108 Names of Bhagavan Sri Sathya Sai Baba

We’ve been provided with the 108 Names describing the wondrous glories of our Lord Bhagavan Sri Sathya Sai Baba.  But of what use should we put these descriptive attributes of the Divine to? Perhaps mere repetition of these names is not what the Lord had in mind.  For if you study each one of these aspects you discover the Lord being ever willing to help you no matter what your intention is. [This is] whether it be the glorification of the Lord, the sincere inquiry to comprehend the munificence of the Lord or the need to request His ever-present all-encompassing help. His grace is contained in each name ready to be called forth in answer to your hearts yearning. Can this kind of love and grace be found anywhere else?

In becoming more familiar with the 108 Names of the Lord it is suggested that as a practice you study one name until you experience the essence of Baba’s presence contained in each name. One aspect of this process is writing the name and the English translation and focusing on it during the day.

When we remember to turn to the Lord with our fullest devotion, He is there ever present to bless us with His divine grace and love!
