Monday, September 24th, 2012
Students from Sri Sathya Sai Vidya Mandir, Moosapet, Hyderabad presented a unique programme entitled "Sri Sathya Sai Ashtothara Navaraga Nrithya Malika" at the Sanctum Sanctorum on 20th September evening in Prasanthi Nilayam. The Musical Dance Ballet was an offering based on Sri Sathya Sai Ashtotharam, the 108 Names of Bhagawan, describing His countless Divine attributes.
Designed and choreographed inimitably, the programme was divided into nine segments of 12 Names apiece. Interlaced with thematic songs and dance sequences, the presentation in nine segments contained the gist of each 12 Names, with virtual offering at a special make-shift shrine.

How Bhagawan's own words of inspiration to "go into the society, to serve the needy working with unity, sharing His precious love…" motivated the Sri Sathya Sai Seva Sangh was briefed in the introduction that preceded the programme. Mention was also made of the inception of the school, initially started in a single room, that now that trains hundreds of children, serving the society in Moosapet. Currently the school houses division up to class 10. Professional career courses in Nursing, Pharmacy and Engineering are being provided to children with aptitude.
The society that was founded with the sole purpose of serving as per the guidelines of Bhagawan now extends help to the aged, orphans, disabled and under privileged children of the slums of Moosapet. In September 2011 the school started special training in Fine Arts, Music and Dance under Guru Sri Kala Krishnan, an adept in the field.

Ms Swapna, a student from the school, speaking in Telugu, shared with the audience how right guidance came to the underprivileged children diverting them from a life full of oddities to the present day beauty of being His children at Sathya Sai Vidya Mandir. Swapna ended up pledging on behalf of all students, to work for Bhagawan's mission till their final call.

Radha – Supreme Devotee Of Lord Krishna

Radha – Supreme Devotee Of Lord Krishna

Monday, September 24th, 2012
Pine for dhara, dhara and you find that you are pining for Radha, Radha, said Bhagawan discoursing on the Unmatched Supreme devotion of Radharani for Bhagawan Sri Krishna. Many are the wondrous tales of her devotional feats for Lord Krishna and Bhagawan had narrated some such wondrous tales in His Divine Discourses. Remembering the Mother Of Supreme Devotion, Radharani, a couple of beautiful stories from the life of Radharani, as recounted by Bhagawan Himself.
You can understand Radha only if you can fathom the depth of that thirst. Radha believed that Krishna is the Adhar (basis) and she did Aradh (worship) to Krishna in a continuous Dhara (stream). In fact, she is dhara or nature which is another form of the Lord or Purusha Himself. Prakrithi is dhara. Think of it always. Pine for dhara, dhara and you find that you are pining for Radha, Radha. So Radha is the becoming and Krishna is the being.
There is a story about Radha and her faith in Krishna. The elders in Brindavan who revelled in scandalizing Krishna set an ordeal for Radha to test her virtue. She was given a mud pot with hundred holes and was asked to bring water in that pot from Yamuna to her house! She was so full of Krishna consciousness that she never knew the condition of the pot. She immersed it in the river repeating the Name of Krishna as usual with every intake of the breath and every exhalation. Every time the Name Krishna was uttered, a hole was covered, so that by the time the pot was full, it was whole! That was the measure of her faith. Faith can affect even the inanimate objects.
On another occasion, She was sent to one of the villages, and in agony she sang, "There is trouble in the village and there is not a shade where I can take shelter! So I have come and I am maintaining this life breath in myself for your sake. Show Yourself atleast in my dream. My mind cannot rest even for a moment if I cannot see You. You are like my eyeball within myself, if I am to describe You. But if I have to see You, You are like a small baby who is outside me. But if I have no eyeball in me, then I cannot even look at this small baby. You are the One Who shows and You are the One Whom I aspire to see. In Your gross human form, will You show Yourself to me atleast once? At that time Krishna was in Mathura. In the prayer of Radha we notice that even though she had no place for her to take shelter, yet she was maintaining her life breath solely for the sake of Krishna. While she was engaging herself in this kind of introspection, it looked to her as if her companions were playing some games. One group of gopikas were singing and saying that Gopala has returned. As soon as she heard that song, she thought that Gopala has really returned and she jumped out of the bamboo thicket into the hot sand and she was running forward to meet Gopala, not minding the heat of the sand.
Radha's bhakti was such that she was always on the banks of river Yamuna, both in the heat and in the cold. In the heat, her body was getting scorched, but she never bothered.

Radha Is My Heart And I Am Her Soul…Together We Form The Cosmic Whole…

Radha Is My Heart And I Am Her Soul…Together We Form The Cosmic Whole…

Sunday, September 23rd, 2012
 
Today, on 23 September, the world does celebrate, Sri Radha Ashtami…the birth in the village of Barsana, of the truly Beloved, of the Beloved One…the birth of 'Radha Bhav'…that feeling of superlative surrender and unparalleled dynamic devotion that lies hidden, buried deep within each one of us…waiting to rise to the fore…to find fulfilment at the Lotus Feet…The feelings that flow below are for Radha, celebrating the appearance day of Radharani…! a poem by Ms Jullie Chaudhuri.
When Like Radha One Does Pine…Krishna Affirms – "You Are Mine…!"
'Oh! Radharani,
I seek Your benevolence,
Your grace and mercy,
To inch closer to Krishna,
To follow the path of devotion,
Consciously,
Ably, adroitly, flawlessly,
Oh! Sweet Radhika,
You, Who are the most beloved of Krishna,
How did You master the art of devotion,
So faultlessly, immaculately, supremely…?
Enlighten me, I implore You,
I need to know…I do,
What does Krishna mean to You…?
Saints, seers, yogis,
So too, the scriptures,
Your zealous adorations extol…'
As I did thus the Aadhar,
The support of Krishna cajole,
A divinely mellow voice within me did unroll -
"I am His Heart…And Krishna…
He is my Soul…"
Oh, with extreme enchantment did my love soar,
Diving deep,
I earnestly did entreat to hear more,
About the One,
Whom my heart and soul did long for and adore…
This time I did steer my questions,
To the Blue-Boy,
The heartbeat of Gokul and Brindavan,
To Nandanandanan -
'Oh! Krishna, Oh! Govinda,
Oh! Mukunda,
Just what did Sri Radha mean to You…?
Her name does suggest the quintessence of worship,
Of Aradhana -
A celestial flow,
A ceaseless dhara,
Ever pristine, selfless, supreme, unconditional,
And unsurpassably pure,
Ensuring a consistently transcendental allure…

Oh! Krishna, Oh! Kesava,
Oh! Madhusudhana,
Hey Muralidhara…
Wholesome sentiments,
Abundant and true,
Does unendingly flow from Her to You,
She is as eternal as You signify eternity,
You are the Supreme Purusha and She represents Prakriti,
You, the Ultimate Personality of Godhead,
And She is Your Shakti,
An indelible expansion of Your spectacular energy,
You, the Ocean of Bliss,
Into which merges Radha,
A steady stream of devotion that flows on ceaselessly,
Epitomising Ananya Bhakti…
Oh! Beloved Krishna,
You wanted to experience such Bhakti,
As such what it means to be a devotee,
That superlative feeling,
That matchless sentiment,
That undiluted dedication,
In all its gleaming glory,
Thus accordingly,
Your heart did transform,
Going on to assume a form,
So delightful and charming,
Engaging and enchanting,
Devotion took on an evergreen appeal,
Celestial beings did shower,
Multi-hued fragrant flowers;
Along with the sound of conches,
Innumerable temple bells did peal,
With distinctive zest and zeal,
On the 8th day of the bright half,
Of the month of Bhadra,
Across the region of Barsana,
Announcing the arrival of Radha,
Come to play Her ultra special role,
Compatible to Your Divine Advent at Mathura,
As Sri Krishna…
There are legends surrounding the emergence ,
Of Sri Radha,
While one does state,
She was found in a field by Maharaj Vrishabhanu,
The other does declare,
He discovered Her floating along the holy Yamuna,
Upon a lotus flower,
Maharaj Vrishabhanu,
Then presented the luminous baby to his wife,
Kirti Sundari…
Soon after Janamashtami,
Is celebrated Radhaashtami,
The Appearance Day of Srimati Radharani…

Every atom in the air of sacred Brindavan,
Along with all those that tread the soil of Vraj,
Sing out the glories of Radhika,
Her sacrosanct name,
Is forever placed before Yours, Oh! Madhava,
For none can equal or surpass,
Her interminably…immortally selfless adulation,
She, upon Whose name when Rishis do contemplate,
Overwhelmed with bliss,
They are rendered speechless,
Into a prolonged trance-like state,
With which nothing can ever equate,
Such is the divine energy and celestial love,
That a sole thought of Sri Radha does radiate,
Forever She seeks You,
Oh! Beloved One, both within and without,
Only with Your name does each heartbeat pulsate,
Thus to Her as 'Krishnamayi' many do relate…
Oh! Lord Krishna,
You and Radha are indeed One,
But to enjoy superlative devotion,
You deemed it so to become two,
Tell me do,
Grant me a clue,
What does the aradhana of Sri Radha mean to You…?
Eventually, what does the resplendent Radhika mean to You…?'
Thus so, upon the wide expanse of the inner screen,
Through the magnificent vistas of Dwapara,
My mind did scroll;
Along the narrow lanes and pathways,
Of Brindavan,
As I did reverently stroll,
Where each atom, each particle of dust,
Every drop from the holy Yamuna,
Did 'Radhe Radhe' 'Radhe Radhe' chant and extol…
In the hush of that awesome twilight,
The gentle breeze played a significant role,
Wafting a wondrous whisper,
As joyful as the gay dance around a maypole,
Magnifying the muffled murmur inspiringly out of control,
For it was from the Beloved One,
Who is undoubtedly the promised eventual goal -

"When like Radha one does pine…
I as Krishna…do affirm -
'You Are Mine…You are Mine…'
For
Radha is My Heart…and I…
I am Her Soul…
Together We go on to form the Cosmic Whole…"
