Embeddings of compact Sasakian manifolds

Let M be a compact Sasakian manifold. We show that M admits a CR-embedding into a Sasakian manifold diffeomorphic to a sphere, and this embedding is compatible with the respective Reeb fields. We argue that a stronger embedding theorem cannot be obtained. We use an extension theorem for Kaehler geometry: given a compact Kaehler manifolds $X\subset Y$, and a Kaehler form $\omega$ on $X$ which lies in a Kaehler class of $Y$ restricted to $X$, $\omega$ can be extended to a Kaehler form on $Y$.
