Aum Sri Sai Ram
With hearts filled with gratitude and reverence, we offer this humble compilation of Bhaja Govindam verses, from Verse 1 to Verse 16, as covered in our 2024 Online Classes. These verses, lovingly selected by Bhagawan Sri Sathya Sai Baba Himself, form a divine path of guidance for spiritual seekers of all ages.
Each verse of Bhaja Govindam, composed by the great Adi Sankaracharya, is a timeless call to awaken from the slumber of ignorance and to live a life rooted in wisdom, love, and devotion. Through Swami’s grace, we have been blessed to explore not only the literal meaning of these sacred verses, but also their inner significance, their relevance in daily life, and practical ways of applying them through the five teaching techniques of Sai Spiritual Education — prayer, story, group activity, life application, and silent sitting.
This booklet serves as both a reflection and a resource — a reminder that true education is transformation of the heart. May each verse inspire us to turn inward, to discriminate between the permanent and the transient, and to seek Govinda with unwavering faith and joy.
As Bhagawan beautifully reminds us:
“Education should lead to the transformation of the heart. True wisdom lies in recognizing the Divine within.”
May this offering serve as a light on our spiritual journey, guiding us ever closer to the lotus feet of our Beloved Bhagawan.
With love and gratitude,
Sr Roshinie Pillay
