Eternal Truths Should Form The Subject Of Books

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

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.

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 »

Playful pranks of our Beloved Bhagawan, if one could call it so, was very much a part of His Story, all through, even after He chose to hide from the public view…The Lord Who started His ‘visiting cards’ in a unique, inimitable fashion, by producing Vibhuti out of thin air with circular hand movements, innovated a new style during the mid-eighties of His Avataric life, by throwing Vibhuti packets to devotees, students…His chosen ones…Moving along the pathway granting darshan He would do it quite often…picking up a packet from His lap and throw unto a selected one…and while onstage, He would do the same with His group of boys… read more »
