A sign in a monastery read, 'Maintain Silence at all times. Speak only if it improves the silence.' Though wise and deep these words may be, one wonders how spoken words which are nothing but sounds, be facilitators of silence. But each of us, fortunate to have been through an ethereal experience called Darshan, can relate to this deep thought. We would sit in an all-engulfing silence waiting for Bhagawan to come. A still silence where even our thoughts would seem thundering loud. As we waited, oozing through the silence would come by a soft, melodious music - a bhajan being played on an instrument or a set of them, as though some heavenly artist was weaving it with his or her divine talent. That is when we felt it - even a sound can deepen silence. For with that music, our worries melted, questions faded and a tempestuous mind would become a tranquil temple.
Darshan Music - most often it would be an instrumental bhajan track that would be played even as Bhagawan would step out for granting Darshan. Even now listening to such music transports us to Prasanthi or Brindavan, to that moment of joyous anticipation. Even as we prepare to celebrate the 90th year of the Advent, we wish to make a humble effort to recreate that magic for all, though we know it can at best only be an attempt. Starting today we will offer to all our listeners an Instrumental Bhajan Track, specially composed for your listening joy, on every 23rd leading to the big one - 23 Nov 2015! These tracks will also be offered as a ringtone, which you can download.
We have heard Bhagawan declare many times that God is Bhavapriya - One who is pleased with the feeling. But how does one offer feelings to the Lord? Yes, there are many ways, and in fact the only common thing in all that we do, create or offer is the feelings orBhava. But yet, there are few means better to express one's feeling of devotion, than capturing it in a song. And a song not only can be an expression, but it can inspire those sublime feelings in those that listen to them too. So we at Radio Sai endeavour to offer to you every month of this glorious 90th year, along with the instrumental mentioned above, a special song too. These are not songs, but the love of all of us devotees, encapsulated in a song.

13. Allah Ho Akbar | Posted on: 25 July, 2015 | |
* Download Ringtone: "Allaho Akbar; La Illah Ill Allah" - this sacred formula signifies that God is the supreme sovereign; He is the undisputed, unexcelled Ruler of all Creation and He alone is worthy of worship. In the Bhagavad Gita too, Lord Krishna declares: "There is nothing higher than Me." Thus Islam and Hinduism convey the same message. The Holy Koran advises the followers of God to acquire self--confidence and place all burdens on Him. It instructs that one must have implicit faith in the power of God and recognise it every moment to lead a meaningful life. One must follow the path laid down by the Lord until the very end. The Holy Koran is to be looked upon as a guide for the same. It has to be revered and observed down to the very letter. This is the spiritual instruction observed by the followers of Islam. - Sathya Sai Vahini, Ch 23: 'Modes of Worship'. | ||
