How to Celebrate Sathya Sai Aradhana Mahotsavam | Shraddha And Saburi

We 'celebrate' the 24th of April every year as the Sri Sathya Sai Aradhana Mahotsavam. What is the meaning of 'Aradhana' that makes it a 'Mahotsavam' (grand festival)? The insightful experiences of Prof Nanjundaiah and Mr. Ramakrishna Reddy make it clear what 'Aradhana' (devoted worship) is not! Then, the stories of Sugriva and Shabari from the Ramayana give us the clear distinction between emotion and devotion. We understand how Shraddha (Faith) and Saburi (Perseverance) are absolutely necessary for Aradhana or worship.
A personal experience during Guru Poornima 2009 which is close to my heart shows how Swami is happy with loyalty and how we get rewarded with the divine 'loyalty points'.
This is a Satsangh originally delivered to devotees at the Sathya Sai Center of Northeast Atlanta on the 20th of April, 2024.

    Sairam to aravind and everyone watching your videos🙏today i saw satya saibaba in vision with his hands folded doing namaskar as he did for the final time in kulwant hall and somebody said”now the satya yuga has begun.”Also saw prof.Anil kumar sitting next to satya sai with other male devotees and everyone were shouting in joy saying”hip hip hooray.”I guess they were shouting for prof.anil kumar as he has reached his ultimate destination.I pray to swami that you including everyone enjoying your satsang be able to reach swami in this very life.sairam🙏🙏🙏

    Sai Ram, Brother..I am overwhelmed to hear from you about the story of garland.. why because when i was studying at ATP i was a member of prayer hall self reliance group...And,every Thursday i had an opportunity to make a beautiful garland to offer at Swami's photo by plucking flowers from ATP hostel gardens... Thank you brother for that story.. Hearing to your satsangs i realize what i am lacking now a days in this mandane world ,unlike those beautiful days at SSIHL.....i.e ,, yearning for god ...😢. Let's all yearn for the god who resides in our hearts ,our hrudayavaasi ,🙏ever and forever..

    What a timely message from Swami. I was thinking I didn’t get opportunity today to offer Mala to Swami and was telling swami that I couldn’t able to do anything for you on Aradhna day. Lo beautiful message from Swami that devotion and love matters not flowers and other offerings.❤️🙏🙏

    Sairam brother... For me 24th April 2011 is the most memorable day because on that day Swami introduced Himself to me and pulled me into His fold forever.. I am ever grateful for this blessing. Therefore.... This day is indeed a celebration day for me. Jai Sairam.

    Sairam.. Thank you brother..,Yes people go to other sai devotees' probably seeming in a high status in the society regarding position,power or money&ask what we should do next, many people who follow them may misunderstand yes this is what Saibaba had said&the meaning of his messages&we should accept it irrespective of our feelings of right, wrong,justice, injustice etc. Often many people bend Swamy's words in a way to be in sync with the crowd &discuss in such a way to the ignorant ones who then believe that is the real truth. There comes the importance of satsanghs like this which exposes correctly what does Swamy meant by many of His messages. Often many are meant to the personal level which cannot be explained to the satisfaction of a crowd of sai believers. Not all devotees can explain to the core of what Swamy really meant by many messages. Doubts can arise at any time regarding some messages which seems difficult to understand in what sense it means without unbiased explanations like this. Jai Sairam🙏
