Sai Organization - Devotional Services
"Devotion
is one of the three wings of the Sai Organization
(the other two being selfless service (seva) and
education in human values). This page will discuss
various aspect of the devotion program, which
includes devotional singing (bhajans), study
circles, prayers, and meditation."
- Bhagavan Sathya Sai Baba, Sathya Sai Speaks Vol.X, p.84
Devotional Activities
The Sathya Sai Baba Organization
provides many activities for participants to enable
them to achieve the goal of life. Common to all
activities, (service, spiritual effort and education
in human values) is the cultivation of the
understanding of our own nature, and of our goal in
life. Both these aims are achieved in the Sai
Organization by strengthening our capacity to love
all people in every different station in life, and
to love people of different races, castes, creeds
and religions.
To this end, in the Sai Organization,
the spiritual wing provides spiritual activities
such as devotional singing, weekly readings from Sai
literature, study circle and reflection, meditation,
regional workshops on various spiritual topics, the
company of the good and godly, prayers and unity of
faiths events.
Take up Spiritual Activity
Sathya Sai Baba advises us that it
is our duty to take up spiritual activities and to
show the rising generation of youth by our lives
that spiritual effort and study have made us more
joyful and courageous in the adventure called life.
Children and youth learn from the behavior of
parents, and always imitate their elders. A good
example by their elders leads to this behavior being
emulated by the children.
Sai Baba teaches us that it is the responsibility of
all pious men and women, parents and grandparents,
to demonstrate in and through their lives that piety
is not weakness but strength; that it opens up a
vast spring of power and that a person with faith in
God can overcome obstacles much more easily than a
person who does not have faith in God.
