Sunday, December 28th, 2014 Finding fulfillment for the generations-long prayer of a family dedicated to Bhagawan, Smt Sai Swaroopa Iyer from Hyderabad presented a Carnatic Concert at Bhagawan’s Lotus Feet here in Prasanthi Nilayam today. Smt Iyer’s family for generations has been devoted to Bhagawan. Carnatic Offering by Smt Sai Swaroopa Iyer… <http://www.sssbpt.org/images/Carnatic_SaiSwaroopaIyer_Dec2014_2.jpg> Presenting her own compositions, Smt Iyer began with a Sankirtan, Chitravathi Nadhi Theerana, to continue with Mana Sayeeshwarku Janmanichu… a composition on Mother Easwaramma. Sayeeshwarude Avatarinchinu… a composition on the auspicious Birth of Sri Sathya Sai followed next, in Anandabhairavi. The next one in Mohana Raga was inspired by Bhagawan Himself, in Person, Who had blessed the artist once in the Interview Room. The composition Hey Sayee… Hey Sayee Nin Divya Roopamu… was borne out of the bliss of being in His Presence. A composition in Shanmukhapriya Raga, Nee Naama Naamaamrutham next was followed by a piece in Rag Vasantha, on Sai Rama… singing Saketha Raama Sri Raama… Yatra Yatra Raghunatha Keerthanam… wherever Rama Nama Is there, Hanumantha is there and vice versa was the next piece, a composition of Annamacharya in Dharmavathi Raga. Next to come was the title song of the Album dedicated to Bhagawan, a song summarizing all of Bhagawan’s projects. The song “Dola loogu Sai…” was a lullaby invoking The Lord to swing in the heart and was a mesmerizing devotional composition. The versatile artist ended with a traditional Mangalam song, Easwaramma Suta Sathya Swarupa… Jaya Mangalam Subha Mangalam… Singing straight from her heart, in her simple traditional style, the artist for the evening was given a round of applause by the Sunday evening’s appreciative audience. Carnatic Offering by Smt Sai Swaroopa Iyer… <http://www.sssbpt.org/images/Carnatic_SaiSwaroopaIyer_Dec2014_1.jpg> Smt Iyer was accompanied by Sarvasree Anand Narayan on Flute, Mohan Dora on Tabla and Sudheer on Mridangam. The artist and accompanists were felicitated at the end of the session. Bhajans continued and ended with Bhagawan singing Hari Bhajana Binaa…. Mangala Arathi at 1820 hrs. marked the end of the proceedings.

Yet another year has come to an end. Yet another year has dawned. Even as we cross this man made marker of time we look back at the year passed with fond memories, with pains we wish to forget and thoughts of events, meaningful and inscrutable. Introspecting, one wonders how every new beginning is also marked by an end. The night ends for the dawn to break; a new year is born when the older year fades. Time gives birth to time. Time alone consumes time. Time bows to none. And God is described as ‘Kalagarbha’, the One in whose womb is borne Time itself. Could we ask for more than to be guided and guarded, lead and loved by such a Lord Himself! Let us hold on to that anchor and welcome this Golden New Year. Yes, with Him by our side this is going to be a glorious time for us! Let us begin a New Dawn of Sai Era and spread Sai’s message of Universal Love among all.

Bhagawan lovingly answers this most important question for us today. Today’s Sai Inspires from Prasanthi Nilayam, Sunday, December 28, 2014 <https://scontent-a.xx.fbcdn.net/hphotos-xpa1/v/t1.0-9/10881590_777446755677798_2425941950612280514_n.jpg?oh=806f52114fb01f42800e383c617c917e&oe=552DA0A7> A cleansed and pure heart is the most appropriate altar or tabernacle for the Lord. In that fragrant bower, the Lord will establish Himself. When the Lord establishes Himself, at that very moment, another incident too will happen. The group of six vices that had ...infested the place will quit instantly, without any farewell or fanfare. When these vices quit, the wicked retinue of evil tendencies and vulgar attitudes which live on them will break camp and disappear without leaving even their addresses! Then one will shine in one’s native splendour of Truth and Love (Sathya and Prema). That person will endeavour without hindrance to realize the Self, and finally succeed in merging with the Universal and Eternal. Liberated from the tangle of ignorance or maya, the mind will fade away. The long-hidden secret will be revealed. - Bhagavatha Vahini, Ch 1, “The Bhagavatha”. When your heart is filled with good thoughts and feelings, all that comes out of the senses - your speech, your vision, your action - will all be pure.-BABA.

Just close your eyes, imagine the light of the Lord shining bright within you, glowing in you, comforting you, caressing you... and then begin to listen to this. <http://media.radiosai.org/www/mp3download/In-the-Silent-Night.mp3> Download Vocals: Vidya G | Lyrics & Composition: Sai Kaustuv Dasgupta | Music Arrangement & Keyboard: Anirudh S In the silent night Stars are shining bright We can see the holy light In everybody's heart We will keep Thy holy light Every moment day n night Every soul will feel Thy light Thy love n light Sing Thy glory to praise the Lord Sing Thy story to spread His love Sing Thy glory to feel Thy love To be Thy love Isn't this offering beautiful? Now what will add more beauty to this when you hear it once again is the story of how this came about. The lyrics and tune were by Sai Kaustuv Dasgupta, and here is his Christmas tale of joy: The story of how my Sai blessed me with this gift last year is beautiful. I had finished doing a special wallpaper for Christmas. It was a collage of myriad expressions of Swami – smiling, surprise, silent, gazing, glowing, gentle... and on top of all this I placed the characteristic Santa Claus' red cap. Beside this was another picture of Swami interacting with a little one dressed in Christmas red and white, and now below this there was little space and here I wanted to write one line... something which will summarise this entire art. I did think long and hard about it that night but nothing that I like surfaced in my mind. So I let it go... I prayed to Him and quit the day. The next morning the first thought that enveloped me were these words “Joy to the World... the Lord Is Come”. I was so happy! I changed it a bit and made it “Joy to the World... Our Sai Has Come”. I felt they were the exact words that would make my creation complete. So I quickly put those words in and it looked perfect now. Glad that it was done, I now shared this with my brothers in Radio Sai so that we could post it on Radio Sai's Facebook page. The moment I sent this, one of them immediately wrote back saying “Oh! So you knew the theme of this year's Christmas Decoration in advance!” I said, “I had no clue... even now I have no clue!” And then he revealed to me how on top of the stage in Sai Kulwant Hall were the words in big, white and bright - “Joy to the World... The Lord Is Come”. I was speechless. I had only tears in my eyes. How else can I express my Love to my Beloved! How else can I thank my sweet Lord for suffusing me with His palpable presence so powerfully yet so silently! I was so filled with His love that morning that I just started singing... and after five minutes I realised that the Ever Merciful Lord has now blessed me again – this time a song! A lovely one! A much cherished Christmas gift. This Christmas gift is not for me alone, it is for everyone. And as Christmas 2014 approached, with great joy I shared this with my Radio Sai brothers and now they have given it such a fantastic shape! The Lord never ceases to amaze you! Let us bask in the bliss of His music. Let us lose ourselves in this superlative Joy of His Love. This song is His! This music is His! Infact this life is His! - Radio Sai Team sourced: <http://media.radiosai.org/journals/vol_12/01DEC14/christmas-audio-special.htm> http://media.radiosai.org/journals/vol_12/01DEC14/christmas-audio-special.htm _____ -- --- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "saimsg" group.
