Why should I spend money for somebody else’s pleasure? I would be better off spending money in putting a deposit on couple of properties.ģ. As a person entangled in this world I would personally think. Why would people want to spend their personal time and money, in sponsoring the festival paying rent for the building in which BABA is shrine.
They would have been better off satisfying their own spiritual needs without having to go to the trouble of trying to build a temple where every Sai devotee would have the opportunity of offering their worship to BABA.Ģ. Why would a group of devotees who performed bhajans every week taking turn at homes think of forming a society to build a Shirdi Sai temple in Sydney. As the time passed, the following questions were also answered:ġ.
He bestows everything that one experiences and one's duty is to be an instrument in His divine hands. The experience is one that of faith, commitment and compassion to the Lord and community. This was similar to the practical demonstration of the experience Sri Das Ganu got from Kaka’s maid in Bombay on the significance of Isha Upanishad. Breakfast, lunch and dinner were prepared by the devotees and distributed by volunteers to everyone.Īt Sydney Sai Utsav, one experienced the selfless love. Annadanam was carried on a large scale, as was done by Radhakrishamai as described in Sai Satcharita, during Baba’s time, so also those who had come to attend the festival in Sydney were fed to their hearts content with the most nutritious and delicious food, all prepared by the volunteers.

SAI UTSAV brings to one's mind Rama navami festival held in Shirdi during Baba's time, as described in 6th Chapter of Sri Sai Satcharitha where each devotee was allocated certain work which they did with complete devotion and faith without any social and professional distinction between them. The three day event included four traditional aarthis as held in Shirdi, Sai pravachans, Bhajans, Sai naam jap, and children’s activities and a night of beautiful bhajans with Sri Manhar Udhas and local talent Sri Avijeet Sarkar. As the shrine was full, the organisers had put up a tent with close-circuit television so the people can sit and relax while watching the proceedings in the temple live. The beauty of his discourse was, he was able to reach all people in simple language that found its mark in everyone's heart and mind.

Satpathyji's discourse was full of spiritual analysis of the mystery of this universe its cause and effect. There were hundreds of devotees registered and attended the festival all eagerly waiting to see and listen to the spiritual discourses by Sri Chandrabanu Satpathyji, some of us from south India had not heard of him, but the journey sure was rewarding. I had this intense desire to visit Shirdi for the last 5 months, but now I can say that, my desire has been fulfilled and I got more than I asked for. Their only aim was to spread the Saitatva - as they described it as “a festival of Sai consciousness, philosophy and spirituality” - which were met at this festival. The credit also goes to the family members of the organisers and volunteers for supporting them in this endeavor from the beginning, without which this function would not have taken place. What caught us the most was the selfless work, personal time and devotion of people comprising - committee members, volunteers, devotees, all coming forward with a single aim of spreading Sai philosophy to all the people in Australia. Saidarbar, Canberra was fortunate to be able to participate as an attendee at this function. It was the first day of Sai UTSAV 2001- spanned over a three-day period and all the members of the Sai Family were looking forward to this event with frenzy. In Sydney there was intense anticipation and people were excited and looking forward to this weekend for altogether a different reason. It was a perfect day to begin the holiday. It was a glorious morning on 9th June 2001 with sun shining and a perfect weather for a beautiful relaxing holiday for the long weekend so many were looking forward to.
