Guest guest Posted October 10, 2009 Report Share Posted October 10, 2009 Om Jai Sai RamMy Humble and Heartfelt Koti Pranams at the Divine Lotus Feet of Swami.The festival of Dasara, a typical in Prasanthi Nilayam by its conduct and style, brings nostalgic memoirs of the grand festivity of olden days in the immediate Divine Presence. The festivity would get much deserved majesty and grandeur those days with an array of activities tagged to it, apart from the Veda Purusha Saptaha Jnana Yajna that has been a traditional practice once the same was a revived after a short breakage. Dasara of olden days would be a grand spectacle with the spiritual fervour of tens and thousands of devotees thronged to Prasanthi Nilayam met with the benevolence of Greater Heaven resulting in shower of Supreme Benediction.The beginning of Vasanta Ritu (spring) and Sharath Ritu (autumn) are two very important events in the Bharatiya Calendar, for they not only signify the change of season but their consequent effect on the human body and mind. These two periods are taken as sacred opportunities for the worship of the Divine Mother in the form of Durga, Lakshmi and Saraswathi in the Bharatabhoomi or India. That is why the festival of Dashara (ten days) or Navaratri (nine nights) is an important festival celebrated all over India with piety and grandeur. At Prasanthi Nilayam, especially during the Sharath-Navaratri that falls every year in or around September - October, people gather in thousands to pay their homage to the Divine Mother incarnated as Bhagawan Sri Sathya Sai Baba. Over the past many years, the festival of Dasara in Prasanthi Nilayam has been closely associated with the ‘Veda Purusha Sapthaha Jnana Yagna’, the week-long sacrificial ritual conducted in the Divine Presence, for the welfare of the whole world. I am attaching zip file containing photos of ‘Veda Purusha Sapthaha Jnana Yagna’, at Prasanthi Nilayam in the Divine abode of Swami as a power point presentation with a background Devotional Song "Shiva Mana Mohini Sambhavi Shankari.mp3"I request every Sai Brothers/sisters to view the same and get bliss from SwamiOm Jai Sai Ram Ramesh Naikrameshsairam Connect more, do more and share more with India Mail.
