#SriSathyaSai #SaiBaba #PrasanthiNilayam #RadioSai #RadioSaiLive "Bhajans Saved Me From Depression" https://youtu.be/k1SM2S1aS0o In the current age and times, there is no better panacea to redeem our lives than Namasmarana, Bhagawan has reiterated this any number of times. And the melodious and magical way of doing this sadhana is bhajans. Doing bhajans is not just a spiritual exercise, infact in it are the solutions to our everyday problems. It can indeed be the sheet anchor which can keep us afloat as we struggle through the turbulent crests and troughs of our modern existence. Tata Sai Pravan, a member of the Shivam Bhajan Group, Hyderabad, has experienced this in his life as he went through a series of failures during his student years. In this episode of OMS, he shares what helps him survive and thrive in today’s world of overwhelming challenges.

Discussion on Discourse 11 (May 31, 1991) Among the thousands of discourses delivered by Bhagawan Sri Sathya Sai Baba, those that He gave as part of the Summer Course series are remarkably special. They are focused on specific spiritual themes, and as they are for youngsters, the elucidation is gradual. In this series, members of Radio Sai and some senior devotees, go through the discourses delivered as part of the 1991 Summer Course Series. 'Shravanam Mananam Nidhidhyasanam' which can be translated as 'Listen, Reflect and Assimilate' is a Vedantic edict to the spiritual aspirant on how the Supreme Truths are to be approached and absorbed. In this series, short clips of the discourses are listened to and reflected upon, with the prayer that the assimilation happens.

Every Birthday of Bhagawan has been a watershed moment filled with scenes of compassion in action, unfolding of the chapters of Divine benedictions, and revelations of powerful messages to fast-track our journey towards self-realisation. This Satsang takes you to the glorious Birthday Moments of 1990-91, the period that saw the unfurling of a magnificent facet of His mission with the setting up of the first Super Specialty Hospital in Puttaparthi—the Sri Sathya Sai Institute of Higher Medical Sciences, Prasanthigram. How did this nearly 27,000 square metres of build-up edifice get erected in 6 months? How did sophisticated equipment arrive at this spot when Puttaparthi did not even have good roads? How could the institution offer such high-quality tertiary care when there was not even a good medical shop in this town then? And what lessons can we all derive from this incredible story of His Divine will and love in motion? This Satsang offers you some insights into this beautiful saga of His story.

This is a discussion on 'Prema Vahini', the volume written by Bhagawan Sri Sathya Sai Baba which initially appeared as a series of articles in Sanathana Sarathi - the ashram monthly magazine from Prasanthi Nilayam, Puttaparthi.

The Gita Series - A triune pilgrimage - 156 - Ch 11 - Slokas 37 to 39 नमो नमस्तेऽस्तु सहस्रकृत्वः पुनश्च भूयोऽपि नमो नमस्ते "Salutations! Salutation be to You a thousand times; salutation to You again and again! Salutation!"

Not Just Asking, Even Acceptance is Prayer In this episode of OMS, Dr R Subramanian, former Assistant Professor in SSSIHL who has served in Bhagawan’s university for more than four decades, recalls a telling incident from the early 90s when Bhagawan saved his father’s life who was almost on his deathbed. The way Swami gave him a new lease of life is powerful and profound because Bhagawan used this opportunity to instil deep lessons in Dr Subramanian’s heart - learnings which shaped him to be a beautiful instrument in His hands.

There is 'Sathya' in Bhagawan's name not because He always speaks the Truth but because what He speaks is the Truth. He is indeed Truth personified. Sometimes when He says something, it might seem completely contrary to our understanding of the situation. But when one dwells deep and prays sincerely for guidance, the Lord does bestow on us the right understanding so that we can decipher his message for us in the right way and then take corrective action which will take us closer to Him. Neeraj Acharya, an alumnus of Bhagawan's university who also had the chance to work in the Sri Sathya Sai Central Trust for over 17 years, in this episode of OMS, recalls one such life-changing interaction with Bhagawan that not only taught him the true meaning of Bhagawan's saying - "I give you what you want so that you may want what I truly want to give you", but also filled him with great peace, contentment and gratitude when he realised how the Divine Master had so beautifully transformed one of his little shortcomings into a blessing and a boon. OMS' is an 'Oh My Sai' series wherein we plan to offer 100 such OMS videos as we march towards Bhagawan's 100th Birthday to be celebrated on Nov 23, 2025.

The Pinnacle of My Life’s Experience was the Unity Cup “A chess player in the guise of an off-spinner” – that is how E A S Prasanna is often described. He was Indian cricket’s finest bowler in the 1960s and 70s and was awarded Padma Shri by the Government of India in 1970. In 2004, the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) decorated him with the C K Nayudu Lifetime Achievement Award, the highest honour bestowed by BCCI on any former player. However, for Mr Prasanna, the pinnacle of his life's experiences is the opportunity Bhagawan blessed him with to be part of the Sri Sathya Sai Unity Cup which was held in Prasanthi Nilayam in 1997. In this conversation recorded with him in Oct 2024, he fondly recalls those nine months of 1997 as a 'miracle' when he saw how mysteriously Bhagawan worked through him to get the incredible done in the Hill View Stadium at Puttaparthi. Swami indeed had been preparing him for this right from the 1970s and was visibly and invisibly directing the course of his life, he confides and adds that even now, it is Swami alone who is His greatest God, Guide and Goal.
