Sathya Sai Darshanam – The Beauty Beyond Compare!!!
Sunday, August 11th, 2013
During the most wonderful Divine ordained moments of His darshan in Prasanthi, we have seen many a time such sessions turn out to be ‘open class rooms’, tales that tags the tails of such sessions are great eye openers for man to learn and imbibe… This day, 11 August 2010 was such a thrilling beauty that it appeared that Bhagawan never wanted to leave the dais and the company of devotees…
Given below is an excerpt from the Darshan Story on 11 August 2010 in Prasanthi Nilayam as chronicled by The Prasanthi Reporter…Let’s read..assimilate…live with it and thus manifest HIM, our Beloved Mother Sai!
Let’s re-connect to PRASANTHI DARSHAN UPDATES to connect to THE BEAUTY BEYOND COMPARE!!!
Wed, Aug 11, 2010: During most of the day the sky was overcast and setting the stage for “His entry” came cooling showers just before the scheduled end of the Veda chanting.
Bhagawan emerged at 1741 hrs. with an yellow umbrella cover on top, well received by the multitudes that bursted into spontaneous applause, an act of rejoicing watching His special ‘colourful’ entry.
Veda chanting got a fillip with ‘ Little Hearts’ from Primary School and Easwaramma English Medium School joining en masse with verve and enthusiasm. …And as Bhagawan was moving past, the drizzle turned into lashing rains banging the roof atop with thud lending a natural background score to His Divine Darshan. Completing a full round of darshan Bhagawan came onstage at 1758 hrs. and soon blessings followed signalling further proceedings for the session.
As announced during the previous evening, the Youth from Delhi & NCR (National Capital Region) were to stage a dance drama titled ‘Guru Kripa’. The presentation was based on the life of illustrious Sufi Saint, Bulleh Shah, lived during 17th-18th century, highlighting Guru’s importance in one’s life.
Bringing a modern day scene wherein a youth of the day with overpowering ego forgets social ethics and behavioural norms, the presentation takes the help of the illustrious life of the Sufi Saint to enlighten the youth of the greater importance of Guru Bhakthi. His remorseful father narrates the story of the Saint in an attempt to bring his son back into the right track. Bulleh Shah, against much opposition from his family and society in general, stood by his devotion to his guru, Inayat Shah Quadri, a lower cast, declaring firmly that he would forgo his family and worldly life, but not his “Sai”, who was his revered guru.
Still not convinced, the egotist finally learns his lesson when his discarded teacher pardoned him, despite all the insults meted out to him, saving his former student from the embarrassment of going behind the bars.
The fifty minute presentation was intertwined with melodious and meaningful songs in folk punjabi language, the language that was in used during the time of the Shah. The presentation ended with a group song, in typical sufi tongue, in praise of “Sai”.
Upon the end of the presentation, Bhagawan called the fakir cast onstage and blessed him with a materialised golden chain. Subsequently, Bhagawan came down the stage for a group photo session. It was 1855 hrs. and as indicated by Bhagawan lead bhajan pair bursted open with “Allaho Akbar..” A pause ensued as Bhagawan sat through and soon “Sri Raghavam…” followed and the session continued from there…with an array of bhajans…. In the meantime an ‘instant photo print’ of the materialisation came. The cast was called onstage once again and Bhagawan made over the same to the youth, a bonus blessing with momentous memory for the blessed youth.
After the drama presentation, ‘His drama’ was unfolding. Bhagawan asked for the backroom assistants also to come forward to join the drama cast in the front block…Soon He moved down the dais once again!…for yet another photo session!!
Returning onstage in five minutes Bhagawan sat through… still more to come?!?
Lord’s compassion was filling and fulfilling…Bhagawan was seen giving instructions to the State President, Delhi & NCR…and soon the drama cast in small groups marched onto the stage for yet another “Momentous Moment” with The Divine!!!
These post programme sessions often turn out to be ‘open class rooms’. Tales that tags the tails of such sessions are great eye openers for man to learn and imbibe.
It was 1930 hrs. and Bhagawan asked for Mangala Arathi. Upon accepting Arathi, Bhagawan sat for a while and before leaving the dais He blessed the concourse with abhyahastha. Leaving off, enroute, Bhagawan profusely blessed Lakhwinder Wadali, the Sufi singer who mesmerised the audience with his scintillating sufi rendering on the previous evening. Interacting with the singer, Bhagawan gave him ‘fistfuls’ of Vibhuti prasadam, a sign of His all conquering Love!!! As He was gliding into the ladies’ side, there came an ‘instant’ print of the group photo session…Presenting the same to the State President, Bhagawan moved off, retiring for the day, bringing curtains down on another eventful evening.
