Baba said that He was omnipresent, occupying Land, Air, Country, World, Light and Heaven, and that He was not limited.
To remove the misunderstanding of those, who thought that Baba was only His body – three cubits and a half in length, ‘Baba incarnated Himself in this form and if any devotee meditated on HIM day and night with complete self-surrender, he experienced complete union (without any difference) with Him like sweetness and sugar, waves and sea, eye and its luster. ‘
He, who wants to get rid of the cycle of births and deaths, should lead a righteous life, with his mind calm and composed. He should always engage himself in good actions, should do his duties and surrender himself, heart and soul to HIM.
He need not then be afraid of anything. He who trusts Baba entirely, hears and expounds His Leelas and does not think of anything else, is sure to attain Self-realization.
- Baba asked many to remember His name and to surrender to Him,
- but to those, who wanted to know who they were (‘Who am I’ enquiry), He advised Shravanam (study) and Mananam (meditation).
- To some, He advised remembering God’s name,
- to others hearing His Leelas,
- to some worship of His Feet, to others reading and studying Adhyatma Ramayan, Jnaneshwari and other sacred scriptures.
- Some He made sit near His Feet,
- some He sent to Khandoba’s temple, and
- some He advised the repetition of the thousands names of Vishnu and
- some the study of Chhandogya Upanishad and Geeta.
There were no limit, nor restriction to His instructions. To some, He gave them in person. To others by visions in dreams.
- To one addicted to drink, He appeared in his dream, sat on his chest, pressed it and left him, after he gave a promise not to touch liquor anymore.
- To some, He explained some Mantras like `Gurur Brahma’ in dreams.
- To some devotee, who was practising Hath-Yoga, He sent word that he should leave off Hath- Yoga practices, sit quiet and wait (Saburi).
It is impossible to describe all His ways and methods. In ordinary wordly dealings. See here
