Guest guest Posted January 12, 2009 Report Share Posted January 12, 2009 When the Sports Meet first started in 1983 there were no opening Ceremonies as such as they are today, It was only 1987 that Swami gave the wonderful idea of the Students of Swami's Institutions showing their wonderful talent to everyone present and from then onwards the Sports meet Programmes have become a part and parcel of the major Programmes in Prasanthi Nilayam. Every single student is overcome with joy as it is the time when they get to showcase their Wonderful talents before Swami's Divine Presence. Swami also tells the student that they should come up with new Ideas every time to show their talents. So over the years there have been wonderful Programmes like Para Glyding to Bike Stunts to some Wonderful Cultural Programmes which have made Swami and everyone very happy. This year also the Sports Meet got of to a Colourful and wonderful start in the Divine Presence of our Beloved Lord. Swami opened the Sports Meet by Hoisting the University Flag by Remote control and by releasing Pigeons. Bhagawan was welcomed by the Students on Motorbikes into the Stadium and after the Traditional March pasts by all the Students involved, the Programmes started which left everyone spellbound. There were wonderful Yoga feats like Surya Namaskar performed with the greatest ease after many hours of practise. It was followed by Wonderful feats on Motorbikes by Boys and on Autos by the Girls of the Ananthapur campus. The Bike feats were enthralling and captured the hearts of everyone present. Apart from the Bike stunts, the students also gave a wonderful Performance on Poles and ladders among other things. There was also a wonderful Presentation of KALARI a Kerala Martial art. This was followed by Gymnastics, Lion Dances and other feats. The Whole morning programme finished at 11 AM. The Evening Programme was by the Sri Sathya Sai Primary school, After Swami arrived at 4.15 PM, Bhagawan was escorted onto the Shanthi Vedika by young Gymnasts on Cartwheels. The Primary School's Hour long Programme included Gymnastics, Mass Drills and also some wonderful performances on Roller Blades. Swami was very happy and blessed everyone, The Programme ended at 5.20 PM. A Wonderful Start to the Annual Sports Meet with some Great Programmes lined up in the evening in Kulwanth Hall.
