Guest guest Posted February 19, 2005 Report Share Posted February 19, 2005 Dear Sai Brothers and Sisters, SAI RAM. LET BHAGAWAN'S BLESSINGS AND GRACE SHINE ON EACH AND EVERYONE OF YOU. The Main objective of me giving you an account of Bhagawan's divine leela's in Venkatagiri is to relive Bhagawan's Great Truths some of which not recorded. It must be kept in mind that Bhagawan stayed for very long periods of time in The Palace of the Raja Of Venkatagiri and performed great miracles Which I felt should be told to everyone. In May 1964,Bhagawan took a group of people to the Outskirts of Venkatagiri for a Pleasant trip. It was on one of these Trips that Bhagawan had materialised from the Sand, A magnificent gold coated Statue of Lord Rama, the Family deity of the King. This statue still adorns the Puja room of the Palace at Venkatagiri. On this particular trip Bhagawan was in a jovial mood,and after a few minutes when Everyone had partaken of some delicacies, Bhagawan told the Group of around 20 people that he would give them anything that They wanted, 3 people asked for Alphonso Mangoes, they got it by a wave of the Divine hand, 2 Young Men fearlessly said that they wanted grapefruits and they got them, After everyone's wishes were fulfilled, Bhagawan asked Rangaiah, Who drove Bhagawan's Car whenever he came to Venkatagiri, as to what he wanted, Rangaiah in all his humility said "Bhagawan, there is no temple for yours for us to pray in this village, Please let us construct a temple for you", Swami then said, "No one should built temples for me, Wherever Seva is done, that is my temple, So there will be a Seva Samithi in my name here ", Saying that he created a magnificent small brass statue of Himself and gave it to the Raja and said that a Seva Samithi should be constructed and this Statue installed there. When Bhagawan came the next time in 1965, he inaugurated the Seva Samithi, the first one that Bhagawan did. In a Short speech of about 3 minutes Bhagawan said : PEDDALU,PILAKAYALU (ELDERS AND CHILDREN ), SWAMI DOES NOT COME AND OPEN ANY BUILDINGS FOR FUN, FOR EVERYTHING THERE IS A PURPOSE, FROM THIS BUILDING WILL RISE THOUSANDS OF SEVA SAMITHI'S WHERE ANYONE AND EVERYONE WILL PRAY FOR THE WELFARE OF THE WORLD. SEVA IS LOVE, DO SEVA AND REAP THE BENEFITS FROM THE LORD, SWAMI MIGHT NOT VISIT THIS SMALL TEMPLE AGAIN ,BUT SWAMI WILL ALWAYS BE HERE IN THIS ROOM,WHENEVER PRAYERS ARE HELD HERE, THAT IS SWAMI'S LOVE, HE IS THERE WHEREVER PEOPLE TAKE HIS NAME. BE HAPPY. So saying Bhagawan saying the Melodious "Govinda Hare, Gopala Hare" and the evening came to a close. Swami did not open the Seva Samithi at the Request of the Raja as everyone would have been thinking , but at the request of a simple person with Love in his heart, that was enough to Move Bhagawan's Heart.
