Overview of Baba's Birthday Importance
Birth of Divine Love:
Baba taught that the true "birthday" is when one cultivates love, compassion, and virtues, rather than just marking a date on a calendar.
Service Above Self:
The day is marked by intensified community service (Seva), with a focus on helping the poor, weak, and distressed, embodying the teaching that "Love is God".
Spiritual Transformation:
It is a time for introspection, urging devotees to move away from mundane,
selfish activities and toward spiritual growth, inner peace, and the realization of their divine nature.
Message of Unity:
The celebrations emphasize the "oneness" of all humanity, advocating for the removal of barriers and the spread of harmony.
Message to Society:
The core message of the day is "My Life is My Message,"
urging devotees to adopt selfless love and service as a way of life,
rather than just ritualistic worship.
Significance of the 3rd Sai's birthday-
Real Birthday Definition:
Sri Prema Sai Baba emphasized that his birthday is not just the physical date (March 16), but whenever a person resolves to practice his teachings and follows his guidance.
Message of Love and Service:
The occasion is a reminder to cultivate love (Prema),
non-violence (Ahimsa), peace (Shanti), truth (Satya),
and righteousness (Dharma). It is a time for selfless action, not just routine rituals.
Recommitment to Ideals:
The 22nd birthday (2026) emphasizes transforming oneself by
reducing the ego and serving humanity.
Celebration of Divinity:
Devotees celebrate the day with bhajans (devotional songs),
Narayana Seva (feeding the poor),
and special programs at Rettaparthi Village - Shanthi Nilayam
to re-center their lives on spiritual, rather than material, pursuits.
The focus is to make one's heart a "Shanthi Nilayam" (Abode of Peace).
