Student: That's why you waited like when you did that thing with the fire, you waited the right moment - then you stuck your hand in the fire - it's not burning, then cutting.
Swami: No need to wasting of the energy, no need to wasting of the time, no need to wasting of attention, no need to play with the games with the Five Elements. Even Shirdi Baba, it's a funny… even you read the story of his life… one of his devotee lady having a baby and she's working. Unfortunately she stands up, the baby started to fall down into the fire. In Dwarkamai… she shouted in her village, “Baba, help my baby!” That baby's going to fall in her home, in fire! Baba, he's in front of fire working… He recognized, then he putted in his fire, then he pulled out - he pulled out with that energy. That baby, in her home, that baby came out again in her hands!
You read the story? It means that same fire it is here. That's the same fire is in her home -the same energy. He got injured, all his hand with the crazy and having bandage, suffering for few days, few weeks and he helped her - he got that pain. All students is asking, “Hey Baba you are avadhoot, avatar, how got you burn?” Oh yeah, yeah, simply I have to accept the Five Elements, simply I have to accept the God energy - I'm a son of the God - He's a great, he's incredible master. The karma is natural to anybody - he has to take it, he has to burn it. Just he took this form of the pain - it's fine.
But the same Baba when the food is cooking - huge terrible heat - he putted his hand, making twinkling in the hand in the hot pot. To the understanding the people - definitely he's crazy, he's playing lot of tricks and games to misunderstand the students. You have to understand very carefully. In the terrible hot pot, putting his hand, same time he got the injuring with the fire - isn't it crazy? You accept that? I never think on him to understand. Why I got wasting of my time - you are there, you are great, fine, you're the big boss, I'm so happy - no more tricks on me, be happy, simple one word, one commitment. ~ November 1999
