Sairam to one and all,

Today in the early hours, I was blessed with a Divine promise (I trust and I believe so), indicating the time frame of our Beloved Swami's arrival, in the form of a vivid vision.

The vision (December 7th, 2016 - 4:00 AM):

It was in the evening, Prashanti Nilayam was filled with devotees as usual and after the bhajan all were waiting to take the Darshan of Swami's Samadhi. I too was standing in the line and the moment I reached the Samadhi, an old man in white robes came to me, and whispered in my ears silently, "Sairam! Please come with me to Swami's house." Hearing his words, I got astonished and quickly followed him, without a question. I reached an ancient huge temple like house with an atrium, adjoining Prasanthi Nilayam. I felt that this Divine Abode of Swami is hidden from the public view.

The house was constructed using pinkish stone similar to the Jaipur stone with beautiful carvings, with huge stone pillars giving it a royal palatial, ethnic look. In the centre of the atrium I saw that there was a magnificent, circular ancient Shiva Mandir. There was a huge crystal Shivalinga in the sanctum sanctorum, embellished with beautiful flowers and Bilwa leaves. The temple was looking Divinely mesmerising with series of decorative ethnic beautiful brass oil lamps. There was a gazebo opposite to the Mandir which was adorned with Jasmine climbers.

As soon as I entered the house, there I saw, few ladies preparing delicious traditional Indian dishes (sweet and hot pongal) as an offering for our beloved Swami. Then a lady came to me and offered new white clothes and asked me to change my clothes. I quickly did so. Few men and women dressed in white were hurriedly decorating the place with silk clothes and various beautiful flowers. They were all anticipating Swami's chariot to arrive at any moment.

Suddenly, that old man came to me and told "Sairam! Make the garlands quickly, to garland Swami at His arrival. Swami will be here anytime" saying thus he gave me only purple and white December flowers. His words filled me with bliss and great joy. I went into the gazebo with great energy and excitement and sat alone and started to make the garland with those purple and white December flowers.

In a short while, I saw Mrs.Yaani Drucker, (in the vision, I could recognize her instantly, and felt as if I knew her from very long, though personally I never met her) wearing a blue coloured saree, enter the house in a hurry and she too was given white clothes. She too changed her clothes and then rushed into the gazebo, sat next to me saying thus, "Swami will be coming anytime, and we have to make huge garland for Him quickly". We both got the same doubt, as to why only December flowers were given, and why not roses or jasmines or any other fragrant beautiful flowers? As we were wondering thus, and as if our thoughts were read by that old man, He came to us smilingly and said "These flowers will indicate the time of your Beloved Swami's arrival, not the Christmas, not the New year, but all would celebrate SWAMI'S ARRIVAL AS SWAMI'S NEW BIRTHDAY " while saying thus the old man turned into our Beloved Swami and suddenly gave Darshan as Lord Maha Shiva. Myself and Yaani, screamed "SWAMI!" in ecstasy and rushed to His feet.

Here ended the vision.

Jai Sai Ram!
