Thanks to devotees who participated in Homam, Sai Satya Vratha and generously sponsored puja expenses. Our sincere thanks to Saibandhus who sponsored Sri Anantha Raman, the priest's travel expenses, Sri Manhar Udhas ji's lodging, and facilitated transportation. We are also thankful to Shirdi Saibaba mandir, Chicago for arranging Sri Manhar Udhas and his party's visit.
No words can describe the hard work and enthusiasm of children who performed cultural activities and danced to the tune of Sri Manhar Udhas singing the glory of Sadguru Sri Sainath Maharaj! Parents who drove children for practice sessions and devotee volunteers who facilitated the cultural activities are thanked respectfully.
Artists who gave classical dance performances and vocal recital are thanked for their participation and support. The music party of Fazel and Gorinka are conveyed our special thanks and sincere gratitude for the help and support they rendered.We also thank business sponsors who provided monetary support through advertisement in Souvenir, and the volunteer who composed the Souvenir, had it printed and sent it from India in time for the event. We are extremely thankful to BAPS Sri Swaminarayan Mandir and its volunteers for providing unstinted help and cooperation throughout the two-day event. May Saibaba blessings be on everyone.
Finally, sincere appreciation to ALL Sai devotees of Minnesota who supported Sai Utsav by purchasing the entry tickets and help raise funds for our Permanent Saibaba Mandir. We pray, hope and look forward to everyone's continued support and participation towards this effort.
