Sai Baba was a famous spiritual teacher. He changed the lives of many individuals who met him and kept on doing so for those whose hearts were touched by his affection. Sai Baba did not come exclusively to lecture but rather to awaken humankind through his messages of adoration. According to accounts from his life, he preached the importance of realization of the self and criticized love towards perishable things. His teachings concentrate on a moral code of love, forgiveness, helping others, charity, contentment, inner peace, and devotion to God.

Glad you enjoyed the article Anagha
Yes! His quotes are very relaxing indeed
AHHH, I enjoyed seeing Baba’s quotes. He was my living spiritual teacher. I visited Puttaparthi and Brindavan four times over the 80s and 90s, and feel blessed to have experienced him firsthand. He really was surprising, mysterious, fun-loving at times, all-knowing, and love incarnate. I am writing a book inspired by one of his very quotes about life. He was so clever with his words and messages. He wanted everyone to be a leader, first a leader of himself, and then in ways to help the world in some manner. He taught a practical spirituality, one he wanted people to apply in the everyday world, not hidden away in some cave or ashram. -Wishing you total life success at all levels, Asad. Sai Ram, as they would say at the ashram.
