Shirdi Sai Baba

Ek Prernadayak Jeevan

'He appeared in Shirdi, he served the people and he conquered their hearts.'

Sometime in the mid-nineteenth century, a sixteen-year-old boy arrived in Shirdi, a small village in Maharashtra. Greeted as 'Sai' by the local priest, Mhalsapati, he began to be addressed by that name therea­er, and proceeded to touch and transform the lives of millions of his devotees. Shirdi Sai Baba: Ek Prernadayak Jeevan captures the life of the great saint in the most comprehensive manner till date. An authoritative scholar on the subject, who has devoted his life to spreading Shirdi Sai Baba's teachings throughout the world, Dr Chandra Bhanu Satpathy has delved into rare archives and intelligence reports from the British Raj, and has interviewed hundreds of devotees, including direct descendants of Baba's closest disciples, to provide an objective, factual and comprehensive view of Sai Baba's life. Here is a book that paints a beautiful portrait of an inspiring biography.
