Dear Practitioners,

As we have just celebrated the sacred festival of Ganesh Chaturthi, our hearts are filled with the joy of invoking Lord Ganesha, remover of obstacles and bestower of wisdom. This festival reminds us not only to seek external blessings but also to strive for the inner removal of pride, ego, and selfishness—the true obstacles on our spiritual path.

Swami has given us the surest way to accomplish this: “Service is the highest spiritual discipline. Prayer and meditation, knowledge of scriptures, mastery of yogic practices—all these are only of secondary help. To remove the evil of egoism, service is the most efficient instrument. Therefore, cultivate the spirit of service, and take delight in extending selfless service to others.” (Discourse on Ganesh Chaturthi, 10 Sept 1979, Prasanthi Nilayam)

For us in vibrionics, every patient seen and every remedy given is not just an act of healing—it is a sacred offering at His lotus feet!

While reviewing extra-ordinary experiences (EEs) and case histories for submissions for the Centenary offering, I have been deeply inspired by the extraordinary accounts of practitioners who prescribed outstanding treatments and achieved remarkable results. These experiences reaffirm the tremendous potential within our community to rise to higher levels of seva. I warmly encourage all VPs aspiring for promotion to SVP to email their applications without delay to [email protected]. The next training course is scheduled for Dec this year (see Announcements) and we look forward to welcoming many more into the advanced course. We also wish to expand our practitioner base, so I invite you to inspire suitable patients, friends, or family members to take up this blessed path of vibrionics seva.

In each edition of this newsletter, we profile the vibrionics journey of one or two practitioners. Some of you have suggested fresh approaches—such as profiling groups of recently trained AVPs/APs, focusing on country- or state-wise seva, or spotlighting those engaged in administration or teaching. If you have ideas on how this section can better inspire our community and highlight the breadth of seva, please write to [email protected].

It is also heartening to know that thousands of patients are being served through camps, especially in India. For those who wish to expand their seva through larger camps but feel hesitant to ask for support, please remember that SVIRT is here to assist with manpower, supplies, and logistics. Do not hesitate to write to [email protected] - together, we can reach out to many more who are in need of help.

There are also ongoing opportunities for seva in Puttaparthi. Vibrionics clinics are held regularly at SVIRT, as well as at the Ladies’ and Gents’ Sevadal buildings inside the Ashram. Practitioners visiting Parthi are warmly invited to offer their time in these sacred clinics. Please write to [email protected] with your travel plans and availability. It is our constant prayer that Swami blesses us with more and more chances to serve in His Divine Abode.

In November, we will be conducting an AVP workshop to train 12 new practitioners. Once they qualify, we shall need remote mentors to guide them 1 to 1 in their early journey. As vibrionics continues to expand, there is also a growing need for experienced practitioners willing to teach and mentor others. We lovingly invite all VPs and SVPs to come forward for this noble seva and write to [email protected]. Suitable training and help will be given. Mentoring is a golden opportunity to pass on our learning and experience to the next generation; many past mentors have shared that they themselves gained fresh insights through this process and learnt a lot! Truly, it is a blessed way to grow together as instruments of Swami’s mission.

Emerging from the joyous celebration of Ganesh Chaturthi, let us carry forward the divine inspiration it brings. May Lord Ganesha and our beloved Swami continue to remove inner obstacles, bless our seva, and guide us in every step toward love-filled service!

In loving service to Sai
