Guest guest Posted April 2, 2004 Report Share Posted April 2, 2004 Shweta, I read your e-mail with great delight. I had the opportunity in giving Swami letters personally when I was in India. He took it most graciously and I loved the moment when the letter exchanged hands. Now ever since I have been staying in the USA, the opportunity of giving letters personally has stopped. But I write to him and send the letter by registered post to the Prashanti Nilayam address. At times, I have written to his Brindavan address when Swami is in Bangalore. I would encourage you to write to him either to the address in Prashanti Nilayam or Brindavan. As you may be aware, Swami is currently in Brindavan. Address of Puttaparthi: Prashanti Nilayam P.O. Puttaparthi Anantapur District Andhra Pradesh - 515134 Address of Brindavan: Trayee Brindavan Kadugodi P.O. Bangalore 560067 Please do let me know if you may need any additional information.

Guest guest Posted April 2, 2004 Report Share Posted April 2, 2004 With Swami there is no postal service - you will better understand this when you visit Parthy - that Swami walk on earth but operates everywhere at all times. To you I will suggest that you write all that you want to Him and seal the cover and put that on your prayer alter. I recall Swami telling a devotee that He receives every letter as it is written and that there was no need to hand them over to Him, but He still receives physically to just please us and make us happy.

Guest guest Posted April 3, 2004 Report Share Posted April 3, 2004 You may address letters to : Bhagawan Sri Sathya Sai Baba PRASANTHI NILAYAM Ananthapur Dist, Andhra Pradesh or Bhagawan Sri Sathya Sai Baba Brindavan Ashram Kadugudi Whitefield PO Bangalore You can also keep a copy of the letter near the photo in your pooja mandir. Swamy reads. But swamy has said that the moment your thoughts are put in paper it has already reached Him. According to my experience it is with intense total faith that you put in your letter that results will come from Swami. We are negative and he is positive and when our agony meets his Grace results flow.

Guest guest Posted April 3, 2004 Report Share Posted April 3, 2004 shweta, sairam. you have expressed your desire to write to swami.please do write to swami.swami answers our prayers when we pray to him with all fervour from the depth of our hearts but swami does mention that we need to express ourselves thro our letters when we earnestly feel like as it signifies the synchrony of thought,word and deed. Swami does also mention that he receives the original copy as soon as you start writing the letter..what we send is the xerox copy. swami answers our prayers before we could actually post the letter. he gives us the delight but asking us to write the letter and also answering yhe prayers..it is lords leela...he does everything and makes us feel good it is like a sweet pat from a beloved mother. i used to sometimes wonder why the lord wants us to write despite his all knowing, all pervading nature.... if that is the case why should we all crave for the blissful darshan of swami in his orange robe....cant we do that by just closing our eyes but can it replace the bliss of his darshan...like wise we do need to write to swami although it is his will.....that is when we express ourselves totally and it is a real form of surrender. lord sai bless you and all. dr.srinivasan vaidyanadeswaran --- shweta govil <shwetagovil wrote: > Dear All, > > Sairam, > > I have never been to Parthy but i am sure some time > in the future Baba will surely give me a chance to > see him LIVE !! > > I watch his programms on Sanskaar channel regularly > and I just love the Charisma on his face....I have > seen in that a lot of devotees give him letters > ....May be in that they write about their love for > baba, their problems etc..... > > Even I want to write a letter to him but i don know > where to send it !!!! > > One of my Sai brother also suggested that I write > to SAI about all that i have to tell him.....and i > liked the suggestion ! > > I was wondering if any one of U cud help me/guide me > on where to send this letter....(the address) > > I shall be ever grateful to U if u cud help... > > Jai SAI RAM, > > Shweta Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted April 4, 2004 Report Share Posted April 4, 2004 Dear Shweta, regarding your wish to write to Sai Baba, I would like to tell you how I feel about it. Especially if you are still a fairly new devotee, then you feel that you want to convey your feelings , desires and problems to Swami . You have not yet quite understood that He is all-knowing. You are reaching out to Him and He responds. It is like His saying "You make one step towards Me and I will make a Hundred towards you." When you write, you wholly concentrate on Him and you go deep into your own soul to convey to Him your feelings. It is not a superficial talk, but a deep prayer, and that He hears and responds. I used to write almost every week in the beginning, so much so, that once He came into my dream. I told Him in the dream that I had seen my mother (who had passed away many years agao) amongst the devotees. I told this to Swami (in my dream) and He said, "Yes, I know, she has written 50 letters to me". Actually He wanted to tell me, that I had written 50 letters to Him. - On another occasion He told me during an interview that He knows my handwriting. So, writing a letter to Swami from the bottom of your heart is really a good thing and it gives you a lot of satisfaction and you will see His response.

Guest guest Posted April 4, 2004 Report Share Posted April 4, 2004 sairam brothers and sisters, i would like to share some more thoughts regarding writing letters to swami. it was in 1997 that i entered swamis fold.i wanted to persue my career in psychiatry or anasthesia but as i was not a good academician in college i lacked confidence totally...i was disillusioned. then came the lord..i took my younger brother to sai bhajans as he was in bala vikas and slowly i felt that swami was calling me to parthi...i slowly started to play mirudangam in bhajans and started enjoying singing bhajans.... my brother was the messenger sent by swami to make me enter his divine fold( we were not sai devotees then as a family)...( when i was in school, i remember once protesting to my tamil teacher who was an athiest,talking wrong things about swami...) istarted off to parthi with one of my close friend.he was not a fervent sai devotee then but it was gods plan. when i had the first darshan of swami i felt he was my saviour. i longed for the first or second row to have a close darshan..it did not happen...i felt very depressed... i even told my friend whether there was any way i could meet swami personally( i was over ambitious)......i remember my friend telling me that swami was not an MLA or MP to be influenced..he said this wittingly. the night before the last darshan, iwrote a brief letter to swami from the depth of my heart after my friend slept and cried badly...i did not want my friend to know that i was crying... the next day morning i got the second row and my friend got the first...he even asked me if we could swap places..but i said if thats sais will let it be(the first step towards surrender) swami came...it was my last darshan..i had to give the prayer to swami....will swami take my letter? SWAMI TOOK MY LETTER AS THE LAST LETTER FOR THE DARSHAN WITH A SHARP LOOK INTO MY EYES...THE LOOK HAD COMPASSION,ANGER,LOVE,AFFECTION,WARMTH AND WHAT NOT.....ALL THESE PUT IN ONE SHARP LOOK.... I GATHERED THAT THE LOOK IMPLIED ...I KNOW YOU MAN FOR MANY THOUSAND YEARS EVEN BEFORE YOU KNEW ME...I WANTED A SIMPLE ACT OF SURRENDER FROM YOU AND SO I TESTED YOU... since that day in 1997 i have been enjoying swamis presence every day in my life. i did my DPM and now iam working as a trainee in psychiatry in essex,uk.my friend who i have mentioned is doing his surgery training and we are just half an hour away by bus... the road from disillusion to recovery because of the lords mercy.. AS A PSYCHIATRIST I UNDERSTAND THAT WHEN WE WRITE A LETTER TO SWAMI AND CRY FOR HIS DIVINE INTERVENTION, SWAMI TAKES FULL CHARGE OF OUR SUFFERINGS AND MAKES US FEEL LIGHTER....WITH TEARS, OUR EGO,WHICH IS A MAJOR IMPEDIMENT TO SPIRITUAL PROGRESS, DISSOLVES AND WE FIND OUR UNION WITH SWAMI...WHEN WE IDENTIFY OURSELVES WITH SWAMI,COMES DETACHMENT WHICH SWAMI WANTS FROM US EVERY DAY...WHEN WE DETACH WE ARE NO LONGER TROUBLED BY PLEASURE OR PAIN AS THE LORD TAKES OVER AND WE ARE BLESSED TO BE ABLE TO TREAT PLEASURE AND PAIN EQUALLY....FINALLY NO WORRIES AT ALL AS WE ARE IN A STATE OF BLISS.. IT IS VITAL FOR US TO EARNESTLY WRITE TO SWAMI WHAT WE WANT,HOW WE WOULD LIKE TO CHANGE IN LIFE AND THE LORD WILL LOOK INTO IT,AS IT IS SOAKED IN SINCERITY. THE LORD WILL ANSWER OUR PRAYERS AND CHANGE THINGS AT WILL AND FOR THAT KARMA WHICH MIGHT HAVE TO BE ENDURED,THE LORD WILL GIVE US ABSOLUTE STRENGTH TO FIGHT IT. I PERSONALLY HAVE NOT FULFILLED SOME PROMISES WHICH I GAVE TO SWAMI IN THE HEAT OF THE MOMENT IN 1997... NOW I FEEL THAT I HAVE NOT BEEN CHEATING SWAMI BUT MYSELF.. AS TAGORE SAID WHERE TIRELESS STRIVING STRETCHES ITS ARMS TOWARDS PERFECTION...IF WE WANT TO CHANGE OUR LORD WILL GUIDE US...NOW I UNDERSTAND THAT I SHOULD NOT MAKE ANY PROMISES IN THE LETTERS WHICH I CANT KEEP TO FINISH IT IS IMPORTANT TO KEEP WRITING TO SWAMI OUR EARNEST DESIRES,WISHES,LONGINGS,GUILT AND REPENTENCE..TO TREAT HIM AS A TRUE FRIEND...THE LORD IS MATCHLESS IN HIS FRIENDSHIP...HE IS THE UNIVERSAL PSYCHIATRIST..HE ALWAYS LISTENS. dr.srinivasan vaidyanadeswaran --- Malini Banerjee <malinibanerjee wrote: > sai ram your mail was very touching ........it is > true that swami gets to know about our letter the > moment we start writing it .....i too have the same > feeling ....whenever i sit down to write something > ...i feel baba is already reading it ....i feel as > if i am sitting right in front of baba and talking > to him ...i feel his presence > sai ram > malini > > srinivasan vaidya <srinibalaji2000 wrote: > shweta, > sairam. > you have expressed your desire to write to > swami.please do write to swami.swami answers our > prayers when we pray to him with all fervour from > the > depth of our hearts but swami does mention that we > need to express ourselves thro our letters when we > earnestly feel like as it signifies the synchrony of > thought,word and deed. > Swami does also mention that he receives the > original copy as soon as you start writing the > letter..what we send is the xerox copy. > swami answers our prayers before we could > actually > post the letter. > he gives us the delight but asking us to write the > letter and also answering yhe prayers..it is lords > leela...he does everything and makes us feel good > it is like a sweet pat from a beloved mother. > i used to sometimes wonder why the lord wants > us to write despite his all knowing, all pervading > nature.... if that is the case why should we all > crave > for the blissful darshan of swami in his orange > robe....cant we do that by just closing our eyes but > can it replace the bliss of his darshan...like wise > we do need to write to swami although it is his > will.....that is when we express ourselves totally > and > it is a real form of surrender. > lord sai bless you and all. > > dr.srinivasan vaidyanadeswaran > > > > --- shweta govil <shwetagovil wrote: > > Dear All, > > > > Sairam, > > > > I have never been to Parthy but i am sure some > time > > in the future Baba will surely give me a chance to > > see him LIVE !! > > > > I watch his programms on Sanskaar channel > regularly > > and I just love the Charisma on his face....I have > > seen in that a lot of devotees give him letters > > ....May be in that they write about their love for > > baba, their problems etc..... > > > > Even I want to write a letter to him but i don > know > > where to send it !!!! > > > > One of my Sai brother also suggested that I write > > to SAI about all that i have to tell him.....and > i > > liked the suggestion ! > > > > I was wondering if any one of U cud help me/guide > me > > on where to send this letter....(the address) > > > > I shall be ever grateful to U if u cud help... > > > > Jai SAI RAM, > > > > Shweta Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
