September 25th, 2005
It's been a long time since we have come to you with our
updates. These days, Swami is not spending time outside in
the Kulwant Hall. A typical Darshan of Bhagawan these days
consists of one full round during Darshan in the Kulwant
Hall and then Bhagawan goes directly into the interview
room. Later around 4.15 p.m. or 4.30 p.m., He goes inside
the Bhajan Hall and spends a lot of time interacting with
the students and staff over there. In the past few days,
many students and staff have been Blessed with long
interactions with Swami in the Bhajan Hall, including
materializations of rings, chains etc. It is a bonanza for
those seated inside. Outside, we just await completion of
the Bhajans to catch one glimpse of our Lord when He comes
out and gets into the car.
On the 25th, Sunday afternoon, after a long gap, Swami came
outside and sat on the dais. Thanks to a half an hour
Bhangra dance programme organized and performed by the
Institute students. A Bhangra dance teacher from Punjab was
here for the past ten days or so, who offered his services
to train these boys with the basic steps of Bhangra. The
programme packaged a set of dance steps depicting a typical
village scene starting from the sowing of the seeds in the
farm to the joyous time of harvesting. For, after all, the
Punjabis dance the Bhangra to celebrate the harvesting
season. There were around 26 dancers.
On the same day, Puttaparthi had become a very important
place for many ministers. The Government of Andhra Pradesh
is making arrangements to facilitate the movement and
comfortable stay of devotees during the 80th birthday
celebrations of Bhagawan Sri Satya Sai Baba on a grand scale
at Puttaparthi this November. A cabinet sub-committee -
comprising ministers K. Rosaiah, J. Geetha Reddy, N.
Raghuveera Reddy, J. C. Diwakar Reddy and special invitee
Home Minister K. Jana Reddy - held a review meeting with
officials here on Sunday. The ministers also had two
audiences with Bhagawan, in the morning as well as in the
evening. As reported in "The Hindu", 26th Sep 2005, "the
administration has decided to deploy about 3,000 police
personnel for the event. About 300 APSRTC buses would be run
to Puttaparthi from different parts of the State during the
fete and 20 teams of doctors would be formed for the
occasion. The district administration was directed to
complete arrangements like formation or widening of roads,
and repairing sanitation system by October 31st."
