Description

Sathya Sai Baba left His body on April 24th 2011. Since 2014 one heard that He is still present in His light body in Muddenahalli, close to Bangalore. I asked Baba inside of myself if this is true. He then sent me a dream, where I saw Baba sitting on a chair. This chair I realized later was the same chair I saw in the videos (Sai Vrinda on YouTube shows videos of Madhu (who sees Baba in His light body) giving Darshan).Since it was said, that He will only be available in His light body for a few more years, I decided to travel to India to find out what was happening in this ashram!On October 18th I arrived in Bangalore in the middle of the night. The taxi chauffeur I had ordered wasn't there. An Indian man helped me and made a phone call. Then I travelled all alone at night by taxi to the ashram! Since there is not much room in the ashram, I stayed in the middle of a coffee plantation called Nisarga at Muni Swamy's. It is quite expensive but still cheaper than a hotel. There are lots of hibiscus flowers at Nisarga. And towards the ashram there are trees with beautiful blooms! At Nisarga and the ashram are several monkey colonies who fascinated me. In Canada one can only see them in the zoo! Dogs with their puppies provided many photo subjects!At first, I only wanted to stay for three weeks but in the end, this turned into three months! Every morning one can take part in OM singing and Subrabatham and afterwards Sankirtan (walking through the ashram singing). One walks up to the Sri Sathya Sai Anandam building, which has a clock tower. Sai Baba stays there in His light body and the interviews take place there. After that I joined the kitchen team until breakfast time at 8 am. If necessary, I helped some more later on. Inside the ashram is only one store, which helps you concentrate on your Sadhana (spiritual efforts). Every day at 5.30 pm the Rudhram, Samastha Loka and Bhajans are sung at the Premamrutham hall. It is a very beautiful building and has a high energy inside. Darshan always took place on a Thursday and Sunday. I recommend you to watch the videos on YouTube (Sai Vrinda). This book contains the best photos of these three months. On November 24th I travelled to Kathmandu to get a new visa. From there I continued on to Rishikesh, since Swami (Madhu) stayed there for a few days and many devotees followed Him.I had a hard time seeing Sai Baba in Madhu. Baba then sent me a dream where He showed me, that it was truly Him who gives darshan inside the hall!Three times a week I went for meditation at Krishna's place. He is a devotee from the USA. He told us that Sai Baba stood inside the meditation room for ten minutes and told him how to arrange everything inside the room. Meditation in this room was really special and it was clear that Sai Baba was there and helped us to meditate. Kryshna explained to us, that Sai Baba erased our mind so that we could stay inside the heart while meditating. The Canadian author Catherine Kapahi also took part in the meditations. She published many books of Sai Baba's channeled messages. Sai Baba gave Catherine the message for this meditation. It's called: Sai + I are one. On Saturday there is also a study circle.We celebrated all the festivals in the ashram. First Dasserah, Akhanda Bhajan, Diwalli, Sai Babas birthday, Christmas and lots more. In January the sports festival took place. Also, journeys were organized to visit the Sai Baba campuses. I took part on three of them. Sai Baba invited me in a dream on January 8th to stay longer in the ashram. But I had rebooked this trip so many times that I didn't want to rebook it again. I travelled back to Canada on January 22nd. I will return on February 19th!I published another book with the photos of Kathmandu and Rishikesh. Otherwise this volume would have become too fat!I wish you lots of fun with this book!
