11. Sathya Sai Baba predictions about Prema Sai Baba
We now turn to the ninth chapter of Sri Sathya Sai Anandadai (Journey with Sai). Of course, it would be my great pleasure to give you an exact translation of the ninth chapter, but it is impossible to do so.
The original book was published in Kannada, which is spoken in the South Indian state of Karnataka. Subsequently, the copyright was transferred to other publishing structures, which translated the book into English with obvious falsifications. Thus, a distorted version of this unique book is now being circulated around the world.
The editors completely removed important information about Sathya Sai Baba's predictions regarding his next incarnation as Prema Sai Baba. The current owners of the book have prescribed strict copyright conditions, according to which no one can even quote the original text of the manuscript. What are they so afraid of?
They are afraid the truth and authentic information will become public knowledge. That is why I am forced not to publish the exact translation, but to retell the content of the ninth chapter of this unique book.
Copyright law does not forbid me to state in my own words the true content of the original. I present the material only in the form of a free retelling, focusing on the most important elements. Copyright law also allows me to comment on and analyze the information in this book without retyping the text itself.
The information below is the message of Sathya Sai Baba about the essence of the triple divine incarnation of Sai on Earth. In particular, Sathya Sai Baba said the triple incarnation of God in the form of three Sai Avatars was predicted five thousand years ago.
Speaking about the fact that the triple incarnation of Sai was predicted five thousand years before our time, Sathya Sai Baba does not explain in which ancient texts this was mentioned. Perhaps there were ancient texts that have not survived, or we are talking about an oral tradition that has come down to us in the form of legends.
In previous chapters, I mentioned that various world religions talk about divine incarnations that should be incarnated on Earth in the future. The Second Coming of Christ (Christianity), Buddha Maitreya (Buddhism), Messiah (Judaism), Imam Mahdi (some branches of Islam), and Kalki (Hinduism). Perhaps, speaking about ancient predictions, Sathya Sai Baba had in mind all these Divine Teachers of humanity.
Between 1944 and 1952, Sathya Sai Baba told several devotees from the South Indian city of Mysore that three Sai Avatars would incarnate on Earth. Then, Sathya Sai Baba was between 18 and 26 years old.
These conversations took place in different places – sometimes in the "old Mandir", which is the very first building built in the village of Puttaparthi as a temporary ashram. Some talks took place in the state of Karnataka in the city of Mysore and its environs.
Sathya Sai Baba said three Avatars will incarnate on the territory of India. The first is Shirdi Sai Baba, the second is Sathya Sai Baba and the third is Prema Sai Baba. Prema Sai Baba will incarnate in the village of Doddamallur.
This village is located near the city of Channapatna in the state of Karnataka. Sathya Sai Baba said that in his current incarnation he will live for 96 years, and then a year later he will be born as Prema Sai Baba. In this incarnation he will live for about 75 years.
The researchers explain that the ancient Vedic principles for calculating age are different from modern ones. According to Vedic principles, 96 years means approximately 84 years, which was the age of Sathya Sai Baba at the time of his passing. Considering the estimated lifespan of Prema Sai Baba, it can be considered that according to Vedic principles, 75 years will be equal to the age of less than 70 years, according to the modern international reckoning of age.
In his three incarnations, Sai realizes all divine goals; as such, the world will then be filled with peace, love and harmony. This will be a truly new stage in the evolution of mankind. Many spiritual teachers and esotericists of different traditions also predict the imminent beginning of a new divine era.
Since modern civilization highly appreciates the scientific method of cognition, Sathya Sai Baba mentioned the difference between the scientific approach and those gigantic possibilities that God has.
Sathya Sai Baba said that scientific knowledge is limited to the five-dimensional sensory world. However, he has perfect spiritual vision. Sathya Sai Baba can see realities that even the greatest scientists do not understand. No modern scientific technology can match God's omniscience. He can know exactly what happened many aeons ago, as well as what will happen in the future.
During his conversations with the first devotees, in the mid-1940s, Sathya Sai Baba said he was beyond space, time, and all limitations. He even stated he can manifest himself in a huge number of bodies at the same time, while these bodies are located in different places in the universe.
Sathya Sai Baba has always been famous for the fact that he could materialize various charms for his devotees such as rings, medallions or rosaries. I have repeatedly seen objects materialized by Sathya Sai Baba. Sometimes they seemed completely ordinary, yet every time I held a unique item in my hand, I felt a special energy. Any ring, rosary or medallion created by him were special mystical objects and genuine amulets in the truest sense of the word.
During his conversations, he explained that if he materialized any objects to his followers, the objects subsequently informed him if the owners were having problems, difficulties, or were subject to dangerous situations, and that in their moment of need, he would send help and blessings to them. Any object materialized by him played this role of direct connection with him.
Sathya Sai Baba proclaimed to his devotees that whatever form and name of God you worship, whatever religious tradition you practice, God accepts your prayer. The tradition of the three Sai Avatars is a single spiritual space of the divine evolution of all mankind. All forms and names belong to God, and you follow the spiritual path closest to your heart.
Sathya Sai Baba spoke about the fact that, in accordance with Vedic ideas, the full cycle of development is divided into four periods, which are called the Yuga in Sanskrit. Periods of four Yugas (four epochs) return again and again. That is how the global cycle of time looks.
The ten Avatars of God incarnate in these four epochs, most often the Vedic tradition calls them incarnations of the god Vishnu. It should be remembered that Vishnu is not the name of any deity, but one of the traditional Vedic names of the supreme Creator God. Different religions call God by different names, even within the framework of Hindu philosophy, there are a lot of names for God.
The last incarnation of God in each cycle is the Kalki Avatar. In our age of Kali yuga, the Kalki Avatar has been divided into three parts: Shirdi Sai Baba, Sathya Sai Baba, and Prema Sai Baba. The Vedic texts do not mention that the Kalki Avatar will split into three incarnations; however, Sathya Sai Baba explained this is exactly what will happen.
Sathya Sai Baba said that such a triple incarnation of God on Earth can only be seen in this era. The triple incarnation of Sai has not been in the past and will not be in the future. That is why we are witnessing this unique event of the triple incarnation of Sai.
God spiritually prepared humanity when he incarnated as Shirdi Sai Baba. God spread spiritual knowledge when he incarnated as Sathya Sai Baba. When God incarnated as Prema Sai Baba, all people will enjoy the fruits of divine self-realization. It is then Sai will bestow happiness and bliss on all mankind.
Of course, it may seem strange to some that Sathya Sai has predicted such a bright outlook when the world is experiencing great political and social difficulties in the 20th and 21st century.
In my opinion, it is possible to note clear positive trends in the spiritual development of a huge number of people. The spiritual development of people is much more active, while the political and social system of human society is still functioning in the old way, and no longer meeting the spiritual and intellectual needs of people.
In 1944, Sathya Sai Baba told the first devotees of his third incarnation as Prema Sai Baba that, “Prema Sai Baba will be born in the small village of Doddamallur, which is located near the city of Channapatna, and this village will subsequently be prosperous, because it is here that God will receive his birth.”
The prediction shows that in the beginning, the village in which Prema Sai is born would be very small and poor, but in time it would become a large and prosperous city.
Sathya Sai Baba took Namagiri Amma and her daughter, Kannamma, to the village of Doddamallur. During this unique journey, Sathya Sai Baba was accompanied by several followers from the city of Mysore.
In this small village there is an ancient temple of the god, Vishnu, who is called Aprameya Swami. In this temple there is a famous altar with a statue of the boy, Krishna, which pilgrims come from all over India to worship.
Sathya Sai Baba said that Prema Sai Baba would be born into a poor family in this village and also indicated the house where he would be born. In the original text of the Sri Sathya Sai Anandadai book, we read about the great mission of the three Sai Avatars and accurate predictions about the place and time of Prema Sai Baba's birth.
12. Additional predictions about Prema Sai Baba
Sathya Sai Baba predicted he would live to be 96 years old. However, he left his body at the age of 84. Is there a contradiction in this? How could God be wrong? Obviously, there is no contradiction in this. Only Sathya Sai Baba himself can decide when he should be born and when he should leave this world.
Several years before the end of his life, Sathya Sai Baba repeatedly said: "My mission is accomplished." Nobody wanted to take these words seriously. He left this world on the night of Easter 2011. This was unique because on April 24, 2011, all Christian churches celebrated Easter on the same night.
According to the complex Christian calendar, different Christian communities usually celebrate Easter on different days. In the year when Sathya Sai Baba left the body, Easter coincided on the same day for all Christians. This was a great message of unity and love.
Sathya Sai Baba has said many times that he will be reincarnated as Prema Sai Baba in eight years. At the same time, in some cases, he said he would be born in a year. I have accurate information that Sathya Sai Baba told Shri Kasturi and Subba Rao that he will incarnate in a year.
Many devotees of Sathya Sai Baba are well aware of who Sri Kasturi and Subba Rao are. For those who do not know, I can only say these are two unique people who have lived in the ashram for many years and played an important role in the development of the mission of Sathya Sai Baba.
On the pages of this book, I unfortunately do not have the opportunity to tell in detail the biographies of these great people, each of whom is worthy of a separate detailed narrative.
Sathya Sai Baba openly said in his next life he would be born near the city of Mandya in the state of Karnataka, southern India. However, Sathya Sai Baba told Sri Kasturi and Subba Rao many more details, in particular, that he would be born in the village of Doddamallur, where the famous ancient temple of Aprameya Swami is located.
I did not know Sri Kasturi personally as he passed away a few years before I first came to Puttaparthi. However, I knew Subba Rao very well, with whom I have been in close contact for several years. I often went to Subba Rao's room where he lived at the ashram. We talked about Sathya Sai Baba and his spiritual mission. Many Russian groups also visited Subba Rao and received spiritual guidance from him.
Let's sum up the predictions about the birth of Prema Sai Baba. About the time of his next incarnation, Sathya Sai Baba told various people that he could be born in eight years or one year.
About the place of his next birth, Sathya Sai Baba predicted that he would be born near the city of Mandya, Karnataka, but for some he indicated more specifically, the village of Doddamallur.
In fact, all the devotees of the older generation were well aware of all these predictions. In 2016, I met Ramanna, who was Sathya Sai Baba's personal driver in the mid-1980s.
Sathya Sai Baba blessed him to buy a house in the village of Doddamallur back in 2010, a year before he left his body in 2011. Ramanna bought a house in the village of Doddamallur because Sathya Sai Baba revealed to him the secret that his next birth would be in this village.
I was fortunate enough to visit Ramanna's house many times and listen to his reminiscences of Sathya Sai Baba. Sathya Sai Baba passed away on April 24, 2011. Prema Sai Baba was born on June 28, 2012, just over a year later. He was born exactly in the place that Sathya Sai Baba indicated to his closest devotees.
13. Miracles a year before meeting Prema Sai Baba
I first met Prema Sai Baba on March 3, 2016, a few days before the Shivaratri festival. However, my history of interaction with him began a year before in 2015 when Sathya Sai Baba repeatedly appeared to me and my wife, Svetlana, in our dreams, showing us the village and the street where Prema Sai Baba was born. We were even shown the divine boy’s parents.
In another dream, Prema Sai Baba visited my wife and said that he had already been born and was waiting for us. My wife, Svetlana, clearly remembered all the details of that amazing dream including small house and Prema Sai Baba's father, whose name is Mahesh.
To my wife’s surprise, a few months later she went to the very same place seen in her dream, and also saw the very man who is the father of Prema Sai Baba.
I teach meditation practices in the tradition of Kriya Yoga, and I regularly conduct master classes in different cities and countries. In 2015, I held a seminar in India, next to the ashram of Sathya Sai Baba.
At this time, I learned that a number of my students also had mystical dreams where Sathya Sai Baba had also appeared to them. In the dreams, Sathya Sai Baba said he had already been born and was waiting for our arrival to his home.
People saw in their dreams a divine child and his parents, much like the dream my wife and I had. During the mystical dreams, Sathya Sai Baba asked some of my students: “What will you give Prema Sai? He is a child and waiting for gifts!” What an amazing sense of humor.
When Sathya Sai Baba passed away in the spring of 2011, my wife Svetlana prayed to God for the opportunity to meet Prema Sai Baba as soon as possible, and if possible, as soon as he was born. Svetlana wanted to see his divine play as a little Krishna. These prayers were heard.
In July 2015 we arrived at Sathya Sai Baba's ashram where I was leading a two-week Kriya Yoga meditation workshop. That time I came with a group of students who were studying meditation and mantra practice with me.
Once I was meditating in front of the tomb of our beloved Sathya Sai Baba. Suddenly, I had a mystical experience and saw the golden astral body of the boy Krishna hovering in the air right above the tomb; it was a mystical vision of the subtle body of Krishna. I knew right away it was Prema Sai Baba. Telepathically he told me he had already been born and was waiting for me in his house.
Usually, I do not trust such visions because they can be a game of the mind. In this case, it was a very vivid image, and I realized that this was a real message from God. Immediately, I spoke to all members of our group about this mystical experience.
We left the ashram and got into auto rickshaws (tuk-tuk). I asked the driver if he knew about the birth of Prema Sai Baba. The driver confidently replied that he knew that Prema Sai Baba was born and named the village, Doddamallur. I was surprised by this information. It was strange to hear such a response from a rickshaw driver.
A few minutes later, I arrived at a jewelry store owned by an old friend of mine. He was originally from Bangalore but lived in Puttaparthi for many years. I decided to ask him if he knew about the birth of Prema Sai Baba.
The jeweler said he knew that Prema Sai Baba had already been born in the village of Doddamallur in the state of Karnataka. I was very surprised to hear this message. It seemed that everyone except me already knew about this unique event.
I returned to the hotel where I was staying with the group. I asked the hotel manager about the birth of Prema Sai Baba. In response to my question, the manager said that Prema Sai Baba had already been born and lives in the village of Doddamallur in the neighboring state of Karnataka. These events surprised me. Within an hour, three people told me important and valuable information, completely coincidentally.
The next day, I decided to ask these people again for more details about Prema Sai Baba. I wanted to talk to the people who had shared this valuable information with me. Naturally, I couldn't find the auto rickshaw driver.
When I asked the owner of the jewelry store and the manager of the hotel, they both said they didn't tell me anything and didn’t remember our conversation. They said they did not know anything about the birth of Prema Sai Baba. How could this be?
It then became clear to me this was a great miracle. God told me about his birth through three people, while they themselves did not consciously have this information. Truly, God can speak to a person through any intermediary, even if this intermediary does not even know what is happening.
My only problem was that I didn't know where the village of Doddamallur was located, although I was generally told the village was somewhere in the neighboring state of Karnataka. My Hindu friends from Puttaparthi said the village was not far from the city of Mandya. All members of my group witnessed these amazing events.
By the will of fate we did not go in search of Prema Sai in the year of 2015 because immediately after the seminar in Puttaparthi, we went to the Himalayas. Our first meeting took place a few months later, at the beginning of the next year, in 2016.
14. First meeting with the divine boy
At the very beginning of 2016, I again came with a group to the ashram of Sathya Sai Baba. As usual, I conducted a seminar on Kriya yoga meditation. One part of the program was held in Puttaparthi, and the second part in the city of Mysore, at the foot of the sacred mountain, Chamundi. Every day there was a rich program of meditation practices and lectures on the theory of yoga.
Half a year before the Indian seminar, some of the seminar participants had already experienced unique mystical encounters in dreams, according to which it was clear that Prema Sai Baba had already incarnated. In their mystical dreams, several of my students saw Sathya Sai Baba, who predicted they would soon meet Prema Sai Baba.
On this trip with me there were more than twenty people. Together, we decided to seek out the divine boy, although we knew it would not be an easy task. To meet Prema Sai Baba in person seemed unrealistic, and even the idea of the possibility of such a meeting felt outrageous.
Nevertheless, we took a private bus from Puttaparthi to Mysore city, where I planned to conduct the second part of the seminar. An Indian friend of mine from Puttaparthi, whose name is Sainath, drew on a piece of paper a rough map of the location of the village of Doddamallur, according to which we were supposed to find the home of the divine boy.
The village of Doddamallur is located between the cities of Bangalore and Mysore. I knew the boy Prema Sai Baba would most likely be found in this village. The map drawn by my friend from Puttaparthi indicated that Prema Sai Baba's place of residence was near the city of Mandya. We set off on the road, but in the process of searching, we soon realized the map was inaccurately drawn.
The village of Doddamallur was located in another part of the state of Karnataka, and the site of the proposed home of Prema Sai Baba was marked near the city of Mandya. To begin with, we arrived on our bus in the city of Mandya and stopped next to a large Christian church in the middle of the city. At some point, the thought flashed through my mind that if we could not find Prema Sai Baba, then we would do our meditation practice inside that beautiful church.
Our bus driver was trying to figure out exactly where Prema Sai Baba's supposed home was according to the map provided to us. Local residents and auto rickshaw drivers in the city of Mandya shrugged their shoulders, explaining that the layout of the area was completely wrong.
Realizing we were confused, we decided to ask the police about Prema Sai Baba, but the officers did not know anything about any divine boy in the city of Mandya and its environs. As a result of our inquiries, we found out exactly where the village of Doddamallur was located. The decision was made to immediately search there. This was our last lead.
Just then, the situation began to get more complicated. The bus was only paid for from Puttaparthi to Mysore, and we had already traveled many additional kilometers. As evening was fast approaching, the driver rightfully complained he did not want to wind another hundred or two hundred kilometers extra on the clock.
All the members of the group felt we should not stop the search and that we must continue into the night until we found the divine boy. We decided to negotiate an additional payment with the driver, and thankfully, he agreed to continue our search.
Subsequently, each of the group members, about twenty in total, admitted that while all of this was unfolding, they were practicing the Gayatri mantra silently in their own minds. This was another sign the group effort was producing a good result.
Finally, we arrived at Doddamallur. As soon as the bus entered the village, amrita (the nectar of immortality) began to materialize abundantly in the mouth and throat of my wife Svetlana. At that moment, no one but me and my wife knew about this miracle. The bus driver stopped right in front of the ancient temple of Aprameya Swami, declaring he would not drive any further.
We instantly learned from the villagers where Prema Sai Baba's house was. He was first found and identified as Prema Sai Baba by a group of yogis from the north Indian Himalayan state of Manipur. This happened on April 12, 2015, that is, less than a year before our arrival.
Since the boy Prema Sai Baba was discovered a year before our appearance, the locals easily indicated to the house where he lived. At the time, the boy was three and a half years old.
The first meeting was very intense. We all felt love in our hearts and experienced divine states. One woman called her husband on a mobile phone, who at that moment was in Moscow. This woman's name is Irina, and her husband's name is Maxim.
As soon as Irina made this call, Maxim immediately said he was just practicing meditation and Sathya Sai Baba appeared to him in a mystical vision a few minutes before the phone call and said our group had met with Prema Sai Baba.
It was surprising because at that moment Irina was sitting next to the Prema Sai boy. The first meeting lasted a couple of hours, and then we happily continued our journey to the city of Mysore, where my meditation workshop continued.
A week later I came to the divine boy alone. I sat with his family right on the floor and enjoyed Indian tea with milk. The Prema Sai boy came and sat on the floor next to me. After that, he placed his lotus feet on my lap. I experienced a divine state of bliss and harmony. He kept his feet on my lap for several minutes. I was happy and joy shone in my spiritual heart.
