4 Preparations In preparation for this journey we will implement several activities to intensify our spiritual discipline over the next two months.
5 Group vs. Individual All pilgrims should follow through with the activities with all the strength and intensity that Sai expects from us! We should remember that although the effort is individual, the commitment is as a group
6 Grace and Effort My Grace is proportional to your effort. Try to win grace by reforming your habits, reducing your desires and defining your higher nature. One step makes the next step easier; that is the excellence of spiritual journey. With each step, your strength and confidence will increase, and you will get bigger and bigger installments of Grace.

11 Pilgrimage Preparations Group Sadhana and Unity- Building Team
12 Spiritual Discipline (Sadhana) and Unity Team All actions that we do should be pleasing to the Lord. In whatever action we perform, the question must be asked, "Will this please the Lord or not?" God means in effect your conscience. You should not do anything which does not give you self-satisfaction. Whatever you do that pleases God will be holy. Ganesh Chathurthi Discourse September 03, 1989
13 Team Overview Help with group implementation of three Spiritual Disciplines (Sadhana) Chant 21 Gayatri Mantras daily 15 min of silent sitting or meditation daily 30 min of reading or listening actively to Swami s words Coordinate unity building activities at meetings and retreats Facilitate group logo and name selection Collect personal experiences to present to Swami and share with group Maintain group progress to present to Swami Assist in creating group disciplines

15 Spiritual Discipline To help all of us in the Group, 3 Spiritual disciplines have been chosen
16 21 Gayatri Mantras Daily (at a consistent time) Benefit: Gayatri mantra has three parts: praise, meditation and prayer. First, the Divine is praised, and then it is meditated upon in reverence and, lastly, prayer is offered to the Divine to dispel the darkness of ignorance and to awaken and strengthen the intellect. Chanting of the Gayatri mantra purifies the mind and confers devotion, detachment and wisdom. You should chant the Gayatri mantra everyday, in the morning, noon and evening. (Sathya Sai Speaks: Vol 33) Ideas: Chant with your family Chant with friends in person or on the phone Chant while commuting to work Chant while doing housework Chant while on lunch break
17 15 min of Silent Sitting or Meditation Daily (at a consistent times) Benefit: Quiet the mind Connect with Swami Prepare for silence and sitting on the floor in Prashanti Nilayam Ideas: Heart meditation beneficial for the world (on under meditation at the bottom of the page) Light (Jyothi) meditation (on under meditation at the bottom of the page) In the same place to keep the vibrations and train the body and mind Sit silently or meditate with family or local group Take a trip to a scenic place and meditate in nature
