"A Practical God A Divine Soul who came to the earth as a Human Being, lived as a KARMYOGI, spoke as a PROPHET, taught like JESUS, served as BUDDHA, and left this world as SAI BABA – THE GOD OF MILLIONS! He had said, “When I will no more be in the body, my bones will speak to you from the Mahasamadhi, whenever you call me with love and faith.” Sai Baba still keeps His promise. You will hear Him speak to you within; you will find Him always beside you, extending His hand to you for your help; and believe me, you will never find yourself alone at times of crises. Sai Baba is a God who is practically yours – always – if you have faith in HIM.
