INSPIRING SAI SEVA IN TAIWAN
Here Heart2Heart gives you glimpses of the last 3 months of Sai Seva done from the two Sai centres in Taipei, the capital of Taiwan.. There are stirring pictures of ‘love in action’ and we are sure that you will be touched to see them. The first commemorated Swami’s 80th Birthday, when blood donation was arranged by the Seva team of the Sathya Sai Center in Tienmou. They collected 120 bags of blood.
Secondly, the young people from the Bal Vikas group visited a home for mentally and physically challenged children in Pali on 17th September 2005. They played with the children and sang songs for them. They gave out fruit and medicated milk. Just look at the pictures to see the joy given and received. Truly, there is no greater joy than sharing love with the less fortunate and special.
We have a short video showing the Bal Vikas children spending quality time with the mentally challenged. You can download it here. [3.5 MB]
Thirdly, on 12th October 2005, the Seva team of the Sathya Sai center in Tienmou visited a home for the elderly and distributed seven modern wheelchairs and a physiotherapy table. Two more wheelchairs were donated at a later date. They gave a lot of love and care to the elderly people! Needless to say, the senior citizens were deeply moved.
The Hsichih bhajan group organized a yagna (sacrifice) in a beautiful local Chinese temple on 10th October 2005 to invoke Swami's blessings on the region and pray for peace. The Sai Gayatri was chanted for two hours along with the offering of ghee and cooked rice in the sacrificial fire. This was followed by kumkum laksharchana (chanting 1 lakh times with the offering of vermillion) and bhajans. Over 70 people participated in this function.
We can never tire of learning about the spread of Swami’s Love around the world – love that can be seen on people’s faces, love that can be apprehended by the sacrifices that people make to serve others and love that is received back again. Swami reminds us that we are serving ourselves by serving others. It is only in this way that we can transform ourselves and the world around us and share in God’s love - in action. - Heart2Heart Team. |
