A Model Prayer to Mother Sai

Mother Sai,

We are all children within Thy womb. As the mother lovingly bears the hammerings of the embryo, Thou, too, in Thy supreme patience and compassion, dost put up with the painful knocks we give Thee by our misdeeds. Thou art the mother cheerfully doing everything only for our sake, Thy children.

As Mother Durga, Thou dost drive away our difficulties and protect us;

As Mother Saraswathi, endowest us with wisdom;

As Mother Lakshmi, givest us the treasure of wealth in correct measure;

As Mother Annapoorna, fondly dost feed us.

Even without our entreaties, children that we are, Thou wilt bless us of Thy own accord, with the right things at the right time. However, for our own satisfaction we pray. Pray, feed us with the dishes of devotion for the heart and victuals of wisdom for the brain. Grant us the vision to realize that Thou art the one power immanent everywhere in everything.
