Friday, June15 - 17, 2008: The Union Home Minister was at Prasanthi Nilayam over the weekend. Bhagawan went all around the Sai Kulwant Hall accepting letters from many and speaking to some devotees yesterday in His chair after going into the interview room for a brief while at 4 pm. This morning He arrived as the Bhajans went on at 10.10 in His chair. During His darshan round, He

Blessed the newly joined students of the I standard of the Primary School. He went into the Bhajan Hall and accepted Arati at 10.20 am, then entered His car. But after the car moved forward a few steps, He asked the

car to reverse, alighted again near the interview room, and came onstage. There, He sat for five minutes, interacting briefly with one of the students and the Senior Hostel warden before again moving to the verandah. There, He called a couple for an interview, and after that returned to His residence at 11.10 am.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

In the evening, Bhagawan had permitted the students to present a Bhangra dance programme, for which they were praying for the last two days. At 4 pm, when Swami came for darshan in His car, He moved out of Sai Kulwant Hall for a drive and returned at around 4.40 via the Western Gate of the Ashram. He moved to the Bhajan Hall in His chair and saw the students there in costumes and interacted with them for five minutes before asking them to move to the Hall and start their programme. When their 20 minute programme concluded at 5.15 pm, Swami stood up and walked down from the stage to take group photos with them. Bhajans began in the Bhajan Hall just after 5.30 and Bhagawan accepted Arati there after half an hour. More darshan news from 15th sent by a devotee: On the 15th evening Swami came at around 4:10 p.m. As Swami

reached

the dasavatara gate, devotees on the gents side missed a heart beat , when He suddenly signaled the driver to turn right. Swami left the ashram from dasavatara gate towards airport road, many assumed that Swami would take the same route back i.e. while driving back to Prasanthi Nilayam. The roads were packed with devotees waiting to get an eye contact thru the car windows or perhaps a smile or blessings of Swami with His hand raised (Abhya Hasta mudra). The school children were also waiting and on the opposite side of the road Swami's elephant Sathya Geeta too came near the gate to greet her Lord. Many devotees tried following Swami’s car, but all returned shortly losing sight of His car. Swami after teasing us returned from His short jaunt after around

half an hour. Once again He entered Sai Kulwant hall thru His residence gate. After His second arrival the students begin the preparations for a Bhangra and Gidha dance and song program. Students organized a very invigorating bhangra performance in the divine presence. Kulwant hall was filled with loud applause and even the lord was enjoying as we saw him spreading his usual catching smile in our hearts. After the play swami came down form the veranda for a short interaction amidst the students and also had a photo session with them.. In the meantime swami signaled for bhajans to began and the evening bhajans continued till 6:10 after that He took arati and left for his abode .Bhangra DanceA Dance Program by the students of the Sri Sathya Sai University, Prasanthi NilayamJune 15,
