Burra Katha Presentation
Saturday, August 27, 2011
“My Life is My Message” is probably the most powerful quote of Bhagawan who always lived His life as an example for humanity. Respect to the mother, motherland and mother tongue were among the high principles He practised and taught. Therefore,, Bhagawan always encouraged His students to learn the folk arts of the land. Burrakatha sessions in Prasanthi hold a special significance, as, on most occasions, it is Bhagawan who ‘demands’ the same, selecting the theme and title by Himself. Ever since it’s grand entry into the precincts of Prasanthi Nilayam, this popular folk art of Andhra Pradesh has earned the status of ‘Divine Folklore’, earning the attention and grace of Bhagawan.
