Service in a Sai center is rooted in the principle of selfless service, or "seva," guided by the teachings of Sathya Sai Baba who emphasized that serving humanity is serving God. Activities typically include providing food and essential supplies to the needy, supporting homeless shelters, visiting senior centers and hospitals, environmental clean-ups, and conducting educational programs for children and adults. These projects are carried out with humility and love, involving devotees of all ages, and aim not only to alleviate material hardship but also to foster spiritual growth and unity among participants and recipients alike.
