Study Circle

Welcome and SaiRam

Swami Says:

Study circle means taking a point and each person discussing what is the meaning of the point to them, like a round-table conference. Each person gives their point of view, and finally values are derived from this. If there is just reading, there is doubt. But if each one gives his view, doubts will be answered. The topic is viewed; the study circle looks at different facets. It is like a diamond with its different facets, but there is one facet that is flat, the top facet, and from this all can be viewed. To discover the top facet is the task of the study circle.

Study Circle - Purpose

The purpose of Study Circle is to help members deepen their understanding of Sri Sathya Sai Baba's teachings and to strengthen their personal practice.

Swami says: Not information, but transformation; not instruction, but construction should be the aim.

Study Circle-Format

Take a point. Have everyone think about it and discuss it, and come to the final point where doubt is decreased. If only one person reads, there will be only one meaning. All misunderstandings, all points of view - after these are brought out, the study circle members will get confidence. There is no doubt of this. If each one only reads, this may go on for a year or two, then an allergy to reading develops. Centers must have study circles in this way, and none will note the passage of time. Each one listens eagerly and many will give their point of view. The Bible, the Koran, the Gita, Swami’s books may be used. What is wanted is a study circle; rotating. Each one must be given a chance."

My task is not merely to cure, console and remove individual misery. But there is something far more important. The important task of the mango tree is to produce the mango fruit. The leaves, the branches and the trunk of the tree are useful in their own way, no doubt, but the main aim of the mango tree is to produce the mango fruit. So too, the removal of misery and distress are all incidental to my mission. My main task is re-establishment of Vedas and Shastras in the hearts of all people.
