To:OM SRI SAI DWÄRAKÄMÄYI VÄSINÉ NAMAH - (32) Salutations to Sri Sai, Who is the resident of Dwärakä Mäyi.
In the Shirdi incarnation, Sai resided in a dilapidated masjid called Dwarakamayi. He has described it as follows :
'This is our Dwarakamayi, who looks after one and all. Whoever sits in this masjid, She assures her children fearlessness and frees them from worry. 'This masjidmayi is very gracious. She is the mother of all the simple-hearted devotees. Whoever may encounter any difficulties, she will instantly protect him without a doubt.''Once one sits in her lap, he is bound to attain salvation. Whoever rests in her shade will always derive happiness.' 'This is Dwaraka, whose gates are open to all.'
The place where doors are open to people of all castes and creeds, for accomplishing the four Purusharthas, is called Dwaraka. All four types of devotees are showered with grace and blessings here.
Shirdi Sai had asked devotees to construct a temple of Sri Krishna in the 'Booti wada'. This is now the Sri Sai Samadhi Mandir.
In the second incarnation Sai has created a new Dwaraka, known as 'Prashanthi Nilayam'. People of all castes, creeds and religions are welcome here. Just like in Dwarakamayi, the four types of devotees, 'Ärta' (seeking help), 'Arthärthi' (seeking wealth), 'Jignyäsu' (seeking knowledge) and 'Gyani' (seeking wisdom), are blessed here for accomplishing the four Purusharthas of 'Dharma' (righteousness), 'Artha' (wealth), 'Kama' (good desire) and 'Moksha' (liberation).
This is a story of a Sai devotee named Shri Shyam Juwale from Mumbai. He wrote a book, which was blessed by Swami. At the time, a special event was being celebrated at Shirdi to commemorate the completion of 80 years of the samadhi of the Shirdi Sai avatar. Shyambhau attended this celebration and carried this book along with him. When he went near the samadhi of Shirdi Sai, the electricity went off unexpectedly. There was total darkness. Only the effulgent idol of Sri Sainath was visible in the dim light of the burning oil lamps. Suddenly, he could see Sri Sathya Sai Baba standing behind the samadhi with a gentle smile on His face. Shayambhau was overwhelmed and tears of bliss started rolling down his cheeks. He bowed down in reverence and placed his head on the samadhi. Just then, the power supply was restored. A noble devotee was blessed with the darshan of Parthi Sai Krishna in the vicinity of Shirdi Sai's holy Dwarakamayi.
OM SRI SATHYA SAINATH ARPANAM ASTU
