How to Awaken the Guru Within | Guru Poornima Special | Satsang from Prasanthi Nilayam

As we approach one of the most significant festivals of the Prasanthi calendar, the Guru Poornima celebrations, we revisit Bhagawan's definition of a 'Guru', the significance of having such a Guru on the spiritual path and, most importantly, how do we acquire one? In this study circle, we also remind ourselves of the great good fortune of having the Lord Himself as the Guru, and how we can earn the gracious guidance of the Supreme Sadguru even today.

How Swami Intervened and I Was Born | Laksh Pande | OMS Episode - 51/100

As we await for the Akshadi celebrations this year, Laksh Pande, a third year engineering student from Mumbai, recounts two earlier Ashadi festivals in Prasanthi Nilayam that were life-altering for him in several ways.

Running Miles for Swami's Smiles | CG Vijay Sankar | OMS Episode - 50/100

Becoming a student in Bhagawan’s school in Prasanthi Nilayam in 1993 was for Vijay Sankar the way to unlock several dimensions of his personality that he had not known and discovered. And all these facets of his life found expression here not because he wanted to excel in anything, it happened because all he wanted to do was love Swami more and explore every avenue to be close to Him and be with Him as much as possible.

Like it is for many Sai youth, for Mrutyunjaya Dash too, it was a dream to become a student in Bhagawan's university. His penance and pining did finally bear fruit.

The new vistas of life that opened up within him during those two years of being in Prasanthi Nilayam has defined everything he has done since then.

Three Powerful Management Lessons I Learnt from Swami | OMS Episode - 28/100

Yeshab Giri had never imagined that he would become a student at Bhagawan's college. If someone had told him then that one day he would be a management graduate and a leader in the corporate world, he would have simply laughed it off as meaningless prattle. However if today he serves as the Chief Commercial Officer at Randstad India and deftly manoeuvres through the management maze, it is because of the clarity and direction, strength and conviction that Bhagawan has instilled in him during thos...

My Life's Safest Shore | D N Murthy | OMS Episode - 31/100

Three weeks prior to a devastating storm that was to throw his life asunder, Bhagawan brought D N Muthy to His lotus feet - the safest harbour in the Universe. A teenager then, Murthy had no clue of the typhoons that were to turn his life upside down, but the merciful Swami ensured that he always was carefully sheltered in His presence and power, not only then but for all years since then. Today Murthy woes his every breath to Bhagawan and lives only to thank Him for every OMS moment that Bhagaw...
