Jonathan Roof, an ardent devotee of Bhagawan Baba, dives into the ocean of Sai

teachings to pick up a few precious pearls of wisdom and advise, and encases

them with lucid introductions in this book aptly named as Pathways to God. This

book is a comprehensive guide for newcomers to Indian Culture and Spirituality

in the light of Bhagawan's teachings. It is also designed to serve as material

for study circles where a group of aspirants meet to discuss spiritual topics.

The twenty-seven topics presented such as meditation, service, peace, love,

etc., are of common interest to all seekers. The author minimises the use of

Sanskrit words to cater for those who are new to Indian spirituality.

References provided for further study and a set of questions at the end of each

topic will form basis for discussions. This valuable work is certain to open

pathways for readers into Bhagawan Sri Sathya Sai Baba's message bestowed upon

mankind through His discourses, writings and

conversations.

Back Cover

 

Here at last is a clear and accurate guide to the teachings of Sri Sathya Sai

Baba. Pathways to God presents these teachings according to topics such as

meditation, selfless service, peace, love, etc. Each topic is supported by

numerous quotations from the writings of Sathya Sai Baba.

Revered throughout the world for his miracles, love and service, Sathya Sai Baba

has become a legend in his own time. Never in modern history has a holy man

swept so fully into the life of seekers in all parts of the world. Indeed his

name and his message promise to bring about a new age in man’s spiritual

understanding.

Pathways to God provides the complete structure for an inspiring study circle.

The provocative questions and the extensive references at the end of each

chapter help clarify the reader’s understanding of the material. It is an

invaluable aid to the beginner as well as the advanced student.

"This book is a gold mine for anyone seeking to understand life and

spirituality. If indeed we can separate the two. Johathan Roof has provided us

with easy access to the teachings of Sathya Sai Baba. The topics he has chosen

are the ones that are commonly questioned by new aspirants as well as by

long-time seekers. Here we are given as opportunity to read about these topics

and a chance to continue our individual research through 'Reference Notations

for Further Study'".- Bea Flaig, Educator, EHV Staff Developer

"I personally enjoyed reading Pathways to God, and consider it a valuable

addition to the growing body of literature about Sai Teachings. The author

includes many quotations of Baba that clarify important points about how to

conduct a good Study Circle."- William M. Harvey
