Sathya Sai Baba was a spiritual leader who inspired millions to lead a moral and meaningful life even as they followed the religion of their choice.

Sathya Sai Baba was the embodiment of divine qualities whom the devotess hold in the highest steem. He was no less than a god for his devotess. He was also considered as the incarnation of Sai Baba on the earth.

It is a matter of faith of the people who paid obeisanceto him like god. He taught the people how to live the life of high values, brotherhood and affection irrespective of the caste , creed and community they belong to.

Sathya Sai Baba in his earthly life of 85 years has done yeoman’s service for the poor people in the field of education and health. In Puttaparthy of Andhra Pradesh, he has established his Ashram where people from all corners of the nation and across the world flock to seek his blessing. He has opened super speciality hospital, school , college and university.

His devotess have unshkeable faith in him. The blessings he gave to his devotess always turned out to be true. That is why they treat him as living god on the earth. He was above everything and always worked for the upliftment of the poor people, though among his devotees come big, famous and general people .

After the month long illness, he died on Sunday. He was so respected and revered personality that his death plunged all his devotess into gloom. Some of his devotess still believe that Sathya Sai Baba would again re-appear among them and continue to guide them all their life. We pay highest respect to Sathya Sai Baba. We have been deeply pained by his death. Sathya Sai Baba is in our heart.
