Revered Sir,
What can I say about the "sai darbar" except that it
is verily my SAI's gift to me. I've grown so much closer to Him these two
years, ever since I was introduced to the "sai darbar". May its
services bring more & more people to my SAI's fold.
Yours in Rangasai
Renuka

Respected Srinivasa Rao Kasturi
ji
Sai Ram, Aum Sri Ram Jai Ram Jai Jai Ram, Aum Shri Ganeshaye
Namah,
Thanks a lot for the blessings. We are all humble devotees of
Lord Sai Nath, we pray that he gives us all Sharan under the dust of his lotus
feet & blesses us with his grace. ..
One needs to be blessed by BABA'S grace for being even able to
recite his name not to talk about being able to do the work that Saibanisaji
& members of Sai darbar are doing. Leaving a high government post
&trying to live only to spread SaiBaba name & philosophy is not
possible for ordinary souls ; one must to be THE CHOSEN ONE. Saibanisaji has
dedicated his time & life -to spread SAI philosophy & lead people like
us on the difficult path of life by constantly guiding & advising. His
mission is to increase our love & devotion for Baba by his discourses on
Baba's teachings and by talking about his own experiences that lead him to lead
the life as the chosen one. We all dream of doing what Saibanisa ji is doing
but how far could we go if it was not for his guidance & acting as a bacon
light?
Various meetings with Saibanisaji and other members of saidarbar
has simply opened the doors to a new phase of life for us. At the time, when we
met Saibanisa & Ma Madhuji (as we call her) we were just mesmerized by
hearing them both talks about BABA & the work both of them & other
devotees did. WE all should follow Saibanisaji & strive to do SAI'S work
& lead the life as per the way shown in SAISAT CHIRTA.
Our request to other members of SAI DARBAR is that we need to
come closer to each other, share our thought & experiences, we need more
contact, its possible to many things only when we all work together as a group,
please feel free to contact us at---3 Tamarack dr. New Milford, CT-06776. USA.
860-350-4658. We look forward to
hearing from devotees, so that they join can join us for the SAT SANG every
month.

Sairam
Ravada Uncle,
May Lord Sri Sai bless you and Your Family.
How can we express our gratitude in words for everything you are doing for us.
You are bringing so many devotees close to Lord Sai with your selfless devoted
service.. You are teaching and guiding us with so many facts and philosophical
ideas that one should learn and know from Lord Sai's life.
I am not flattering you but it is a fact that I feel as if I got blessings from
one of the elders of our family whenever I talk or receive email from you. I
thank you from the bottom of my heart for everything and accept that it's a
great blessing to know you and have you in our lives as our dearest uncle.
With Love, Navitha Beti.

Om Sai Ram Shirdi SAI BABA Lord Sainath is Ultimate
Dear Srinivasarao kasturi Ji
A. First of all we really appreciate as SAIDARBAR Orlando is
really happy to receive such aWonderful email. Regarding
views/comments/suggestions on SAI DARBAR ACTIVITIES.
1. Saidarbar activities had taken part in Chicago Utsav-November
2000 and we could attend an ALL INDIA SAI conference in June 2002 at Chennai,
India-since we SAIDARBAR Orlando was part of it
From the above we could find that it is not in Western country,
but spread across our own mother land in chennai, India. All these SAI
Activities would not take place withoutBABAS GRACE....Sai Darbar really takes
extra-ordinary interest in SAIActivities either in form of internet-through
email orPersonal movements or in the form of discussion Forum-it is almost in
every mode of communication.
That is a great accomplishment where it could see the Growth
without non-stop from Saibanisaji -messenger from Lord Sainath.
2. WE would not have come across great devotees in Colorado or
any other SAIDARBAR Forums without HIS HELP and SAIBANISAJIs help.
3. WE really appreciate, express our gratitude and Thanks during
the fifth Anniversary of saidarbar that
All the activities started at our end in Orlando and Adjoining
areas were originally originated or the
Contribution started from the SAIDARBAR-in Hydearbad/Saibanisaji....
4. Our forum shirdibabasaisharan yahoo group was alsooff-shoot
of our BABAs activities which was inspired Initially, suggested and guided by
Saibanisaji and Saidarbar organization has build upto 78 members now Spread
across...
5. WE are still working to build a good website where It should
get connected to Shirdi SAI SAMSTHAN with The blessings of Lord SAINATH and
SaidarbarOrganizations. Thanks again and personally would like to thank Saibanisaji
since he treated our whole familyIncluding my parents and kid as his own family
and heTook out of the way to consider us as his own family. That shows a great
and good nature of elite soul. Again, Thanks for giving an opportunity to write
on The Fifth Anniversary of Saidarbar Organizations
Spread across the globe.

Sai Ram Sai Sevak,
I am wondering how five years rolled in life so quickly. Sai sevak, The moments of developing the
first web page at your Institute still fresh in memory. Memories are so fresh
that I feel it happened yesterday. Fortunately I came to India for a visit. I
will be in India until Dec'25th 2002. I will be leaving on Dec'26th 2002. I
will be contacting the Sai Banisa at the earliest.
I know I have time limitation but please let me know what
possible way I can participate in spreading the Sai Philosophy. I believe SAI
DARBAR will do a great work in spreading SAI Philosophy to new levels.
I am confident that is a possibility, with great SAI Services
rendered by people like you under the guidance of SAI Banisa.
SAI RAM

Sai Ram Brother Kasturi:
. I have only praises for Saidarbar. About "Saibanisa"
what can I say, He is full of love and affection. The charity work what
Saidarbar is doing is unbelievable. I have not done anything, whatever I give
is given by my BABA. I came to this world with nothing and going to go back
with nothing. I can't see poor people suffering. I request every individual to
save some money and send it to those needy people who will bless you from
bottom of their heart. We spend so much money for unwanted thing in this world,
why not spend for a good cause where one benefits. I will always support
Saidarbar and plead Baba to keep me going in this manner so that I can help for
a good cause.
.
Once again thanks for asking my opinion. I am after all a small
insect in this big ocean. Good luck and take care. Wishing you a very happy 5th
anniversary.
Regards and ever in Sai Padha Seva
Raji Gopi Ranjit and Ritesh

Dear: SaiSevak
SrinivasaRao Kasturi for Saidarbar:
Oh! What can I say? What a wonderful services that is being
provided. In the
Service of Sai Baba such as the one you gentlemen are providing
can there
Be any opinions? Who am I, a very lowly creature to even comment
on this?
I mean this from my heart as well as literally (you will see why
I say
Literally later in my note).
As for the service that is being provided, how can it be any
thing less?
Than great, since it is Sai that is directing this?
As for my other opinions, on the web site if you can include
more and more
Sai experiences of people that would be a wonderful reading.
Dear SrinivasaRao Kasture, let me state an experience that I had
as soon as
I saw your note this morning and read the subject and even
before I started
To read any of the contents. As soon as I saw the note my lowly
mind
Instantly thought, " is this a note for a fund
raising/donation ". Dear
Swami, I have to tell the truth to you and Saibanisaji exactly
as my mind
Thought for that split moment. In front of Baba how can I not
speak the
Truth. It was Sai Baba correcting my lowly mentality and is
improving me. I
Bow down at HIS feet.
Also, for even instantly feeling this way I am submitting and
falling at
Your feet and at the feet of Saibanisaji and asking for
forgiveness. If you
Would only forgive me I would be comforted. From my heart, I am
submitting
At both (you and Saibanisaji) of your feet Swami.
As for publishing my letter in saidarbar News, I would only
request that
You please include this experience. It would be wonderful if you
can
Include my experience as is without any changes. I want people
to read and
forgiven not only from you and Saibanisaji but also from all Sai
devotees.
Dear Swami, so kind of you to have written to me. Please pass on
my best
Regards to Saibanisaji, GopalaRao Ravada.

Sairam. Namaste..
In fact we are grateful to your team for your efforts in serving
the needy.What we are offering is nothing compared to your efforts. We too are
trying to do something like that here and we find it very difficult to do
anything at all. I am not that capable of writing anything for your magazine.
We are justBeginning to become devotees and we are not yet devotees.
