Let us pray together, A report July 30th 2009

30th July 2009

Jai Sai Ram

It was again a usual Thursday of Shravan month. Udi and Jal oozed usually from the Photos, Statues and Charans of Baba. Again as last Thursday there was no Udi on the boxes of Prasad on the table, rather there were drops of water on them. But the Prasad was well eaten from the box placed in front of Baba in the mandir. These partly eaten pieces of Bhog were given to the devotees who offered those bhog. Many devotees also had water drops on them along with Mrs Gupta during the recitation of Sai Amrit Vani and Prayan of Sai Satcharitra.

I have already circulated the letters of the devotees for the prayers for 30th July 2009, Mrs. Veena Gupta ( Veena Maa as the devotees call her) prayed for all the devotees during the Pooja and the recitation of Sri Sai Amrit Vani and when the feeling of presence of Baba was very strong. Please address your requests for prayers only on email id veena_gupta_ 2000@yahoo. com and don’t bother all the 6800+ honorable members with so many letters. We will club the letters in 3 parts and circulate all the non-confidential letters to the members. Please don’t forget to mention that you will be reciting/reading or listening Sri Sai Amrit Vani with us on that Thursday (Any time, if 11AM to 12 is not possible). Letters without the (1) Names (2) place (3) Date of Thursday (4) Assurance that they will be reciting Sri Sai Amrit Vani are not included in the list of devotees. Correspondence with them individually is also not possible.

Sri Sai Amrit Vani started at 11.05 AM. Followed by brief Meditation and the prayer, Prayan of chapter 39, from Sai Satcharitra, was done. Mrs. Gupta offered prayers and thanks to Baba. Finally distribution of Prasad, Water and Udi .

Next Group Sri Sai Amrit Vani and Prayan of Sri Sai Satcharitra on 6th August 2009 will again be held at 19A, Pocket – B, Sidhartha Extension, New Delhi 110014. Devotees interested in attending it in person may contact on phone nos. 011-26346942, 09868966605 or 09312494767 only after 11 AM and before 8 PM (IST) on any day, except Thursdays and no calls on Thursdays P L E A S E . They should NOT bring any bhog with them and be in time. Kids are also not allowed in the hall. Mobiles have to be put on silent mode during the Pooja. Please also bring a small bottle with broad neck for the holy water if you wish to take the Jal (which oozes from the charans of Baba) with you. (If devotees who join us in absentia, find it difficult to recite from 11 AM, they can do it, at any time, as convenient to them.)
