श्री साई अमृत Vani ऎंड परायण ऑफ़ साई लीलामृत *

श्री साई अमृत वाणी ऎंड परायण ऑफ़ साई लीलामृत
७थ् फेब २००८
जै साई राम

Very Sorry that this week I have to ignore few letters of the old devotees, as they are still writing to the yahoogroup `mysaibaba20' , for the prayers insipte of my repeated letters to them through group as well as individually to write directly to
mailto:veena_gupta_2000@yahoo.com . Very sorry for this. As we receive many letters for prayers and it is not possible to prepare a list of them. However we include them all, in the prayers by Mrs Veena Gupta. We simply prepare a list of all those devotees who give assurance that they will be reciting Sri Sai Amrit Vani on that Thursday and pray to Baba themselves also, along with us for all the help by HIM. Even this list is quite big, which is appended along with this letter.


This week also on Sunday the 3rd Feb. Sai bajans were organized in the Mandir of Sidhartha Extension, New Delhi. Baba Blessed us with Udi at the time of Abhishek. Udi also appeared on Mrs Gupta's lap during the bhajans. This time the Abhishek was done by the head priest of Lodhi Road Sai Memorial Tample of Baba and the singer was Mr. Sandeep Kapoor. He sang the Bhajan mostly from his cassette, which has been released recently and the bhajans which I have already put in the file section of the yahoogroup `mysaibaba21' Devotees enjoyed the bhajans very much. The occasion was the birthday of the grandson of a devotee.

This year it is proposed to hold the Sri Sai Bajan Sandhya on 16th Feb 2008. Abhishek will be at 5:30 and Aartii will start at 9:45 PM. Our son is also coming from Atlanta, to attend the Bhajans. Other son, along with the family will be coming from Chandigarh. Last year it was held on २४ th Feb 2007. I have converted the Bhajans of last year to MP3 from the Video cassette and have put them in the file section of yahoogroup `mysaibaba21' .

Following devotees participated in absencia in the recitation of Sri Sai Amrit Vani, Pooja, prayers to Baba ( Shirdi) and Prayan of Sri Sai Satcharitra/ Sai Leelamrit by reciting Sri Sai Amrit Vani at their places on 7th Feb 2008 (The list is sorted as per their email ids, to avoid duplications) . However Mrs. Gupta prayed for all the devotees, who wrote to us. In this list only those devotees are included, who themselves recited or read Sri Sai Amrit Vani at their places.

This Thursday the 7th Feb 2008 , we enjoyed the following Leelas of Baba (of Shirdi)।
1।Udi started oozing from Monday itself from the two photos on the wall and Hindi words `RAM' `SHAM' `OM' were formed with Udi on one photo. Udi also started oozing from the statue and the photo in the mandir from Wednesday. Words `RAM' `SHAM' `OM' were formed with Udi on the photo.
2. This Thursday also, the Holy Water
started oozing from the Charans from Thursday early morning. A Thali was placed in the night of Wednesday itself, as water starts oozing from the early morning. Thali was emptied several times. The taste of water was similar to gulab jal and kewara mix. This water was also given to the devotees and again the Thali was filled with water.
3. Lap of Mrs. Gupta was filled with lots of Udi during the prayers. Udi was in the folds of the falls of the Sari. Her hands were also filled with Udi.
4. Several devotees had Udi in the books of Sri Sai Amrit Vani and on themselves during the pooja.
5. On Thursday as soon as Bhog was offered, it was duly accepted by Baba. We noticed that the Bhog , which was placed before HIM was partially eaten. Part of Bhog was on the lips of photo and statue of Baba. Different items were there on lips in different photos. Parts of the remains in the box were given to the devotees who offered that item of bhog to Baba.
6. The feeling of Presence of Baba was very strong during the recitation of Sai Amrit Vani, Pooja and Prayer.
7. All the boxes of Bhog, which were kept on the table were blessed with Udi.
8. Many photos/statues and documents etc which were placed before Baba and same were blessed without any delay.
