Om Sai Nathaya Arpanamastu
Shubham Bhavatu

Om Sai Ram.

[drashta]

Om Sai Ram.

Baba's leelas are amazing. I thought I would translate a chapter a day. But, Baba did not let me stop .

The translation from Hindi to english may not have conveyed the flavour of the Prerana. But, the essence is captured.
The literal meaning of each verse, as it is written in Hindi is:

'' Try doing ........for my sake.... and see
If I don't give.......in return.....then you say"

In other words, each verse is a promise of Baba to His devotees. He asks us to do something, and promises something in return. I understand that this Prerana is an extended form of Baba's 11 assurances. May Sai Bless all of us with Shraddha and Saburi.

Om Sai Ram.

[SS91]

Thanks sunita,

You made my wish and prayers happen  so fast. Sai bless you. I am sure SAI PRERANA  will be spreading now in english like a wild fire. I am so happy for you and for all the other devotees who will be immensely  benefited too. I have already sent in a word to some of my friends. Thanks a ton for your precious time.

Sai is always residing in you

JaiSaiRam

[sasiravi]

Sairam Drashta,
Baba made you an instrument. When ever a devotee is going to chant "Sai Prerna", the credit goes to Ram Sai Prakashji, Priyaji and you.
May BAba bless these wonderful souls always!
Baba is working on one more miracle of getting the Audio done by a very great singer of Sai! Will share the details later after it materialises!

Sairam,
Mrs.Sasi Ravi
