Anantapur: AP Governor Abdul Nazeer described Sri Sathya Sai Baba of Puttaparthi as a shining example of a saint who motivated millions to get on to the path of service.
Addressing devotees as chief guest at the 99th birth anniversary celebrations of Satya Sai Baba at the Sai Kulwanth Hall in Prasanthinilayam in Puttaparthi of Satya Sai district on Saturday, the Governor said there have been many rishis, munis, sufis, acharyas and saints who have guided humanity on the right path.
“In our age, Sai Baba spread spirituality across the globe and took up social services on a large scale,” Abdul Nazeer pointed out. He commended the Sri Satya Sai Central Trust for initiating construction of a 6,100 KW solar power generation plant, the largest by an NGO in the country.
The Governor recalled Sri Sathya Sai Baba teaching that a human’s basic nature is divine and his / her purpose is to realise that divinity. Such realisation comes by leading a moral life, rendering selfless service to those in need, engaging in devotional practices, and developing love, respect and compassion for all life.
Abdul Nazeer underlined that for Sathya Sai Baba, spiritualism had not been through rituals, but by providing selfless service to people and education to students.
BC welfare minister Savitha, MLAs Sindhura Reddy and M.S. Raju, and SP V. Rathna were among those present.
