Issue 167 - March 08, 2020 | | In 2016 one of the Satsangs held in the divine presence at México when a devotee asked how the people of Mexico can help in this Divine mission. Here is what Swami said: I continue to work for the sole purpose for which I have incarnated and will continue to do so forever. It is not about the building of educational institutions or health-care institutions; it is human transformation. The purpose of My incarnations is to help each and every person to realise their divinity, and I will not stop My work until each and every person on earth is transformed into their divine Self. How can you help Me? Become divine! Then, I have one less person to work on. If each one of you takes My word seriously and decides – not tomorrow or the day after, but today – 'Now and from here on, I will live my life completely in accordance with Swami´s wish of divine living. I will give up all that is selfish, all that is not divine in me, and will make every effort to live every moment just as Swami lives,' then you have already helped Me, by redeeming yourself. That is My main purpose. Now, if that can happen by you doing japa, so be it. If it can happen by feeding the poor, so be it. If it can happen by educating deprived children or people, so be it. If it can happen by providing healthcare, so be it. Whatever the path, the goal is that of your own transformation. As Tigrett said, there are as many paths as there are people; there are as many journeys as there are people. Therefore, choose your path and see to it that, whatever time you spend, you spend in a divine way. Ask yourself every moment, 'I am divine, I am God – that is what Swami says. Am I living according to that?' If not, make amends and bring yourself back to living a life of divinity. Constantly remind yourself of your divinity; every thought, word and deed must be divine. If you do that, and if each one of you here start doing this to yourself, My work will be achieved faster. Become like candles. All of you, light yourselves first and then spread the light to others around you. By being divine and helping others to become divine, you can truly help Me. | | Annapoorna Supports Additional 2500+ Children in Mahaboobnagar, Telangana | | About 2,571 children across 16 schools in Telangana district's Mahaboobnagar will now be receiving nutritious breakfast through the flagship Annapoorna Breakfast Programme.

| | Seva in the Middle East February 2020 | | Construction Site Seva Heat of the desert regions is well known and to work tirelessly on construction sites in extreme conditions is very difficult. To serve such people, the youth from the Middle East region visited two construction sites to offer love and joy. This service has been organised at three construction sites. At one site, 320 workers are served, while in the other site, around 65 workers are served. The Seva at the third site is carried out entirely by an enthusiastic youth team. | | Women are the real architects of society and to empower and serve such noble women who help in the cleanliness of schools, malls and offices, women volunteers visit a ladies camp and serve them with tokens of love each weekend. In the month of February, around 70-80 workers were served with cooking oil, oats, biscuits or dishwashing liquid every weekend. While serving, the necessities of the ladies and their health were also taken into account. To relax and strengthen their muscles from the hard work they undergo, the volunteers also got a physiotherapy session for the ladies where they were taught right postures and exercises that could relax and strengthen their muscles and bones. Meditation and breathing exercises were also conducted for a healthy mind. Computer classes for interested candidates are also being undertaken every week. | | One Meal A Day Program (OMAD) | | One sees the hunger and suffering in the world and wishes to do something to make a difference.

The "One Meal a Day" programme is a tool set up to discern from first-hand experience that every small effort collectively adds up to make a big difference. | | "Service to Man is Service to God" and serving each of the workers in nine camps in the desert is a live example of how each volunteer experiences a glint of divine bliss serving His men. 50 desert workers were served yet again and while serving, the youth do not just visit the workers and give them the grocery items; but the volunteers talk and interact with them so that the barren sands trumpet aloud the language of love. | | Seeking Swami through Music | | Music is the language of the soul and our young musician Sai Prabhav Kallepalli has become an expert in this métier through the strings of his guitar.

He also commented that He knew that I had put in a lot of effort into the performance and had made fine associations with the rest of the group, and that is what made Him happy the most. This really resonated with me, as I am an introvert and it takes me time to interact and talk to people. Today, I like being with Sai Hrudayam family, doing Seva with my friends but what I cherish most and look forward to is to play the guitar for Swami. I seek Him through Music. | | | | | | |
