Guest guest Posted November 4, 2009 Report Share Posted November 4, 2009 For the benefit of those who did not visit the official site Bhagawan's journey to Maharashtra with picture attached is being sent in the form of emails to you all.... A Glittering Musical Twlight Posted at 13:50 Hrs. on 29th Oct 2009 On the first day of Bhagawan’s Pune visit, the evening descended on an eager expanse of devotees – most of whom had waited in the scorching sun since 12 noon. The setting was perfect. Cool fresh evening breeze and the tender twilight of the setting sun The evening programme commenced with Bhajans sung mellifluously by the Bhajan singers of the Sri Sathya Sai Seva Organisation. Vinayaka Vinayaka, Antaranga Sai, Madhusudana Muralidhara, Vithala Narayana, Allah ho tum Easwar ho tum, Hare Krishna Hare Krishna, Pyare Nandalal darshan dijo, Hari anandamaya jaya Narayana infused life into the devotees. When Bhagawan arrived at 6.09 pm, the increase in the tempo of ‘Swagatam, shubha swagatam’ was enough to disclose the sheer joy of the devotees. Swami then permitted the ‘Shri Hari Bhajan Mandal’ of Hadshi to sing the Abhangs ‘To paha, aala Vithala’ and ‘Ek gao aamhi Vithobache naav’. The artists of the evening – Padmashree Smt. Kavita Subramaniam, Kum. Sapna Mukherjee, Shri Nitin Mukesh sought Swami’s blessings and were rewarded with Paadnamaskar by Bhagawan. Kum. Sapna Mukherjee sought the blessings of Swami for her new album ‘Sai Krishna’ in which Shri Nitin Mukesh and she have sung Bhajans. The evening drowned into a musical ecstasy as both man and God celebrated their ever- lasting cosmic bond. Chords to touch the soul – this was a mass elevation of mind and spirit with Kavita’s ‘Easwaramma tera Sai’, Nitin Mukesh’s “Jyot se Jyotâ€, Sapna Mukherjee’s “Payoji Maine…†among other songs. Swami acknowledged Kavita Subramaniam’s soulful rendition of “Sakshata Parabramha Sai†by applauding at the end of her Bhajan and was seen chanting the introductory Shloka of ‘Twameva Mata, Pita Twameva’ with Shri Nitin Mukesh. Sharing her ecstatic feelng the singer was elated at expressing her grateful thanks to Bhagawan. Seasoned devotee that she is, she summed up her feeling: “Do not ask me how it feels…I am overwhelmed and grateful to Baba for giving me this opportunity to sing. I am fortunate to sing even a line before Himâ€. Nitin Mukesh, son of legendary singer of yester years, Mukesh, was candid in responding: “Music is the language of Gods. Baba is the source of music. I lost my mother last year and since then I have felt very lonely. But today I feel that I have found Godâ€. The artistes were blessed and felicitated by Bhagawan after the performance. The programme concluded with offering of Mangala Aarti to Bhagawan. Talking about discipline that is the hallmark of Sathya Sai related activities, a devoted volunteer had something interesting to say: “It is a miracle that in such a humongous gathering , complete with patients, children and the aged, not one act of indiscipline conducted. This is the mesmerism of the Divineâ€, said Ms. Pai. The much awaited inauguration of the triune temple, Murthi Sthapana and Pranprathistha of Lord Siddhivinayak, Sri Shirdi Sai Baba and Sri Vitthal Rukmini was done by the Divine Hands on the morning of 29th October 2009 attended by a vast concourse of devotees.
