Yesterday

evening Swami came to a packed Sai Kulwant Hall at 5:40 pm.

 

The programs began after Swami sat on the veranda blessings all the devotees in

Sai Kulwant Hall. First was a song and dance in English, which they beautifully

performed to a very nice song. Then the drama began.

 

Drama was about the Sai Organization and its service. Drama starts with

devotees in Delhi

trying to conduct a blood donation camp. As they are trying to conduct the camp

they see two elderly people nearby. Who seem to be struggling due to hunger,

when the devotees enquire what the problem was. The elderly couple responds

that their son has thrown them out of their home. And they were on the streets

now and hungry. So the devotees provide some food and take them back to their

home.

 

Once there they speak to the elderly couple's son and try to persuade him to

take his parent’s back and ask him to take care of them. They say your

parents have given so much of their Love and money for your well being you

should do the same at this stage for them. But their son ridicules the

devotees. As this is going on the grand son of the elderly couple who was

watching all this tell his father, how he too would have to treat his father

like his father is treating his parents.

 

After listening to this the son of the elderly couple realizes his mistake and

takes his parents back home after apologizing to them. And asks the devotees

who taught them such good morals. The devotees reveal their Divine Guru Sathya

Sai Baba. They then proceed to the blood donation camp. This family too happily

joins in the service they are providing.

 

At the camp they test all the devotees and take down their blood groups. As

they are doing this, a gentleman comes to them and tell them that he needs some

O positive blood. He tells his wife had an emergency operation and he tried all

the places even his relatives couldn’t help. So he has come to the Sai

Organization for help. The devotee looks in the book and calls all the devotees

with that blood group and asks them for help.

 

Then another lady come to them asking for similar help saying her son was in an

accident and she needs their help in getting blood. When they enquire her for

the blood group, she says she has no idea what the blood of her sons is, so

they provide her phone so that she can call the hospital and find out. Once she

finds out they help her with the blood donation. As all this is going on. The

gentle man who came to them earlier calls and thanks them for all the help. He

says even though he needed only 14 bottles of blood there were 15 people at the

hospital to donate blood. He said he was thankful that they helped him even

though he was not a devotee. And he says he would love to meet the Guru whose

devotees are so kind and helping. The devotee respond saying it’s the

Divine Grace of their Master Sathya Sai Baba, who has given them such an

opportunity to serve.

 

All of devotees come to Puttaparthi and offer pranams to Sathya Sai Baba. And

drama ends with a Punjabi bhangra song about Swami.

 

I wish I remembered the whole lyrics of the song, it went something like

“Sai Ham Hai Tere Sipayi” it was very nice.

 

After the event Swami blessed them and gave the performers clothes. Then Swami

blessed prasadam, which was distributed to all the devotees in Sai Kulwant

Hall. As prasadam was being distributed the devotees from Delhi began singing bhajans. After a few

bhajans the events ended with aarathi and Swami left for Yajur Mandir (swami's

home).

 

What a wonderful service these devotees in Delhi are doing with these blood donation

camps. Hope with Swami's blessings many more Sai Organization get inspired and

start such services.
