Sai Baba Darshan update + photos +wallpaper

[Guest guest]

Tuesday, August 19, 2008 : 19th Aug. was an wonderful evening for all to remember. At about 4:15pm, Swami came for the darshan rounds. A big gaping space was left on the ladies side and Swami seemed tempted to go straight to the interview room after the ladies side. He cut through the detour and did the same. But unfortunately, God is bound by Love and devotion! Just as fire cant help burning and water can help but wet things, God cannot just help but shower His grace. As He has said in such reassuring words, "If you need me, you deserve me." These days especially, the gents side gets starved of close darshan whenever Swami

cuts to the interview room after the ladies side. And so, it was no surprise that Swami decided to feed them all with a feast today! Before going into the interview room however, Swami was accompanied by the senior teachers from the School of Business Management of the University. They prayed for His Blessings and Grace for the MBA anniversary day which falls on the 21st of August. Swami interacted with them for about 5 minutes and blessing them with loving words and Padanamaskar, Swami went into the interview room.

After a short while, Swami came out slowly to the stage from the gents side via the portico. He came front till the railings and then sat there gently swaying to the tunes of the Vedic chants. It is such a satisfying feeling to have the great Lord Himself "swaying to the tunes" of your chants! And that too with a smile dancing on those lovely lips. With a sweeping glance, He graced everyone in the hall. He suddenly beckoned to His left and to the pleasant amazement of everyone, He came down the central ramp and began moving around the students. He began His rounds where He had left off during the previous trip! Slowly moving into the gents side, He began to ask for and collect letters. It is a great joy for all when Swami begins such rounds.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

It was a beautiful and touching sight as people rejoiced at His close proximity. He moved over to the students' side where there were letters galore awaiting His attention. Each and every letter got the attention it deserved. The birthday boys and boys with trays were blessed. He passed by the Veda group and was soon engaged by a group of boys who also prayed for MBA day celebrations. Swami interacted with them and then moving further along the boys, materialized a gold chain for one of them. Thus having completed the rounds, He was headed towards the interview room. But then, a subtle movement of His eyes indicated that He wanted to Grace the ladies too with a bonus darshan round. And so, it was round 2 for the women.Swami moved along the corridors and continued taking letters. Completing that, He moved along the students back towards the bhajan hall. Not leaving anything incomplete, He took a round in the bhajan hall too! Then He

topped it by moving through the upper portico. Surely not only the darshan-thirsty, but also the darshan-greedy would have been satiated today. It was 5:30 pm when the bhajans began and they continued till 6:00 pm when Aarthi was taken.A Wonderful, Divine and Joyous Day for everyone to remember and Cherish.
