Sai Philosophy Differs

Aum Sairam

Religions differ based on principles, way of life, festivals, and method of worship and so on. Sri Sai philosophy is beyond religions. In fact it brings all the religions together. Baba specifies the nine qualities namely: [1] Absence of egoism [2] Absence of jealousy [3] Untiring service [4] Absence of worldly desires [5] Complete faith in Guru [6] Peaceful nature [7] Desire to know the truth [8] Absence of envy, and (9) Absence of self-boasting and finding faults in others.

These qualities are not specific to any religion.

Also the greatness of Sri Sai Baba is that he brought (and still brings) people of all religions together. Today people of all religions can visit his mandir. Sri Sai philosophy requests all of us to mention the name of God. Sri Sai Baba never insisted that his devotees should only worship him.

The greatness of Sri Sai Baba was that he did not create a new religion. Thru his teachings, he made sure that people followed their religious practices and that they understood the purpose of religion. Sri Sai Baba also tried to convince people not to distinguish one another by religion. A good example is the celebrating of the Ramanavami and Urs festival at the same time. Religion is a path to God. Sri Sai Baba's teachings are also a path to God.
