Sacrifice Animal Qualities, Not Animals…
Monday, November 12, 2012
Living in a progressive modern world, man is still to evolve justifying his status, among creation, bestowed upon him by the Creator. Unaware of the gross sin being committed man , even today, is a slave to his passion for flavour of flesh appeasing his taste buds. If we do not rein in our intent, posthate, it would be bit too late, comments Sri Jullie Chaudhuri writing on all that Bhagawan has taught us about Care for life, Concern for Nature and Respect/Reverence for all of Creation. read more »

Dil Without Bill…
Saturday, November 10, 2012
‘Love All, Serve All’… ‘Help Ever, Hurt Never…’ Words that appear so simple, but like innumerable other messages of Bhagawan, they have a profound meaning and a deep impact on the lives of His devotees. Following the example He has set with His life – of reaching out to whosoever is in need of help – the Sri Sathya Sai Seva Organisation is immersed in constant service activities vis-à-vis – Mother & Child Care, Mobile Medical Service, Education In Human Values, Sri Sathya Sai Bal Vikas and many other such related undertakings. The ultimate purpose of working towards this upliftment of mankind and that of all other beings is linked with transformation – that of our hearts, our souls, our lives. Taking a step forward in this direction, the SSSSO Maharashtra and Goa has organised a Free Heart Diagnostic Camp, under the banner ‘Dil Without Bill’, recently in the Divine Abode, Dharmakshetra, Mumbai. A Report on the unique initiative. read more »

Sathya Sai Remembers His Kamandala ‘In Shirdi…’
Thursday, November 8, 2012
Did Bhagawan in the old days ever describe any episode from the life of Shirdi Sai Baba? Though there are plenty of such references, directly from Bhagawan, throwing light into the Oneness of both the Avatars, sometimes He makes it unique and more interesting, involving some devotees, leaving an eternal impression in ‘His-Story,’ proving the Oneness. read more »

Master The Mind, Be A Mastermind…
Tuesday, November 6, 2012
Profound aphorisms or mahavakyas given by Bhagawan are not mere combination of words, but tools helping sincere practitioners to introspect, to bring in greater awareness and thus help elevating to higher levels of consciousness. It would be interesting to know the naive perceptions of the ‘little hearts’ from Sri Sathya Sai Primary School, perceptions on some of the most often heard Sai Mahavakyas. Twelve year old N Anirudh writes about Master The Mind, Be A Mastermind. read more »

From Tragedy To Truth…
Monday, November 5, 2012
How often we point a finger at, questioning Him, The Lord, making Him responsible for so called oddities in our lives? Seldom do we understand or fathom Divine intricacies, God’s finite details, that shape the course of our lives. Here is an amazing story of transformation, from being a critic to a disciplined follower of Bhagawan! The story narrates a remarkable instance of a young man who came from Lucknow to attend the Summer Course at Brindavan in 1979. Written by Ajay Pant, extracted from Sanathana Sarathi archivals.

Saved by a Photograph…
Thursday, November 1, 2012
God, Who verily responds to a sincere prayer seeking His Divine protection, does come to the aid of a devotee, apparently without any direct calling. Call it great good fortune or a gentle tap from the Greater Heaven, bailing him out of an apparent danger, God does it while remaining behind the curtain, projecting His mysterious visiting cards…an interesting episode from Sri KR Vasudevan, formerly Editor, Dinamani Kadir, Chennai. read more »
