Members come from almost all religions, and even include erstwhile atheists.
Most Centres and Groups also have a lending library, offering videos, books, audio cassettes, as well as other materials free of cost. Any material sold at a Center is offered either at cost or at the lowest possible price. No Center accepts a tax-exempt status, and therefore pays all duties any citizen pays. Visitors are welcome to attend any meeting, all of which are simlilar though worldwide. There are no membership fees of any kind, nor are contributions asked for nor accepted of the public, nor is there ever any kind of fee charged for any activity associated with the name of Sathya Sai Baba.
