I am advising you to garner and treasure all the Grace and all the Bliss you can, while you may, so that you can sustain yourselves ruminating on the sweetness of the memories and the experience.

Sri Sathya Sai Speaks, Vol 11, 1972

The Sri Sathya Sai International Archive is a global effort focused on documenting the mission and legacy of Sri Sathya Sai Baba worldwide. It aims at preserving letters and gifts from Sri Sathya Sai Baba as well as rare photos and films before they are lost or damaged, and encourages devotees to share their experiences so that the way Sri Sathya Sai Baba touched their lives remains as inspiration for future generations. The Sri Sathya Sai International Archive also maps the development of the Sri Sathya Sai International Organization from the time it was founded by Sri Sathya Sai till today.

These precious memories of Sri Sathya Sai, and the unfolding of His mission worldwide through the Organization, are preserved through photos, audio and video and through interviews and written accounts by devotees who have been part of His mission and, in many cases, even had personal interactions and experiences with our beloved Sai.

All these activities are done as ways of Remembering Sai's Love and His Divine play, now and in the future. Remembrance is a Spiritual Practice (sadhana) immersing us in Spiritual Company (satsang).

If you would like to share information about your direct interactions with Sri Sathya Sai Baba, please let us know by contacting archive@sathyasai.org. Thank you.

When the greater and more lasting pleasure derived from the Glories of the Lord and their recapitulation is grasped; thereafter one feels that there is nothing as sweet as the experience of listening to the Splendor of the Lord.

Bhagavatha Vahini p. 5

The nectar of Your words and the descriptions of Your activities are the life and soul of those suffering in this material world. These narrations, transmitted by learned sages, eradicate one’s sinful reactions.

 

Srimad Bhagavatam 10:31:9 (Canto 10, Chapter 31, Verse 9)
