In a world that is plunged head-long into materialism, man should not lose his hope, but should strive with more vigour and unflinching faith to achieve his goal – humanity’s collective goal… Sai Rama Rajya… a world of Truth and Righteousness… Sathya Sai Is The Answer… and ‘Samastha Lokah…’ is the tool for today’s problems… Commemorating the grand occasion of the birth of the Cosmic Maha Mantra, that emanated from Bhagawan on August 31, 2008, …a poetic supplication from Sri Jullie Chaudhuri echoing Bhagawan’s message of “Samastha Lokah….” read more »

Eternal Truths Should Form The Subject Of Books
Sunday, August 24, 2014
Blessing the Book Trust on August 24, 2007 Bhagawan gave an exhilarating Divine Discourse, outlining the roles and responsibilities for the publihing house, publishing good books taking Eternal Truths to the masses, to the devoted ones.
All the former students who are working here are discharging their duties with steadfastness and devotion. It is because of their hard work that this Book Stall has made great progress. It is not enough if you merely bring out books; you should put into practice what is given in the books. You should understand and assimilate all the teachings that are contained in the books and practise them. Pustaka (book), Mastaka (head) and Hasta (hand) should be in harmony. read more »

That Touch Of Golden Grace
Sunday, August 24, 2014
24 August 2007 shines forth as a red letter day, further imbued with the exhilarating colours of the rainbow, in the annals of Sri Sathya Sai Books & Publications Trust, as the Lord of the Universe graciously decreed to bless this Institution on this date. The portals of the SSSBPT acquired a most privileged status by the sacrosanct touch of Bhagawan’s cherished Lotus Feet, on that wondrous morning.
During that period of time, the prevalent custom was to pray for Divine blessings on the anniversary day, imploring Bhagawan to speak to His selected band of students. Thus, that particular year too, on 23rd August 2007, the members of the staff (most of them students from Bhagawan’s Institute) along with the Convener, with a fervent appeal in each heartbeat, traced their footsteps to His Divine Abode, seeking His amaranthine benevolence. …And Lo! The group was called in! read more »
