“Joy and peace do not inhere in external objects; they are in you yourself.”

— Prema Vahini, Cultivate love through two methods

The initiative

Why this programme matters

The Vahinis are the stream of writings Bhagawan composed for the Sanathana Sarathi. Read in sequence, they form a complete course of spiritual instruction given directly by Swami — from divine love to meditation, from righteous conduct to the Upanishads, the Gita and the Ramayana.

A guided, time-bound method

A structured way to read Swami’s writings in sequence, so that the intention to read the Vahinis becomes a completed journey.

Daily reading, made gentle

A few pages a day, with the platform keeping your place. Falling behind is never a reason to stop — the pace is yours.

Open to every devotee

All sixteen Vahinis, in full, free to read on any device. Nothing to buy, nothing to download.

Living the Code of Conduct

A direct, practical expression of the Sixth Point — the regular study of Sai literature.

The programme

How it works

Three quiet steps. The platform does the arithmetic; you do the reading.

    1 / 3

    Step 1

    Choose your pace

    One, three or five years — or any length between. Begin on the day you choose; your months run from then.

    2 / 3

    Step 2

    Read a little each day

    Your programme tells you today’s pages in plain terms and keeps your place. Miss a day and it simply adjusts, without fuss.

    3 / 3

    Step 3

    Earn your certificates

    When every chapter of a Vahini has been read, a certificate is issued in your name — and a final one when all sixteen are complete.

Choose a pace

Three tracks, one path

All three read the same sixteen books in the same order. Move to a gentler pace at any time — your reading and certificates stay with you.

The platform

While you read

The companion is there to clarify what Swami wrote, not to replace the reading of it. The teaching is in His words; the platform only helps you reach them.

Highlight

Mark any passage that speaks to you and find it again in one place.

Notes

Write your own reflection against any passage — one statement from every chapter.

Ask the companion

When a term or passage is unclear, ask and receive an explanation drawn from the text itself.

Chapter quizzes

A short, light self-check at the end of each chapter — for you alone, never graded.

Glossary

Sanskrit and Vedantic terms explained, so an unfamiliar word never stops you.

Comfortable text

Change the size, font and colour to suit your eyes, on phone, tablet or computer.

Your place is kept

Position, highlights and notes follow you across every device, automatically.

Certificates

One for each Vahini read in full, and a final certificate for the whole series.

“Discipline, regularity, steadiness —these are the essentials of meditation.”

— Dhyana Vahini, Remove Defects in Character

“If there is contentment in the mind, one enjoys an endless festival.”

— Dhyana Vahini, Remove Defects in Character

“Dharma is the moral path; the moral path is the light; the light is bliss (ananda).”

— Dharma Vahini, The Basic Flaw

The journey starts now.

Sign in with your email, choose your pace, and open Prema Vahini. Your twelve months — or thirty-six, or sixty — begin today.

A certificate is an encouragement, not the goal. A reader who reads with devotion has received the whole benefit.
