2023 New Year’s Message and review of 2022
Dear embodiments of Divine Love:
Sai Ram. With Baba’s grace and guidance,
we have overcome many challenges in the past year. Let us all pray for his continued guidance in the new year.
Baba’s message for the upcoming year:
“All is one; be alike to everyone.
The world is one; be good to everyone.” – Sai Baba
The Temple could keep the doors open for darshan to all the visiting devotees. The pujas and festivals were all celebrated grandly. The new year 2022 started with the bhajans and the first Archana at 12 am to Baba. Maha Shiva Ratri was celebrated with Ekadasa Rudram and bhajans followed by Ugadi, Sri Rama Navami, Hanuman Jayanti, Guru Purnima, Varalakshmi Vratam, Raksha Bandhan, Ganesh Chaturthi, Mahalaya Paksha, Dasara, Deepavali, and Kartika Masa. Various devata Kalyanas were performed in the Temple throughout the year. Many pujas that are done regionally in India, were also performed in the Temple.
Annadana was rendered throughout the year at both the Kakinada and Puttaparthi Veda Patasalas. This year also we have teamed up with local organizations to distribute food where it is needed. In Mahalya paksha, to honor the ancestors and forefathers a special Annadana was rendered in Kasi, Gaya Kshetra, and Nepal Muktinath.
Go Sala: We were blessed with many calves that were born this past year, and our Go Santhathi in India has increased. In spite of difficulties, we were able to arrange and continue the maintenance of the cows with hay, green grass (grown in the Veda Pata Sala), feed, and necessary medicine to keep the cows healthy. We are very grateful to all the devotees that have contributed to Go Seva this past year.
As per the Temple’s Mission Statement “to ease pain and suffering,” the Temple has started to help an individual or organization in India every month. The Temple has helped several individuals this past year with medical treatments. We also supported an organization that provided free artificial limbs to those that need them. We look forward to continuing help to those in need in the coming years with your support.
Consider becoming a sustaining donor with a monthly contribution. (see page 3) or join as a Sai Family member.
Baba bless us all with his love, grace and guidance.
