Chennai Water Project

 

For decades Chennai was a city without water, many forced to three jugs of water

per family, filled from trucks which transported sadly limited supplies to the

people. Sathya Sai Baba promised to bring water to the community, and the

sparkling flood filled the canal on November 27, 2004, Baba's birthday

according to the Hindu calendar.

Distress and Relief:The Story of the Sathya Sai Baba Water Project

 

One of Sathya Sai Baba's greatest service projects has been his amazing on-going

project to supply fresh drinking water to over 700 remote villages in rural

India. The people of these impoverished villages had for many years been

without drinkable water until 1995 when Swami began construction on this

massive undertaking. This ten-minute film is the story of his wondrous miracle

that solved this long-felt need.

Search presents - Jib Jab's 'Second Term'

[Guest guest]

Sairam brothers & sisters,

 

Wished to share some thoughts about His Projects.

 

We all are aware that Swami's sankalpa in undertaking these projects is, apart

from his love towards us, a huge lesson on how to harness nature's bounties and

use them for the benefit of all of His creatures. The Avatar's intention is to

show us the way, the path. Whilst fulfilling His promise to Mother Easwaramma,

Bhagawan is creating model projects for humanity to witness, learn and emulate.

See the magnitude of vision in each case, the dedication to details, the perfect

planning and organization, the scale of operation, the benefits accruing, the

eco-friendliness, the use of best and latest technology, the timeliness and the

perfect execution, last but not by any means least - management of funds and

resources!!! Each project is a miracle by itself... in this land of mostly

inept and corrupt rulers. Each is a perfect example of successful public -

private enterprise.

 

Like all of His projects, Swami's Sai Ganga project to provide water to Chennai

city is a benchmark for anyone to emulate.

 

Each divine project should serve as an eye-opener to all the ruling governments

on how to serve the society and the nation. Are the govts (and all of us

individuals) learning from this? That is the major test for all of us. Sai

Ganga has solved a portion of the water problem for Chennai. Many other schemes

like the Veeranam project, sea water desalination etc. are languishing due to

bureaucratic and official apathy, along with political gimmicks aimed at vote

gathering. Chennai's water crisis will be fully solved only if innovative, cost

effective and timely methods are adopted to solve these problems. Swami has

shown the way with the wonderfully conceptualised and executed Sai Ganga. The

Andhra government has been magnanimous in permitting the water from there to

flow to Chennai. The Andhra people and officials, in this case, have shown

exemplary attitude of brotherliness. Why? Because it is Bhagawan's project..

Can all states and people show this attitude

in all issues? If we do not, can we call ourselves one nation? Let us ponder on this...

 

The nation will prosper only if we take His lessons to heart and put them to practise....

 

We, brothers and sisters of the Sai family, have a huge responsibility in taking these forward.

 

Jai Sairam,

 

Madhusudhan
