Guest guest Posted June 18, 2005 Report Share Posted June 18, 2005 Dear Sai Brothers and Sisters, The idea of doing collective prayer sounds really wonderful. If it is not too late, please add in my son's name Siddharth. Thank you Sai Ram, Love, Bindu Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted June 21, 2005 Report Share Posted June 21, 2005 Sai Ram Divine brothers and sisters, Today is Pournami,the full moon. As everyone knows the auspiciousness of the Full Moon, a thought just came to my mind after prayer this morning. Wld it be possible for everyone if not for some in this prayer group to add the Full Moon day which falls only once a month in addittion to what we'rr doing on Sundays and Thursdays?? I understand that not everyone wld be able to do it due to their other duties and commitments. But how abt those brothers and sisters who can? We use to have a yagna once a month on Pournami or Full Moon dedicated to the world when I was in S'pore. The reason being, there's so much divine energy generated and ever- flowing on this particular day. Moreover there rr alot of pooja activities in all Hindu temples for most deities like, Ganesha, Shiva, Nayarana,Parvathi,etc and also in Prasanthi Nilayam, I think( based on 1 article I read recently). Not to forget the Satya-Narayana Pooja that is conducted in Sai Centres. Full moon days are important in Guru poojas. It is definitely a day we ought to consider and use for the maximum benefit of the well-being and peace of the people, the world and Baba. Why put all the divine energies so immensely pouring on this day to a waste? Full Moon/Pournami is only once a month! Please think abt it. If agreed we can do it everymonth. Thank u. With divine love, Anita Sakthi Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted June 21, 2005 Report Share Posted June 21, 2005 I think it is a good idea- Yes definetely I think we can make it once a month by His grace ,so could you please let us know when will be the next full moon night Pournami then we can do collectively once a month. Yes from my side let us hear from all our brother's and Ssiter's.

Guest guest Posted June 21, 2005 Report Share Posted June 21, 2005 Om Shri Sai Ram, SaiRam Anita Sakthi, that will be a very good idea, the electro magnetic strenght is immense on every Paurnami therefore perform any pooja or prayer will have a greater effect and vibration.

Guest guest Posted June 22, 2005 Report Share Posted June 22, 2005 my dear anita and the sai prayer group too, I like very much this blessed idea of the sathynarayana day and the poornim worship , my son who is 9 years old allways tell me :mummy tommorrow is fullmoon day we must to make sweetballs of coconut and sweet milk for ganesh ..." I have a vaishnava calendar and in this you will find the poornim days,the ekadasis, the umas day,the chands days,even in wath kind of sankranti are we now,a wath time you must to break the fast,when you make ekdasi ...my dears sisters and brothers and now to share this holy day of fullmoon with all of you is very auspicious for me , the last ekadasi was in 18 past saturday, this was pandava nirjala ekadassi, NIRJALA fast even of water, and this is the most sacred because if along the year for some reason you broke any ekadasy if you do this pandava ekadasi you restore all the pasts ekadasi that you broke I like to follow all this vedic things not for be a fanatic person but i find beautifull meaning behind every act of this , and my soul is very happy to follow this path . About the Thursday , you have my vote ,of course. as SWAMI said: " ... and you bharatiyas whom have the same govinda as god and are so afortunade this is like to take a express train to the eternity, but in others gods you must to change the trains to get THIS express..." for this reason i like too all this holy DAYS, of course this don`t meaning that i don`t like the other religions . and the past sunday prayer was fantastic, THANK YOU FOR EVERY THING . in sailove sairamdoris (AT) (DOT) es and family Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted June 22, 2005 Report Share Posted June 22, 2005 Let us get a count as to whether or not we will include Thursaday for the prayers and also the Full Moon Puja.

Guest guest Posted June 22, 2005 Report Share Posted June 22, 2005 Sairam Sister Anita , We can definetely make this collective prayer once a month that also on the Pournami day. I am very happy to say "YES" from my side. We should start this prayer from next month onwords. Because the next pournami will be the very auspicious "GURUPOORNIMA" which falls on 21st and the day will be Thursday. It will be a great day to start our prayer. Your Sai Sister Rama.

Guest guest Posted June 22, 2005 Report Share Posted June 22, 2005 Are we praying this Thurs which is tomorrow? So this will be our first Thursday prayer also another great idea came up form Sister Anita for prayers on Pournami day( full moon night)- defininetely Yes from my side- As you all have read from Swam's recent discourse that mammoth Seva project is taking place in Parthi where food and water will be distributed in remote villages. Small children 10 years and above will be doing Seva this is really in magnitude scale So let our prayers be more vigorous now and may Swami be cured Paripoorna as He is very busy with this Seva Project- ( so also everyone pain is alleviated too) Can we take part in this Seva project? Can we anyway contribute? what do you all think? or prayer is the only way- Let us pray more Brother's and Sister's this is the time and I sincerely believe this is all due to effect's of prayers- All His Grace nothing else- Jai Sai Ram At the feet of Sai Soumendra Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted June 22, 2005 Report Share Posted June 22, 2005 Dearest brother Soumendra and all brothers and sisters, Thank u,Baba, brother Soumendra and all Sai brothers and sisters for allowing this to happen. The next Pournami falls on 21st July, on a Thursday. Pls update your calendars. I will post a reminder closer the date. I'm so thrilled at the way we'rr all growing together, spiritually and most devotedly for Baba and for all our loved ones and the world as a whole. This is the best Sadhana I've ever heard or participated in. Thank u all for ur cooperation and for the thought u've given in the midst of ur busy lives. This is definitely a Sadhana laid down by Baba, so lets put our heart and soul to do this! May the world be ever-filled and glow with divinity and peace! May all our brothers and sisters in the world gain to the maximum strength! Love all,Serve all. Sister Anita Sakthi Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted June 22, 2005 Report Share Posted June 22, 2005 It is nice to pray for 20 minutes every day. I feel that a core group should make the time in 24 hours to do the nama japam as we have the core prayer hymns. Who ever want to do on other designated days, should join as a group prayer for it's benefits. Remeber now that Swami teaches that every moment is a meditation when it is offered to the Lord. I am also interested in this group to join hands as a group that can sponsor some Deena Jana Seva, as Swami already has the existing Hospitals and is showing the Royal Road to The path of self realization. There was a call for this from some other member yesterday, pleading members to consider helping the needy, in Social, Education and health matters. Sincerely, in his service with love Meena Chintapalli Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted June 22, 2005 Report Share Posted June 22, 2005 I replied to this plea earlier. I think this prayer group should become the International true Seva Sungh in Health, Education and Social Welfare aactivities to partake in all that Swami is showing us to do. We can sponsor a certain number of cardiac surgeries. We can sponssor some undertakings through the Deena Jana Udharana Pathakam. WE can have an opportunity to sher soem thimngs through the educational system.

Guest guest Posted June 22, 2005 Report Share Posted June 22, 2005 Sairam Soumendra da, Count me in for twice a week - Sundays and Thursdays - and once a month -Pournami days - for group prayers. All to pray at 7 AM local time. This way mostly throughout these days combined vibrations will be created for healing / giving succour to those in need. Loka Samastha Sukhino Bhavanthu.

Guest guest Posted June 22, 2005 Report Share Posted June 22, 2005 Sairam: Time and Tide wait for no man. When a problem is coming it is coming like a tide. So do not wait for Thursday and Sunday to do prayer for the needy. Do the prayer every day. Open mail in the morning and note down the prayer request and pray for that the same day at certain time agreed by group of people in your area. All days are Sathayanarayan Day. Pray often, pray in any place. May God bless you. Partha Partha Always be happy. Whatever happens is for good. Help one person every day so you can go one step near God.

Guest guest Posted June 23, 2005 Report Share Posted June 23, 2005 Sairam sister Meena, I will be in Hyderabad and participating in activities in our samithi / Sivam. We are not planning any visit to Prashantinilayam to Gurupurnima as out flight to US, to support our younger daughter's first confinement, is just a week later. Be rest assured that I will participate in our SPG prayers on Sundays, Thursdays and Purnima days at 7 AM local time irrespective of the place where I am at that time. I did the group prayer this morning. Loka Samastha Sukhino Bhavanthu.

Guest guest Posted June 25, 2005 Report Share Posted June 25, 2005 Sai Ram Meena ... I'm back tracking and trying to catch up on this news group as now it seems to be really moving along ... This sounds like a wonderful idea .. could you possiblly forward more information on this and how we could possibly help from overseas ??? Also .. I'd like to say to everyone .. that I think doing the prayers on Thursdays, Sundays and on the Full moon's like Gurupoornima is a wonderful idea .. and those who do sadhana daily can also add these people to thier prayers .... All help helps .... all service is important ... Anyways .. I wish everyone well ...

Guest guest Posted June 25, 2005 Report Share Posted June 25, 2005 Through this group I feel that Swami wants to Unite the East and the West. A bundle of tooth picks can not be trampled by even an elephant. Swami's students are doing wonderful service either through SSO or Independently all over the world. They are the hanumans of Swami who are building the Waaradhi ( bridge) between the 7 seas. They are fortunate enough to have been his students. We need to create through Unity, a bridge by joining with them in this humanitarian cause. This united standing to help in Health, Education and Social Welfare activiites globally and in India particularly where the Lord resides. As Swami is withdrawing at physical level from the masses. he will be seen through all of us globally. People should feel his love and peace through us. Therefore I suggest 1. We should call for the people who are independently doing seva in their little way, to be brave and come forward with their names and their expertise. Mainly the Youth who are charged with Swami's teachings and the divine energy are doing seva. They should come under one umbrella and should not dissipate their energies. They are eager to serve the Lord in many. 2. There should be a webmaster and website that these people can respond to and give their names bravely and the confidentaility should be maintained 3. There should be ground rules and with clarity of understanding that the International Prayer Group will take up the service activities, for which Swami will support. 4. Therefore first we need to find the servants locally and in India who are dedicated for the above three causes and they should work for the cause and not to seek any fame, popularity or name. As bhagawan says, first BE, then DO and then TELL. If every individual in the group works this way the collective work will be revealed through reception by the Lord himself. 5. An example is the Hyderabad Youth and Prashanti group and amy be ,ore in India and abroad, who are doing independent seva and they are all dedicated to Swami. Good work like schools are run by them. Old age homes are run by them. Let the seva be replicated in many towns. 6. We can not call for funds. The zeal for true humanitarian service will be guided by Bhagawan and Swami himself had recently funded some village service coordinators. First use the web to call people together, for united service In his seva with love and peace Meena C. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted June 25, 2005 Report Share Posted June 25, 2005 Sai Ram Meenajee , Excellent simply excellent- Let us pray brother's and sister's for this mega project in our Sunday prayer>let us all unite and pray for this unique project . All His grace- He will make it happen. Let us all Pray collectively for this Seva project as Meenajee beautifully said that people should feel His love and peace through us and He will be known through us globally. Swamis poem - What evil forces of Kali do to the man whose heart is filled with compassion, Whose words are immersed in Love, And whose body is dedicated to the service of others?
