2/9

Many devotees now prefer to ring in the New Year at some Holy placeand or with their Guru. With this desire, around 3 lakh devotees

reached Shirdi to be in the company of their beloved Baba for NewYears Eve, for which the Sai Sansthan had kept Baba's Samadhi

Temple open the full night on 31st to enable the devotees to have

Darshan. So, this New Years Eve Sai Baba also did not sleep as lakhsof devotees had lined up for his Darshan. Bhajan Kirtan continued

through out the night and so there was no Shayan Aarti or the KakadAarti of Baba, on 01st Jan`2011. Many devotees came walking all the

way to Shirdi carrying Sai Palkis with them.

The atmosphere at the Shirdi Sai Temple was showering with devotion.In front of Lendi garden devotees lit thousands of candles,

while some were reading the Shri Sai Satcharitra wherever they couldfind a place to sit and do so. People were also singing Sai bhajans in

Hindi, Marathi, Kannada and Tamil.

As the Clock struck 12:00 at midnight, the Bells started ringing

in the Sai Temple.The devotees who were waiting in queues outside the temple

bowed their Heads and did Pranam to the Temple's Kalash(Dome) and started chanting Prayers to welcome the New-year

However, at this moment devotees could not have Sai Baba's Mukh

Darshan for a short periodbecause of the VIP crowd having Darshan inside.

The darshan queue was so big that the entire Pimpalwadi Road was fullof devotees and to manage which, the Trustee of the Sai Baba Temple

Shri.Jayant Sasane, the Executive Office Shri.Kishore More& the additional Executive Officer Dr.Yashwant Mane were monitoringthe darshan queue arrangement. But because the Temple was open

the whole night, the crowd was easily controlled. In one hour minimum10 thousand devotees were having Baba's Darshan, because of which

in the night almost 1 lakh devotees took Darshan.

In two days itself, at the Shirdi Sai Prasadalaya each day around40,000 devotees had their meals. Some devotees had given the FreePrasad Meal donation becuase of which the Meals were given to

everyone for free. One such devotee from Gujarat Shri.Aalap RajubhaiPatel donated Rs.11 lakh and 11 thousand for the free prasad meal

scheme for everyone to have free meals from 14th to 17th Jan`2011.
