“Bhagawan's Grace Flows to<br />

Poor Adivasi Villages In<br />

Maharashtra & Goa ..."<br />

Taking inspiration from Bhagawan, here is a small act of<br />

service undertaken by some of the <strong>Sai</strong> Youth from<br />

Washim, District of Maharashtra.<br />

When this group of <strong>Sai</strong> Youth went to a village for Grama<br />

<strong>Seva</strong> they approached each house in the village to know<br />

their problems and needs. In one such house, a mother<br />

expressed her helplessness in correcting the behaviour<br />

of her son. The son was a sight of utter disgust. He had<br />

not taken bath for many months, his hair was unkempt,<br />

and his body was full of dirt, with stench emnating from<br />

him and his unclean clothes. The villagers had<br />

designated this young boy as 'Mad'. His heart <strong>bro</strong>ken<br />

mother pleaded to our <strong>Sai</strong> Youth for help. The zealous<br />

<strong>Sai</strong> Youth decided to act in response to the poor<br />

mother's request.<br />

Amidst the <strong>Sai</strong> Youth there was a Doctor who treated<br />

this young boy and discovered that he was not mad. He<br />

just needed to be hygienic and clean. <strong>Sai</strong> Youth engaged<br />

into service and they arranged to have him clean shaven<br />

and gave him a hard scrub . This by itself was no mean<br />

task, because no ordinary body soap could help remove<br />

the dirt. They had to use a strong detergent to wash him<br />

clean. Therafter, they gave him a fresh pair of clothes,<br />

applied vibhuti on his forehead & made him pray &<br />

prostrate in front of our Cosmic Change Initiator, our<br />

beloved SAI.<br />

This act by the dedicated <strong>Sai</strong> Youth inspired this young<br />

boy to Transform. This boy, is now not only hygienic and<br />

clean but also has started earning and is a source of<br />

inspiration for many youth in the village.<br />

This is but one tiny drop in the ocean of this journey of<br />

life. Nevertheless, one cannot negate the value of each<br />

drop that goes to make the whole ocean !<br />
