The leading cast or the narrator of the dance drama announced that such universal acceptance of God in human form has never occurred in the annals of history. A divine declaration by Bhagawan on who is He was then screened to the audience which set the benchmark for the dance drama. There were two short episodes in the drama, the first was the episode of Upamanyu from the Sivapurana and the second was the episode of Uddhava counselling the Gopikas after being sent by Lord Krishna.

The speciality of this drama was a backdrop of LED screen which beamed crystal clear visuals to the audience. Added to this were two LED screens, one on the gent's side and the other on the ladies side telecasting the proceedings in real time to the audience.

Thu, Nov 18, 2010 85th Birthday News & Photos - Festival of Divine Love:   Ratotsavam is an annual feature that normally comes as a forerunner to the grand Birthday Celebrations of Bhagawan Sri Sathya Sai Baba. ..And ever since its inception many years ago, this festivity has been a fixed schedule for the 18th November. For so many years, this day had been tagged with another big event, Narayana Seva, en mass for the villagers in and around Puttaparthi, where in Bhagawan would present Himself through and through, along with hundreds of University students and sevadal volunteers, held at the Vidyagiri Sports Stadium.

An SSSVIP exhibition of various Indian states is being held in the Sri Sathya Sai Indoor Stadium. Bhagawan graced the occasion, making a surprise visit at the stadium on the 16th evening beyond the sunset. The exhibition is thrown open to the devotees and the timings are:


This morning, at around 0945 hrs. the procession began from the bhajan hall with the idols, mainly Venugopala Swami idol, were taken out to be mounted on the main chariot stationed outside the main gopuram gate. The idols were taken out in a procession with the escort of Vedam and Bhajans by group of students from Sri Sathya Sai Institute of Higher Learning.


Upon mounting the idols on the chariot, coconuts were broken and arathi was offered before the procession continued with great religious fervour attended by students and hundreds of villagers. The ecstatic mood of the village folk dancing to the tune of drumbeats, breaking coconuts and offering arathi enroute, is evidential of the religious fervour attached to the festive occasion.

The Venugopala Swami idol will be mounted at the Pedda Venkama Raju Kalyanamandapa before return procession commences, carrying the Sita Rama idols, a custom that has been in place ever since the Chariot Festival began in Parthi.

As Prasanthi gears up:
"The Burden of the Badge" sounds on the responsibilities of the badge that one wear. The badge under reference is the Sevadal Volunteer Badge of Sri Sathya Sai Seva Organisations and the reference is in connection with the mammoth exercise of celebrating the "Festival of Divine Love" on the occasion of 85th year of Bhagawan's earthly Advent.

The title "The Burden of The Badge" given by biographer writer Prof. N. Kasturi for an exclusive Divine Discourse delivered on the 24th February 1965, was an apt summation into a one-line caption of the role model responsibilities defined by Bhagawan for the 'force', both men and women belonging to Sri Sathya Sai Seva Organisations.---->> Over 30 new photos from Festival of Divine love 16th Nov. - 23rd Nov. 2010 - click here
