Arjuna received Gitopadesha when crisis was anticipated while we have received Sathyoapadesha even before the crisis was anticipated, echoed the students gratefully reminiscing their great good fortune to be ambassador's of His message.     How impersonal God becomes personal, how Sameepyam and Saroopyam lead to the final states of Saalokyam and Sayoojyam, how dearness to be attained etc., were some of the themes came up during the fifty minute presentation. Some of the musical pieces were You Raise Me Up…, Hum Tere Hey Sai…etc. Earlier, commencing the programme after the initial piece of percussion music, the troupe burst into a melodious piece singing Sai Gayathri followed by a 'heartfelt' depiction of the Meera bhav, the pining of the soul…Darshan Deejo Aao Pyaare…     A Divine Discourse piece was the final item that ended with Bhagawan leading with the Asathoma prayer…     All the participants were clad in golden sarees and the programme had a thematic backdrop, a glass paint piece done based on a Turkish model, signifying Jeevatma's undeterred onward journey, focal point being The Paramatma, that leads one to salvation, the ultimate merger of Jeevatma in the Paramatma. Bhajans continued by the Anantapur Campus and Mangala Arathi was offered at 1805 hrs. The auspicious Makara Sankranthi is a dotted day in the Prasanthi Festive Calendar. As per the convention followed in Prasanthi the Prize Distribution Ceremony for the Annual Sports & Cultural Meet would be help tomorrow morning, commencing at 0830 hrs. In the evening, senior students from the Prasanthi Nilayam campus would be offering a musical dance drama entitled Shankara Digvijayam. II Samastha Lokah Sukhino Bhavantu II

Date: Monday, January 14, 2013 THOUGHT FOR THE DAY Spend your time in the contemplation of the bounty and beauty of Nature spread out before you on earth and sky - green expanses of the crops, cool breezes that waft contentment and joy, the panorama of coloured clouds, the music of the birds and so on. Sing the glory of the Lord as you walk along the path, amidst the fields, the banks and the waterways. Do not talk hatefully in the midst of all this evidence of love; do not get angry, in these placid surroundings; do not disturb the sky with your shouts and curses. Do not pollute the air with vengeful boasts. A seedling needs water and manure to grow and yield rich harvest. The tiny sapling of spiritual yearning for liberation also needs you to do these - set right your habits, purify your conduct and cleanse your behaviour. - Sri Sathya Sai Baba         Date: Sunday, January 13, 2013 Yesterday's thought  To observe a very small particle, you need a microscope; to see a remote object clearly, you need a telescope. These are yantras or instruments. The instruments that help you visualise the Core that has such contradictory attributes of being minuter than the minutest and more magnificent than the most magnificent, are called Mantras - formulae that save you when you meditate on them. They are also called Tantras (ceremonies and rites) when their practical application has to be emphasised. Faith in the efficacy of these Mantras, in the utility of the procedure prescribed, and in the existence of the Core - all of these are essential for success in the great adventure of acquiring the ultimate knowledge; just as faith in the efficacy of the instrument, in the correctness of the procedure, and in the existence of the material one is seeking to know more about, are essential for the scientist. - Sri Sathya Sai Baba       Join Us on Facebook Just a reminder, if you are on Facebook then you should join our Sai Ram Facebook-page.

Love is the very breath of life; each and every one of you are embodiments of Love. Love knows no fear, and so, love needs no falsehood to support it. It is only fear, that makes people warp the face of truth, to make it pleasant for those whom they fear. Love seeks no reward, love is its own reward. Even a small trace of greed for gain (vishaya vasana) degrades love into a bargain over the counter. Love removes all egoism; the self is transcended, forgotten and superseded when there is love. When such pure Love is directed towards the Lord, it is called Bhakthi (Devotion). - Sri Sathya Sai Baba   Join Us on Facebook Just a reminder, if you are on Facebook then you should join our Sai Ram Facebook-page.
