SWAMI LEAVES FOR CHENNAI

Om Sairam dear Sai Family,
Swami left Prasanthi Nilayam at 12:25pm for Chennai. The
roads of Prasanthi Nilayam were packed with devotees, local and overseas, to
have a glimpse of our beloved Lord before He leaves for Chennai for the 2nd
Ati Rudra Maha Yajna in less than a year time.
The flight which was supposed to take Swami landed in Prasanthi Airport
around 11:30 and there were people all over.
Swami traveled in His usual TOYOTA PORTE car to the airport. The car went
very slowly, took about 40 minutes to reach airport which is approximately
ten minutes drive. One would imagine how slow the car was and it was a TREAT
to watch Swami. Once, twice were not enough. Swami was all smiling .. the
devotees who saw Swami, ran to the opposite side and went a little beyond
the car and cross the road again to swami's side. Many including me were
doing this and Swami was equallly enjoying the play... It was just wonderful
to see Swami.
As usual Sai Geetha was ready to greet Swami and she was uncontrollable when
Swami's car got close to her.. the students of Easwaramma High School stood
in a line and were seen chanting Sai Gayatri. Swami blessed them raising His
hand and next to them were senior boys, Swami gave a beautiful smile to them
as well. Swami was keenly watching the new indoor stadium as brother
Sathyajit, who was driving swami's car pointed to some thing...
Swami was seen saying something to some people and the crowd was
uncontrollable the moment Swami got close to them, there were was a big
scream of joy and the very next moment they run more further and be ready
for the car to pass by. Many were about to fall and Swami was looking at
them and many times, had facial expression, just as we have when we say
OOPS!!
As the car came to the bypass road (airport road) the crowd was double in
number.. I thought, there wouldn't be any one beyond Late Janaki Ramayya's
Samadhi but to my surprise, there were hundreds of devotees...
HAPPY JOURNEY TO SWAMI was written with sand on the road on the airport
road.
As the car was approaching the airport the numbers doubled and also seen
were few local school kids....
Swami's car directly drove in the airport and near the
flight.. A navy blue flight form PARAMOUNT AIRWAYS was ready to take Swami
and His handpicked beloved ones...after about 15 minutes or so... Swami's
plane flew to Chennai... which will be the centre of attraction for the next
2 weeks...
With a prayer, to Swami, to let us all enjoy the fruits of the Yajna and
with a humble prayer to Swami to bless us all to be His darling
children.....
GOD LUCK CHENNAI
