Started in 2004, the Pariwar has been involving itself in many charitable activities that Baba preached in his lifetime. The Pariwar enjoys a membership of over 3000 families and growing. All members, though hail from different places, different religious beliefs, and different families, confluence as part of one larger family, that is Sri Sai Prachar Pariwar. Through this spiritual union, the Pariwar embodies the true spirit of national integration and communal harmony. Pariwar also arranges to provide free food to pilgrims in Shiridi on special days like Ram Navami and Diwali. We undertake to perform this Annadanam for a fortnight every year.
Annadhan Pradhaan
Nithya Sankalpam, is a noble service, where the annadhan is provided daily. All donors family names are there in the book. Before aarthi, guruji keeps this book before Baba. After aarthi Annadhan will commence.Your participation and contribution is this noble service is most welcome.
On every No-Moon Day, Pariwar feeds a minimum of 500 people, poor and rich, with a square meal. Guruji is of the firm belief that feeding the poor on that day is what truly delights Sai Baba rather than the traditional pooja and abhishekam. Also, those who cannot fulfill their ancestral rites, by feeding the poor on the Amavasya Sacred Day (Punniya Thithi), can avail the same blessings of their ancestors and God alike.
Annual Poojas
Every year on the first of May, the Pariwar celebrates the Chitra festival where we complete many charity activities such as:
- performing the wedding of one poor couple
- providing educational financial support to deserving students
- providing free medical assistance to poor devotees
- providing Annadhanam to over 3000 people
