Pearls of Devotion
29. Om Shri Sai Shirdi-Sai-Abheda-Shaktyavataaraaya Namah
[Whose Glory is not different from the Shirdi Avataara.]
Sathya Sai Baba is the incarnation of Shirdi Sai Baba. There cannot be a more truthful statement. Baba Himself had told this. When His family members and a few others expressed apprehension over their statement, Baba threw some jasmine flowers on the ground. A miracle unveiled. The flowers beautifully arranged themselves as the word ‘Sai Baba’ in Telugu. Baba declared that Shirdi Sai Baba is the name of his previous incarnation. He also told that He is at present born as Sathya Sai Baba and in the next avatar He would be born as Prema Sai in Karnataka.
