Advent of Sathya Sai Baba.
      Sathya Sai Baba was born on 23 November 1926 in a romote village called Puttaparthi, in the satate of Andhra Pradesh in India. He is the fourth child of a humble and pious couple and was named Sathya Narayana Raju. Evvn as a child, He displayed superhuman powers. In May 1940, at the age of 14, He disclised that He is the reincarnation of Shridi Sai Baba. This Sai Baba of Shirdi, though a hindu brahmin by  birth, lived the life of a muslim fakir in the village of Shridi, in the state of Maharastra in Western India.. Shirdi Sai  Baba laid the foundation for Hindu - Muslim unity in Northern India by the example of Hs life and activities. Before His death in 1918, He prophesised that He would reincarnate 8 years later. In october 1940, Sathya Narayana Raju announced that He is "Sathya Sai Baba" and that He was leaving His parebts as his devotees were waiting for him. Sathya Sai Baba left His home and began His teaching.

       In 1945, His devotees began the construction of the Mandir (tample) and residential buildings for an Ashram ( a retreat) about a mile away from His village. He named this Ashram "Prasanthi nilayam" (Adobe of Supreme Peace). Today thousands of Sai devotees (spiritual aspirants) converge at this divine centre, Prasanthi nilayam.
Sathya Sai Baba has descended as an Avatar for all mankind and not for any particular community, religion or interest. His teachings are universal and not sectarian. Devotees, seekers and abhernts of all faiths from all nationalities and countries find their way to Prasanthi nilayam driven by the quiet conviction that they have to encounter the Avatar and receive His Darshan ( divine sight with blessings).
