Not to worry about exit of the soul and body of Shri Satya Sai Baba
Even the mountain of devotion is waste in the eyes of God if selfishness is present

We must not worry for the exit of the soul and body of Shri Satya Sai Baba. The body is visible and imaginable component. The soul is invisible but imaginable component. Both these components constitute the creation and can be treated as one component only. Soul is energy and body is the matter. Matter and energy are two phases of the same component called creation. The creator is the absolute God, who is invisible and unimaginable. The human incarnation is thus, a three component system of God, soul and body. It can be treated as a two component system also if the soul and body are treated as the two phases of the same component. The body decomposes into the original five elements. The soul is eternal with reference to the body. God is the absolute eternal entity. Neither God nor the soul and nor the body is lost. Only the shape of the body is lost in this world, which is also preserved in the energetic form in the upper world. Therefore, nothing is lost. Baba can appear in the same form through energetic body to the ardent devotees. We must follow the four principles preached by Baba (Shri Satya Sai Baba established the four pillars which are truth, Justice, peace and love in the context of pravrutti. The truth and justice result in eradication of corruption. Peace and love result in non-violence.

 Therefore, anti-corruption and non-violence are the two concluding words for the four pillars). At least, if we follow truth and justice, peace and love are the natural consequences.

The basis of violence is corruption. The basis of corruption is selfishness. Unless the selfishness is filtered from your devotion to God, the love in God towards you will not start. You think yourself as the top most devotee due to the quantity of your devotion. Even the mountain of devotion is waste in the eyes of God if selfishness is present. God always sees the quality of devotion.
