SATJA SAI BABA- VEČNI RAD ZA ČOVEČANSTVO

　 Često su Indijci optuživani da nisu milosrdni.
　 Gurui, Svamiji, očevi (babas) i majke (matas) su prikazuju kao
　 prevaranti koji samo pokušavaju da zarade na lakovernoj zajednici
　 dok se indijske organizacije predstavljaju kao ekstremisti i teroristi.
　 I pojedinačno, obično se za Indijce misli da su sebični.
　 Indijski i zapadni mediji često prikazuju ovakvu sliku svetu koju
　 hrišćanski misionari i drugi koriste kao propagandu protiv
　 hinduizma da bi progurali svoj program i preobratili Indijce.
　 No, najgore je što većina Indijaca i sami veruju u propagandu
　 bez proveravanja činjenica.
　 Sigurno je da postoje foliranti odeveni u šafran odeću i Indijci
　 koji ne mare za druge Indijce, ali to nije uvek slučaj s obzirom na to
　 da ima mnogo indijskih organizacija, gurua, sekti, grupa kao što su:
　 Raštrija Svajamsevak Sang (RSS), Arja Samaj, Iskan, Umetnost
　 življenja, Mata Amritanandamaji i mnogi drugi manje poznati, ali koji
　 obavljaju ogroman društveni rad na zemlji bez dobijanja ikakvog
　 priznanja. Iz tog razloga, Indijska Ljudska Prava će raditi seriju članaka
　 gledajući u i objavljujući rad indijskih organizacija, sekti, grupa i
　 pojedinaca koji rade za indijsko društvo i zajednice u zemljama
　 u kojima žive.

　 UVOD

　 Satja Sai Baba je poznat mnogima na različite načine.
　 Za svoje sledbenike, on je Avatar, Guru; drugi tvrde da je bio ulični
　 mađioničar i prevarant.
　 Pa ipak, Njegova učenja su privukla milione ljudi, i bez obzira na
　 pojedinačna mišljenja o Satja Sai Babi, postoji jedan aspekt koji
　 niko ne može da ignoriše, a to je Njegovo služenje ljudskom rodu-
　čovečanstvu.　 To je podstaklo i druge da vrše služenje bez želje
　da dobiju bilo šta zauzvrat.

　 BOLNICE

　 Satja Sai Baba je počeo sa malom bolnicom u svom rodnom selu
　 Putapartiju, gde nije bilo medicinskih ustanova.
　 On je takođe prvi istakao da bogati mogu da plate i brinu o svom zdravlju,　 ali šta je sa siromašnima?
　 Satja Sai Baba je 1990 god. svečano otvorio vodeću svetsku bolnicu koja ima jedini cilj - da pruži besplatne usluge svima, bez obzira na njihovo
　siromaštvo ili bogatstvo.
　 Još jedna takva bolnica je otvorena 2001 god. u Bangaloreu po istom
　 modelu. Do danas, sve bolnice su pružile preko 95 000 operacija srca,　　 preko 56 000 uroloških i plastičnih operacija, preko 13 000 neuroloških operacija, hiljade ortopedskih operacija, i stotine hiljada besplatnih pregleda, lekova, hrane i materijala.
　 Kako se sve ovo finansira, a da se ne ugrozi briga o pacijentima i
　 obezbeđuje najbolja oprema i medicinske ekipe?
　 Pa, sve je ovo moguće zahvaljujući ljubavi i brizi poklonika, a uz to se
　 čak ni osoblje ne plaća.
　 Oni dolaze iz cele Indije i ,zaista, iz celog sveta da ponude svoje
usluge, pomažući čovečanstvu.
　
　 MEDICINSKI KAMPOVI

　 Sledeći model pružanja besplatne bolničke nege, širom Indije i sveta se održavaju medicinski kampovi..
　 Redovni　 timovi odlaze u gradove, sela i udaljena područja da
　 obezbede lekove, konsultacije, zdravstvenu kontrolu, zdravstveno
　 obrazovanje, testove, akutnu negu i besplatno lečenje, sve to bez plaćanja.
　 Satja Sai grupe su organizovale međunarodne stručnjake i oformile
　 grupe hirurga, fizijatara, farmaceuta, sestara i medicinskih tehničara
　 za održavanje međunarodnih kampova širom sveta.
　Kampovi su uključeni u mnogim mestima, npr. u podsaharskoj Africi,
　 Keniji, Indoneziji i Laosu.
　
　 SEVA

　 Sai Babini poklonici su takođe poznati po njihovom služenju, tj. sevi
　 za druge. Mnogi su usvojili pristup pomaganja drugima iz　 svog
　 okruženja. Bez obzira da li je to čišćenje ulica, ili pomaganje
　 komšijama, oko 2 250 000 seva dal žena i muškaraca volontera su　　　　 spremni da pomažu drugima. Osim toga, kada se pojave prirodne
　 nepogode, još više njih je spremno da izađu i pomognu onima koji su
　 u nevolji. Na primer, kada su bile poplave u Orisi, Andra Pradešu, Tamil　　　　　　 Naduu , Karnataki i Maharaštri. Ili kada su bili zemljotresi u Guđaratu,
　 Japanu, Indoneziji, El Salvadoru ili Peruu.
　 Pomoć žrtvama cunamija u Šri Lanki, ili Tajlandu ili žrtvama gladi u
　 istočnoj Africi.
　 Da li svi Satja Sai Babini volonteri, ljudi iz medicinskih porodica, poslanici
　 i drugi pomažu?
　 Bilo da pomažu tako što daju bezbednu vodu za piće, hranu ili izgrađuju
　 skloništa ili kroz druge potrebe, svi to čine sa jedinom željom da pomognu.

　 OBRAZOVANJE

　 Drugi aspekt brige Satja Sai Babe je pružanje besplatnog obrazovanja
　 za sve bez obzira na poreklo. Od vrtića do univerziteta, Satja Sai Baba
　 ističe da je besplatno obrazovanje ne samo važno već i ostvarivo. Satja　　 Sai Baba je 1968 god. osnovao ženski koledž u Anantapuru Andra Pradeš,
　 zatim 1969 god. muški koledž u Bangaloreu, a zatim još jedan 1979 god. u
　 Putapartiju.
　 Danas su sve to obrazovne institucije najvišeg državnog ranga.
　 Baš kao i osnovno obrazovanje, ljudske vrednosti, kao što je pomaganje　　 drugima, se podučavaju i praktično primenjuju.
　 Satja Sai Babine škole postoje danas u više od 90 zemalja.
　 Pored toga, u svetu se održavaju　 nekoliko stotina časova u lokalnim
　centrima, kao što je slučaj u Zambiji.

　 VODA

　 S obzirom da je svetsko stanovništvo u porastu, pitanje vode postaje
　 sve veći problem. U mnogim područjima Andra Pradeša do Čenaja
　 u Tamil Naduu　 je nestašica vode svakodnevna realnost.
　 Satja Sai Baba je 1994 god. odlučio da pomogne ljudima lansirajući　 najveći, privatno finansirani, društveni projekat u svetu-　 besplatnu, čistu
　 vodu za preko 10 miliona ljudi. Postavljene su vodovodne cevi kroz 1500 sela u Andra Pradešu, duge skoro 5020 km. Kasnije je sproveden projekat
　 vode za područja od Kanateru Poondi kanala do stanovnika velikog grada　　 Čenaja. Obim projekta je bio bez presedana, da ga je čak i indijska
　 vlada smatrala nemogućim. Model je preslikan u El Salvadoru,
　 srednjoj Americi, obezbeđujući vodu za više od 2000 porodica, kao i
　 u Jogđakarti u Indoneziji.

　 ZAKLJUČAK

　 Bez obzira na mišljenje o Satja Sai Babi, gore navedeni　 primeri ne bi　　 trebalo da se previđaju.
　 Glavna poruka Satja Sai Babe je uvek bila "Pomozi uvek, ne povredi
　 nikad". Odnosno, budi spreman da pomogneš drugima i ne traži ništa　　 zauzvrat. Ovo su primeri za sve nas iz kojih možemo da učimo, a zatim i　 primenimo. Možemo da gradimo na njima i koristimo ih kao modele
　 u svojim životima u mestima gde živimo.

Sathya Sai Baba - Eternal Work for
Mankind

http://www.hinduhumanrights.info/sathya-sai-baba-eternal-work-for-mankind/



Often Hindus are accused of not being charitable.The
Gurus, Swamis, babas
and matas are portrayed as fraudsters only trying to
make money out of the
gullible public while Hindu organisations are promoted
as extremists and
terrorists. And individual Hindus are seen as just plain
selfish.The Indian
and Western media often portrays this image to the world
which christian
missionaries and others use as propaganda against hinduism to
pus h their
agenda to convert Hindus. But worse many Hindus themselves
believe the
propaganda without checking the facts for themselves.

Sure
there are con artists dressed in saffron robes and Hindus who dont care
about
other Hindus but this is not always the case as there are many
Hindu
organisations, gurus,sects, groups like the Rashtriya Swayamsevak
Sangh
(RSS),Arya Samaj, Iskcon, Art of Living, Mata Amritanandamayi and many
more
not well known but who are doing tremendous social work on the
ground
without getting any recognition at all. For that reason Hindu Human
Rights
will be doing a series of articles looking into and publicizing the
work of
Hindu organisations, sects, groups and individuals working for Hindu
society
and the societies in the countries they live in.

Sathya Sai
Baba - Eternal Work for Mankind

Introduction

Sathya Sai Baba is
known by many as by various means. To his followers he is
an Avatar, a Guru;
to others they claim he was a street magician and fraud.

However his
teachings appeal to millions, irrespective of anyone's view on
Sathya Sai
Baba, there is one aspect that no one can ignore and that is his
service for
humanity - for mankind.

This was encouraged to all as a service they
should offer themselves without
any desires of a
return.

Hospitals

Sathya Sai Baba started with a small hospital in
his native village of
Puttaparthi, which had no medical facilities. He has
also stated that the
rich can pay and look after the health of themselves,
but what about the
poor.

In 1990 Sathya Sai Baba inaugurated a world
leading hospital which has a
sole focus of offering free service to all,
regardless if they are poor or
rich.

In 2001 another leading hospital
was opened in Bengaluru, again with the
same model.

To date these
hospitals have provided over 95000 cardiac operations, over
56000 urology
& plastic surgeries, over 13000 neurological surgeries,
thousands of
orthopaedic surgeries, and hundreds of thousands free
consultations,
medicines, food and supplies.

How is this funded, without compromising
patient care and ensuring the best
equipment and medical teams are available?
Well it is all possible by the
love and affection of devotees, and even the
staff are not paid.

They come from all over India and indeed all over the
world to offer their
services as helping mankind.

Medical
Camps

Following on from the model of providing free hospital care,
medical camps
are run throughout India and the world.

Regular teams go
out to towns, villages and remote areas to provide
medicines, consultations,
health screening, health education, tests, acute
care and free on going
treatment, all for no costs.

International specialists are organised by
various Sathya Sai Groups, and
groups have arranged for surgeons, physicians,
pharmacists, nurses and
medical technicians to run international camps around
the world. These have
included camps in many places for example Sub Saharan
Africa, Kenya,
Indonesia and Laos.

Seva

Sathya Sai Baba
devotees are also known for their service i.e. seva to
others. Helping those
around them is an approach many take. Whether it be
cleaning the streets or
helping their neighbours, there are about 2,25,000
seva dal women and men
volunteers who ready to help others. In addition when
natural calamities
arise, many more are ready and go out to help those in
distress. For example
when there were floods in Orissa, Andhra Pradesh,
Tamil Nadu, Karnataka and
Maharashtra.

Or when there have been earthquakes in Gujarat, Japan,
Indonesia , El
Salvador or Peru. Helping the victims of the Tsunami in Sri
Lanka or
Thailand, and also with the famine in east Africa. Sathya Sai
Baba
volunteers from medical backgrounds, Councillors, and others have all
gone
to help. Be it to help give safe drinking water, food, reconstruct
shelter,
or help with any other necessities, all have gone wanted nothing
other than
to help.

Education

Another core aspect of Sathya Sai
Baba has been to provide free education to
all regardless of
background.

From kindergarten to university, Sathya Sai Baba has should
all that a free
education is not only important but can be
done.

Sathya Sai Baba started a women's college in Anantapur Andra
Pradesh in
1968, then a men's college in Bengaluru in 1969, then another in
1979 in
Puttaparthi. Today all education establishments have the highest
government
ranking. As well as core education, human values such as helping
others is
taught and practically undertaken.

Today there are Sathya
Sai Baba schools in more than 90 countries. In
addition many hundreds classes
are held throughout the world in local
centers such as in
Zambia.

Water

As the world's population grows, the issue of water
is becoming a bigger
issue. Throughout many areas of Andhra Pradesh to
Chennai in Tamil Nadu,
water scarcity was a coming daily reality.

In
1994 Sathya Sai Baba decided to help the people by launching the
largest
privately funded social project in the world, free clean water for
over 10
million people.

Nearly 5020 km of pipelines was laid across
initially 1500 villages in
Andhra Pradesh. Later the water for areas from the
Kanaleru-Poondi canal to
residents of the mega city of Chennai was arranged.
The scale of the project
was unprecedented, that even the Indian government
thought not possible.

The model was replicated in El Salvador, Central
America providing water for
over 2000 families, and in Yogyakarta in
Indonesia.

Conclusion

So no matter what views one has of Sathya
Sai Baba, the above examples
should not be overlooked. The main message of
Sathya Sai Baba was always to
"Help Ever, Hurt Never". That is to say be
willing to help others and do not
ask for anything in return. These examples
are for us all to learn from and
then to apply. We can build upon them and
use them as models in our own
lives in our own areas.
