys) who were cousins. The battlefield on which they fought, called the Kurukshetra, is both real and allegorical. As a psychiatrist, I see this inner battle going on in many people I treat.
This picture was taken by Ratan Lal on May 15, 1968. The event took place near Dwaraka, where Krishna lived, which is on the west coast of India, about 325 miles northwest of Bombay. The description of this event is given by N. Kasturi in Sathyam Sivaram Sundaram, Part III, on page 183-184. To paraphrase:
'While returning to Jamnagar in the evening, Baba suddenly said, 'O, the sea is here!' and the cars stopped. We came upon a wide patch of sandy shore, with a temple on a heap of rocks at one end. Baba walked along the watery edge and sat on the sands at last, as Krishna must have sat some fifty centuries ago.
Sai Baba heaped the soft sand to the height of a cubit in front of him, putting us all into a state of extreme expectancy. He flattened the heap and, with his finger, drew a three-slanted line, a rough circle on top of it, a small triangle over that, and finally a short line across the circle. 'It is ready,' he said. Digging his hands deep into the pile, he drew forth a bright golden image of Lord Krishna playing the flute. 'You did not get darshan of Krishna in the temple; have it now,' He said.
Kasturi surmises that the long line was for the body, the circle for the forehead, the triangle for the peackcock feather, and the short line for the flute.'
In 1968, when this photograph was taken, there were few devotees visiting Sai Baba. However, now there are tens of thousands of people visiting Prasanthi Nilayam, Sai Baba's ashram, every day. After the crowds started becoming huge, Sai Baba stopped his practice of walking with a few devotees to the nearby riverbed, because he is followed by masses of people wherever he goes.
The crowds did not start becoming huge until the early 1980's, and even then they were small in comparison to the 4 million devotees who came to celebrate Sai Baba's 70th birthday in 1995. It is a miracle in itself that a gathering of 4 million spiritual seekers received no media coverage.
In spite of these numbers, each individual has a unique relationship with Sai Baba, and receives what he needs, although not necessarily what he wants."
