Satya Sai Baba<\/a> and people from all walks of life are remembering his goodwork and his influence in their lives.<\/p>\nFew celebrities also shared their experiences.<\/p>\n
Vijay Devarakonda<\/p>\n
I don\u2019t like being alone. During festivals, I prefer following all traditions rather than just celebrating casually. No matter how difficult the situation is, I strongly believe it will pass. Whenever possible, I step forward to help others. All this came from studying in Puttaparthi and listening to Swami\u2019s teachings.<\/p>\n
Later, when I went to Puttaparthi, I witnessed the selfless service activities carried out by the Sai Trust without any discrimination. That strengthened my devotion and service mindset.<\/p>\n
Rajinikanth<\/p>\n
I sang two to three times before Swami. Once, after my performance, he called me and gave me a locket with the \u2018Om\u2019 symbol. He blessed me saying my voice should resonate across the world. I was deeply moved watching doctors, IAS and IPS officers doing voluntary work\u2014cleaning plates, wiping tables and sweeping\u2014happily chanting \u2018Sairam\u2019. After my daughter passed away, that spirit of service inspired us to start the Sneha Nandana Charitable Trust to support underprivileged musicians with monthly pensions.<\/p>\n
Sai Kumar<\/p>\n
Baba\u2019s teachings \u2014 \u2018Help Ever, Hurt Never\u2019 and \u2018Love All, Serve All\u2019 \u2014 guide my life. Having struggled for my education, I know how precious time is for a student. That\u2019s why I support poor students and conduct motivational sessions for youth in Sai organisations. Any good we do returns to us manifold<\/p>\n
Chitra<\/p>\n
My grandparents and mother were devotees, and later we followed the same path. Baba himself named me. Meditation every morning, staying composed during hardships, and overcoming stress\u2014these are all lessons I learnt from Swami.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
