The Sri Sathya Sai Seva Organisation was founded in the year of 1960 by Bhagawan Sri Sathya Sai Baba to enable its members to undertake service activities as a means to spiritual advancement. The Sathya Sai Seva Organisation derives inspiration, guidance and strength from Bhagawan Babaās mission and message of propagating the truth of manās inherent divinity, which is proclaimed and preached by all religions of the world. In consonance with this truth, the Organisation has as its main objective selfless love and service without any distinction of religion, nationality, race, socio-economic status, either for those who work in the Organisation or for those who are served by them. Thus, it transcends all barriers, leading humanity towards the ideal of āFatherhood of God and Brotherhood of Manā. In fact, this spiritual basis enables everyone to pursue his own religion better by putting its teachings into practice by way of love and service to the God who dwells in all hearts.
