Day6 – Evening

Devotional Commencement:

The evening program started with the sacred vibrations of Vedam chanting by the Sivam Mahila Youth, setting a spiritual tone for the gathering.

Lamp Lighting Ceremony:

Delegates graced the occasion by participating in a traditional lamp lighting ceremony, symbolizing the dispelling of darkness and the invocation of divine blessings.

Sri Sathya Sai Jeeva Dhara:

The Mahila Vibhag (Women's Wing) of Sri Sathya Sai Seva Organizations in Sivam, Hyderabad, has been actively engaged in conducting vocational training programs across several Samathis in Hyderabad, including teaching. These programs have had a positive impact on many trainees, empowering them with valuable skills. Some of the trainees have been fortunate enough to acquire sewing machines independently, which has enabled them to become self-employed.

However, there remains a significant number of women trainees who, due to their challenging financial backgrounds, are unable to afford the sewing machines required for self-employment, and thus, they continue to be employees. In recognition of this need, the Mahila Vibhag of Sri Sathya Sai Seva Organizations in Hyderabad earnestly prayed to Bhagawan Sri Sathya Sai Baba for assistance.

In response to their prayers, Bhagawan, through Sri So-and-so, has graciously blessed the Mahila Vibhag with 14 sewing machines. These sewing machines will be distributed to deserving women trainees across Hyderabad, offering them an opportunity for self-sufficiency and empowerment.

The Mahila Vibhag expresses its heartfelt gratitude to Bhagawan and seeks His continued blessings upon the participants of this program. They also pray that Swami inspires many devotees to come forward and contribute to this noble Seva throughout the year.

May Bhagawan's grace continue to uplift and empower those in need.

Skit Performance - Sivam Mahila Youth:

The SSSSO, Sivam Mahila youth presented a skit, utilizing the art of drama to convey valuable messages and teachings, adding a cultural and educational dimension to the evening.

Bhajan Medley:

Devotees were treated to a soulful Bhajan Medley, a musical offering that uplifted the spirits and created an atmosphere of joy and devotion.

Divine Discourse:

The gathering was blessed with a Divine Discourse, imparting spiritual wisdom and guidance to the audience, providing insights into the teachings of Sri Sathya Sai Baba.

Harathi and Prasadam Distribution:

The program concluded with the offering of Harathi, symbolizing reverence and devotion. The evening ended on a joyous note with the distribution of Prasadam, sharing the divine blessings with all participants.

Conclusion:

The 6th day's evening celebrations were a beautiful blend of spirituality, cultural expression, and service.
