On the second day of Dasara, the students covered 23 villages of
Puttaparthi and Kothacheruvu Mandals in the morning after circumambulating the
Mandir. The evening programme started at 1630hrs with Vedic invocation.
At 1650hrs Sri Ajit Popat started his talk in his characteristic style.
He reminisced about the very first Grama Seva and the instructions Bhagawan had
given him and his group then. Stressing on the strength and power of one's
mind, He recounted the four stage of Sadhana or Spiritual Practice as defined
by Bhagawan to him, namely, Feel->Know->Experience->Realise. It is important to
feel that the throne in the Sanctum Sanctoram is not empty. He is seated there
as the eternal witness, he stressed.
In the house of the Lord, there is no regression, frustration or
depression, only Sai Session, he quipped. Concluding with the reminder, "I am
not a beast, I am not a bird, I am a man, I am a Sai Devotee, I am verily God",
Sri Ajit Popat prompted the assembly to follow him in his Jaikars.
Sri R. Raghavendra, son and disciple of Padmabushan Sri Mushnam Raja Rao
and Padma Sandilyan performed a Carnatic concert in the Divine Presence. He was
accompanied on the violin by Smt. Charulatha Ramanujam, Sri Sudhindhra on the
Mridangam and Sri Sashi Shankar on the Ghatam. With his faultless voice, Sri
Raghavendra started the concert with Naadha Tanu Manisham, upping the tempo
with Shiva Shiva Shiva Enna Raaya, continuing with Arunachala Naayakam and
other songs before concluding with Chandrasekara...
The concert was followed by Bhajans by students and concluding with
"Prema Mudhitha.." in the Divine Voice. The artistes were honoured with clothes
and Prasadam was distributed to the assembly. The Publishing department of the
hostel released a new edition of "Vandana" with Divine blessings.
