Guest guest Posted March 15, 2006 Report Share Posted March 15, 2006 Dear ALL and Brother Ram Lakhan Thank you for your response. In Mauritius, amazingly enough all people are very religious.Since we have a multi religion and multi racial population, we respect all religions and we celebrate all religious festivals. Bhagawan Baba Himself , knowing our heart, says 'Follow Your Religion!' So, once a month we have a Ramayana Satsang at Baba Temple. It's a real grand occassion when several Brahmin priests come and read the verses of the Ramaya Epic to us. We, older folks bring our Ramayana as well and we join in chorus in the recital...Sia var Ramchandra patgayiraho... Moreover, Bhagawan Baba had a grand day on Sunday 12 March when the Padukka Centre in collaboration with the Sri Sathya Sai Baba Centre of Curepipe celebrated the Akhand Joyti at Baba Temple. We held Akhand Bhajans from five in the morning ,after Suprabhatam and prayers until 18h.00. Everybody was thrilled. Babajee, the Officiating priest, explained to us that we have this 'Akhand Joyti' only in Mauritius. However, I must confess that I did not grasp the meaning of the Joyti nor how it was brought to our Island. If time permits I will find out about the Akhand Joyti and share it with you all. Besides, Babajee brought the Silver Padukkas where Bhagawan Baba had physically placed His Lotus Feet for us. Though we were explicitly told not to touch the Padukkas, I could not resist the temptation of touching them with both hands like a naughty, disobedient kid. 'No! Don't!' yelled my Sai Sisters. 'Too late!' I whispered with a grin of satisfaction. SAI RAM at the lotus feet of SAI anita Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
