Om Sairam to most beloved children of our Lord, Best wishes and loving Sairams on the holy occasion of Telugu New Year, Ugadi,Swami is blessing all of us with His immense compassion, love through His beautiful darshans, sparshans and sambhasans. Before I start the proceedings of Ugadi festival, I would like to appreciate the BURRA KATHA (an ancient folk presentation famous in the state of Andhra Pradesh, where there is one lead singer with tambura (Veena like musical instrumet), singing according to the tone on a theme supported by two other people), performed by final year students of Sri Sathya Sai University, on 18th March, the theme being mother Eswaramma. The

katha was so fantastically done, that it brought tears in the eyes of Swami and also to the audience. The writer, Mr.Krishna Bhaskar, has scripted the whole story so imaginatively, yet very much lovely and the performance of the students was just fantastic. The whole katha was for one hour and Swami, just before it was finished, left for the interview room blessing the perfomers. UGADI CELEBRATIONS This year’s Ugadi(telugu new year) would be called SARVAJIT. (telugu calender has 60 months). Sarvajit meaning Victory in all fields. This year according to Swami would be a victorious one, and Iam sure, it would be a landmark in the Avatar of Sai. Recently, Indian cricket player Laxman, along with his wife, came with their new born son for Swami’s blessings and Swami named the child as Sarvajit, probably the first one getting that name from the Lord of the Lords himself….signifying the new year. This morning,we all were assembled

in Kulwanth Hall to have our Lord’s darshan on new year’s day. The hall was 90% full and probably a play by the students was scheduled. It was 7:30am and all eyes were towards the gate from where Swami enters the hall.. It was 8am and no trace of His arrival, another half hour passed, yet no Swami. We all were wondering will He come?? He came bit late on Jan 1st this year..It was 8:45 and suddenly there was some activity infront of Swami’s residence and here came Swami, amidst cheers and vedic chants. Swami took a full round and like it happens on every festival, the crowd were on their feet and some raising their hands to the maximum height, thus obstructing the view of devotees sitting behind them…. The car slowly came to the verandah and Swami’s chair slowly came out. Swami was seen with His most beautiful smile and as the chair landed, He signaled the boys, that He is going to walk to another chair placed on the dias. Swami slowly raised from His wheel chair

and walked slowly, holding His long robe, with His left hand, pausing after 3 or 4 steps and smiling… speaking to the boys… He slowly sat on the thorne…. All of us were eagerly waiting what next??… its already 9am… looks like there is going to be a play.. will there be the conventional Ugadi divine discourse?? Or just just the play… Swami summons for Prof. Anil Kumar. Prof. Kumar who lost his physical mother recently is back in town after almost 2 weeks, with a shaven head, the customary, for any son to shave his head, while offering prayers on the 12 th day, to the departed soul. Swami says something to him, He comes back to the mike …. He rendered some poems written by Devura palli Krishna Sastri, known for his imaginative and creative writing.. Swami you are in mother, you are in father, how should I call you? You are in all Gods, in all temples, Swami how should I call you/ You are guru of gurus, You are the indweller of devotees’ hearts, how should I call you my Lord? He then shared his experience in 1989, Ugadi, which was presided by late Sankar dayal Sharma, Presedent of India, who had 2 significant points Bhagwan every one longs for your darshan

on Ugadi, what ever we do on this day will be repeated through out the year. We will be having your darshans through out the year. I have come here, to serve the lotus feet. He started putting the petals of rose on Swami’s feet. Prof.Kumar expressing gratitude to Swami, shared the last moments of his mother, “Swami I thank you for extending the life of my mother for 30years as she had the first stroke 30years ago. My mother, on the last day in the body, wanted Bhagwan’s picture to be kept before her and Sathya sai nathaya namah,played 24 hours, watching Bhagwan and listening to His glory she left her body while in sleep, most comfotablly, in sathya sai intercontitental airlines, to His lotus feet.

While leaving for Hyderabad Bhagwan said, your mother will never trouble you and thus she didn’t trouble any one of us even in her last days..I thank you for all the blessings You showered on on our family… Later Swami called upon Mr.Venkatraman, to share his views, Prof.Venkatraman, shared his views on the water projects in East & West Godavari districts and in Chennai. He then reminded that its exactly one year that Swami has started the mobile hospital van, (which is usually placed in Kulwanth hall in the pathway opposite to the dias) and said how

useful the van was for the poor and needy.. It was 9:45am by then.. All were thinking there would be a play as all arrangements were made.. Swami suddenly raised from His chair holding the brass railings… The discourse table was brought and as all arrangements were being made just behind Him.... Swami had a different plan.. He preferred to stand holding the railings and render His divine discourse.. The boys on the stage had to run here and there to get another mike for Prof.Anil Kumar… Later the mike was brought infront of Him and Swami started His SARVAJIT year Divine Discourse.. Excerpts from the Discourse.. (based on memory.. Its just an effort to share the first hand experience, Swami might not have said few words.. and some times mistakenly interpreted as English being my second language…. Swami please forgive me if any mistakes have rolled in…) Embodiments of Love, THIS YEAR IS VERY

SIGNIFICANT Swami first mentioned the names of years in telugu. Few more years are there for Akshaya year. There are 60 years between Prabhava(first year in the telugu calender) and akshaya(the last year in telugu calender). This body has witnessed two akshayas. God incarnates in human form in the year Akshaya. This body was born in the year Akshaya This body is 83 years old now. THIS IS MOST IMPORTANT YEAR. Sarvajit represents the successive fulfillment of all our aspirations. This year will see development in ethical, spiritual, political, moral and technological fields. But one needs to be of truthful thoughts. When one’s thoughts are true no one can stop them. They are bound to be successful. This year will be a

successful one for all of you. This year is most sacred. Jit means Victory. Sarvajit means.. victory in all fields. Therefore, consider this year as very important. You will not come across any body who is failure in this new year Sarvajit. Celebrate this new year with all devotion and sacredness. The main reason behind this year is Parvathi.she had undertaken penance to please Lord Shiva. It’s the day of celebration when mother Parvathi won Shiva’s heart. Swami then narrated His visit to East Godavari and Madras some years ago. There was so much scarcity for water. There were three other devotees travelling with Swami. For every thing there is a specific time. I resolved that I should supply clean water and only then I should step in Madras. I made sure that there is pure water and surplus water to the people of Madras. I went to Madras recently. There is no scarcity of water any where (loud applauds). Its also used for cultivation. They had everything except drinking water. Britishers stayed in Madras for more than

200 years. They had to go on horseback to distant places for water. Only rich could afford water in those days. I was very much concernend about the poor. They didn’t have money to get water from tankers.300 crores were spent for Chennai water project. All people are extremely happy now. They are drinking pure , sweet drinking water. Human beings are not understanding the divinity with in them. Correct such fools. They have enough money . But they don’t give even a coin to a beggar. I told them don’t wait for any body’s help. The creator will take care of you. What ever you want ask Me. Always chant the prayer Loka samastha sukhino bhavanthu.

Pray for every body’s peace. Even when you come across your enemy, say Hello brother how are you? Do your duty and leave the result to Me. Andhra pradesh chief engineer Kondal Rao, went to East Godavari. They all were wondering how the water could reach such a height. It cannot be expressed .. one has to see it to belive it. People said, Swami we are close to River Godavari but never tasted a drop of water. Such people, today are having acess to pure water. In remote villages … The other day, they came here, saw everything here, and said, how lucky you areto see Swami everysday! We are also lucky that Swami has blessed us with pure drinking water… Swami please come to our place once. Yesterday Rama Krishna and Kondal Rao came and said Swami people are very happy and they are expecting You. I promised that I will be coming. The people are saying We will provide all the arrangements for you to reach the spot. they are extremely happy. NEW PROGRAMME FOR RURAL UPLIFTMENT Today is a highly sacred day. From today on wards, we will be undertaking a new project of rural project. Every village will get what they need. Even the children will be taken care. In two months all villages will have all the facilities…. There is lot of pollution in towns. This is a very expensive project. But I never worry about money. Money comes and goes. Morality comes and grows. No one should raise funds on my name. I will provide all the funds for any sacred act. What ever you want come to Me. Never doubt my divinity. Never be afraid of any thing. I will TAKE CARE OF YOUR WELL BEING. Be ready, and all of you join and work together. UNITY IS STRENGTH In the public meeting in Madras (Chennai) which was attended by chief ministers, governors and other people, I told very clearly there shouldn’t be any differentiation of states. Don’t say I belong to this state and that state.. You belong to a nation..India.. All Indians should be United… All should be united. The whole world should be united. All the classes in the society will come together during this year of Sarvajit. All will be united. There wont be any trace of differentiation. This is going to happen very soon. Yesterdy people from Mumbai came here. All were rich people. They wanted to build a big Dwaja stamba (pillar like thing) in the middle of the sea. The light would be seen even from other countries. It is a very costly project. The whole of Maharashtra is clean but Mumbai is highly polluted. You should think to solve the pollution problem. I bless you all to be peaceful, healthy. Let the whole world be happy. If you are happy, I am happy. Iam not separate from you. Always have God in your hearts. It was already 30 minutes since Swami was standing and now He slowly sits down… I have come in this human form to correct the humanity. Sathya Dharma

Santhi Prema and Ahimsa are the five breaths. Later Swami narrated the incidents in His childhood and how He brought back Subbamma to life Refferring to the Burra Katha performed by the students.. Yester day

there was a fantastic performance on Eswaramma. All the characters of the play were excellently portrayed. No one has composed like this before…. Swami is very happy with the students. Who is the Teacher?…..the writer of the katha ..Mr.Krishna Bhaskar was called upon.... Swami then gave him clothes and spoke to him patting his shoulder.. The three boys who performed the burrakatha so beautifully were also honoured by Swami. later Swami asked the boys to sing some numbers from the Katha.. Entha goppa satvi amma Eswaramma…. Kalla kapatamu erugani karunamayi talli…. ( so sweetly written that Swami closed His eyes and was seen immersed.. why not.. after all.. it’s the body’s mother.. Swami’s chosen mother Eswaramma…. Later sweet chapathi ( oliga as its called in this part of state) was distributed as prasad…and it was beyond 11am before the morning programme came to an end….. EVENING SESSION. The evening session started at 4:40 PM. There were few thousands from Anantapur district, for Swami’s darshan. Prof.Anil Kumar took over the proceedings.. The Sai Organisation of Anantapur district, had hand picked the poorest of the poor from various villages of the district and provided them sewing machines, grinders, bicycles, push trollies and even machines to weave silk sarees. While Prof.Anil Kumar read out the names of the recipients, all of them came to the stage offered prayers to Swami and took the gifts.. After the distribution, the children of the district rendered scintillating songs on Swami which were just fantastic.. Swami was seen immersed and tapping His feet to the rhythm,

He even clapped once… It was around 5:45 and just as we thought the show is finished, Swami signaled to bring the mike. As Prof.Kumar was ready .. it was confirmed that its going to be yet another discourse…. Swamy preferred to sit on His chair and deliver the divine discourse… As expected.. He started praising the Sai Organisation

and the kids for their excellent work.. Swami said, you all made Me very happy. I can’t express my happiness. Iam glad to see that you have come forward with this service activity. It makes Swami very happy. This is what you should be doing till your last breath.. Be united.. There might be some differences.. sort them out as soon as possible.. Be like a HINDU.. what is HINDU?.. H for Humanity, I for Individuality, N for Nationality, D for Divinity and U for Unity.(loud applauds).. when there is Divinity, there is Unity.. Swami then sang a telugu verse… Parama Pavana Maina Bharatha vani yandu, sahana mannade manaku chakka danamu(in this holyland of Bharat, Patience is our strength) Vratamulanniti yandu, vane kanchina yatti, Ghana sathya seelame kathina tapamu (of all the penance, adherence to truth is the highest form of penance) Pranambu kantenu manambe Ghana manu mana desa neetini manta galipi (the country which consideres character more important than ones own life) Neti ki ichiri paradesa neetula rasi (due to rapid westernization, have forgotten this

value) Enugu etula tana balamu erugalekunnado, atula ayyinaru mana bharateeyulu nedu (just as the mighty elephant doesn’t understand its strength, the Indians are not understanding their great culture.. Embodiments of Love, Understand the true human values.. Ignite the God with in you. Don’t go after money…. Many millionaires come to Me and say Swami we have every thing.. but no peace of mind.. where is this peace.. Its within you. .. outside its pieces..pieces… In this mordern times, both parents are going to work and leaving the children alone at homes.. That’s why the children are being spoilt. Why do you run after money.. Of what use is money when you can’t take care of your own children.. Udyogamulu cheya vanita landuru pova, griha kritya mulu teerchu grihini evaru (if women step out of the house to do jobs who will take care of the house..) Para baluranu nerpa pathasalakega tama baluraku nerpu tallu levaru (if you go to teach somebody’s children, who will teach your child) Don’t run after money.. Ask Me I will provide every thing.. If any one doesn’t have money to send their kids to school, just ask Me and I will provide everything(loud applauds)… the people of Anantapur are very hardworking. Its been a while since I had been to Anantapur… I WILL BE COMING TO
