Kancheepuram Parthi Yatra...

 
2,200 devotees from Kancheepuram North and South districts of Tamil Nadu have come on a chartered train to Prasanthi Nilayam. This train was specially arranged for their pilgrimage to Prasanthi Nilayam. They will be participating in all the devotional programmes on 9th and 10th February 2013.

Kancheepuram Parthi Yatra…
 
It is noteworthy to mention here that out of the 2,200 devotees, 1,500 of them are visiting Prasanthi Nilayam for the first time. In the morning, these devotees (gents) sang Bhajans. The speaker who made an introductory note mentioned that they had not come to this place with any expectations, because they are incapable of asking anything from the Lord. All they want is to spiritually recharge themselves and that they would come again and again.
 
 
Kancheepuram Parthi Yatra…
 
The first programme for the evening was a bouquet of devotional songs titled "Nadopasana." Starting their performance with salutations to Lord Ganesh with the song "Gajananam Bhuta Ganadhi Sevitam," they continued on a high note with the famous Tamil devotional, "Marutamalai Mamamaniye Murugaiah," a song sung by the Carnatic classical music virtuoso Madurai Somasundharam in many concerts. They followed it up many other famous numbers which included Telugu songs too. To mention a few, "Kannan Vandan Inge Kannan Vandan" (little child Krishna has come here), "Pahi Rama Prabhu," "Sevaiye Namathu Padaiyam Sevaiye Namathu Vazhkaiyam (service is our way of life and service is our life) …
 
Kancheepuram Parthi Yatra…
 
The next programme was a lively dance performance "Kalinga Mardhanam." The very name Krishna brings delight. The Avatar descends on earth when man forgets the divine. Swami says, "When Krishna is born in the cellar of our minds, the darkness is dispelled." The innumerable Leelas of Krishna were performed to remove the veil of ignorance in humanity. What followed was another equally delectable dance performance "Sai Premaye Veda Saramu" by the students of Bal Vikas and Sri Sathya Sai Human Values Excellence. The latter was formed on 19th January 2011 to uplift students from economically backward sections and train them on ethical values.
 
Kancheepuram Parthi Yatra…
 
The presentation based on the theme of Bhagawan's Avatarhood, Veda Poshana and Bhakta Rakshana (nurturing of Vedas and protection of devotees).  The crescendo of this performance was reached when a student dressed as Bhagawan officiated a Yajna as Bhagawan does on the occasion on Veda Purusha Saptaha Jnana Yajna. At the end of the evening's performance, there were a few Bhajans as clothes were distributed to the cast. The programme came to a close with distribution of Prasadam to the entire gathering and Arati.

THOUGHT FOR THE DAY
A person once told Dr. Johnson, the famous English thinker, that he could seldom get time to recite the Name of God, what with the hundreds of things he had to do from morning till nightfall and even far into the night. Dr. Johnson replied with another question. He asked how millions of people found space to live upon the face of the earth, which is two-thirds water and the rest is too full of mountains, deserts, forests, icy regions, river beds, marshes and similar impossible areas. The questioner said that man somehow struggled to find living space. So too, said Dr. Johnson, man must somehow find a few minutes a day for prayer to the Lord. Keep the Name and Form of your choice ever in your consciousness. The Name must be as constant as breathing. And for this, practice is essential.

Yesterday's thought
You are as distant from the Lord, as you think you are; as near Him, as you feel you are. The distance from Me to you is the same as the distance from you to Me, is it not? You complain that I am far from you, though you are approaching nearer and nearer. How can that be? I am as near you, as you are near to Me! Nearness to the Lord is won by Devotion, which cannot be steady until you get rid of the feelings of 'I' and 'Mine'. Look upon joy and grief as teachers of hard-work and balance. Grief is a friendly reminder, a good taskmaster, even a better teacher than joy. The Lord grants both protection and punishment – for, how can He be the Lord, if He does not insist on strict accounting and strict obedience?

THOUGHT FOR THE DAY
A renunciant couple were once proceeding through a thick jungle on a pilgrimage to an inaccessible shrine. The husband saw on the footpath a precious stone, shining brilliantly when the Sun's rays fell upon it from between the leaves. He hastily threw some sand over it with the movement of his foot, so that his wife may not be tempted to pick it up and become a slave to the tinsel. The wife saw the gesture and chided the husband for still retaining in his mind, a distinction between sand and gold. For her, both were the same. This habit of judging and labelling others is a prevalent practice today. What can you know of the inner working of another's mind?
