The Sai Avatar has been a continuous saga of love, joy, and glory. Perhaps this glory is felt the most on the auspicious occasion of His birthday, November 23rd. On this day, millions of devotees from all corners of the globe offer their infinite gratitude to their Lord, Bhagavan Sri Sathya Sai Baba, for incarnating in such a charming and beautiful form and redeeming men, women, and children from all walks of life. During the 50th birthday celebrations in 1975, with a gathering of 250,000 devotees who had assembled even on the roofs of buildings and on the branches of trees to have a darshan of Bhagavan, Swami emphasized this purpose of His incarnation by inaugurating the Sarva Dharma Aikya Stoopa, which is present till now in His residence complex, Yajur Mandir, at Prasanthi Nilayam. This Stoopa represents the unity of all faiths, and illustrates Swami's message, "Paths are many, but the goal is one." In this video, we see scenes of that glorious birthday celebration, which includes the first ever Rathotsavam at Puttaparthi on November 18th, the 3rd World Conference of Sri Sathya Sai Seva Organizations held at the Poornachandra Auditorium in Prasanthi Nilayam, Narayana Seva held on the open grounds near Swami's college, and the birthday itself in which Swami gives darshan to the multidude of devotees and inaugurates the Stoopa near the Prasanthi Mandir at Parthi. Besides the 50th birthday celebration, we see scenes from Swami's visits to Dharmakshetra, His ashram in Mumbai, in 1974 and 1976, in which He attends balvikas rallies, inaugurates a Sarva Dharma Aikya Stoopa at His residence in Dharmakshetra, Satyadeep, listens to devotional music from devotees and renowned musicians such as Pandit Anup Jalota, delivers Divine Discourses, and grants darshan to all assembled at each occasion. An extra feature of this film is an exhibition arranged by the devotees of Dharmakshetra, which revolve around Swami's teachings and This is an effort for all devotees to travel back in time and revel in the beauty of Swami's darshan, message, and love. Although the video quality is very good for an old film, there are certain areas in which the footage is rather dark; kindly pardon those glitches.
