Shirdi Sai-man makea life in test tubes!!!

After lecturing and studying about the Human genome and attended the sessions my mind was reluctant to go into any other thing...So fascinating the life and science’s.I happen to read The Book”DNA The secret of life” by james D.Watson with Andrew Berry in that book under the chapter playing god: Customised DNA molecules....I happen to read an interesting thing as follows..
“Aurther kornberg was the first to“make life” in a test tube. In 1950’s as we have seen, he discovered DNA polymerase, the enzyme that replicates DNA though the formation of a complementary copy from an unzipped “parent” strand. Later he would work with the pair of viral DNA, he was ultimately able to induce the application of all the virus’s 5300 base pairs of DNA but the product was not alive. Though identical in DNA sequence to it’s parent, it was biologically inert. Something was missing. The missing ingredient would remain a mystery till 1967.When Martin Gellert at the national Institute of health and Bob Lehmann at standford simultaneously identified it. This enzyme as “ligase” Ligase made it possible to Glue the ends of the DNA molecules together...
Kornberg could replicate the viral DNA using DNA polymerase and by adding ligase, join the two ends together so that the entire molecule formed a continuous loop, just as it did in the original virus, this artificial viral DNA behaved like a original one as exactly, the virus normally multiplies in E.Coli and kornbergs test-tube DNA did that. using just a couple of enzymes, some basic chemical ingredients, and viral DNA from which to make the copy Koernberg had made a biologically active molecule. The media reported he had created life in a test tube...”
My.... it is now 2.30 nights I felt it is better to go to bed. Meanwhile I have totally left the night aarti about my sai unsung today
My sairam is great he will not take it otherwise He knows ultimately I am his child

Aum sairam.

Shirdi sai have you authored this book on genome?- Part IV

The secret of life is indeed a thread...the earth and ocean were probably peopled with vegetable productions long before other families of them, shall we conjecture that one and the same kind of the living filaments is and has been the cause of all organic life?
How can a filament make something live? Life is a slippery thing to define, but it consists of two very different skills, ability to replicate, and the ability to create order. Living things produce the approximate copies of themselves. Rabbits produce rabbits, dandelions produce dandelions, but rabbits do more than that. They eat grass transform themselves....
The key for both of these features of life is information. The ability to replicate is made possible by the existence of the recipe, the information to create a new body. A rabbit’s egg carries the instruction for assembling a new rabbit. But the ability to create order through metabolism also depends on information....
These pieces of information get transcribed translated and synthesis protein which is the actual dogma of molecular biology....as that of selection and sequencing in computer programming....One thing for sure every thing right from machine to man needs selection, sequencing and execution.....isn’t it program ultimately ?
Aum sairam

Shirdi sai have you authored this book on genome? - Part I










With the blessings of shirdi sai and praying to him I started my lecture in the big auditorium of 350 audiences belonging to various categories right from students to professors of various disciplines. Some are not scientist. I wanted one and all to know what I am talking about to make the Genome understandable and hence....

I started with a prelude about Scintillating Primo levi who did something similar with the periodic table of the elements in his autobiographical short stories. He related each chapter of his life to an element one that he had contacts with during the period he was describing.... The same way I read another interesting book on human Genome by Matt Ridley...In his book he says

“I began to think about the Human genome as a sort of autobiography. In its own right, A record written in “genitish,”of all the Vicissitudes and inventions that had characterized the history of our species and its ancestors since the very dawn of life.
Modern genetics is a formidable thicket of jargons.
The human body contains approximately 100 trillion cells. Most of them are less than a tenth of millimeter across. Inside each cell there is a black blob called a Nucleus. Inside the Nucleus are two complete sets of Human genome (Excepting in egg and sperm which has one and red blood cells which has none).One set of genome comes from the mother and other by the father. We are the result after swapping bits of the paternal and maternal chromosomes Called recombination

There are twenty three chapters, called CHROMOSOMES

Each chapter contains several thousands stories, called GENES

Each story is made up of paragraphs, called EXONS which are

Interrupted by advertisements called INTRONS

Each paragraph is made up of words, called CODONS

Each word is written is letters called BASES

There are one billion words in the book that means it makes it as long as 800 bibles. If I read the genome out to you @ one word per second for 8 hrs a day It would take me a centaury to finish reading the book If I write out the Human Genome @one letter per minute, my text would be as long as the river Danube...

After talking on the Human Genome I came and sat amidst a good applause. I was happy that many could appreciate...But I never did aarti to my sai yesterday that was working in my mind....totally into vingjnana (Science) ...that fascinated me....it is all like addiction. Some people get caught in agnana (not good action) and my sai who is a meignani (person with inner knowledge) will he relish it?

My sai only knows...

Shirdi sai answer my question?











To get acquainted with Saibaba was no where in my life till I was fourteen. He was no where in my thoughts till then. But Today, I cannot imagine my life or my thought process without him. My sai...I can think of only sai and nothing else but his glory. I always think why such situation has arisen in my life. Whatever I think or whatever I do in the mundane or on a purely mental plane his thoughts appear quietly in the background of my mind. He appears in one form or other very near me. Sometimes, with the torn kafni which he was said to be perennially don. That image will remain for long, disturbing my worldly routine. How so ever I would like to separate my consciousness from him, it is not possible, he will not leave me however I am. It is really very difficult to shed him....very addictive. At times I have tried my level best to go away to some other place to get rid of him..in early days. but Impossible it was. Either he will appear in one form or the other either stuck at the back of a car or somebody I can hear calling him “sairam” which will make me turn back. Shirdi sai amazingly loves, very understanding anyone cannot forget him once they experience him. But how come he came into my program? Why did he come? Who is he? Why I cannot live without the thought of this fakir. He is beyond comprehension. He is all in all in my breath and soul. I will die once he leaves me... The day he leaves me is the day of my brain death. But I want reason sai? That is why I asked who are you in me? I want the reason sai...and the reason of my own existence...I know, you know me better than what I know about me....but you have to answer me my dear sai...you have to...

Aum sairam

Shirdi Sai taught me the Karma theory on this Christmas Eve 2007


I am very much confused.....two incidences which I saw on this Christmas day ....I am not able to concentrate reading my saibible....Sai Satcharita.....My though went back again to the two events....I saw a small child and her family performing entertainment show on the road when I was going for a walk so talented and a gymnast we do watch high tech shows in the Television but this road show was very impressive...I asked her name she said sai pooja from Madhya Pradesh...the child is made to rope walk in the street...no safety measures and the whole family livelihood depends on such risks....our walking session was about 8 kilometers that day....My husband and me were walking together and in the 7th kilometer we happen to pass the citi centre Chennai...we went inside the centre....what a gala celebration it was of course Christmas eve 2007....My husband asked me to take a clipping of the events...and said” did you noticeda.... we saw a child walking on the rope and here we see different segment of the society"......
agash......yaa....Some children has to rope walk for their livelihood and some children have cake walk life.....this is working on my mind sai...it is working too much on my mind....

I slowly relaxed and again concentrated reading the sai bible ....I prayed...closed my eyes and opened the sai satcharita and the page was 139 and the chapter XXVI and the message was as below....

Mr. Ambadekar

Mr. Gopal Narayan Ambadekar of Poona was a devotee of Baba. He served for ten years in the Abkari department in the Thana District and in Javhar state, from where he had to retire. He tried to get some other job, but he did not succeed. He was overtaken by other calamities and his condition grew from bad to worse. He passed 7 years in this condition, visiting Shirdi every year and placing his grievance before Baba. In 1916 his plight became worst and be decided to commit suicide in Shirdi. So he came there with his wife and stayed for two months. One night while sitting in a bullock cart in front of Dixit's Wada, he resolved to end his life by throwing himself into a well close by. He proposed to do one way but Baba wished to do something else. A few paces from this place, there was a hotel and its proprietor Mr. Sagun, a devotee of Baba, came out and accosted him thus - "Did you ever read this Akkalkotkar Maharaja's life?" Ambadekar took that book from Sagun and began to read it. Casually, or we may say providentially he came across a story which was to this effect. - During the life time of Akkalkotkar Maharaj a certain devotee suffered very much from an incurble disease and when he could endure the agony and pain no longer, be became desperate and to end his miseries threw himself one night into a well. Immediately the Maharaj came there and took him out with his own hands and advised him thus - "You must enjoy the fruit - good or bad - of your past actions; if the enjoyment be incomplete, suicide won't help you. You have to take another birth and suffer again; so instead of killing yourself, why not suffer for some time and finish up your store of the fruit of your past deeds and be done with it once and for all?"

Reading this appropriate and timely story, Ambadekar was much surprised, and moved. Had he not got Baba's hint through the story, he would have been no more. On seeing Baba's all-prevasiveness and benevolence, his faith in Him was confirmed, and he became a staunch devotee. His father was a devotee of Akkalkotkar Maharaj and Sai Baba wanted him to walk into his father's footsteps and continue his devotion to Him. He then got Sai Baba's blessings and his prospects began to improve. He studied astrology and gained proficiency in it and thereby improved his lot. He was able to earn sufficient money and passed his after-life in ease and comfort.”

After reading this I realized Baba sayings...”One has definitely to reap the results of one’s own deeds(Karmas.Results of past karma(both good and bad) are repeated here. One may become even a “Chandala” based on past karma.There is nothing like repentance to lesson its impact. The pilgrimage to holy places and baths in holy rivers reduce karma to some extent. Visit to tombs(Samadhi)of holy people(Maha purushas)reduce some karma,as these places sanctified their presence....Know first what karma is, it is that which imparts natural livelihood for all living beings....your freedom is only in performing karma. You have no business with its rewards...those who perform karma with anticipating rewards are delinquents.....Your rebirth is of two kinds. first controlling the mind with sensory organs(jnana Indriyas) and second performing karma with bodily organs(karmendryas) without aspiring for the fruits. If performed this way. it equals who do not do any karma....Those who translate shirdi sai’s preaching into action in their day today lives without jealousy and with utmost faith and devotion shall be liberated from bondages of karma...

Sai I realize why you made me to see the rope walk and cake walk lifestyles

Aum sairam
