Saturday, June 1, 2013

Sai Gita, Bhagawan’s doted pet elephant, was…and is…undoubtedly one of the most exalted devotee of The Lord, whose dedication and devotion was hailed by Bhagawan, lavishly in public, asking men to follow her exemplary path…On 22nd May 2007 Sai Gita’s soul chose to fly free…to continue to ring out its melody…in the etheric sky…to merge forever with Beloved Mother Sai… Living her life full, with one-pointed devotion to Mother Sai, this Little Princess had left her footprints in the heart of her Beloved Master and thus would ever be remembered as the foremost of His devotees.
