|
| | Why visit Prasanthi Nilayam when Sathya Sai is omnipresent? | + | | With this in mind, let us not make a mistake of settling for less. Swami breathes and speaks to us through His Sannidhi (the consecrated space in Sai Kulwant Hall that is saturated with His Grace and presence) . In Prasanthi Nilayam. Sri Sathya Sai's advent on the land of Parthi is a planned universal event. | |
| |
| Why did He choose Puttaparthi out of all the millions of places in the world? | + | | Let us see what Swami said—"Puttaparthi is the place which will ensure that we will not have rebirth. If you stay in Prasanthi Nilayam—a sacred Dhama(that transcendental place beyond all the limitations and misery of the material world of birth and death), and you undertake any penance, any sadhana (spiritual practice), any dhyana (meditation), japa (chanting), this place will grant you that blessing of coming out of the cycle of birth and death." What a profound message from the Lord of the Universe! | |
| |
| Well, do you know what is the heart of Prasanthi Nilayam? | + | | It is Sai Kulwant Hall—the powerhouse of this holy place. | |
| |
| Do you know the significance of the green ceiling in the Sai Kulwant hall? | + | | Swami once asked a devotee, "Do you know the reason I suggested the green color? Do you remember what I told you when I gave you this ring?" He said, "Swami! You told me that this is an Emerald Ring. Emerald is for peace, and that I needed Peace!" Swami held the ring and spoke thus: "Exactly. Thousands of devotees arrive here, with many problems. They have Money problems, child problems, Job problems, Health problems, Children's education problems and likewise many many problems. I cannot go on giving Emerald rings to each and every one. What I have done? This is gold, and there is gold up there. This is emerald, and there is the emerald up in the ceiling. What I am doing is that, I am transforming the entire Kulwant Hall into an emerald Hall. Whoever is sitting inside this hall is getting the shower of Divine rays of peace, even without their knowing." Swami further told, "Bhagavan had done this for the sake of devotees; Not for the sake of Bhagavan Himself!!!" | |
| |
| Where else would the divine vibrations go when the Lord Himself walked on this piece of earth for decades? | + | | This place-Puttaparthi, where He taught humanity with instant love, is so charged, and consecrated by love. His guiding hands are even now felt in every being's life; His perennial love is building in every heart; His beautiful smile is divinizing every mechanical life; His silent whispers are ringing in every ear; His eye is on each of us on the Darshan grounds; He is present in every inch of Prasanthi Nilayam. Parthi is still heaven on earth. It is no different than it was when it carried the physical proximity of Swami. He is after all, God incarnate and that is the reason, Prasanthi Nilayam still carries its meaning even now. | |
