Mr. Ravi Dabir is a long time devotee of Swami and the letter was
sent to be circulated. I have just returned from Japan after
attending a UN convention on "Water and Resources" and what I found
was something amazing which I want to share with you. The plenary
session of about 1800 delegates had in the podium men like the Prime
Minister of Japan, Dpty Prime Minister of China, Prime Ministers of
Malaysia, Singapore, Indonesia and Ministers from about 20 countries
presidents of world Bank, IMF and Mayors of at least 20 major cities
of the world and Mrs Annan, wife of the UN Secretary General--infact
a very high power body. The Session started with a 30 minute Dance
on the Theme of Water performed by the School children of Japan and
at the end of it I got my first surprise! It was announced that it
was by the Sathya Sai School children of Japan. At the end of the
three day session there was a well attended ballet on Global
Resources -again by the Sathya Sai school children of the Asian
Region!1800 delegates gave a standing ovation.
I had to deliver a keynote address on Swami's water project - again
an invitation from UN that I was surprised to receive at the last
minute - and this generated a lot of enthusiasm - The attending
press was so interested that they wanted me to answer questions on
an impromptu press conference where there was a lot of interest on
Swami's service projects. This even included an invitation from the
Deputy Prime Minister of China to come to china and talk about this.
During the conference I found several dignitaries from politicians
to Bankers - some of them wearing green rings obviously given by
Swami - and many others, who were obviously Swami's devotees.
All this goes to show how pervasive is the awareness of Swami all
over the world, in all opinion making bodies and how unobtrusively
He is placing His devotees in all world forums and how each one of
us have a role to play in creating this new world order based on
Truth, Non Violence, Peace, Right Conduct. In fact throughout this
seminar which was completely a non Sai function there were frequent
reference to these value systems.
I also had the opportunity to speak at several Sai Centres in Japan -
Obviously one of the hidden purposes of this sudden and surprising
visit of mine - I was impressed not only by the dedication but by
the Quality of Service work... particularly on Educare, prevailing
in this region.
I am not normally an email buff ,but this whole experience was so
humbling and a remarkable demonstration of the increasing
pervasiveness of Swami and the role each one of us will be called
upon to play towards this.
