SAIBABA - a spiritual and scientific magazine to gain Knowledge and to strengthen the faith


"GOD exits. I have complete faith."

Is this enough to have faith and does not try to understand more about HIM and follow what HE said? Do we need to understand the objectives of this wonderful creation?

Having faith does not mean that we should not question with a purpose to understand more about the Lord or Eternal Truth. This is infact the right way rather than following blindly. Today, the generation does not understand the customs or the methods of prayer and such. Everyone is turning out to be a blind follower. We do not even know why we need to go to a place of worship often, what should be our mental state when we are going, what should we do when we are there. Instead of digging deeper like a true seeker, we shy away from even talking about GOD.

Desire & Fear - The Lords of every house?

Life is very interesting, if one cares to take keen interest in it

For those, who pass time, calling it living, many things escape our "beautiful" closed eyes. Or we let them pass-by thinking they are irrelevant. But again, we run to seek peace and happiness, while just by opening eyes would tell us where they are.

Irony of life is - whenever one thinks " I want....", what follows this is - "what if I lose...?". The follower is always humble and never raising its voice, however, present always like a shadow. At certain critical times in life, the humble servant becomes our master and controls our destiny.

The Way of Sai Master

What does one want in life?

Peace and happiness.

And to continuously be in that state. However, majority of mankind does not understand those two words, otherwise, they would be seeking answers for those. Even though we live in a society, as an individual we need to think about attaining that state. Then only, collectively, the society can gain that state. Otherwise, chaos prevails in the society.

A Great day on the horizon - October 30, 2011

As we are moving towards historically important year, 2013, named as " Sri Bharadwaja Prabhanjana samvatsaram", to commemorate the most important milestones of every follower of Sai Master, the 75th birthday of Pujya Acharya Sri Ekkirala Bharadwaja, that date will also start becoming a major milestone in everybody's life, spiritually, from now on. Divyajanani Ammagaru has given a parayana method to all Sai Master devotees to ensure they stay spiritually focused to celebrate this historic day and if possible to enable few to awaken spiritually. (page 30 of http://saibharadwaja.org/magazines/saibaba201105May.pdf). In an effort to support the big cause, and to enable people to get in to the groove, from this year, few simple dikshas are being given for short bursts of time.

Sai Master – a rare persona !

The thought that rises in the mind of one who has Sri Sai in every breath and is immersed in HIS bhakti can turn the universal power in its favour to implement it successfully. That thought does not need any other blessings – Sri Swami Purnananda.

Anyone who had the fortune of meeting Sai Master, will remember his energy and his single minded focus on explaining about Sri Shirdi Sai Baba. On a single day, multiple times, he spoke on Sai Baba with the same freshness says Ammagaru.

Understanding the supranatural force – the science way

A continuous debate ensues between atheists and theists. Due to the individual's inability to understand the totality of creation, this chasm continues to widen and it has turned in to a fad to say - I do not believe in GOD. Aside from true atheists like Sai Master - before he attained Siddhi through the grace of Shirdi Sai Baba, there is no one who can prove the non-existence of a Supranatural force, which many call by various names, viz., GOD, Almighty, Eternal Truth etc..

Pujya Acharya Sri Ekkirala Bharadwaja, in his search for eternal truth, penned one fine book, named VIGNANA VEECHIKALU (Breezes of Knowledge).

Panacea to diminishing humanity – Sri Sai Leelamrutam

Don’t just read. Understand, contemplate and follow”.

While Shirdi Sai Baba said this while talking to V H Thakur about holy book “Vichara Sagaram”, the same holds true about Sri Sai Leelamrutam. On the occasion of Vijayadasami, the day Sri Sai Baba took Mahasamadhi, it is appropriate to think of this holy book.

At a time, when human values are being questioned, generations are searching for the meaning and purpose of life, this holy book appears as the only panacea.

Vijayadasami and Acharya Sri Ekkirala Bharadwaja


Jai Sai Master !

Today, October 6th, 2011, is Vijayadasami - the day Baba attained Mahasamadhi. What needs to be remembered today in 1918 Baba did His 'seemolanghan' as predicted by a year before His Mahasamadhi. 

In the chapter, "At the threshold of Eternity", in Sai Baba The Master, by Pujya Acharya Sri Ekkirala Bharadwaja, these details are beautifully mentioned. The book can be read online on www.saibharadwaja.org

Importance of "Sri Gurucharitra - the holy book"

Ours is a wonderful creation. It is still being explored and understood using science which is rapidly progressing. Yet we are encountering more questions than answers in every sense as we dig deeper. Across the world, if one observes closely, there is the only other way of understanding this vast and mysterious creation- the Occidental way i.e.,  the scriptures and teachings of Great Souls help us to understand thees most fundamental questions:

1)      Nature of Creation and human being
2)      Nature of the ETERNAL TRUTH which can be called in many ways, which I will refer to as ALL PERVADING or GOD.

The human being, endowed with a beautiful instrument called “Buddhi” or “power to think”, has time and again tried to use it to gain supremacy over all other beings, objects and the way this nature functions, but has failed miserably. There are many proofs which show that some supranatural force acts decisively, whenever this buddi deviates beyond a threshold causing destruction to the society.
