Dear friends/ @Muthuraji and @suryakala
Am doing 9 thursdays Sai vrat. Coming Thursday (26/Jan/2017)will be my 5th week. By the grace of Sai, I'll be in Shirdi and praying to Sai Baba on that thursday. As I'll not be at home and this is a group tour, am not sure if I can be on fast the whole day Thursday. I want to know if I can skip this week's vrat and continue it from next week? Please help me clarifying this question

Hi andi,

I recently started doing pooja. I have few doubts about Sri Sai Baba Vratham.

1) Can I do 9 thursdays vratham as 9 days vratham (I will start on a thursday an will continue everyday till 9 days).

2) I am going to office, so I should ware shoes. I will leave my shoes and do parayanam. Can I do sai parayanam after leaving shoes without washing legs.

3) can I do parayanam while sitting on chair or Is it must to sit on floor and do parayanam.

4) can I have chicken while doing vratham.

5) I am staying in USA. As everyone knew very well, I cannot donate books and food. So can I do annadham in india(with help of mom).

Please clear my doubts.

Sai Vrat for Nine Thursdays is becoming popular day by day. Many devotees have been benefited by it and the list goes on increasing day by day. But there are many doubts regarding this vrat. We have been receiving many mails with lot of questions and doubts from Sai devotees hence decided to post them on blog instead of answering to all questions individually. We have tried to club as many questions as we could. Still if any of your questions are unanswered or not covered in this post, you can ask by commenting under the post. Please be noted that we are answering to questions/doubts to the best of our knowledge and experience but leave it to Baba to decide whether they right or wrong. Also please pardon us if any of the answers are wrong. Suggestions and corrections are readily welcomed. I request devotees to post their queries/suggestions/corrections as comments to this post only.

1. Where do I get Sai Vrat Katha book?

Many devotees have got desired fruits from this Vrat. By word of mouth it is becoming very popular and it has won trust of many devotees. Every devotee desiring to do the vrat has this foremost question in his/her mind. Well now a days Sai Vrat Katha book is easily available in shops nearby Sai Baba temples in India. Please be noted that Sai Vrat Katha books are not published by Shirdi Sai Baba Sanshtan. For devotees residing abroad I am uploading scanned copy of Sai Vrat Katha book in English, Hindi ,Marathi ,Tamil,Telgu language. With Baba's grace and blessings Sai sister Priya and Shri Rama Rao ji have contributed to this treasure. My hearty thanks to them.

It will be a valuable service if anybody who is reading this post can contribute scanned copy of Sai Vrat book in other language too.

2. Why should I observe fast if not recommended by Baba?

This question will certainly arise in a devotee's mind who has read Sai Satcharitra. I too agree with the same. But also on the other hand I have experienced miracles by doing this vrat. More than materialistic things for which this vrat is generally started , one gets to see spiritual aspects. And devotees get more close to Baba. It is not unknown that Baba pulls His devotees by fulfilling all their wishes and then make them His forever. I request devotees not to do this Vrat just to test Baba. Only thing needed is full faith on Baba and He is sure to sail us across. In the end I leave it to reader's discretion to observe this fast or not.

3. Who can do this Vrat?

Anyone whether male, female and even children can do this Vrat. Old and Sick persons can avoid it. Still if its devotee's wish to do Vrat, Baba will take fullest care! Devotees of any caste/religion/creed can do Vrat only full faith on Baba is required.

4. Should I start this Vrat from any special day?

There is no such rule. It can be started from any Thursday by taking Baba's name and seeking His help and grace for desire for which the Vrat is taken up.

5. What is the procedure of Vrat?

Sai Baba must be worshipped in morning or in evening. Sai Baba's photograph must be placed on a yellow cloth. Clean the photograph with clear water. Tilak of Chandan (sandalwood) and Kumkum must be applied to the photograph of Sai Baba. Yellow coloured flowers or garland must be offered to Sai Baba, incense sticks and lamp must be lighted and then the main story of the vrat must be read. Sai Baba's name must be remembered and then prasad must be distributed.
