n fifty short chapters, this Travel Edition retells the beloved Shri Sai Satcharitra, the great chronicle of Shri Sai Baba of Shirdi first set down in Marathi by Govind Raghunath Dabholkar (Hemadpant). It carries the whole sweep of Baba's life in a concise, carry-anywhere form made for the journey and for daily reading.
Here are his wondrous leelas and the deep love he held for his devotees. Here are the moments of protection and grace that drew thousands to Shirdi, and still draw them today. And here, set gently apart on the page for reflection, are Baba's own teachings, so that the reader can pause and take them to heart.
The book closes with the daily aratis sung at Shirdi and a glossary of Sanskrit and Marathi terms, so that nothing stands between the reader and the story. Whether kept by the bedside, carried on a pilgrimage, or opened a few pages at a time, this edition is meant to keep Baba close.
"If a man utters My name with love, I shall fulfil all his wishes, and deepen his devotion." — Shri Sai Baba
