“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 Sri Sathya Sai Baba

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.
