Sri Sathya Sai Baba is one of the most revered spiritual teachers in the world. He is believed to be a divine incarnation by his followers who come from all faiths and races. He proclaimed His message – to bring about the spiritual regeneration of humanity by demonstrating and teaching the highest principles of Truth, Right Conduct, Peace, Love, and Nonviolence.

By personal example, Sri Sathya Sai Baba has inspired and continues to inspire millions of followers throughout the world to the ideal that service to man is service to God. His numerous service projects, be it free hospitals, free schools and free education (schools & colleges), free drinking water supply projects, or free housing projects, or disaster relief operations, all stand testimony to His selfless love and compassion especially for the needy and less privileged.

The Sri Sathya Sai International Organisation founded by Sri Sathya Sai Baba has a presence in more than 160 countries and its members undertake many service activities that benefit their immediate communities.

Sri Sathya Sai Baba remains a living presence, an inspiration, a guide, and most of all a cherished, endearing and intimately felt divinity in the hearts of millions who know Him.
