Sri Swamiji authored many books highlighting that Sri Sai Baba’s Mission was to bring together two communities opposed to each other – the Hindus and Muslims – under a common fold, that Baba promoted a religion of love with peace and harmony and that Baba belonged to no particular religion or faith, he was neither Hindu nor Muslim, his birth and early life shrouded in mystery.
