Sairam Dear SSSGC-USA Region 2 Center Presidents and Group Leaders,
Below is more on our Esteem Guest of honor - Please share with all sai families at your earliest.
Please join us for a landmark event: the Annual Mid-Atlantic Retreat, featuring our guest of honor, Sri R. J. Rathnakar. This visit marks his first official visit to the USA, offering a rare opportunity to connect with a soul deeply devoted to Bhagawan’s mission.
Sri R. J. Rathnakar is a beacon of service and a guiding light within the Sri Sathya Sai Institutions. As an esteemed alumnus of the Sri Sathya Sai Institute of Higher Learning (MBA), a Trustee of the Sri Sathya Sai Central Trust (SSSCT), and the nephew of Bhagawan Sri Sathya Sai Baba, Sri Rathnakar grew up under Bhagawan's direct personal guidance.
Today, he oversees the global service activities of the Sri Sathya Sai Institutions. During this retreat, he will share his profound insights and experiences, inviting us to embark on "A Journey Forever..."—a unique chance to be inspired by a life dedicated to selfless service and spiritual wisdom.
Let us keep his presence "Foremost in the heart..." as we gather to learn, reflect, and draw inspiration from his journey. We look forward to being in the presence of one who so truly embodies the ideals of love, service, and devotion.
Region 2 is excited to welcome our esteemed guests and their families with a grand procession on Sunday morning. We invite everyone to join the celebration, with a vibrant Dhol and a Palki procession for our beloved Bhagwan. All Children are invited and encouraged to participate by carrying balloons throughout the procession.
To ensure we can accommodate everyone, please register as soon as possible. Updated Bio of Sri Ratnakarji's and Registration link along with other details of the Retreat are in the website below.
Extended Deadline: May 10th
