Wednesday, September 4th, 2013
This was the day when hundreds of children from various Sathya Sai Schools across India assembled at The Lord’s Feet, seeking His Divine blessings… …and the little hearts blossomed only to bring a smile of their Swami’s beautiful face…
Given below is an excerpt from the ‘Darshan Story’ on 3 September 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!!!
Fri, Sep 03, 2010: Today, in the evening, emerging at 1720 hrs., Bhagawan was ushered into the hall to a Poornakumbha Swagatham followed by a special escort of Vedic procession by a band of children from various Sathya Sai Schools across India, who have come on a Prasanthi Pilgrimage.
Moving on, attending to some devotees and subsequently glancing upon the “Vidya Vihar Team”, arrayed in hundreds, Bhagawan moved past casting His special benedictions upon the flag-bearing children posed at the centre against the backdrop for the day’s programme. Moving on, Bhagawan had an interaction with some of the participants before proceeding to complete the round. Blessing the birthday boys, speaking to the chief organisers at the ladies’ end, Bhagawan turned to the tiny tots from the Primary School, pausing for a while posing them, listening to their chanting encouraging them to chant with added vigour. Moving further into the ladies’ side, Bhagawan turned about to come onto the portico, proceeding to the bhajan hall.
(Performing the Prana Pratishta for the ensuing Shiva Parvathi Kalyanam, scheduled for the next day, blessing the priests with Angavastram Bhagawan came on stage at 1750 hrs. through the doctors’ block )
Emerging in less than ten minutes, Bhagawan came onstage at 1750 hrs. through the doctors’ block.
Veda chanting continued for ten more minutes before the commencement of the scheduled proceedings for the evening.
Over 1400 children from 79 Sathya Sai High Schools across India have come on a pilgrimage, celebrating the ‘Joy of being One in the Divine Presence of Mother Sai’. Beginning the function after invoking initial blessings, a group of children burst open with a song dancing to the tune of “Sathyam Vada Dharmam Chara…Jeevan Daata.” hailing Mother Sai’s glory as the Supreme Lord, the bestower of life!
At the end of a 45-min presentation, Bhagawan moved down the dais, posing for photograph session with the participating children. Returning onstage in ten minutes, Bhagawan sat for some more time, as presentations, sarees and safari pieces for children went for distribution. At 1936 hrs., Bhagawan accepted Mangala Arathi. Asking the children to assemble in the front, Bhagawan graciously permitted the children to sing one Ganesha bhajan before asking for an encore of Arathi at 1945 hrs.
Moving off the dais, Bhagawan glided into the ladies’ side at 1950 hrs. moving towards Yajur Mandiram, retiring for the day.
