For the first time, this is a brand new 'Simplified' edition of Sri Sai Sat Charitra. Gunaji's edition has been simplified and retold to make it easy. This includes making the language simpler, explaining the background and concepts mentioned in the original text, splitting the chapters into smaller sections as well as adding questions and answers.
Sri Sai Charitra is a guidebook to help you start on an amazing spiritual journey of self discovery with Sai Baba. Sai Baba lived in Shirdi, India in the late 18th and early 19th century. Countless miracles were experienced by his followers and devotees during this period. Even today, devotees all over the world continue to experience such miracles simply by mentally praying to Sai Baba.
Sai Baba has an unlimited treasure trove of teachings to guide and help everyone on the path towards Spiritual Enlightenment. These are the same teachings found in the Hindu holy books of Vedas, Upanishads and Bhagavad Gita but in a much easier to understand way. Sri Sai Sat Charitra contains the miracles and teachings of Sai Baba.
It was written from 1922 to 1929 by Raghunath Govind Dabholkar aka Hemadpant after he personally experienced miracles of and received permission from Sai Baba of Shirdi. Nagesh Vasudev Gunaji translated Hemadpant's Marathi edition into English in 1944.
