As is in Shri Sai Satcharita, by Hemadpant .. Chapter III Page 20

Om Sai Shri Sai Jaya Jaya Sai

The Sadhana for Krita Age was Shamadama(tranquility of mind and body), for Treta Age, sacrifice, for Dwapara, worship, and for Kali (present) Age, it is singing of the name and glory of the Lord.  This last Sadhana is open to all the people of the four varnas (Brahmins, etc).  The other Sadhanas, viz. Yoga, Yagya (sacrifice), Dhyana (meditation) and Dharana (concentration) are very difficult to practice, but singing and hearing the stories and the glory of the Lord (sai Baba) is very easy.  We have only to turn our attention towards them.  The listening and singing of the stories will remove the attachment to the senses and their objects, and will make the devotees dispassionate, and will ultimately lead them to self-relization.  With this end in view, Sai Baba made me or helped me to write His stories, Sat-Charitamrita.  The devotees may now easily read and hear these stories of Sai Baba and while doing so, meditate on Him, His form and thus attain devotion to Guru and God (Sai Baba), get detachment and self-relization.  In the preparation and writing of this work, Sat-Charitamrita, it is Sai Baba's grace which has accomplished everything, making use of me as a mere instrument.

Bow to Shri Sai - Peace be to All
