"A Practical God A Divine Soul who came to the earth as a Human Being, lived as a KARMYOGI, spoke as a PROPHET, taught like JESUS, served as BUDDHA, and left this world as SAI BABA – THE GOD OF MILLIONS! He had said, “When I will no more be in the body, my bones will speak to you from the Mahasamadhi, whenever you call me with love and faith.” Sai Baba still keeps His promise. You will hear Him speak to you within; you will find Him always beside you, extending His hand to you for your help; and believe me, you will never find yourself alone at times of crises. Sai Baba is a God who is practically yours – always – if you have faith in HIM.

Sai Baba of Shirdi is a phenomenon. In all of India s history, there has never been another like him.

He performed miracles but in no manner or means to impress anyone, devotees or otherwise. Sai Baba in every way remains unique. He came in his late twenties to Shirdi, an insignificant Hamlet in Ahmednagar District where he spent fifty years of his remaining life. Shirdi is no longer an obscure village. Today it is a centre of pilgrimage for lakhs of Sai Baba s devotees. This book translated into Hindi is a complete account of his life and mission.Hindi Rs. 95 / Telugu Rs. 125
