Om Sai Ram dear Sai brothers and sisters!

I am so glad! My mother and I had been blessed with Sai Baba Moon Darshan on 28th October at 9.30 p.m. Mother had seen a splendit young face of our beloved Sai Baba. She called me and I had seen the face of a young Baba too, however the moon was not fully rounded. A part of the Lord hair was missing.
Beloved Swami, thank you sincerely for this blessing!

Loving Sai Ram!

WE(PRASHANT and MANOJ VERMA) are fortunate and blessed to have darshan of SWAMI who is omnipresent all over the universe including MOON.We saw the face of BABA JI in moon on Thurseday, 30th Aug,2007 at night(after 9 pm) before KRISHAN JANMASHASTMI(4th Sept,2007,Tueseday) FIRST TIME. Since then till today(Friday,2nd nov.,2007) we are looking the face of swami in moon. We could not yet capture the image of Baba's face because of unavailability of good resolution camera.

With the grace of Swami, I was able to witness the Moon Darshan on October 29 morning around 7:15 am from my home in Lilburn, Georgia, USA. It took few minutes for me to focus to see the outline of clear sight of Swami's face. I was speechless with tears of joy rolling down and constantly my lips murmured 'Sai Ram'. About 45 minutes, I saw Swami's young face many times and once Shridi Baba standing pose and twice Swami's present look. Kodi pranams Bhagavan for the gracious Darshan.

on 23rd October evening at around 9.30 my brother Naren called from Bradford and excitedly told me to
look into the moon in the dark sky above……..

" Swami is in the moon " he exclaimed……….and so I did - how fortunate I felt as it was my
birthday the next day ie 24th Oct ……..I was like a child, couldn’t contain my excitement as to what I WAS witnessing ! !

I hurriedly called all our centre members to take dharshan and the we all exchanged our
dharshans at our next Bhajan session on Thursday as part of our Study Circle.

THE APPEARANCE OF BHAGAWAN'S BUST IMAGE ON MOON LAST NIGHT'S SKY: SAI RAM EVERYBODY!

"WHILE I AM HAPPY SHARE WITH YOU OF THE APPEARANCE OF BHAGWAN'S BUST IMAGE ON MOON LAST NIGHT'S SKY (VISAKHAPATNAM, INDIA), I'M  SURPRISED THAT NONE HAS POSTED A MESSAGE IN THIS REGARD TILL THIS  MORNING ON THIS GROUP.

THOSE OF YOU WHO HAVE VISITED THE PLANETARIUM IN PRASANTHI NILAYAM, MIGHT RECOLLECT THE SATELLITE IMAGE OF INDIA TAKEN BY THE AMERICAN  SATELLITE SOMETIME IN 1970s (I DON'T REMEMBER THE EXACT DATE)  CONTAINING BHAGAWAN, LAST NIGHT'S SPECTACLE WAS SIMILAR WITH THE  BUST IMAGE OF BHAGAWAN CLEARLY VISIBLE ON THE MOON. "

Sairam,
Since the last two days we in Saudia Arabia have been blessed to receive Bhagavan's Darshan on the Moon.
It is even more amazing that His image has been changing each day. Thus this magnificent Darshan has really been a dynamic one. Truly like His other miracles, this is only reminds us of yet another minor facet of His immense Vishva Roopam.
May He always keep each one us in the cool light of His Love.

Sai Ram Everyone!

It has been raining heavily and the sky was covered with dark clouds for so many nights here in Penang, Malaysia. I have been reading emails sent from all over the world about every one being able to see Swami in the moon and I have waited in vain, feeling a little disappointed over the past few days.

In fact, the sky was still heavy with clouds this evening (26/10/07). I went outside to the balcony at 8.30pm and started praying repeatedly "Om Sai Ram" for almost half an hour. Swami then showered His magnificent grace by clearing away the dark clouds and the moon became so bright (without a single cloud!) by 9.30pm.

My whole family had gathered to watch the moon by then and all of us could see His image very clearly. I sat outside with my youngest son for two hours and we were blessed with several images, one of which was young Sathya Sai.

This has been a truly wonderful magical night!

Love and regards,
Adeline

Dearest People around the world
At 7.30 Irish time in Skibberreen, Co. Cork Ireland my family and i saw swami on the moon.I saw him at three different stages of his life. Has a a very young swami, in his middle years and a clear vision of what his pysical form looks like at this precise time.It was and will be the most beautiful vsion we will ever get to see in this life-time. My son of twelve was the first to see it and he was dumb struck from shock. My other two children had their first sighting at about the same time at university in the city of Cork Ireland one and half hours away from me.
The vision of swami remained with us for many hours. I get up this morning and still feel great emotion from witnessing such a great event.
To all our brothers and sisters out there i wish that it will be possible for every single one of you to have this experience.
Jai Sai Ram

I/WE FEEL VERY MUCH OBLIGED THAT I/WE COULD ENJOY MOON-DARSHAN.

I suvarna GREAT DEVOTEE AND YOUR ADMIRER VERY MUSH ENJOYED THE OCCASION.

I,PRABHAKAR, ACTUALLY SAW--"3-THREE" IMAGES.
initally i saw your image,in the right corner, of your "youth" with little hair. it took lot of efforts to clean this image before i could see your other 2 images. I feel perplexed how nobody has seen 3 images. AND then i saw other two images as described by others.

We too had Swami's Viswaroopa darsanam in the Moon in Cleveland, Ohio, USA. It was a very cloudy day and the clouds continued through the evening too. At about 9PM, my friend called and we all saw Swami's face profile. Through the clouds we were not too sure if our eyes and mind were playing games. But then at about 9.30PM the clouds cleared and very clearly we saw Swami in the moon. We also noticed a small form of Swami in full length towards the right side of the moon.

Details of Previous happenings below.

4 October, 2007 – The Vishwa Rupa Darshan Day

Swami came out for darshan at 5:05 pm in the evening of October 4. The bhajans had begun and Swami went straight into the bhajan hall at the end of His darshan rounds. Swami sat for the bhajans till about 5:35 pm. He appeared to be very radiant, yet had an emotional air about Him. Every bhajan seemed to touch Him and as He sat, He kept looking all around. It was as if He wanted His gaze to fall on everyone present in the hall. As the bhajans were going on, Swami called the secretary of the Central Trust, Sri Chakravarthi, and spoke to him. The bhajan group dimmed the volume of singing and accompaniment as the conversation turned out to be a long drawn one. The conversation lasted for one whole bhajan. Then Swami smiled and continued looking at everyone. At 5:35 pm, Swami went into the interview room. He came out at about 6:00 pm and immediately asked for Aarthi. However, during the Aarthi, Swami came into the bhajan hall. He sat till the final Loka Samastha was sung. Then, calling Prof. Anil Kumar, He had the following announcement made.

"Today is a very auspicious day. From this moment on till 7:00pm, in the direction of the airport, one can have the Vishwa Viraata Swaroopa Darshan. It can be seen by people - irrespective of their nationality, colour, caste."

A wide array of emotions passed over people's faces as they heard the announcement. Swami seemed to be the only non-confused soul in the whole assembly. A rare wave of chatter and excited talk broke out in the bhajan hall and Swami left with a satisfied and loving look. The whole of Parthi and the neighbouring villages too seemed to get galvanised. All roads seemed to be leading towards the airport. The auto rickshaw stand emptied in no time and taxis were all full. All vehicles - motor and non-motor- headed towards the airport and well, only one who was at the scene knows the euphoric impact it had on all. Parthi must never have seen such a motorcade in its brief yet vibrant history.

To add to this, at about 6:30 pm, Swami's Porte too headed towards the airport. The ashram wore a deserted look as all its inhabitants moved towards the airport. The main road was clogged with vehicles and it resembled a one way. No vehicle seemed to be headed towards Parthi and all faced the South-Westerly direction towards the airport. Parking space was a problem, but the devotees went in the vehicles as far as they could. Then jettisoning the vehicles, they proceeded on foot to the precincts of the airport. Swami's car was parked in the centre of the runway just opposite the terminal building.

Swami's car was naturally the focus of people's attention and the locus of the mammoth crowd. In a matter of 20 minutes, more than 10,000 people had assembled in the airport. It was completely dark and the only lights were from the tail lamps and head lights of Swami's Porte. Of course there were occasional flashes from cameras and the small screen lights of mobile phones. Chants of Sai Gayathri rented the air almost everywhere. Near the car, it gave way to frenzied shouts of "Bolo Bhagawan Sri Sathya Sai Baba Ki... Jai." Swami sat in the car just staring ahead. He seemed to be waiting for something. People were in a devotional fervour and if the runway could be replaced by a river, the scene would have reflected the Maha Kumbh Mela.

All of a sudden, Swami's car that was dark, lit up as the interior lights were switched on. There was a mighty applause and everyone’s faces too seem to be lit up by virtue of the light being put on in the car. The crowd was now on its feet and the security cordon around Swami's car was now almost non-existent. People were so charged and they wanted to catch just a glimpse of their beloved Lord. There were discussions of requesting Swami to return to the Mandir as the crowd was becoming uncontrollable. But then Swami did something that was so natural of Him. He asked for the door to be opened and He seemed to be too keen to get out of the car and be amidst His devotees. The door opened and the chair started to move.

But then there was a sudden onrush of devotees. In the darkness of the early night, the whole scene appeared like the " Kanyakumari-pearl necklace" episode - only that it was now waves of devotees trying to offer their garland of Love, Devotion and Gratitude. The crowds were literally surging and people near the car requested Swami to return into the car. There were repeated pleas to the devotees to be calm and seated but they seemed to hear none of it. A kind of mob mentality set in and indiscipline was in display too. Swami still wanted to get out of the car and be in the midst of devotees. But the raging waves of devotees seemed to make that move physically impossible. They were almost squeezed flat on the sides of the car and it was physically impossible for Swami even to come out. For once it seemed that God was proposing which man was disposing!

Uncontrollable joy at a mere glimpse....

The car now started and waded its way amidst the crowd and parked in another spot. Somehow, Swami wanted to be on the tarmac in the airport and it was purely His will that the car was still there. Such a scene had never been seen and even today it was not being seen (!), for along with the devotees, darkness enveloped the whole airport runway. The chants grew louder and now people did not know what was happening.

Swami was the only calm figure in the entire assembly. He got the car parked at a little distance away from the runway and then the same story was enacted. Swami wanted to come out of the car but it was physically impossible with the crowds swarming around the car.  Meanwhile, the whole of Prashanti Nilayam was literally empty. It was reminiscent of how the gopikas would rush to Krishna, leaving their houses unlocked, forgetting whatever they were doing. Swami for the third time got the car parked at another spot. Again the same story – He was not able to come out.

From a distance, even in the darkness, the scene was awe inspiring, to say the least. There were at least 12,000 people and the vast assembly brought to the mind images of the vedic chant "Sahasra Shirsha Purusha". In a way, though Swami was not being "allowed" to do what He wanted to by the crowds - the crowds themselves seemed to symbolise the cosmic form. Often Swami says that when it is said that the Lord has a thousand eyes and ears, He is not a funny looking being.

It is symbolic of Him pervading every being in the Universe. From a distance, this aspect became very clear. Moreover, the media picked up on some wild rumours which had no substantiation. The beauty of Swami's actions is that everyone benefits out of it. Whatever be anybody's motive, His motive is only the welfare and happiness around. He has not caused pain to one little thing in His whole life and led every moment of it for others. He does not care for the "taints" and "extolling" that the world may shower on Him. The Truth needs no verification nor does it change, whether a majority accepts it or rejects it.

The massive nightly congregation in the airport...		...seemed to resemble a Vishwaroopa in itself

At about 7:45 pm, Swami's car started to head out of the airport. But the roads were all blocked. Even Swami needed half an hour to travel the 8 kilometres to the Mandir. He reached Yajur mandir only at 8:30 pm and retired only by 10:00 pm.

Whoever may say anything, in matters of spirituality, it is only the experience of the heart that counts. And it is faith alone that leads to the experience.

Once man told God, "Why don't you reveal yourself to the world? Everyone can benefit."

God replied, "I would love to do so. But tell me how should I do that?"

Man: "Why don't you do a miracle? A miracle that will stun everyone?"

God: "What sort of miracle do you suggest that I do?"

Man: "Hmm....well let me see. Why don't you turn the whole ocean red?"

God: "My dear! That will not work."

Man: "Why do you say that?"

God: "Because sometime back, someone asked me to make it blue. But today, you have scientific explanations for its blue colour!"
God then went on to tell him, "If you don't have faith, every experience seems co- incidental. But with faith, every breath, every heartbeat, every moment becomes a divine experience."

The feelings in everyone who witnessed the divine drama were profound and sublime. The experience, well, can be put off as coincidental and "nothing much", or it can be considered the fruition of the wait of lifetimes. Swami is Truth and Love.

Om Sairam dearest Sai Family
There was lot of suspense, drama and lot of commotion in Puttaparthi this Thursday evening. To give a brief account of what had happened and to remove all the contradicting views in various TV channels, all started around 5:25 when Prof.Anil Kumar announced, with consent of Swami, that there would Viswa Virat Swaroop darshan this evening around 6pm to 7pm.. Apparently, to what I understood, Swami would be seen in the sky (in the moon) in between this time, in His cosmic form…
Recently I have seen a video of experiences of some old time devotees where in Swami has showed His form on the banks of Chitravathi river, in the sky. Today it was announced that the rare darshan would be seen in the airport area.. The news spread in no time to the whole puttaparthi and in no time, thanks to the mobile revolution in India, the news spread to all corners of the world. Every one had a different name for the very very special darshan.. At one stage, the phone lines were very very hard to get through, as all the phones were busy discussing this issue..

It all started with a small gathering near the airport around 5:45 and slowly the crowd increased..The crowd were anxious, and many patients who came for treatment in the super hospital also joined the crowd and to intensify the anxiousness, Swami Himself drove to the airport.. Then started the real show.. Atleast 100 vehicles followed Swami and the crowd were in thousands, and only a bunch of police men to control.

Usually for large gatherings, there are special police teams brought to Parthi, but this being a very very rare occasion and a sudden one. Before Swami could come to the airport, thousands were already gathered in the airport. The people from my village (which is just on the other side of the airport) and surrounding villages, got into the airport by crossing over the fencing…All were standing in the run way before Swami’s arrival.. As the main gates were opened to let Swami’s car in, there was a huge gush of devotees. The police had no idea as what to do and they almost gave up.. It was getting dark by then and Swami slowly got down from His car and hardly stayed out for some minutes. .Seeing the devotees’ anxiety Swami had to get into His car again and no one had any idea as what was happening and where and how Swami would be seen in the sky…

Swami had to stay in His car for more close to one hour, thanks to the anxious devotees. It was 6:45pm by then, a very rare occasion for Swami to stay in the airport premises, overcrowded by devotees during this part of the day…. The crowd which was around 10,000 or so now doubled, thus making the situation more tense and worse…All the devotees surrounded around His car, chanting Sai Gayatri, some where singing bhajans, some chanting mantras looking at the sky and looking at Swami..Some (chatter box) devotees started saying, Swami will be seen in the east direction, some said no in the west.. another fellow said, Swami will be seen like in a Imax theater, in the sky.. one devotee went a little further and said, Swami will now give discourse from the car and the whole thing will be reflected on the sky…There were all kind of speculations and some were weird enough to be brushed aside… There was no one to announce as what was going on or what is going to happen next.


By now all the roads were blocked. Cars, motor cycles and vans were parked right in the middle of the road. Now the big question was how will Swami’s car go out.. Another 2 cars were brought..The police tried to give an impression that Swami was in a particular car and divert the attention of the crowd to let Swami go to ashram peacefully.. Even that plan didn’t work out..



After waiting for an hour, around 7:40 Swami’s car slowly turned turned towards the ashram and it took close to 2 hours for Swami to reach Puttaparthi thus pulling the curtains down for a very interesting and action packed evening…..and crowd who had come from distant places, returned back after a tension packed 2 hours… But all were in smiles for a beautiful car darshan…

Probably Swami postponed His yet another Leela to some other fine evening……We all are waiting for that evening Swami…

October 4th, 2007

This evening, Swami came out for darshan at 5:05 pm. The bhajans had begun and Swami went straight into the bhajan hall at the end of His darshan rounds. Swami sat for the bhajans till about 5:35 pm. He appeared to be very radiant, yet had an emotional air about Him. Every bhajan seemed to touch Him and as HE sat, He kept looking all around. It was as if He wanted His gaze to fall on everyone present in the hall. As the bhajans were going on, Swami called the secretary of the Central Trust, Sri.Chakravarthi, and spoke to him. The bhajan group dimmed the volume of singing and accompaniment as the conversation turned out to be a long drawn one. The conversation lasted for one whole bhajan. Then Swami smiled and continued looking at everyone. At 5:35pm, Swami went into the interview room. He came out at about 6:00pm and immediately asked for Aarthi. However, during the Aarthi, Swami came into the bhajan hall. He sat till the Loka Samastha was sung. Then, calling Prof.Anil Kumar, He had the following announcement made.

"Today is a very auspicious day. From this moment on till 7:00pm, in the direction of the airport, one can have the Vishwa Viraata Swaroopa Darshan. It can be seen by people - irrespective of their nationality,colour,caste."

A wide array of emotions passed over people's faces as they heard the announcement. Swami seemed to be the only non-confused soul in the whole assembly. A rare wave of chatter and excited talk broke out in the bhajan hall and Swami just left with a satisfied and loving look. The whole of Parthi and the neighbouring villages too seemed to get galvanised. All roads seemed to be leading towards the airport. The auto rikshaw stand emptied in no time and taxis were all full. All vehicles - motor and non motor- headed towards the airport and well, the scene must have been seen to feel the impact. Parthi must never have seen such a motorcade in its brief yet vibrant history.

To add to this, at about 6:30 pm, Swami's Porte too headed towards the airport. Parthi wore a deserted look as all its inhabitants moved towards the airport. The main road was clogged with vehicles and it resembled a one way. No vehicle seemed to be headed towards Parthi and all faced the South-Westerly direction towards the airport. Parking space was a problem, but the devotees went in the vehicles as far as they could carry them. Then jettisoning the vehicles, they proceeded on foot to the hallowed precincts of the airport. Swami's car was parked in the centre of the runway just opposite the terminal building.

Swami's car was naturally the focus of people's attention and the locus of the mammoth crowd. In a matter of 20 minutes, more than 10,000 people had assembled in the airport. It was completely dark and the only lights were from the tail lamps and head lights of Swami's Porte. Of course there were occasional flashes from cameras and the small screen lights of mobile phones. Chants of Sai Gayathri rented the air almost everywhere. Near the car, it gave way to frenzied shouts of "Bolo Bhagawan Sri Sathya Sai BabaKi... Jai ". Swami sat in the car just staring ahead. He seemed to be waiting for something. The people were in a devotional fervour and if the runway could be relpaced by a river, the scene would have reflected the Maha Kumbh Mela.

All of a sudden, Swami's car that was dark, lit up as the interior lights were switched on. There was a mighty applause and peoples faces too seem to be lit up by virtue of the light being put on in the car. The crowd was now on its feet and the security cordon around Swami's car was now almost non existent. People were so charged and they wanted to just glimpse at their beloved Lord. There were discussions of requesting Swami to return to the mandir as the crowd was becoming uncontrollable. But then Swami did something that was so natural of Him. He asked for the door be opened and He wanted to go out and be amidst His devotees. The door opened and the chair started to move. But then there was a sudden onrush of devotees. In the darkness of the early night, the whole scene appeared like the "Kanyakumari- pearlnecklace" episode - only that it was now waves of devotees trying to offer the garland of Love, Devotion and Gratitude. The crowds were literally surging and people near the car requested Swami to go back into the car. There were repeated pleas to the devotees to be calm and seated but they seemed to hear none of it. A kind of mob mentality set in and indiscipline seemed to set in. Swami was still wanting to get out of the car and be in their midst. But the raging waves of devotees seemed to make that move physically impossible. They were almost squeezed flat on the sides of the car and it was physically impossible for Swami even to come out. For once it seemed that God was proposing which man was disposing!

The car now started up and waded its way amidst the crowd and parked in another spot. Somehow, swami wanted to be on the tarmac in the airport and it was purely His will that the car was still there. Such a scene would never have been seen and even today it was not being seen for along with the devotees, even darkness enveloped the whole airport runway. The chants grew louder and now people did not know what was happening. Swami was the only calm figure in the entire assembly. He got the car parked at a little distance away from the runway and then the same story was enacted. Swami wanted to come out of the car but it was physically impossible with the crowds swarming around the car. Meanwhile, the whole of Prashanti Nilayam was literally empty. It was reminiscent of how the gopikas would rush to Krishna, leaving their houses unlocked, forgetting whatever they were doing. Swami for the third time got the car parked at another spot. Again the same story - not able to come out.

From a distance, even in the darkness, the scene was awe inspiring to say the least. The vast assembly brought to the mind images of the vedic chant "Sahasra Shirsha Purusha". In a way, though Swami was not being "allowed" to do what He wanted to by the crowds, the crowds themselves seemed to symbolise the cosmic form. Often Swami says that when it is said that the Lord has a thousand eyes and ears, He is not a funny looking being. It is symbolic of Him pervading every being in the Universe. From a distance, this aspect became very clear. Moreover, the spice hungry media picked up on the heavy rumours which were actually non-existent. Many channels rivalled each other and revelled in trying to cook up the hottest gossip and gain mileage out of the spiritual phenomenon. The beauty of Swami's actions is that everyone benefits out of it. Whatever be anybody's motive, His motive is only the welfare and happiness around. He has not caused pain to one little thing in His whole life and led every moment of it for others. He does not care for the "taints" and "extolling" that the world may shower on Him. The Truth needs no verification nor does it change just because a majority refuse to accept it.

At about 7:45 pm, Swami's car started to head out of the airport. But the roads were all blocked. Even Swami needed half an hour to travel the 8 kilometres to the mandir. He reached into Yajur mandir only at 8:30 pm and retired only by 10:00 pm.

Whoever may say anything, in matters of spirituality, it is only the experience of the heart that counts. And it is FAITH alone that leads to the experience. Once man told God,"Why don't you reveal yourself to the world? Everyone can benefit."
God replied,"I would love to do so. But tell me how should I do that?"
"Why don't you do a miracle? A miracle that will stun everyone?"
"What sort of miracle do you suggest that I do?"
"Hmm....well let me see. Why don't you turn the whole ocean red?"
"My dear! That will not work."
"Why do you say that?"
"Because sometime back, someone asked me to make it blue. But today, you have scientific explanations for its blue colour!"
God then went on to tell him,"If you don't have faith, every experience seems co incidental. But with faith, every breath, every heartbeat, every moment becomes an experience."

The feelings in everyone who witnessed the divine drama were profound yet sublime. The experience, well, can be put off as co incidental and "nothing much" or it can be considered the fruition of the wait of lifetimes. Swami is Truth and Love.
