Guest guest Posted July 2, 2007 Report Share Posted July 2, 2007 Sai Ram to all the members of SAI. This is just to express my happiness that the Sai Youth, Patiala has come out and done something very noble in regrouping themselves in Bhagwan's mission. On the out set, let me tell that I do have lot of respect for the Sri Sathya Sai Seva Organization. But let us not be narrow minded thinkers that this alone is the way to Swami and any other way is false ! Sri Sathya Sai Seva Organization is just one of the media to serve, but if one can get a better option and organization, with all happiness one must proceed. After all the motive is to please Swami and not organization, right? This is actually a call and example to all the youths across the world that lets re-organize ourselves, our efforts, our strategies, our gameplan for a better and efficient seva experience. My hearty wishes to all its members and Jitu Bhaiyaa, I think I know you for I have seen you in Parthy, coming to school and talking with boys. You will do a great job and my prayers to Swami that let the noble initiative brightly shine in splendour in this year of Youth ! My standing ovation to all of you !

As Baba says, it is the very essence of Devotion, the very breath of Devotee, his very nature. It springs from the actual experience of the devotee, an experience that convinces him that all beings are GOD's children, that all bodies are altars (mandir/place of worship), where GOD is installed, that all places are HIS residences. Do not think Seva is to be rendered to the poor and downtrodden, real service is when it is rendered to a person or animal in immediate need without any motive of self gain and publicity. > > SAI is an effort to give something back to the society from which we have obtained everything; it's an effort not only to serve but also to inspire others for service. By way of selfless service, an ordinary human (Manishi) get transformed into Maharishi (a sage). Truly speaking, the merit that can be obtained from selfless service can not be acquired even from the practice of most difficult sadhanas. Service brings human beings closer to each other and promotes affection and friendship. Without this friendship and feeling of Love for one's fellow men, one can not attain intimacy to Lord. Selfless service is the purpose for which man has been given Life. This feeling of selfless service should flow through his nerves and blood stream and irrigate every cell of his body. The basis of selfless service is selfless Love. So, let us join hands together to cultivate these qualities and be eligible to be called a true devotee of Bhagwan Sri Sathya Sai Baba. Fill every act of > yours with Love. Let no one suffer the slightest pain as a result of your thought, word and deed. It will surely help you to achieve the Goal of self realization. > > PUT APART I (As Baba explains meaning of Puttaparthy) : To join SAI, only one thing has to be parted with, and that is I, the ego. Ego is the major hurdle in a Sadhak's progress. To render selfless service and cultivate selfless Love, we have to PUT APART I. > > Bhagwan Sri Sathya Sai Baba is the Leader and Guide of SAI, there would be no President or any post of authority. Becoming members of SAI is not gaining authority over someone, but it is to realize your own responsibilities. All members would be called " saisewak " and each member would play active and equal role in service, no less and no more. > > Kindly read objectives of SAI thoroughly before joining. SAI is purely based on teachings and principles laid down by Bhagwan Sri Sathya Sai Baba. It is not officially related to any Sai Organization or Sri Sathya Sai Central Trust till now. > > Objectives of the Organisation > The principal objectives of Service and Inspiration( SAI) are: > 1.
