On this special Navratri festival the UK Grama Seva
group met in the early morning to recite twenty one Omkars and Sri Sathya Sai Suprabhatam.
Being Wednesday and the second day of Navratri the group offered
prayers to the divine mother.
The
group entered the decorated Sai Kulwant hall, where the vedams had
started at 7.30am in front of Bhagawan’s Maha Samadi. The group did
pradakshina of the Mandir following the vedam boys. Some of the boys who
had
previously been on Grama Seva described the time when Swami would stand
at the
edge of the portico blessing all the students to take his message of
love to
remote parts of the villages.
Today the UK Grama Seva boys where responsible for
distributing Bhagawan’s prasadam to a village called Agraharam situated in the
Bukkaputum district. This is a large village with a population of almost 4600
people and 1075 houses. As the vehicles entered the village the groups were
warmly welcomed with flowers and Rangoli patterns. The children gave lots of beaming smiles.
Grama Seva is an opportunity for the UK boys to give and
receive Swami’s love through the villagers. The villagers also received as
Swami himself coming to give them prasadam.
We are extremely grateful to Bhagawan Baba, for creating
this Prema Yajna through this Grama Seva.
In the afternoon, the UK Grama Seva group were enthusiast
and excited in their heart in anticipation of performing a musical programme.
The group has been extremely fortunate to have Miss Roopa Panesar join the
group for this programme. The programme was warmly received and enjoyed,
particularly the performance by Miss Roopa Panesar on sitar.
The programme began with vedams. This was followed by an
instrumental rendition of Raag Malkauns on the sitar as well as popular bhajans
which was particularly enjoyed by devotees as they clapped along doing the
performance. Before the programme finished with bhajans and Aarti the group performed a medley of fast tempo bhajans.
