Sairam
Saipanth is Not a new Religion or a Cult. It is something which has always existed as part of the contents of the Satcharita. We are just extracting and understanding the meaning within the writings of the Satcharita and living by it. There are three founding principles of Saipanth. They are Gnana (Knowledge), Bhakti (Devotion) and Karma (Deeds). This path leads us to Moksha and Eventually “Shunya”, as mentioned in Shri.Sai Satcharitra.
Saipanth is a path which was preached and propagated in a very allegorical or cryptic manner by Shri.Sainath Maharaj of Shirdi. Here we are just
understanding His path and His real teachings and then following the same in living by it.
Gnana
Gnana can be of anything or of any subject. But here the
Gnana that we acquire is what is helpful for our spiritual progression. We are
looking at what is relevant and important for us.
Bhakti
Bhakti is devotion and without it we cannot progress on our Spiritual Path. Devotion is a combination of Emotion and Intellect. An emotion emanating out of a blend of intellect, understanding and love becomes devotion. That is how we are devoted to our Guru. Again, Bhakti is not a ritual. When we say Bhakti, it is about Understanding Guru rather than misinterpreting it as a ritual.
Karma
Karma
in its literal sense means Deeds. Karma for Saipanthis is to understand the
path of our Guru, what he propagated, what His preaching’s are and to live by
them by serving His cause. Yoga Sadhana which is based on the Knowledge Gained
and Understood is Karma.
Gnana is to gain the relevant knowledge. Bhakti is understanding the knowledge gained. Karma is to live by Knowledge Gained and Understood. Gain the knowledge, understand the knowledge gained, and then progress in the path of Yoga Sadhana based on Knowledge Gained and Understood.
By following these three aspects we attain Moksha and Eventually Shunya.
