After the cultural programs some students spoke narrating their experiences. One of the experiences was about an MBA student who went to work in New Delhi. He joined a company there and on weekends he use to go to an orphanage and spend some time being with children. There was a program in the school where these kids use to go to. So students were asked to bring their parents for the program. Since these kids in the orphanage had no parents they asked the Swami student if he could accompany them to the program. He happily accepted their request, but on the day of the program his manager in the office asked him to make a presentation to the Businessman coming from overseas. So he had to choose either to be with the kids whom he promised or the presentation. He prayed to Sathya Sai Baba and decided that he will go with kids and went with them, and the program went well and all the kids were happy. After returning from the program he told all his sub ordinates that he would be fired soon because he missed the presentation. But then they told him, " what are you talking about you were here and gave a very nice presentation " . Then Swami's students realized that Swami had come in his form and given the presentation. He thanked Swami and said when Swami says I will be with You around You and in You. Swami really is with us. Then Swami gave a discourse and began with a poem in Telugu. Swami said that Love and Peace are within us. You will not find anywhere else unless you realize that they are with yourself. Swami said that your behavior is reflected to you through this world. If you spread Love you will receive Love back. Swami said all the devotees should follow Love, Peace and Non-Violence. Swami said when you see your enemy offer him pranams and he will to. Love even your enemy, if you get angry with your enemy you are getting angry with yourself. Swami said devotees should always speak truth. Swami said stay united as an example Swami used the handkerchief and showed it and told if you take this handkerchief apart its only threads but if they stay together it's a cloth. So similarly always we should stay untied with Love. Swami gave many more wonderful messages. Swami talked about the students and said that all of them come from so far with Love. Fill your hearts with Love and Swami will be with you always. Then Swami sang the bhajan " Hari Bhajana Bhina Sukh Shanthi Nahi " after the bhajan Swami said the really bliss is in bhajans. So try to do bhajans, and don't worry about others do bhajans blissfully. After that Swami enquired with the students about when they were leaving and said that Swami will be with them always and blessed them. Then prasadam was distributed to all the devotees and after aarathi, event ended. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
