On this Sunday evening, blessing the weekend assembly of devotees, Bhagawan emerged at 1725 hrs. to the last strains of one-hour Vedam chanting. Completing His round, following this morning's pattern, Bhagawan went bit further into the ladies' side, to return shortly without advancing much, with a "u turn" to come onto the portico. Upon ascending the portico, Bhagawan had a 'detailed' interaction with two of the visiting doctors of SSSIHMS, Prasanthigram, before coming onstage at 1740 hrs through the right of Ganesha. Sitting through the next forty-five minutes, presiding over the bhajans, often reading letters from devotees, Bhagawan called for Arathi at 1825 hrs. Upon accepting Arathi, an interesting session had been ensuing with Bhagawan appeared to have settled for a series of blessings and interactions. Beginning with the day's Rose Beneficiary, a staff working with North Indian Canteen, for whom Bhagawan materialised a Golden Chain followed by Vibhuti Prasadam, Bhagawan had a series of interactions with number of boys who were arrayed seeking Divine Blessings. Interacting with motherly concern, sitting quite patiently often seeking clarifications, Bhagawan materialised a golden ring for a boy, blessing the student profusely. The session continued with many more boys taking their turn until Bhagawan finished blessing the last boy in waiting before moving off the stage at 1856 hrs. For the weekend assembly, it was indeed an interesting session, especially watching The Lord interacting with His chosen instruments, in between materialising gold on the most auspicious Akshaya Trithiya, a very auspicious day as per the Hindu almanac. With the summer's fury grips the whole nation, this "Divine Valley of Peace" is also having her due share bearing the brunt of the sweltering summer. With the temperature mark crossing 42°C, for the devotees' benefit the adjustable roof of the spacious Sai Kulwant Hall went rolled open during the evening bhajans bringing respite from the intense summer. Prasadam was distributed to the assemblage before Bhagawan retired to Yajur Mandiram at 1857 hrs. after a brief one-minute interaction with representatives of "Sai Sannidhi", an in-house alumni group. |
