Source of the Dream: My Way to Sathya Sai Baba,
By Greg Senter (Cottonwood, AZ United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Source of the Dream: My Way to Sathya Sai Baba (Paperback)
I began reading two other books written by people who found Sai Baba and both were older and obviously dated in thought and form. This one was easy for me to understand as a westerner, and it seemed more connected with todays world. It also made clear what a relationship with such an exceptional Avatar can mean. The first part of the book gives the authors story, the second talks in depth about Baba teachings and direct quotes that can help in your everyday life. It's easy to follow, interesting to read, and will answer your questions about how your life will most definitely change on the path to love and Sathya Sai Baba.

Caution to potential readers,

This review is from: Source of the Dream: My Way to Sathya Sai Baba (Paperback)
To anyone who might want to read this book to learn about Sathya Sai Baba: beware! Robert Priddy is a caustic defamer of Sathya Sai Baba. He turned against Sai Baba after writing this book, and now creates masses of hate-filled defamatory propaganda, and publishes his views on various websites. Despite being a leader of the anti-Sai movement, his thoughts and views have been factually countered by legitimate investigation, and long since dismissed. Sai Baba is pure in both His teachings and deeds, and like any influential person in the public eye, is prone to such attacks, by misguided individuals like Robert Priddy.
