The Sri Sai Stacharita is considered to have been divinely inspired by Shirdi Sai Baba. It is a book of his 'leelas', or divine plays and shares real life accounts of miracles, lessons, and words to live by.
Reading, meditating, and absorbing the words is considered a miracle-practice which many people who look to Babaji have experienced miracles as a result. Health, money, relationship, devotion, oneness with God...these miracles and more are said to be associated with reading this divine text.
It is easy to read, and contains inumerable gems. It is recommended those looking to Babaji should read this text as often as they are able, and apply their learnings.
In my own experience of reading, I have found Babaji communicating with me:
+ Guiding me to read certain chapters
+ Making loud noises after reading a line
+ Experiencing countless 'AHA!' moments pertinent to current circumstances
+ Having deep revelations come to me about my life
+ Giving immense clarity on problems I was facing
+ Providing comfort and feelings of peace and bliss
+ And most of all, feeling his presence become more tangible in my life
I highly recommend this as a miracle-manifesting practice. Visualize Babaji's form and ask him to guide you. Then go to the following link and click on the chapter(s) you feel compelled to read.

'Reward of Study' (An excerpt from the Epilogue of the Sri Sai Satcharita)
"Now a few words about the reward you get, from a study of this work. After bathing in the sacred Godavari and after taking the darshan of the Samadhi in the Samadhi-mandir in Shirdi, you should read or hear the Satcharita. If you do this all your threefold afflictions will vanish. Casually thinking about the stories of Sai, you will get unconsciously interested in spiritual life and if you then go on through the work with love, all your sins will be destroyed. If you wish to get rid of the cycle of births and deaths, read Sai's stories and remember Him always; and get yourself attached (devoted) to His Feet. If you dive into the sea of Sai's stories, and then give them out to others, you will get an ever-new flavour of them and save the hearers from perdition.
If you go on meditating on Sai's Form, it will in course of time disappear and lead you into self-realization. It is very hard to know or realize the nature of Self or Brahma, but if you approach through the Sugun Brahma (Sai's Form) your progress will be easy. If the devotee completely surrenders himself to Him, he will lose his individuality and be merged in Him and be one with Him, as the river in the sea. If you thus become merged with Him in any of the three states, viz., waking, dream and sleep, you get rid of the bond of samsara. If anybody after bathing reads this with love and faith,and completes it within a week, his calamities will disappear; or if he hears or reads it daily and regularly all his dangers will be warded off. By its study, a man wishing for wealth will get it and a pure trader, success in his life. He will get the reward according to his faith and devotion. Without these, there will be no experience of any kind.
If you read this respectfully, Sai will be pleased, and removing you ignorance and poverty, He will give you knowledge, wealth and prosperity. With concentrated mind, if you read a Chapter daily, it will give you unbounded happiness. One who has his welfare at heart, should study it carefully and then he will ever remember Sai gratefully and joyfully in birth after birth. This work should be read at home specially on Guru-Pournima (Ashadha full-moon day), Gokul-Ashtami, Rama-Navami and Dasara (Baba's anniversary day). If you study this one book carefully, all your desires will be satisfied and if you always remember Sai's Feet in your heart, you will easily cross the Bhava (Samsar) sagar. By its study, the diseased and sick will get health, the poor wealth, the mean and afflicted prosperity, and the mind will get rid of all ideas and get steadiness."
