"The main objective of the Sathya Sai Organisation ... is to help humanity recognise its inherent divinity.(Jan 6, 1975). It is established to translate the principles of love and nonviolence into daily practice."
~Sathya Sai Baba
Since 2000, Agincourt Sai Group has strived to provide aid in one’s spiritual development by following the teachings of Bhagawan Sri Sathya Sai Baba and practicing selfless service and love. Our Centre consists of 4 distinct wings: Devotion, Educare, Seva, and Young Adults. Through these wings, our Centre regularly undertakes various spiritual activities. Agincourt Sai Group is welcoming of all, regardless of religion, nationality, race, gender, and socio-economic status; people from all walks of life are welcome and respected. As Bhagawan has said, “Let the different faiths exist, let them flourish, let the glory of God be sung in all the languages, in a variety of tunes that should be the ideal. Respect the differences between the faiths and recognise them as valid as far as they do not extinguish the flame of Unity.”
The goal of our Centre, and all Sathya Sai Baba Centres across the globe, is to achieve spiritual growth. To accomplish this, our Centre provides various activities that focus on learning and implementing the teachings of Bhagawan Sri Sathya Sai Baba. These activities include studying His literature of all the major religions; devotional singing; and selfless service ranging from a community to a national level.

Men and women sit separately. This protocol is followed in all Sathya Sai Baba functions throughout the world because it reduces worldly distraction and makes it easier to concentrate on the Inner Divine. Usually everyone sits on the floor but chair seating is available for those who cannot sit on the floor. You may also bring a cushion for sitting on the floor.
