Ram Navami Celebration in Perth

Ram Navami is an auspicious occasion and this day is celebrated as a birthday of the Shree RamChandra who was born on the ninth day of the month of Chaitra to King Dashratha and mother Kaushalya. It's specially regarded as 'Ram Navami' because it's the ninth day of the Shukla Paksha of the month of Chaitra, as per the Hindu calendar and also close to the beginning of New Year. This day is celebrated in Shri Hari Guru Gram with such an ardent fervor by all the shraddhavans/devotees of the entire Bapu Parivar and we celebrated it with the same energy and enthusiasm in Perth. We started this day by gathering together at the centre (around 11:00 am) with light refreshments accompanied by listening to the gajar CD. The Ram Janama was done by singing the 'Palana' song and moving the cradle at 12:00pm and everyone indeed experiencing immense joy and happiness. We then followed the same sequence as per the blog until evening. The following people participated in this event including both of us.

(Jigalveera, Vipulsinh) (Jyotiveera , Sureshsinh) (Sachinsinh, Belaveera) (Abhaysinh, Leenaveera)

The junior group included following people

(Riya, Sara, Tirtha, Aum, Charvi and Parth)

Bapu's unconditional love and grace has indeed inspired all the shraddhavans in Perth in making this Saturday Upasna done

on a regular basis every Saturday (7:00pm). Bapu has won the hearts of so many people and influenced them in proper

direction and I was fortunate to be one of them. When I came here in Perth in May 2004, I was disappointed to not find any Bapu

followers here and also missed my Bapu and his discoureses (which happened every Thursday). The moment when Bapu put his

hands up to bless all his children after the Saibaba's Aarti was over (every Thursday) was the most happiest moment of my

life. I could feel the nectar of his loving and kind glimpse on all his children and I was just living in that moment. I

had taken all the photos and books along with me and also felt his presence in my he heart but something was still missing.

When I travelled back to India I gave my contact details to some of the Shraddhavans in-charge of helping devotees who

stayed far away and came in contact with Ashishsinh Rane from Sydney. He used to co-ordinate for all the daily

activities/happenings about 'Aniruddha Upasna Trust'. We continued doing Upasna regularly and also telling people about the

Bapu and activities/projects/goals of 'Aniruddha Upasna Trust'. We were fortunate enough to talk with Poojya Samir Dada and

he gave a good guidance on what exactly we need to be doing to help others to experience this. Our happiness knew no bounds. My firm belief is that you will definitely get rewarded by

your Sadguru if your Bhakti/Devotion towards your Sadguru is pure and true. Let us all cherish this nectar which is sweet

indeed due to the divine presence of P.P. Bapu, our beloved Nandai and loving Suchit Dada in our lives!!!!
