Sai Ram,
The most incredible moment of my life. An elevation to a higher lever of consciousness wrapped in
intense love surrounding me, in me and enfolding me.
As we sat, watched and experienced, a new life opened as my change was irreversible brought
about by the grace of the ultimate That Which Is in the form of Sukshma Baba.
It was the 89th birthday celebration of Sathya Sai Baba in the outdoor stadium at Sathya Sai
Grama on the Muddenahalli campus. A beautiful bowl surrounded by mountains on a sunny day
with warm temperatures which got considerably lower as darkness penetrated the area.
It was late afternoon with a few thousand people seated waiting for that glorious moment when, at
last, Sukshma will appear as we praised Baba with all that was wonderful.
On the track pavement which ran around the lawn area where we were seated facing the stage.
On either side of the stage on the ground were two hugh screens so that we could watch the
action in detail from where we were.
From the back of the field came movement on the track slowly marching with Vedic chanting were
about 100 young boys in traditional pundit dress. Following them were about 50 young girls
dressed as Gopis doing dance movements.
With music and other sounds filling the air, the palanquin came into view. The front had two
beautiful swans known as Paramhamsa on each side signifying that the One who is awakened in
all realms is seated therein. On the seat invisible to the physical eyes was Sukshma Baba. On the
outside were escorts.
His divine energies including his love penetrated the entire field immersing all. After a few
moments feeling those energies, tears fell from my eyes as the energies were immersing my body
into an ocean of pure That Which Is beyond god or words.
The energies were familiar. No doubt about it. It was Sathya Sai Baba. No physical entity but
convincingenergy signature which would remove any doubt that any one ever had as to whether
this invisible Sukshma was real or even Sai Baba.
He was present in that vibration in a way never experienced before. It penetrated my physical and
other bodies to touch my core in a way it hasnt been touch before. My
life changed. In the process, the physical world became dull, uninteresting and a burden to deal
with.
The greatest event that has ever occurred in the history of mankind is happening and we were
experiencing it. The Grace of it all. It was more than Grace.
Soon the whole world will have the opportunity. First small groups and some larger groups.
Eventually the whole world will have the chance to become one with the energy.
Some people will not know how to cope. Others will embrace and rise to new levels that they never
thought was possible taking with them others.
This dull planet will glow. All will be well. All will have the chance to be at Peace as the world
realizes its peace.
Glory to the highest and deepest state of being so beyond our comprehension that no words can
ever describe any of it.
From beyond all and the one responsible for it all became Sukshma to bring the beyond words
state of being to us.
The cleansing of this planet and all its inhabit is the process by which the transformations will take
place.
Beyond Buddha, Jesus, Quan Yin, Mary, Gandhi, King, Krishna, Rama and more, the One beyond
all, the One in all, the One that is each of us and everything else is here bringing us to Oneness
state of existence immersed in Love.
It is happening. It will happen. It is his WILL that it happens.
Love Peace Happiness Bliss Joy.
Forever and Ever.
Take Care. Be Well and Happy
Sai Surya
Sai Ram,
To celebrate Sathya Sai Baba 89th birthday, Sukshma planned
wonderful events. After the grand entrance, Sukshma Baba went
to his chair in center stage. The energy remained intense.
Kunal and Gayathri Ganjawala were the first singers. They are
well known to devotees and people around the world. They sang
several songs. Their love and devotion to Sai Baba was obvious.
These feelings penetrated the music.
There were introductions of people sitting on the stage. All of
whom were well known to devotees. All of who were actively
working to help Sukshma Baba accelerate his programs for the
world.
They spoke of the wonderful work that Sathya Sai Baba has
already accomplished since leaving his physical body and
manifesting as Sukshma Baba. The activities are going on now
and will continue. It is increasing.
They prayed for Sukshma Baba to grace us with a discourse
which he did using Madhu to transmit what Baba was saying and
Narasimha to translate into English.
We were told us that Baba was wearing a white robe.
Many things were mentioned during the evening. We are unsure,
at this point, what was said by Baba and what was said by
previous speakers.
Baba dedicated the solar power plant on campus that morning.
He said that solar power was the wave of the future. Solar power
plants will be built on all campuses. We are not sure if this
includes Anantapur, Brindavan and Puttaparthi. We will have to
wait and see.
There will be water projects throughout India. I believe one in
each state. Also, that there will be super specialty hospitals in
each state.
These caught me by surprise. It had previously been indicated
that there would be four more super specialty hospital built and
one more water project. We will double check on this information.
Not being limited by a physical body and being with people who
do exactly what he says, allows him to accomplish more.
Everything must be done within a few years.
All these activities and many unannounced ones will allow Baba
to fulfill what was written in the Vedas many centuries ago.
He will fulfill all of them.
Baba emphasized that although the Sukshma will be available
until 96 years of age. At which time it will be no more. However,
Baba will continue in his other forms coming to people, healing
them, appearing in dreams, etc. Everything that he has always
done.
Sukshma Baba said that it was our fault if we cannot see him.
Anyone with enough Love and devotion could see him. It is up to
us to improve our lives in such a way that we would be able to
see him.
To repeat that Sukshma Baba said earlier thatPuttaparthi is the
holiest place in the universe since the avatar was born there.
A letter was read from someone in Australia who offered to do
anything Baba wanted down there. My understanding was that
Sukshma will be traveling there soon.
Eventually, The door of the big lingam burst open with a bunch of
Sivas coming out.
They danced a while. Yama was defeated and the boys lived
longer.
It was hard to believe that both groups were students of the
campus. They performed as professionals. Outstanding.
Next it was the turn of Shivakumar Sharma and his son, Rahul,
to play their unique instruments. Both are very devoted to Baba
and also well known to Baba devotees from appearing in
Puttaparthi and other centers. They are well known in their own
right.
They played the Santoor for about 45 minutes. It was hard to tell
as the music seemed repetitive. It was enchanting and soul lifting.
It was clear they enjoyed themselves. Afterwards, they ended
with some bhajans.
To top off the evening, there were fireworks all around. There was
a flaming display saying Happy Birthday Sathya Sai Baba. The
exact wording is unsure as it went up in smoke. The fireworks
continued for about 15 minutes.
Arati was done with fireworks in the background. Baba
descended the steps to the car and went to his house - Anandam.
The temporary Muddenahalli Western Canteen was open at this
late hour to provide
Many familiar staff faces were missing. It would had been nice to have
seen them,
My understanding is that Sukshma Baba went and will go to the various
campuses blessing them.
What will happen on Sunday or next week is anybodys guess.
My experience is that the trip was worth it. We left happier and more
peaceful.
Each time the campus very spiritual vibrations has changing effects on
us.
On Birthday, the invisibles were there as were to be expected. However,
some beings in aerial vehicles came to watch the program.
More about the 500 bed hospital in Mississippi. The funding source
is Isaac Tigrett. The architect is Keith Barry Critchlow. The same
person who designed the Super Specialty Hospital in Puttaparthi. He is
head of Sacred Geometry at the Prince of Wales School of Architecture
in London.

Sukshma 8 1-12-14B Surprise
Sai Ram,
It is Sunday evening. We just return home from Muddenahalli on
a trip that almost didnt happen. We found out that Sukshma
Sai Ram,
It was another beautiful day as we gathered in Muddenahalli
for bhajans and discourse. It was crowded with some people
having to sit outside.
We were allowed to go inside Sri Sathya Sai Anandam ground
floor a little earlier. It was great getting to sit in that special
vibration absorbing Love, Peace and Harmony that was
naturally present from the continual activities that went on in
that room and from Sukshma Baba living one floor higher.
Sai Ram,
Sunday was a beautiful day. Sathya Sai Grama had a
yagna in the morning. Many people who came for that
stayed until the afternoon. The crowd waiting to get into
Sathya Sai Anandam was long and resulted in some
confusion.
As we obtained seats and settled down, the intense
vibration penetrated the body in a bath of Love and
Peace. All was well.
Look within. Find it. Where there is faith, love and truth,
you go beyond the body and mind to realize the Atma. In
peace there is bliss. Give up attachments to sacrifice for
Love.
A couple of times Baba made some comments that had
people laughing especially the students.
Many of us will be with Prema Sai.
The discourse was followed with bhajan Rama, Rama,
Ram which lifted us up to higher level the more it was
sung.
Baba walked down the aisle taking letters, blessing
people, giving advice and letting some touch his feet. To
one man in a wheelchair, he made a special path to him
where Madhu reached into his pocket to give him a
beautiful diamond ring. It was incredible.
We were holding a letter from a friend who has a very
sick son. It was taken. We are expecting a miracle. We
touched his feet and felt some energy.
Sukshma Baba walked outside blessing those who
couldnt come into the room. There were many people.
When he returned inside by the elevator he spoke to two
men. One he told to come every Sunday. The other he
told to go to Brisbane, Australia.
The energy in the room was incredible. Love was such
that we sensed that Baba didnt want to leave. None of
us wanted him to go.
Sai Ram,
Another trip to Muddenahalli. We never know what to expect.
Today was like that.
We had got accustomed to taking bags and water onto the
Anandam property. As of today, that was no longer allowed.
Just before the gate on the right side, a tent was setup where
mobile phones, tape devices and movie cameras, etc, had to be
deposited as well as backpack, shopping bags and pocketbooks.
You can still take cushions, letters, glasses, and some other
items. It was a bit confusing. In time it will become clearer.
On this beautiful sunny day, there were many people. We were
surprised considering that some people didnt come because of
Christmas Choir rehearsals, decorations that needed to be done
and other activities associated with this time of the year.
As we sat in the bhajan hall, a green rectangular cake was
brought and placed on the stage on the mens side. During arati,
Madhu cut the cake for Baba which Baba blessed. When asked
what was going to be done with the cake, students were waiting
for an answer from Baba who went upstairs.
One small Christmas tree was moved to the corner in the front on
the mens side.
In this area, there was the small tree and a much large one.
Some women with special items were placed by the elevator.
Students were placed along the aisle. Isaac Tigrett was here
having come back from London and heading to places in India
before going to Singapore and Australia.
At about 4:50, a group of men and women came down from
meeting with Swami. Some of the men were musicians. We
believe they were alumni.
In the quiet of the sitting we felt the energy building but we still felt
tense from the days events. Energy was building in me to feel
Babas presence but to also move me out of my body situation.
Bhajans started at 5:00 with Baba making his entrance a few
minutes later. He spoke with some woman as he got out of the
elevator. Madhu was carrying what seemed to be an orange robe.
We do not know what became of it. The assumption was that it
was given to someone.
After 25 minutes of bhajans, the first speaker, Sriram, spoke
about Swami. He is the music coordinator for all of the
Muddenahalli campus. He shared how Baba led him to music.
What was more important was when asked by Baba, Sriram said
that he would do whatever Swami wanted. Sriram became what
he really wanted to do. One desire that he also had was to be
around Swami as much as possible.
Narasimha spoke about how great a woman his mother was. He
never married because no woman could ever come close to her
standard or do better.

Before going to bhajans in Sathya Sai Anandam, we spent some time in Prem Deep where
Baba used to live and there was also a bhajan hall. A visiting group was address by a Public
Relations Officer and had a brief meditation.
Afterwards we saw the garage where the gold chariot, that Rama used, would be stored.
Further, we came to overlook the area where the new prayer hall will be built as well as a
western style dining room. There will be a separate road that will lead to this area so that
visitors will not be coming into the campus area.
Construction will begin on Sankranti on January 15 th.
We saw the building that houses the latest food preparation and cooking facilities.
After which we went to the outdoor stadium where we were surprised to learn that it was
being renovated. The structure that we saw on Birthday was temporary. Now it was being
made permanent. It will be finished in about 2 weeks.
The Center for Human Excellence was the next stop where we were treated to an explanation
of how Sathya Sai Grama came into being and the purpose of this Center. The boys that were
chosen to be in the program will be placed in special positions in the country, world and even
in Sathya Sai Grama at one of its campuses.
This year construction will start on a new accommodation building. However, as it is now,
there will be no guest rooms for the general public. These rooms will be reserved. Also,
construction will begin on an expanded Center for Human Excellence.
Furthermore, a new womans campus will arise which will be about 8 kilometers away from
this campus
It will be a busy year with these construction projects and others in this area and
elsewhere.
Outside the Anandam Bhajan Hall were colorful artificial Christmas trees with horizontal
triangular shaped branches. We have never seen anything like them. The tent walls were still
there.
Inside all the decorations have been taken down including the trees.
We had wondered how it was determined which students get to sit inside each bhajan session.
We had learned that some sort of lottery system was used.
The energy in the hall had increased. We were feeling light. Breathing rapidly in anticipation of
Sukshma Baba immediate presence.
My Love come soon.
How I long to see you.
The beauty that defies description.
The subtle form is beyond description.
Come bless me.
Lets see.
Be one forever.
The bhajans were powerful with wonderful singers. The intensity was strong. Sukshma Baba
sat in his chair blessing us all.
Arati was at 6:50. When we touched the footstool we received a jolt of energy that charged
and changed me.
On Sunday there will be a bhajan session and it is expected that there will be a discourse. Of
course, the crowd will be much larger.
The Sukshma trip to the Gold Coast of Australia on December 30, 31 and January 1st was
successful and powerful. With 300 people it was similar to what was held here. Sukshma had
promised to return at least once this year. Baba said that more schools will be built in
Australia. Sukshma visited the Toogoolawa School in Ormeau
There is 10 minute video of the 2014 Birthday Celebration. It seems to be a prelude to a
longer tape to be released soon.

Sai Surya
Sai Ram,
It was a wonderful day as the sun was shining and the
temperature was a bit warmer. As expected the crowd
would be large. Everyone was looking forward to being
with Sukshma Baba. There were several people there for
the first time. People are planning their trips to Bangalore
or Puttaparthi with a visit to Sathya Sai Grama.
All holiday decorations were gone. The bhajan hall now
had an extra carpet on the mens side to allow Baba to
walk near the men seated in chairs.
A group of older men from Alike were called for an
interview. Some other men and a few women also went.
Alike, which is located about 8 hours west of
Muddenahalli, is the founding campus of the
Muddenahalli campus. The Alike Campus was started
several years before Muddenahalli- Sathya Sai Grama
campus. Both campuses are under the same Trust. The
interview lasted about 40 minutes.
We were excited about being in the direct presence of
Sukshma again. Around 4:30 intense energy came from

Sai Ram,
It was a cloudy wonderful day. The crowd, as expected, was
large. Many people had to sit outside. Everyone was anxious
to get close to Baba, to bathe in his energy and to feel his
Love.
While waiting for bhajans, some people were called for
interview. As we waited my restlessness and tension slowly
disappeared. First thought would be that at last we were
sitting down and able to relax. However, on closer
introspection, it was Sukshma energy permeating from the
floor above that had a calming effect on all.

Sai Ram,
Many people have not read the introduction on Sukshma
Baba. We have updated it and have attempted to answer
questions that have been raised.
We update information as we get it and understand it.
Questions and comments are always welcomed.
Responses will be attempted in the regular reports.
Personal responses will be as time permits.
As you will read, we obtained Babas approval of what
was written.
It is in PDF format.
It is sent as an attachment to make it easier to send it to
others.
This is the greatest time in the history of mankind to be
alive especially those who have known Sathya Sai Baba
and now Sukshma Baba.

Sai Surya.
The following document about Sukshama Baba
was presented to him as he moved among the crowd at
Sathya Sai Anandam on
Thursday, 8 January 2015.
Correct.
Sukshma Baba
In the beginning there was That Which Is,
I
Am, Soham. There are any number of names to
describe what existed before it manifested into a physical world. That Which Is manifested as the
Universe and everything we know.
From the beyond, a force came forth in a blue light which was Sathya Sai Baba.
For 86 years,
he
pretended
to
be
human. The maya, illusion, around him was that he was a better version of one of us. The Truth w
as hidden that Sai Baba came from a reality beyond anything which we could ever understand.
Darshan was allowed for people were able to see Sai Baba with their eyes. Touching of the body e
specially the feet was another grace that Sathya Sai allowed. Materialization and receiving of obje
cts was an even greater blessing bestowed on the lucky few as well as healings of all sorts.
Sai could do anything, anywhere, anyplace, anyway he wanted. There were no limits except those
he voluntarily imposed on himself.
His mission was to help the good, convert the bad, eliminate evil and to restore dharma, truth, love
and all those virtues associated with God, divinity, and the absolute.
His goals were being accomplished but were hampered by a physical vehicle that made it difficult t
o finish the task.
He would not use his own powers on himself as that was a limitation he voluntarily accepted.
Sai Baba knew that this was going to happen. It was planned long ago what would be
done when it does.
He left his special physical body with unique spiritual
and healing powers behind.
In Puttaparthi, the special effects of that body will remain for thousands of years. Sai Baba
has said that Puttaparthi was the holiest place in the universe because the avatar was born here.
As planned,
a
new body or form was needed to maintain a
link between That Which Is and the physical so that the mission could be completed. Another desc
ent was made to a level close enough for humans to rise to receive his guidance.
Sukshma took form and resided in
a
place with people he had been preparing for almost 40 years. Here he was safe. Sai was among
people who would carry out his wishes as stated by him immediately knowing that it was always
for our benefits.
In effect, Sai never left. He went from one form to another. There was no gap in his work.
In India, new residential schools, a heart hospital, the expansion of Sathya Sai Grama were built. It
has now speeded up. There will be a super specialty hospital in each state, water projects as
needed, at least 23 more residential and other schools constructed along with schools for girls.
Overseas, there will be a 500 bed super specialty hospital in Mississippi in the United States which
will be free. However, It seems as though Australia will lead the way with other projects. Rapidly
and efficiently all over the world, Sathya Sai Baba projects will be completed.
It is the WILL of That Which Is, I Am, Soham and the Absolute that this be is done through Sathya
Sai Baba as Sukshma Baba. Since it is the WILL of That Which Is beyond the manifestation of the
physical universe, it must happen. In fact, it has all been accomplished.
Sai Baba has said many times that nothing can stand in his way. What He WILL must happen.
Everything must be completed within 7 years which is the date when Sathya Sai Baba will no
longer exist in the Sukshma Form.
Sukshma Baba is preparing us for the third act of this play which is when Prema Sai Baba is
revealed. He will make no discourses and will not speak. The only way to communicate with
Prema Sai is also the best way to communicate with Sukshma Sai which is through the heart.
Pure people will have no difficulty.
Only those who have a pure heart, which means they are selfless, can see or hear him. Using the
third eye and other methods to see Sukshma may work to a point but to see Sukshma Baba also
requires Babas grace.
Sathya Sai Baba took us through one level, Sukshma Baba will take us through the next level and
Prema Sai Baba will take us through the upper level leading to graduation
Prema Sai job is to finish the work that Shirdi Sai and Sathya Sai started. Dharma which was
secured by Sathya Sai will be further secured by Prema Sai.
There will be world peace, love and harmony.
There is much confusion as to what Sukshma Baba is. He is a direct manifestation of the
Absolute That Which Is I Am to a lower level. Pure energy with no barrier. There is no mental
body, no astral body and no sheath just pure energy which for the lack of a better term some
people call God.
Sukshma Baba is unlike anything that has ever manifested on this planet.
Also, Sathya Sai Baba will never reappear in his physical form.
There have been highly advanced souls who manifested in a Sukshma form to communicate with
their disciples. But Sukshma Baba comes from a much higher level. Remember that which
appeared as Sathya Sai Baba manifested the gods and other beings for our benefits.
From before the beginning was Love. A kind of Love beyond our ability to put into words or
understand. Love manifested as Sathya Sai Baba and now as Sukshma Baba. Love only
wants what is best for us. It can never harm us in any way. By its very nature or essence it is
impossible for Love force to do anything but what is best for all.
Everything that Sai Baba or Sukshma Baba told us or tells us is always for our benefit. What can
we give the one who has everything, who is everything, who is the very essence of us? LOVE.
Everything including LOVE is his.
He wants us to enjoy the bliss of having returned our LOVE to the unmanifested. Our JOY will be
boundless.
Sathya Sai Baba will continue to appear as he has always done in homes, centers and places
where he is needed. He may appear in the physical form that we know or as he has in many other
cases appeared as someone else. Vibhuti will continue to manifest as usual. Healing will continue
to take place. Everything that has occurred before will continue.
All of this is independent of what happens with Sukshma Baba. Although coming from the same
source they are two different phenomenons.
Sukshma requires everyone to raise their vibration to his level. The absolute as Sathya Sai Baba
came to our level. Now we must rise to his. Sukshma will travel around the world to places that are
ready for him. Where the vibration has been elevated and a sense of purity has been shown. His
travels will be part of his plan to complete his mission. He has stated that he will visit places that
have set aside special rooms for him.
There will be events happening by both forms. Some by Sathya Sai Baba and others by Sukshma
Baba.
What is going to happen has never happened before and may never happen again. We are living
at a time that is greater than the Crucifixion, the Sermon on the Mount, the Ten Commandments,
Buddha enlightenment, Krishna giving Arjuna the Bhagavad Gita, Rama Coronation combined.
This majesty and the glory of these times are beyond words. It took thousands, maybe millions of
lives to win the grace to even be on the planet at this time. All who are coming into his immediate
presence have done special deeds in many lives to even earn this right.
Many wonder how does Sukshma speak through someone. Communication is done using people
who were specially prepared to be able to receive the pure energy and transmit Babas speech so
that it could be heard and understood by the listeners. In this way people were blessed with
Sambhashan.
Sambhashan is the technique used by advance beings to transmit information verbally from a
higher plane to people on the physical plane. In history only a few people have done this. Besides
the sender being in advance spiritual state, a receiver of the information has to be prepared to be
able to verbalize what he was hearing.
There are a couple of people who were prepared to do this for Sathya Sai. Madhusoodhan Rao
Naidu was the main one used at Kodaikanal, Muddenahalli and in many other places including
Singapore, Australia and United Kingdom. The transmission was in Telegu. When it was necessary
to translate the message into English. Another person would translate what Madhusoodhan
verbalized usually it was Narasimha.
The voice that was heard was a combination of Madhusoodhan blended with Sai Baba.
The energy of the experience was Baba.
Most of the attention has been toward Muddenahalli Campus in Chikaballapur which is about 30
minutes from the Bangalore airport. A residential school was established at Alike in 1962
by Narayan Bhat who later decided to establish the Muddenahalli Campus at the request of
people who wanted a similar school in their area. In 1973,the first class was held.
Sai Baba named the campus as Sathya Sai Grama which means The Village of Sathya Sai.
The school at Muddenahalli was inaugurated on 11 June 1973. Students and teachers lived
together like a single family. Eventually a Higher Primary School and an English medium section
were added. There are residential students and day scholars from neighboring villages.
After Bhat died in 1977, Sai Baba agreed to accept the institutions. On 18 August 1978, Sai Baba
officially accepted both institution of Alike and Muddenahalli by signing a deed making him the sole
trustee of Sri Sathya Sai Loka Seva Trust. A Council of Management of the Trust was also
formed. The campus consist of 2 Secondary schools, a junior college and university buildings
which are part of the Sri Sathya Sai University.
The campus has a group of elders and teachers who have taken a vow of life long celibacy.
Education is completely free.
Baba had constructed the Sri Sathya Sai Anandam as his residence. On first floor are His
bedroom and a meeting room. The ground floor is the bhajan hall.
Baba also directed the construction of the current Center for Human Excellence and is directing
the construction of a larger facility which will house more students chosen to study in the Center
for Human Excellence on the Muddenahalli Campus.
This Center has been created with about 20 boys who undergo very strict discipline and
educational program. They live in a separate special environment experiencing a Gurukula
environment. They meet with Baba regularly for guidance, instructions and discourses.
The Sri Sathya Sai Loka Trust is independent of any other trust established by Sathya Sai Baba or
anyone else. All legitimate Baba trust never solicits money for any reason. Beware, there are
many groups that are collecting money and other items in the name of Sathya Sai Baba or
Sukshma Baba. These are all fake.
Many people claim that Sathya Sai Baba speaks through them to give messages to others. This is
also fake. They act as a medium. Do not pay heed to them. If Baba wants to tell you something,
he will come himself. Now people are also saying that Sukshma Baba is talking to them. Also,
false.
Some say that Sukshma Baba should be avoid because he talks through somebody. Madhu as
the sambhashan does not act a medium but is a direct and immediate transmitter of what
Sukshma Baba says. There is no thinking, changing of words, or thinking. There is the immediate
response. It is similar to Baba speaking into a public address system using a microphone with
Madhu acting as the amplifier.
The proof is in the transaction. Eveyrone who has experienced it has said that it was Sai Baba in
words, actions and vibration. Baba spoke about things that no one else could have known about.
Further proof is that the advice given when followed gets the expected results.
Sukshma is pure energy. As a result, it is not possible to materialize items anymore but they do
appear in Madhu pockets. These items are always the perfect size ring, bracelet or neck chain.
Some people wonder about the reaction at Prasanthi Nilayam toward Sukshma. We have
only witnessed positive reactions. Many staff and devotee are interested.
Sukshma Baba has said only good things about Prasanthi Nilayam. Puttaparthi is the holiest place
in the universe because the avatar was born there. Also, that the energy at Prasanthi Nilayam and
Muddenahalli are equally intense. Every indication is that he wants Prasanthi Nilayam to flourish
and grow. It will because it is Babas WILL.
What was started in Puttaparthi, Prasanthi Nilayam and elsewhere has matured. People know
what to do. They will do exactly what Sai Baba taught them and they know exactly what he
expects.
The international Sai organizations and Prasanthi Nilayam are doing a wonderful job in the areas
in which they are involved. The demand will grow. One day soon Prasanthi Nilayam will be filled
with so many people and activities that everyone will be busy all the time. Baba said that
Puttaparthi-Prasanthi Nilayam will be the number one destination in the world.
Everything will go as HE has planned.
The energies in Prasanthi Nilayam are strong and will get stronger. The miracles of Sathya Sai
will increase. It has been going slow to give people time to adjust but soon the process will speed
up. The ashram will be better prepared.
His WILL is our Will.
Take Care. Be Well and Happy.
Sai Surya
Sai Ram,
It was another wonderful day at Sathya Sai Grama. A beautiful
sunny day with just the right temperatures. Many people were
there as a double meeting was held where two groups were
formed. Sri Sathya Sai Yuva Vrinda, which is a youth group, for
people between ages of 18 -35. The Sri Sathya Sai Seva Vrinda
was for people who are between the ages of 35 -60.
The Seva Vrinda will take over assisting, directing and seating
people. It would help relieve the burden on staff that have
other functions to perform.
There were about 200 men and 150 women who formed the
two groups. Their meeting started at 10:30. Sometime after
12:00 Sukshma gave a brief talk. One thing he shared was his
life mission. After which they were treated to a nice lunch.
The seating space in Anandam was limited because members
from these groups were given priority in sitting. People who
normally sat inside had to sit outside.
The warm day gave way to cool temperatures as the sun went
down. Having the tent sides up helped.
Many people who normally would have come from Puttaparthi
didnt because it was Sports Day with morning and evening
programs. Many people were outside.
Inside was very crowded as every space was used. The carpet
that was there the last two times was gone. We assume it was
to get more men inside. The carpet enabled Sukshma and
Madhu to walk on the mens side near the chairs.
With all the crowd movements, quietness was still present. My
heart was pleading for Sukshma to come soon. Shortly after 5,
four people came down from upstairs. Bhajans started. Soon,
Baba came. As he exited the elevator, there was a brief pause
by the musicians before sitting in his chair.
The first speaker was Sri Ram who talked about how Baba
appeared many time in his home and other places. Sai gave
him courage to continue when he was ready to give up. Baba
is always sharing His Love.
Narasimha said that Baba said that if my devotees focus on
me all the time, I will protect them for life. Talking about Baba
brings great joy. If you are unsure about a situation, ask Baba
what to do. Think of Baba before you act and react.
Sukshma Baba spoke with Madhu repeating what was said and
Narasimha translating into English. He said that in this world it
was impossible to not have any desires. We always have some
desires. Some are better than others. Less desires are better.
Desire to be close to god. Have selfless desires.
We should always be happy. No matter what happens be
happy and enjoy bliss.
Pray for everyone in the world not just yourself. Let no one
experience sorrow. All the world should be happy. When you
make others happy, you can be happy. Have selflessness.
You come here (to be with Sukshma) for the love of God. God
saves. Whatever you do offer it to God. Be an instrument. God
is the doer. Each day say, Whatever I do I offer to you. Offer
everything to God. Do seva is good enough to get to God.
There was a question and answer session in which 6 questions
were asked.
Practice at home what you learn here. Put spiritual values in
effect at home every place. This will lead to a happy peaceful
home life. Peace and happiness go together.
People cannot change over night. It takes time. Have patience.
Everything in the world is being done by Swami. It is our duty
to play the role given to us properly
It is your job to control your mind. It can go toward darknessnegativity or light-positivity. With practice and training you can
control your mind. Mistakes will happen.
Whenever you do something bad, you move away from god.
Always have good company because they lead to good
thoughts. Bab thoughts lead to bad actions. Practice what Sai
says.
While answering questions Baba displayed humor. Several
times there was laughter.
Love is the game. Practice Love. Speak with Love. Always have
a warm heart.
Love what you do. Do what you love. Keep your mind on the
Heart. Do what Heart says. Always be happy.
Swami wants us to be satisfied and happy whether he is here
or not. Have gratitude.
We want to see you happy. He came here to Love. Sai is with
you. Wherever and whatever Swami is with you.
Your thoughts, words and deeds should be the same. Good
deeds will lead to good character.
Baba seemed to enjoy the question and answer session. The
session ended with one of the woman volunteers singing the
song WE Love You, Dear Swami. It was very moving and
powerful especially with everyone joining. The place rocked
with the vibration of everybody pouring their Love to Baba
through the song.
Another song was sung. There was a very devotional loving
feeling for Swami. The volunteers were displaying their
gratitude. They were very happy to be here. Many loud voices.
They probably would go on forever if it werent for arati.
Sukshma Baba walked among the people speaking with them,
taking letters and blessing all. He was outside for what
seemed to be a long time which was great for those who had
to sit in cold weather and without clear sight of Baba.
A man sitting next to me held a letter in his hands slightly
raised above his lap. Several people told him to go closer to
aisle. He didnt but remained in that posture. When Sukshma
Baba and Madhu came back into the hall, Madhu signaled to
the guy to bring the letter to him. When he did so, there was a
long discussion. He returned to his seat very happy.
Baba is going to Mumbai on Monday and Tuesday to visit
someone who is sick.
On the 14th, several poojas will be performed for new buildings
such as the Prayer Hall and Dinning Hall.
From the 15th to the 18th, Sukshma and team will be in Dubai.
At this point, we are not sure if there will be a discourse on the
18th.

There was a very small tent and a very big one which we entered with chairs on
both sides with space covered with green in the middle where the students sat.
As we entered we were able to get good seats as people were just beginning to
take their seats.
The event banner said Sathya Sai Premamrutan Auditorium in the divine
presence of
Bhagavan Sri Sathya Sai Baba, 14 January 2015, Sathya Sai Grama. There were
two large photos. On the left side was the prayer hall auditorium while on the
right side was the new multicultural canteen. Where the tent was will become
the prayer hall and behind us where we entered will be the canteen.
This banner was on the tent wall behind the stage which was big. There were
flower around the outside of the stage. In the middle was Sai Baba special chair
with an attached umbrella. On both sides were two rows of six chairs for
dignitaries. In the front there were one lectern on each side.
Bhajans start at 9:25. We knew that Baba was on the way. Sure enough coming
on the outside of the mens side was a procession moving very slowly. First there
were a few musicians using horns and drums, followed by pundit boys in orange
chanting with cars following and motorbikes. In one of those cars was Sukshma
Baba. The procession stopped at the small tent behind the back of the tent to
perform some rituals.
As the procession came around the tent, especially Babas car, we could feel
energy. We knew Swami was there even without seeing him. As the procession
went to the small tent, the energy increased tremendously. It felt as though the
area was being flooded with energy of the divine presence. It was a blessing. My
heart opened. Felt Love. We were excited that something great was happening.
As the rituals were going on at the other tent, we felt intense happiness.
We used the word flood deliberately. It felt as though we were submerged in an
ocean of Love. It felt as though the Love went from floor to ceiling and from the
back of the tent to the front. It was amazing.
Eventually, the procession continues outside the tent to the front womens side
where Babas car came into the tent itself. Madhu and Sai Baba got out of the
car as did Narasimha. They went onto the stage as did the dignitaries. Baba
went to the center of the stage where he looked at and blessed everyone before
sitting in his chair. Each dignitary touched the footstool or the floor by Babas
chair before being seated.
We felt great joy. We felt like we were exploding with Love for Sai. Baba is Love.
It was permeating all that was there. We had tears.
Many bhajans were sung. At 10:00, 10 of the pundit boys came on stage, touch
Babas feet and stood by the left lectern. They chanted for 5 minutes.
The first speaker was Shiva who reminded us that the reason Baba was here
was for the redemption of man. The Mandir in Prasanthi Nilayam was built for
that purpose as well as the rest of the ashram and other activities. All his
thinking was of his devotees.
History is repeating itself. What is being done here is unbelievable. Baba was
thinking of the devotees. They need shelter from the cool weather and need a
place where they can eat food that agrees with them. Everything will be finished
by 90thBirthday.
The next speaker was Anthony Tan who is a notary from Singapore. It seems
that for many years that Singapore devotees have been united in their support
for Sathya Sai Baba projects. They consider it a great honor and privilege to do
anything for Sathya Sai.
On the 23rd of November 2014, delegates from Singapore met with Sukshma
Baba.
They were told that he wanted to build an auditorium that must be constructed
and built by 90th birthday. They immediately agreed. They are grateful to Swami
for giving them the opportunity to do this seva. They agreed to do both the
prayer hall auditorium and the canteen.
Baba announced that because of their readiness and willingness to undertake
the projects, this was the best birthday gift he has ever received. He thanked
them for taking this opportunity. Baba announced it that evening.
Also this Prayer Hall Auditorium was for his remaining 6 or 7 years as Sukshma
Baba as well as for Prema Sai Baba who will also give darshan here.
Baba has said that contribution must come from the heart.
Any project is 50% effort of the individual and 50% grace of God.
This presentation was straight from his heart. It was touching. We felt special
hearing it.
Narasimha started his talk by reminding us that Love was the greatest power in
the universe. It was the power of Love that causes all these great things to
happen.
In 1986, Baba materialized an object with diamonds. He showed it to everyone.
He put it in his hand and kept talking. Peoples attention was on what was in his
hand and not on what Baba was saying. When he opened his hand, there was
nothing there. He told the boys that if he wanted he turn them all into girls.
(Sai Surya This was further proof that he controls everything. He is the creator
and the destroyer. It is all in his hands).
To be sure the architect knew exactly what Swami wanted he gave a
demonstration. Baba came in a dream taking him to a place where these
stepped down followed by Krishna. A few seconds later, the chariot was
completely destroyed. Krishna explained how he had been protecting Arjuna
from many weapons that would have destroyed him.
Later, when Krishna was about to leave his body, he asked Arjuna to take certain
people away to a particular place. After Krishna left his body, Arjuna was leading
this group when they were attacked. Arjuna who had been a superior warrior
who was undefeated in battle, now lost. His weapons were useless. His power
had come form Krishna. His life had been filled with Krishnas grace.
Baba said that his grace needs to be there. In growing crops, sunlight is
necessary. No matter what you do there will be no crops without sunlight. The
sun is Gods grace.
Time is concentration. Concentration is time. Good concentration allows you to
accomplish a lot in a little time.
Iron fillings are attracted to a magnet. If they are in disarray because they are
dirty, they need to be cleaned before the energy of the magnet can put them in
perfect order. It is important to become magnetized to God. Remove all negative
thoughts. Your concentration grows. Your devotion to god becomes stronger. You
still need grace.
Staff became concerned about the many people who would come to Sathya Sai
Grama wondering where will they sit, eat, etc. People know he is here. Baba
said, Do not be afraid, I have a plan.
Also, Sai said that He was going to give difficult test.
All students will be able to come here to do bhajans. Note: Only a few of them
are able to experience bhajans with Baba now because of the limited space and
the many other people.
Everyone will be able to come together for community bhajans. It will be
beautiful.
Projects are done when it is the right time. When the time is right Sai Baba
undertakes a project. We do not do things. They happen because of God.
The canteen here will be for the foreigners who travel a long distance and come
from different countries. It will be for Indians and foreigners. All of these things
are being done for our sake.
God is doing everything. You are an instrument.
Sathya Sai Baba says he has made progress in 3 areas: Education, Health
Careand Water Projects. One of the water projects has been delayed because
of the splitting of the state. Now that the situation is stabilizing, progress will be
made.
A new area that needs urgent attention is Electricity. Having no power has a
negative effect on children in many ways. Today, we started a solar power
project here. Instead of building a big project and transmitting the electricity
over long distances with a resulting loss of power, the idea was to go local.
Every area should have its own solar power unit.
The concept is to start by having every campus have solar power. Each campus
will branch out to the surrounding communities. Eventually all villages will have
solar power and electricity.
Note: A solar plant was dedicated at Sathya Sai Grama on 89 th birthday which
will soon generate enough power for the whole campus. For now it is used in
preparing food, bathing and as backup in some areas.
Two people were here today from Australia. The Australians are doing great
service. There were 300 people at the reception in Australia. The house was on a
hill. Yet, all the comforts needed for the devotees for three days were taken care
of. They did everything. A great job. Now they are helping us with a new
college.
When all these projects are finished, my mission will be completed.
He praised the people around him. Some of them have been with him in this
body for 60 years. Whatever Baba tells them to do, they do immediately. Only
by sacrifice do you get immortality.
People were chosen to be here.
At 11:15 bhajans started and then arati. There was no walking darshan. Baba
got into the car and left with his entourage. They went to the solar pane factory,
a private project, where Baba blessed them.
We were glad we came. It was a great morning with valuable insights into many
aspects of Baba and what is happening.
It was reported that Sukshma Baba would go to Mumbai on Monday and
Tuesday.
This did not occur.
His plan is to still go to Dubai from the 15th to the 18th. Discourses are expected
to resume on 22 January.

Sai Surya
Parents came with their children. Always a fun group to watch as one never
knows what they are going to do and how the younger will react to bhajans. A
few like to dance to the music. Joy.
Cooler evenings came as the weekend was here. On the big day, it was
necessary to bundle up a bit until the Sun came up. The weather was sunny and
clear. The day proceeded smoothly as all the events went off efficiently. The
traditional parade, band march, torch going up to the top of the mountain all
took place after Sai Baba came to the stage in convertible. Of course, a life size
picture was used but you could be sure that Swami was sitting in his chair on
the stage enjoying and blessing everyone.
The color for this year was Orange and White representing the bond between
Sai Baba and his students.
The figure used to carry the torch up from the base of the mountain to the top
was a
Pegasus, a horse with wings. The lift was successful. Torches were lit as well as
color smoke sent up. A romantic magical moment.
The events of the morning are best described as precision movements whether
it was bike riding, lions dancing, ball bouncing, or dance formations.
The afternoon was filled with dance formations, body movements, martial arts
and cultural dances as well as some interesting aerial stunts done using rope
and ladders
As darkness fell there was LED performance and fireworks. The LED
performance was interesting as people would seem to disappear into the
darkness when their lights went off and reappear as some of them went on.
It would be best to tune into Radio Sai to watch the video. Experience the Joy.
Monday January 12 Brindavan Brass Band. Brindavan led the cultural
festival by being the first group to perform. They let their Love and Gratitude
pour forth with their music. Their performance included western music and
bhajans.
The Governor Governor E.S.L. Narasimhan of Andhra Pradesh and Telangana
was here on a two day visit to the MahaSamadhi.
Tuesday January 13 Anantapur. It was the womans turn to participate in
the cultural program. Their MusiVisual presentation was called This Spake
Faith. It was about the unity of religions.
With the aid of visuals, actors and chanting important messages were touched
upon from each religion. God is One - Man is Divine. Nine religious groups
were covered.
Baba said, When we understand the oneness of humanity, one can understand
Divinity.
Wednesday - January 14 Makara Sankranti. The morning program began
with a procession led by the University Brass Band, followed by the flag squad
and Veda chanting. There were speeches about the significance of Sankrati, the
importance of the annual Sports and Cultural Meet and the meaning of wearing
White and Orange.
There was a speaker representing each of the four campuses. They felt Babas
presence and influence as they prepared for the meet. It builds self-confidence,
self-satisfaction and self-sacrifice which leads to self-realization.
The event teaches perseverance, surrender and detachment. There is also an
element of amazement that all of this happened the way it did.
After trophies were awarded, Baba gave a discourse. All should lead an ideal life
always with virtues and character. Also, do your duties with confidence. Bhajans
and the Brass band led to arati.
Evening
The grand finale of the cultural festival was a drama Sathya Sai Avatara
Rahasya. It was the results of Prasanthi Nilayam, Brindavan, Muddenahalli
campuses, the Mirpuri College of Music and the higher secondary school
combining to make it possible.
This is a drama to watch. The good acting, the stories, the messages, costumes
and artwork were all well done. A 100 minute story that had me glued and
forgetting where we were. We felt like we were part of the drama. One message
was that all of creation was part of the creator who descended in different forms
to help man.
The drama was For Him, By Him, To Him and With Him.
Thursday January 15 Continuing the celebration of Sankranti, students
presented a musical consisting of songs in different languages including some
Sufi devotional tunes.
Evening Thyagaraja Aradhana Musical tribute by students and staff of
Mirpuri College of Music to Saint Thyagaraja. He was one of the leading
champions of Carnatic Music, lived from 1767-1847 and is said to have been
initiated by Sage Narada.
Baba Thoughts
You have immense potency within you. Like the light that illumines, your vision
must be pure, sacred and pleasing. Do not taint or pollute the blessing of sight
by looking at undesirable objects, or by looking with bad thoughts. A magnetic
energy circulates in you. Although this energy is present throughout the body,
its presence is conspicuous in the hand. Hence the hands should be employed
for good purposes. They should never be used for harming others. The ears
listen to gossip, slander and evil talk. The result is that the power of hearing
gets polluted. Also the power of speech. This power finds expression in sound
waves and it has to be used with great care. The words one utters should be
examined to see that they do not excite, irritate or anger others. Bad words
come back to the speaker with double strength. Hence one's speech should be
soft and sweet. (My Dear Students, Vol 5, Ch 14, 14 Jan 1996).
You may encounter any number of losses and difficulties in life. You may
undergo a lot of suffering. But, you should never give up truth, faith and love.
Loss, suffering and difficulties are like the waves in the ocean of life. They just
come and go. But the water of the ocean is permanent. Hence develop the faith
of water, i.e., Divinity. The power of the divine name is unparalleled. Do not
take it lightly. Gods name is the real diamond. Keep it safe and secure. Do not
ever be bothered by pain and suffering, losses and difficulties. Your thoughts are
like the passing clouds. Once you seek refuge in the lotus feet of the Lord, never
give it up. Wherever you go, the divine feet will protect you. If you install the
divine name firmly in your heart, your life will become sanctified. That is
devotion (bhakti). That is your power (sakthi). That is liberation (mukti).
Human life is highly sacred, noble and divine. It should not be wasted in
unworthy pursuits. Take to the sacred path and sanctify your time by chanting
the divine name. There is no need to allocate a specific time or place for
Namasmarana. You can do it wherever you are and whatever you are doing. One
needs to pay tax for water, electricity, etc., but there is no tax for
Namasmarana. Nobody can stop you from doing it. It is very simple, yet most
effective. Many people do not realise its immense value as it is so easy to
practise. They think incorrectly that God can be attained only through severe
austerities. Chant the divine name without troubling yourself or causing trouble
to others. Cultivate love for God. Do not criticise or ridicule anybody. Give
happiness to all by sharing your love selflessly. This is true spiritual practice.
Follow this simple path, experience ananda and sanctify your lives .

My body was reacting to this special energy. Bhajans start at 6:00. My body was
still reacting. Five minutes later, the elevator opens and out comes Sukshma
Baba
We watch as he sits on his chair.
Pure Love is sitting in the Chair
No Form - Just a bundle of Love.
During Dr. Setty talk about Baba coming to his house, he reminded us that we
can call Baba anytime for any problem. Sai Baba can do anything. He can solve
any problem no matter how knotty or messy. He is the Lord of the Universe.
Everything we do we should always have Baba in our thoughts. We should
always do what Swami wants. He is the highest. Remember Swami in all
situations. We cannot describe Dr. Setty vibration other than to say it was very
strong. His intense connection with Baba was obvious
Narasimha added to this talk by saying that Swami does not come from
anywhere as he is everywhere.
People try to make deals with god. If you do such and such, we will remain with
you, we will pray to you, etc. instead of them surrendering completely to God,
they want God to surrender to them.
Baba is here for each of us only. He is not going anyplace.
Baba spoke with Madhu repeating what he said and Narasimha translating into
English.
Devotees who are desireless are very dear to me. Be detached from worldly
events.
Whatever your duty, perform it offering it to God. It is difficult for devotees to be
desireless because the mind is a bundle of desires.
The way to reduce your desires is to get rid of attachments one by one.
Give up narrow mindedness. Become broad-minded. All of you are one.
On Sport & Culture meet all students should feel you are one. Competition
should be cooperation everywhere. Be detached from the results. There is no
wrong in losing. Have no worries. All are ideal students.
All games have rules. While playing the game, everyone should be happy. Have
nothing but Love. Develop unity and compassion. Give to others. Share.
Always ask yourself: Whatever I do Swami should be Happy Be Selfless. Sai
should be happy with me.
The mind should be clean with pure thoughts.
Do not concentrate on the body.
Be in the present with what you do. Have good concentration. This is a gift of
god.
Do the best for the moment. Trust God. Always be broadminded. Whatever has
happened has happened. Forget it. We go from pleasure to pain to pleasure.
Always be equal minded.
All campuses belong to one. There is no competition. Everything is being done
by God. All students are mine. They are near and dear to me.
Sai Baba does not do anything for himself. He has everything. Every action is for
our benefit. He gives us opportunities to grow. Do what please Swami.
Offer everything to Swami.
All boys in school now will not be able to remain here. They will have to leave to
go to college and into the world. Develop your roots now so that you will be
strong and secure able to withstand the storms of the world.
After arati, Baba took some letter, spoke with a few people and spent a few
minutes
outside. The walking darshan was short catching everyone by surprise expecting
a longer one. But all is well. Everyone got blessed.
All prayers, request and letters were answered.
Sports and Cultural Meet start Monday and goes through Thursday ending on
Friday with award ceremonies.
We are all blessed to be any part of it. Rejoice.

Madhu threw a Rose to a man who was exceedingly happy to receive it.
A woman spoke to Baba about her missing husband. She was told that he would
return. A few moments later, Baba said to the woman Mad Man.
Earlier in the day, a person who was watching Babas car coming from the
sports field saw Sai Baba in a physical form.

Sai Surya
Sai Ram,
The Sri Sathya Sai Annual Sports and Cultural Meet took place at the outdoor
stadium at Sathya Sai Grama starting on Monday, 26 January. The nine
educational
campuses that are participating were from Alike, Gulbarga, Mandya, Jayapura,
Muddenahalli and Chikaballapur. Five thousand students were involved.
Flags from various countries were flying around the stadium. Hugh pictures from
different campuses were displayed in the background. The stands were packed
with people who had to dress warmly, many wrapped in blankets at least until
the sun came up.
The inaugural procession, which started at about 7:30 a.m., included the brass
band, dance movements, flags of different colors with students and participants
standing in formation on the infield in their colorful uniforms. You could feel their
Love. It was intense. The Love for the Light of their world - their universe.
Sukshma Baba presence was felt as the car moved through the stadium. Sathya
Sai came to center stage.
Everyone basked in His Love as they watched and enjoyed gymnastics,
acrobatics, aerial, motorbike and horseback stunts, Chinese lion movements as
well as Indian cultural dance movements. There was also a display of basketball
skills.
One of the events was a tribute to Sathya Sai Baba being the Supreme Lord.
A beautiful morning as the temperature warmed up and the blankets came off,
people and participants were overwhelmed by Babas Love as he enjoyed the
events done with gratitude, love and devotion for Him.
Baba used this day to announce that by Sports and Cultural Meet next year, he
will build an Indoor Stadium and Swimming Pool. Baba does everything for his
students.
His Love for his Students is endless.
Attached are some photos.

ballad entitled Dashavataram which was followed by a Kannada drama

Sai Ram,
Another incredible evening where we werent sure what was going to happen. It
was great. Since it was the continuation of Sports and Cultures week, the
evening events took place in the outdoor stadium.
It has been used for athletic and cultural programs in the morning which took
place on the open field. For the evening we needed to be facing the stage. The
boys put up vertical and horizontal poles so that a tent top could be tied to it. It
was amazing watching these boys who acted without a care in the world climb
the vertical poles and move along the horizontal one without any difficulty. Soon
enough area was covered for both men and women.
Between the stage and us was a small tent was put up to cover the area where
Swami would be sitting. Baba was center to the stage. On both side white chairs
with arms were placed for dignitaries. Men sat on both sides of Baba but on the
womens side there was a small section for women separated from the men.
The people under the tents were able to see part of the stage and watch on
large video screens on both sides. They came in very handy. On the stage was
screen in the center which was also used as part of the program before the
drama. Next to both sides of the stage building were two large speakers.
With musicians on stage, dignitaries and people waiting, an announcement was
made that Baba had just left Anandam. We are not sure who it was or whether it
was a recording but it a fabulous voice sang as the car proceeded. His black car
moved very slowly to the stage. Two cars followed.
The car maneuvered between the stage and the tent. The front door opened and
out came Baba who walked to his chair which was facing the stage. We felt
better that he was here.
Narasimhamurthy spoke about religious leaders and their followers. As of now,
while Baba is still alive and active there are about 23 million devotees. Today
was Indulal Shah 95th birthday. There was a gathering earlier to celebrate.
Baba said, Indulal was his greatest devotee. Today there is a Sai Organization
all over the world. Shah gave Baba the idea. He and his wife, Sarla who died on
Sankrati, served Swami all their lives. They never asked anything for
themselves. It was always What can we do for you? to Baba.
Most devotees asked for things for themselves or even if they have a great idea,
it is one in which they benefit. Shah was only concerned about what Baba
wanted. They never prayed for anything for themselves. They looked after Baba
so Sai took complete care of every aspect of their lives and that of the family.
A video message said Many Happy Returns to Indulal Shah. A slide
presentation was made of many pictures of Indulal and/or Sarla were with Baba.
It was wonderful.
We felt the intensity of the Love that was there.
Thought: Who was greater Indulal Shah or Sai Baba? The devotee or the
guru?
From this intense out pouring of gratitude to a man who help make the Sai
organization what it is today to the greatest music composition ever written
about Sai Baba.
Sai Katha was first heard last Sunday. It was incredible. This was the life story
of Sathya Sai Baba from birth to now including some mentions of previous
existences.
Baba suggested that such a song should be put together. Originally, they used
one that had been previously composed. However, Baba was not content. He
wanted a new one from birth onward.
Students from various campuses such as Brindavan, Prasanthi Nilayam and
Muddenahalli worked together to compose the new song. Ages 14 to 54. They
behind Baba.
The singing was great with their wonderful voices as were their acting and
dancing
Rama said that he has been waiting a long time for Hanuman to come to him.
Ravana who had many wonderful traits, knowledge and scriptural understanding
was pulled down by one intense desire for a worldly illusion known as and
created by Sita.
One bad trait can make good vibrations become worthless.
He was given one last chance to surrender to Rama. Hanuman said surrender to
Rama or be doomed. We cannot have fear and see clearly. God always gives us
a chance to redeem ourselves.
It was a happy drama with different situations placed in a positive light. We
thoroughly enjoyed it.
Hanuman was portrayed as the ideal example of devotion. The story of the
coronation with the gems being discarded because Hanuman couldnt hear
Rama name in them while his hair resounded with His name was one example to
show the intensity of his devotion.
He is an example of Love and Devotion in action as well as the importance of
surrender. There were many good messages in the play.
The vibrations of the drama were happiness, peace and joy.
In a number of places, the name Swami was used instead of Rama
conveying the message that they are the same. Hanuman is part of Rama. They
are One.
The finale was very moving. Baba was sitting in a chair facing the stage while
his special chair came into the background. They prayed to Baba with intensity
and such devotion that we were about to cry. My heart was opening.
The Love to Swami. The Heart to Swami.
Swami was led up to the stage with his entourage to sit in His chair. The chair
was moved forward. All with great reverence. Baba spoke to Hanuman and then
others.
Arati was sung. We waited for Baba to leave in his car. Students lined the
blacktop track to take darshan. Finally the car went by.
Surprise was in store for all of us. When we came to the road outside the
stadium, people were lined up to where the passenger side of the car would go
by. Baba would be sitting in the front seat. Swami had not gone to Anandam but
was at the other end of the road.
We waited for the car. Finally it came moving so slowly that a turtle would have
been able to move faster. We waited in great anticipation for the Lord of All to
come. His window was open as was Madhu who was seated right behind Swami
in the back seat. He took letters. Slowly the car moved forward and turned to
Anandam.
What was remarkable was that there were no seva dals or anyone to control the
crowd. There was no need. Everyone was orderly and respectful.
As we thought about what had happened, we remembered that Rama had done
the same thing. He would move through Ayodhya slowly giving all the people an
opportunity to benefit from his presence.
Once again, Baba reminded us that he is the same Rama.

students, actually everyone, is part of the oneness that is divinity and God.
After his 20 minute speech, he did again what he did Thursday night. As he left
after arati, Baba proceeded along the blacktop track to the back and then down
the road.
All of which was done very slowly giving each person a chance at darshan and
to give letters.
In the afternoon, students were hosted by Sai Baba in Anandam. They were
given school backpacks and other items.
Baba said that by next year the Indoor stadium and Swimming Pool will have
been completed. There will be many more participants. He expects those who
are here to lend assistance to the new people.
A great day. Everyone was happy.

Sai Surya
Love is the answer for our change. When Baba was a boy, he was known for his
Love and Compassion. Today, he is still best known for his Love and
Compassion.
Sathya Sai and Sukshma Sai are manifestations of Love and Compassion. Sathya
Sai Baba physical body was nothing more than the five elements manifested
into a form. The form is in Prasanthi Nilayam but that which was Sai Baba,
known as Love and Compassion, is and always will be with us.
However, we must practice Love and Compassion at all times. Not just practice
but to the level of feeling Love and Compassion.
Tuning into the experience of Sathya Sai helps us to develop and maintain
unconditional love. This Love will automatically become selfless service. We will
become a true devotee. We have to have Love and Service. You cant have one
without the other.
A mother of a two year old baby knows what her child needs. When her baby
requires something, the mother is ready and willing to give it.
Sai Baba is the same way. When we require something, Sai assist us. We need to
be like Mothers.
When we sing from our hearts, we make Baba happy. Swami is happy when we
practice his teachings. Students and devotees are to be an example to the
world.
The only path to know him is to do service.
One student wanted to find god by going to the Himalayas. Baba said no. The
student learned that by doing service one gets closer to Baba. It is good to do
selfish service. There are many opportunities.
However, it is rare to get an opportunity to serve Swami directly. Do what he
asks as selfless service. This is a special occasion. No need to go anywhere else
or take a break. It is special when asked.
The avatars gave people around them the grace of performing service. Now it is
our opportunity.
Sukshma Baba spoke to Madhu which was translated into English by Narasimha.
There was no king who was ever as charitable as Rama. He always gave.
Wherever he was and whatever he was doing, Rama was always giving charity.
Your life should be one of sacrifice. Give your wants away. Give up I. We
identify with the body. As a result we look at everything from a slanted negative
view - only from our perspective. Be universal.
God is all Atma no body or mind. Give up identification with the body and mind

Sai Surya
the energy and the expression of the Lord were special. It affected us all.
We remember the first time we witnessed this gratitude to workers. People had
been working on the curve glass roof in Sai Kulwant Hall. When it was finished
all the workers were assembled on the white tile floor in front of Swami. He
thanked them, blessed then and gave gifts. It was easy to see that they were
touched and moved by this gesture.
Narasimha spoke about the Old Mandir which was 6 feet by 12 feet. It is still
there.
He remembers the day that Baba inaugurated it. The boys lined the road. Baba
was very happy with it.
People live a simple life. Teachers have dedicated their lives for the students.
They even live in the hostel to always be available.
On the day of his visit Baba went to every part of the hostel and other places to
inspect and bless.
One day, Sai Baba was to go several places, many new cars were offered for his
use. However, he preferred to use his own older Ambassador. On the way to
Alike,
the car overheated. While waiting for the engine to cool off, a crowd of people
had gathered. They somehow knew he was coming, were waiting for him at that
spot while doing bhajans.
Baba continued his journey over dusty roads, with no air conditioner or fan and
windows opened. When they arrived at their destination, his hair was red.
After taking a shower, Baba went to dedicate a temple late at night where he
also delivered a discourse at about midnight.
Narayana Bhat who dedicated his life to self realization and service to humanity
started the Alike and Muddenahalli Campuses. After his death, Baba promised
Bhats mother that he would fulfill Narayana dream.
Also, that he had a master plan that would produce 60,000 students who will
fulfill his mission.
Six new schools have been created in Karnataka and there will be many more.
Baba said that to fulfill Bhats prayers, 30 schools will be created. However, we
do not know if all of them will be in Karnataka.
A girls high school has been started. A beautiful area about 15 km from Sathya
Sai Grama has been chosen for a new womens college. Dr. Vinodhini Mahishi
has been chosen as chairman of the campus. Baba says that the campus will
grow. He has blessed it.
We should sanctify our lives to Baba. We will all be blessed.
Sai Baba spoke to Madhu who repeated what was said which Narasimha
translated into English.
He was very happy and expressed his gratitude to the kitchen workers for their
dedication.
The body was given to man to help others serve others.
Swami always works. If he were to stop, the universe would cease. The heart
beats because of Swami. Digestion occurs because of Swami. Everything is
because of Swami.
We need to sanctify our lives. We should always have strength and confidence.
We could accomplish anything. Be sincere.
Devotees come here because Sai is here. Have faith and you can experience all.
You are in a physical body to do selfless service. If you want to be connected
with Swami, you must do work. The bond between Baba and devotees is created
by selfless love.
Uday came from Mumbai because of the bliss and joy, he found here. Only with
selfless service can you find peace, love and God. Serve mankind.
Let God run your lives and solve your problems.
Love All Serve All.
Praising god is not enough. He is not a machine. Attain God by selfless service.
Have Faith. You become Happy because of God. Thank God all the time even
when times are difficult.
Hanuman chanted Rama all the time. Sita even while a prisoner chanted
Rama all the time.
Many pray to Swami thinking this is a shortcut. You must chant and do service.
See the reflection of everything as God in your own mind.
You master divinity through service. You must realize that I am not doing it
GOD is.
There are so many opportunities to do service.
You cannot solve all the problems. Do what you can do. Do step by step selfless
service.
God is always doing service. He has given free air, water, land and food.

Sai Surya
We were happy that bhajans had start for it meant that Baba would be coming.
A few minutes later Sai came out of the elevator. He greeted a few musicians
and looked around grin at some people.
As he sat on his throne, we saw him centered in the sun. The rays were
extending out from him. Rama came again. Everyone was happy and singing.
Rejoice That Which Is was here. We were blessed.
There were a lot of bhajans. After 35 minutes Narasimha Murthy spoke. He
explained that the audio-visual program was put together by 22 alumni from
Prasanthi Nilayam and Brindavan campuses. It was a type of documentary
dealing with the period from 1945 to 1950.
Narasimha reminisced about a number of events that occurred during these
days.
The group came up to Sai Baba for his blessing and took padnamaskar. They
shared the peace and joy of those days.
The visual part consisted of many photo slides. The audio consisted of
storytelling, singing by the speaker, Baba audiotape and bhajans.
Many of the slides were familiar such as the Old Mandir, schools, houses, Baba
playing, swimming and taking objects from the sands at Chitravatri.
Babas first bhajan was sung Manasa Bhajare with everyone joining.
Many people were not aware of his divinity. They didnt want him living near
them.
As a result Baba slept in places away from other such as by the Wish Fulfilling
Tree, the Cave and other places until he was convinced to stay in a small
building built for
Him on donated land.
The Old Mandir had two statues Shirdi Sai and Sathya Sai. He would have
bhajans sung. During this time it felt like all was one. Sai enjoyed these times.
Devotees were so close to Baba, that when they went onto the sands of the
Chitravatri River they would demand that unless He did a miracle, they would
not return home.
One woman asked Baba for a picture of her husband who died 20 years earlier.
Baba gave her a photo,
Once when the workers wanted to build a new mandir, they came Baba with the
problem that the area had granite that was too had to break. Baba told them to
wait a few days. One night there was a fierce thunder and lightning storm. The
lightning repeatedly struck the granite. Next day the granite was in small pieces.
One time Sai Baba stated that Narayana was here. He has come back to bring
you up.
Narasimha spoke next expressing gratitude for the program. Baba has said that
this is the drama that I played in the physical as Sathya Sai. Sukshma Baba is a
different drama.
Dont fall for the physical form of Sathya Sai and dont get trapped by the subtle
form that is here now. I am Atma. It is a question of perception. I am not
physical.
Whereas as Sathya Sai I came down to your level, with Sukshma Baba you have
to fill the gap by rising up to my level.
It was Love that bridges the gap. Love brought Sai down and Love raises us up.
I am consciousness. Both forms are in Me but I am not in them.
If you want to have some idea what Sai Baba is, go to the atma.
Just after 7:00, Baba spoke to Madhu who repeat exactly what he heard while
Narasimha translated into English.
He was very pleased with the audio-visual presentation. It was myself looking at
myself.
In those days people came with selfless love for Swami, to be near Swami and
enjoy Swami. It was very difficult in those days. There was no place to stay.
Subbamma was a very pious lady with 100% devotion to Baba. She spent all day
doing what needed to be done especially making sure that everyone got food to
eat.
She never thought of herself.
Swami is always guarding us. Do something for Baba. Great devotees never
bother about the world.
The story of Subbamma death was told. She died while Baba was away. He had
promised her that he would be with her at that final moment. She lay on the
floor dead. After a few days, Baba returned. Subbamma opened her eyes
immediately. Baba poured Ganges water from his hand into her mouth and she
merged.
Are there any devotees today willing to do anything for Swami?
God is happy when we are happy. If god is happy, then others are happy.
When in need surrender to god, he will come to the rescue.
