A photographic exhibition titled ‘Premajyothi’ – portraying the divine love of Bhagwan Sri Sathya Baba through value-based education, health care and varied service projects is on at the Palace Grounds.

The exhibition, which was opened last year by Sri Sathya Sai Baba himself and has already travelled across the various parts of the country, is divided into seven segments, namely:

1. The effulgence of Pure love
2. Radiance of Divine Compassion
3. Pure Love as Selfless Concern
4. Love Shining as the Sadguru
5. The Matchless Glory of Pure Love
6. Love setting examples through Selfless Service
7. Pure Love is the Ultimate Protection

It opens with the birth of Sri Sathya Sai Baba, and goes on to show his contribution towards the society.

When asked why the organisers thought of bringing the exhibition to Bangalore now and not earlier, Nagesh G. Dhakappa of the Sri Sathya Sai Seva Organisation said: “We wanted a big venue but could not find one last year. This time,we got the Palace Grounds, which we thought is the ideal venue for this exhibition.” Venue wasn’t the only problem, as we were told that the idea was to invite the Chief Minister for the inauguration here. “The CM is busy with some meetings, so couldn’t come,” said another member of the organisation. The exhibition was formally opened in the city recently by K H Muniyappa, Minister of State for Surface Transport.

These were also some of management problems, which did nothing to hamper those who follow and love the Baba unconditionally. The photographs (both black & white and coloured), showing Sri Sathya Sai Baba’s selfess service and divine compassion, are surely a treat for his fans. The idea, we were reminded, is convey to the visitors about the life, message and mission of Sri Sathya Sai Baba.The exhibition is on till September 21.

BANGALORE: A simple class trip to Premajyoti – a photo exhibition hosted jointly by Sri Sathya Sai Seva organizations – has changed the perspectives of students and politicians as well.

“I didn’t know so many people don’t get drinking water! Where is Anantapur?” asked Chetana of New Baldwin School during the trip on Friday to Palace Grounds, the exhibition venue. She said she was fascinated by Sathya Sai Baba.

Knowing the healing powers of Sai Baba and his ability to solve problems, politicians also turned up in hordes. A staunch follower of Sai Baba for 22 years, surface transport minister K H Muniappa inaugurated the exhibition . The Baba has blessed him with vibhuthi prasad and navaratna rings over the years.

Minister of primary and secondary education, Vishweshwar Hegde Kageri, said he was impressed by the ‘Sai Educare’ programme , which focuses on moral and value-based education.

The 10-day exhibition is split into seven segments. Around 180 panels and 10 backlit boards showing rare moods of Sai Baba from the 1940s are displayed. Childhood photographs and others detailing Baba’s journey across India and to East Africa in 1968, his only trip abroad till date, are also displayed.

The photos include those from various schemes such as gram seva, feeding the poor and water development projects in parts of Andhra Pradesh and Chennai.

Sanathana Sarathi, the inhouse journal of the mother organization , has set up book stalls, among others, to mark its 50th anniversary. The proceeds will be used for the group’s welfare schemes.

The exhibition is likely to be held at two other places in Karnataka . Entry is free and is open from 10 am to 8 pm. September 21 is the last day.
