INTRODUCTION

Service to Man is Service to God. Man is not merely a human body, he is an embodiment of the divine. All acts of service done are treated as service rendered unto God. Sathya Sai Baba's mottos are Love All - Serve All, Help Ever - Hurt Never.

Sathya Sai Baba has established His Organisation for the express purpose of giving devotees, in fact, everyone, opportunity to do selfless service. The fruits of selfless service are eradication of the ego, selfless love, and realisation of the inherent divinty within. No other spiritual activity provides these spiritual leaps and bounds other than service to the needy.

Service activity in Australia includes, among others:-

• Organising Soup Kitchens
• Helping Elderly and Youth
• Blood Donation
• Visiting Hospitals, writing letters for patients
• Distribution of Food
• Flood, Earthquake and other disaster relief
• Singing in Nursing Homes
• Homework assistance after School
• Tuition in Cookery, Home Economics, Hygiene, Computer Basics
• Distribution of Blankets in winter
• Distribution of Christmas hampers
• Medical and Dental Camps
• Ayurvedic and Pre Natal Clinics

Sathya Sai Baba has answered devotees questions on selfless service. You may view these Questions and Answers, and download the document, on the Questions and Answers page.

The Sathya Sai Organisation of Australia has a service wing at every Sai Group and Sai Center. Every Sai Center has a service coordinator and service activities are organised for the members to participate.
