first came to Puttaparthi. However, I knew Subba Rao very well, with whom I have been in close contact for several years. I often went to Subba Rao's room where he lived at the ashram. We talked about Sathya Sai Baba and his spiritual mission. Many Russian groups also visited Subba Rao and received spiritual guidance from him.
Let's sum up the predictions about the birth of Prema Sai Baba. About the time of his next incarnation, Sathya Sai Baba told various people that he could be born in eight years or one year.
About the place of his next birth, Sathya Sai Baba predicted that he would be born near the city of Mandya, Karnataka, but for some he indicated more specifically, the village of Doddamallur.
In fact, all the devotees of the older generation were well aware of all these predictions. In 2016, I met Ramanna, who was Sathya Sai Baba's personal driver in the mid-1980s.
Sathya Sai Baba blessed him to buy a house in the village of Doddamallur back in 2010, a year before he left his body in 2011. Ramanna bought a house in the village of Doddamallur because Sathya Sai Baba revealed to him the secret that his next birth would be in this village.
I was fortunate enough to visit Ramanna's house many times and listen to his reminiscences of Sathya Sai Baba. Sathya Sai Baba passed away on April 24, 2011. Prema Sai Baba was born on June 28, 2012, just over a year later. He was born exactly in the place that Sathya Sai Baba indicated to his closest devotees.
13. Miracles a year before meeting Prema Sai Baba
I first met Prema Sai Baba on March 3, 2016, a few days before the Shivaratri festival. However, my history of interaction with him began a year before in 2015 when Sathya Sai Baba repeatedly appeared to me and my wife, Svetlana, in our dreams, showing us the village and the street where Prema Sai Baba was born. We were even shown the divine boy’s parents.
In another dream, Prema Sai Baba visited my wife and said that he had already been born and was waiting for us. My wife, Svetlana, clearly remembered all the details of that amazing dream including small house and Prema Sai Baba's father, whose name is Mahesh.
To my wife’s surprise, a few months later she went to the very same place seen in her dream, and also saw the very man who is the father of Prema Sai Baba.
I teach meditation practices in the tradition of Kriya Yoga, and I regularly conduct master classes in different cities and countries. In 2015, I held a seminar in India, next to the ashram of Sathya Sai Baba.
At this time, I learned that a number of my students also had mystical dreams where Sathya Sai Baba had also appeared to them. In the dreams, Sathya Sai Baba said he had already been born and was waiting for our arrival to his home.
People saw in their dreams a divine child and his parents, much like the dream my wife and I had. During the mystical dreams, Sathya Sai Baba asked some of my students: “What will you give Prema Sai? He is a child and waiting for gifts!” What an amazing sense of humor.
When Sathya Sai Baba passed away in the spring of 2011, my wife Svetlana prayed to God for the opportunity to meet Prema Sai Baba as soon as possible, and if possible, as soon as he was born. Svetlana wanted to see his divine play as a little Krishna. These prayers were heard.
In July 2015 we arrived at Sathya Sai Baba's ashram where I was leading a two-week Kriya Yoga meditation workshop. That time I came with a group of students who were studying meditation and mantra practice with me.
Once I was meditating in front of the tomb of our beloved Sathya Sai Baba. Suddenly, I had a mystical experience and saw the golden astral body of the boy Krishna hovering in the air right above the tomb; it was a mystical vision of the subtle body of Krishna. I knew right away it was Prema Sai Baba. Telepathically he told me he had already been born and was waiting for me in his house.
Usually, I do not trust such visions because they can be a game of the mind. In this case, it was a very vivid image, and I realized that this was a real message from God. Immediately, I spoke to all members of our group about this mystical experience.
We left the ashram and got into auto rickshaws (tuk-tuk). I asked the driver if he knew about the birth of Prema Sai Baba. The driver confidently replied that he knew that Prema Sai Baba was born and named the village, Doddamallur. I was surprised by this information. It was strange to hear such a response from a rickshaw driver.
A few minutes later, I arrived at a jewelry store owned by an old friend of mine. He was originally from Bangalore but lived in Puttaparthi for many years. I decided to ask him if he knew about the birth of Prema Sai Baba.
The jeweler said he knew that Prema Sai Baba had already been born in the village of Doddamallur in the state of Karnataka. I was very surprised to hear this message. It seemed that everyone except me already knew about this unique event.
I returned to the hotel where I was staying with the group. I asked the hotel manager about the birth of Prema Sai Baba. In response to my question, the manager said that Prema Sai Baba had already been born and lives in the village of Doddamallur in the neighboring state of Karnataka. These events surprised me. Within an hour, three people told me important and valuable information, completely coincidentally.
The next day, I decided
