Here's a brief biography of Sathya Sai Baba:

Full Name: Sathyanarayana Raju
Born: November 23, 1926, in Puttaparthi, Andhra Pradesh, India

Nationality: Indian

Sathya Sai Baba was born as Sathyanarayana Raju in a modest Telugu-speaking family. From a young age, he was known for his spiritual inclinations, wisdom beyond his age, and miraculous abilities, such as materializing objects like vibhuti (sacred ash). At the age of 14, he declared himself the reincarnation of Sai Baba of Shirdi, a revered saint from Maharashtra who had died in 1918.

Sathya Sai Baba taught the unity of all religions and emphasized the five core human values:

• Truth (Sathya)

• Right Conduct (Dharma)

• Peace (Shanti)

• Love (Prema)

• Non-violence (Ahimsa)

  
  

He encouraged his followers to lead selfless lives, practice devotion to God, and engage in service to humanity. His motto was:
“Love All, Serve All. Help Ever, Hurt Never.”

He was widely known for performing miracles, including healings, materializations of sacred ash and jewelry, and bilocations. While many devotees saw these as signs of divinity, skeptics and critics accused him of sleight of hand and deception. Despite this, he retained a massive global following.

Sathya Sai Baba established a vast spiritual and humanitarian network. Key institutions include:

• Sri Sathya Sai Institute of Higher Learning (University)

• Sri Sathya Sai Super Specialty Hospitals (providing free healthcare)

• Free education and drinking water projects across India

  
  

His organization has centers in over 100 countries, promoting spiritual growth and community service.

Sai Baba passed away on April 24, 2011, at age 84. His death led to widespread mourning, with over 500,000 people attending his funeral. His mausoleum (Samadhi) is located at Prasanthi Nilayam, his ashram in Puttaparthi.

Even after his death, his legacy continues through the work of the Sathya Sai International Organization and various charitable initiatives.
