About

Started in 1958, Sanathana Sarathi is a monthly magazine devoted to Sathya

(Truth), Dharma (Righteousness), Shanti (Peace) and Prema (Love) - the four

cardinal principles of Bhagawan Baba's philosophy. It is published from

Prasanthi Nilayam (the Abode of Highest Peace) and acts as a mouthpiece of

Baba's Ashram as it speaks of the important events that take place in His

sacred Abode, besides carrying Divine Messages conveyed through Divine

Discourses of Bhagawan Sri Sathya Sai Baba.

Prof. N. Kasturi, the chosen biographer of Bhagawan was the founder Publisher

and Editor of Sanathana Sarathi from its inception in 1958 till he attained the

Divine Lotus Feet in the Year 1987.

In His own words:

"From this day, our Sanathana Sarathi will lead to victory the cohorts of truth

- the Vedas, the Sastras and similar scriptures of all faiths, against the

forces of the ego such as injustice, falsehood, immorality and cruelty. This is

the reason why it has emerged. This Sarathi will fight in order to establish

world prosperity. It is bound to sound the paean of triumph when universal

Ananda is achieved."

The word meaning of Sanathana Sarathi is the 'Eternal Charioteer'. It signifies

the presence of the Lord in every being as the atma guiding their lives like a

charioteer. It implies that he who places his life, the body being likened to a

chariot, in an attitude of surrender in the hands of the Lord, will be taken

care of by the Lord even as a charioteer would take the occupant of his chariot

safely to its destination.

The magazine is an instrument to disseminate spiritual knowledge for the moral,

physical and mental uplift of humanity without any discrimination as the

subject matter discussed therein is always of common interest and of universal

appeal. The fifteen Vahinis - streams of sacredness - known as the Vahini

Series comprising annotation and interpretation of the Upanishads and other

scriptures, Itihasas like the Ramayana, the Bhagavatha and the Mahabharata, and

authentic explanations on Dhyana, Dharma, Prema, etc., have been serially

published in this magazine as and when they emanated from the Divine pen of

Bhagawan Baba. This magazine is published in almost all Indian languages,

English and Telugu from Prasanthi Nilayam and others from respective regions.

Every year Sanathana Sarathi comes out with a special issue in November

commemorating the Divine Birthday. The English and Telugu magazines are posted

on the 10th and 23rd respectively, of every month, from Prasanthi Nilayam. This

magazine has wide, ever increasing circulation in India as well as abroad, as

the study of it brings the reader closer to the philosophy of the Avatar in

simple understandable language.
