Dear Practitioners

Such a blissful period it has been since our last newsletter. We celebrated so many auspicious occasions eg, Ugadi, Easter, Tamil New Year, Baisakhi, Akshaya Tritiya and Aradhana Mahotsavam. We also have the upcoming Easwaramma Day when we commemorate and immerse ourselves in the beautiful and sweet tales of our Dear Lord’s Mother Easwaramma. Swami said “Humanness is the main quality of a human being. Mother Easwaramma was fully endowed with humanness… There are many highly educated people in the world. But what good have they done for the world? You should work hard and make others happy. You will have fulfilment in life only when you make the society happy….Render all possible service to society. That alone will make Swami happy”…Sathya Sai Baba, Birthday Discourse, 1981.

I’m delighted to share with you that the registration of Sai Vibrionics Institute for Research and Training (SVIRT) with its head office in Puttaparthi (See In Addition section for inauguration details), has given a boost to our plans for a more formal platform for providing research and training in the field of wellness. With the formation of SVIRT, we are gearing up to take forward Swami’s mission of free healthcare for all in full force. We are blessed to have experienced the greatest phenomenon ever – living in the presence of the Creator, who has shown us the secret to leading a fulfilled life i.e. selfless service. At this important milestone in vibrionics, I urge each of you to take a relook at your pledge to support vibrionics in more ways than you currently do.

We need greater involvement of our practitioners in the activities of the Institute at all levels, including but not limited to admissions, training, creating awareness of Vibrionics, newsletter production, organising camps & clinics, and running of our head office. Email us at [email protected] if you can be of greater service to SVIRT and thus support Swami’s Mission. I implore you to come forward and get involved! The Governors of SVIRT are currently implementing the revised administrative structure and procedures. Consequent to the birth of SVIRT the erstwhile IASVP (International Association of Sai Vibrionics Practitioners) becomes redundant; more details of the transition to SVIRT will be communicated to all.

Based on my interaction with several practitioners, I have observed that many have experienced miracles in action during their practice. Such incidents or as we fondly call them Sai-incidents, bear a testament to Swami’s assurance that He is absolutely involved and pours His Grace on all practitioners. Not only are such blissful experiences encouraging but also a huge source of inspiration to expand our practice, to touch many more lives. God is doing for us what we cannot do for ourselves!. To share these Sai-incidents, there's no better medium than our newsletter. Hence I urge you to write to [email protected] and our team will be delighted to assist with editing the content to make it more impactful.

Over the past several years, Microsoft Corporation has been immensely generous in supporting our organisational technology stack for communication, website maintenance and updates, email, and virtual workshops and meetings. I am happy to announce that they have extended their sponsorship for Vibrionics until Feb 2024. We are very grateful for their continued support and it greatly eases the financial burden of running our organization.

I also take the opportunity to thank all those who are sending us their valuable feedback from time to time. As you will appreciate, the production and publication of each newsletter takes several hundred manhours. It is indeed gratifying when practitioners make a concerted effort to follow the guidelines given in the newsletters. Our UK Coordinator ⁰²⁸²² supported by the regional coordinators is leading the charge in using our newsletter as a powerful study aid. They have rolled out a new initiative – conducting a regular study circle where practitioners review and discuss one newsletter every fortnight. I had the opportunity to attend their last study circle and was impressed by how diligently they studied the material, taking turns in researching various topics for further guidance on a given subject. I urge all vibrionics groups globally to implement this approach for the enrichment and continued professional development of our practitioners.

Our hearty congratulations to Practitioner^{11231 India} from Kerala whose patient count has surpassed 100,000 patients. Together with his peers, this practitioner has been instrumental in the procurement and assembly of 108CC boxes. Here, I would like to make a special acknowledgement that Kerala has been in the forefront of vibrionics seva and had earned the accolade of being first in many areas!

Let us muse over this powerful message from our dear Lord. He says “What is society? Society is your own reflection. Therefore, do not distance yourself from society. Keep yourself always engaged in the service of society. Why has God given hands to you? They are not given to scribble something on paper. They should be fully engaged in the service of God. Work is worship. Duty is God. Do your duty.”…Sathya Sai Baba, Birthday Discourse, 1981.

In loving service to Sai
