Book Description
Dr. Bhatia's devotion to God illuminates the pages of this spiritual
autobiography. As head of the blood bank at Sathya Sai Baba's Super Specialty
Hospital, he has had frequent conversations and experiences that bring Sai
Baba's love and grandeur to the reader as few other books have done. Dr. Bhatia
has witnessed many breathtaking divine cures of disease which he knew, as a
talented physician, lay far beyond the knowledge and skill of the medical
profession. What inspires the reader is the author's love of his great master
and his sincere understanding of the bhakthi path of love and service to
mankind.
Back Cover (American Edition)
Discerning seekers of the spiritual dimension will find much in this
autobiography, punctuated with wondrous joy-giving miracles, to help them on
the great journey.
The author, Dr. Naresh Bhatia, is a member of the Sathya Sai Baba Super
Speciality Hospital in Prasanthi Nilayam. He has witnessed many breathtaking
divine cures of disease which he knew as a talented physician, lay far beyond
the knowledge and skill of the medical profession. As one who has witnessed and
written about a great many of the Sai miracles, I find that I appreciate most of
all what I call the medical miracles. Knowing the author as a man of absolute
integrity and realizing his advantageous position for observing and judging
healing miracles, I found them authentic and impressive. More importantly, what
inspires the reader is the author's love of his great master and his sincere
understanding of the Bhakthi path of love and service to mankind.
