March 15th, 2006 Today, the devotees from Bihar and Jharkhand were blessed by

Bhagawan to celebrate the festival of Holi in His Divine Presence. The Sai

Kulwant Hall wore a festive look with banners carrying some of Swami's pithy

sayings, and the ceiling of the central part of the Hall was decorated with

brightly coloured reflective festoons. The morning program commenced at 7.45 as

soon as Bhagawan came onstage after His darshan round. The first item was a

Navagraha Stuti dance. The songs which followed all reflected the joyous mood

of the Holi festival, and some were depicted in dances too. Devotees seated on

either side of the central clear area of Sai Kulwant Hall threw coloured powder

into the air at regular intervals, adding to the Holi atmosphere. Bhagawan was

very pleased with the hour long program. Bhajans commenced after the program,

and Bhagawan came down from the stage in His chair to give group photos for all

the participants. Prasadam was also distributed. Not content with giving group

photos to only the Balvikas children who performed the dances, Swami went

towards the ladies' side and had group photos with the ladies from Bihar and

Jharkhand seated there. Then the gents too got an opportunity. After all this,

at the conclusion of Arati, Bhagawan Blessed the entire congregation with both

His hands. In the afternoon, the Holi program continued with the presentation

of a play on Bhakta poet Vidyapati of Mithila. Lord Shiva Himself comes as a

servant of Vidyapati moved by his devotion. Bhagawan was very pleased with this

performance too. In fact, He paused the play for a minute or so near the end, to

give a ring to one of the main characters! After the drama, Bhajans were sung by

the Bihar and Jharkhand devotees, and prasadam was distributed to the

performers. More from 15th March- Sai Darshan account 15th March - HOLI

Bhagawan had some interaction with the Senior Hostel Warden, some of the Music

College students scrambled to get their instruments. Bhagawan had agreed to

have their Hindustani vocal musical program. The song program commenced at 4 pm

and went on for an hour. Many pleasing and well known songs including Meera

bhajans were sung by the students to the enjoyment of all. After the music

program, bhajans commenced in the Kulwant Hall, following which Bhagawan

returned to His Poornachandra residence.More from 13th March- Darshan news 13th

examinations commence for the students of the Sri Sathya Sai University. The

final year students of the Anantapur womens' campus had come to seek Bhagawan's

blessings. In the evening, Bhagawan asked two eminent devotees to speak. Sri

Chitti Babu, educationist and former Vice-Chancellor of a number of

Universitites was the first speaker. He spoke for around 20 minutes, mentioning

how he had come to Swami afflicted with illness and how we should share our

experiences with others. The second speaker was Dr. Jayalakshmi Gopinath,

Warden of the Anantapur campus Hostel, a devotee of Bhagawan for the last 57

years. She spoke for around 45 minutes, with references to some of the leelas

of Bhagawan she had been witness to in her long association with Him. After

these speeches, Bhagawan sat onstage for a few bhajans and then retired for the

day. More from 12th March-Detailed Darshan news 12th March: Swami came out at

He went walking upto the stage area and asked some teachers seated there about

what program was arranged for that day. In fact, the students were preparing

for exams and no program was planned. But a Burrakatha - traditional narrative

interspersed with songs - had been planned by some of the students a few days

back, which could not be presented then. Now, those students came forward and

Bhagawan gave them the green signal to present the Burrakatha, complete with

costumes. In just ten minutes, the students got ready to start their 45 minute

presentation. Prof. Anil Kumar made an introductory announcement, mentioning

the short notice and the approaching exams of the students. The Burrakatha was

introduced as "the History of Shirdi Bhagawan as narrated by Parthi Bhagawan".

Bhagawan was very pleased with the crisp Burrakatha and bountifully blessed the

three main participants along with their accompanists after their performance.
