2013 Sai National Conference
The 2013 National Conference will be held in Canberra during the Australia day weekend from Saturday 26 – Monday 28 January 2013.
The theme of the Conference is Be His Flute. This reminds us of the need to shed our ego and attachment and surrender to the will of God, making our being hollow and pure - enabling Him to breathe through us. This melodious tune of love towards all creation will continue the mission of Sathya Sai Baba, transforming to pure love the minds and hearts of men and women, youth and children.
The Sathya Sai National Conference 2013 will have speakers (both international and local), exhibitions, presenters and workshops focussed on the theme. We will also be inspired and uplifted by talented musicians and performers throughout the conference.
The purpose of this biennial conference is to bring together members of the Sai community around Australia for the purpose of inspiration, renewal and invigoration of our spirituality, in an atmosphere charged with the love of Sathya Sai Baba. The Conference also provides an opportunity for us all to reflect, refresh and to open to new ideas - individually and collectively.
Inspiring Speakers
Professor Anil Kumar needs no introduction. He is an enchanting speaker who, in addition to translating Swami's discourses for many years, has given talks regularly at Prasanthi Nilayam and at various locations around the world.
Mr Leonardo Gutter is one of the leading lights in the Sai Organisation in South America and gave a keynote address at the 2011 Guru Poornima celebrations in Prashanti Nilayam.
Mr Sumeet Tappoo is a gifted and popular singer who has performed several times at Prashanti Nilayam at the behest of Swami and is well known amongst Australian devotees.
Australian Focus
This conference is set on the stage of our nation's capital and offers an opportunity for us to reflect on how we can be instruments of Sai's love to promote the well being of our Australian society and the beautiful land in which He has placed us. We inhabit an ancient land with a rich indigenous spiritual tradition which has supported its people over centuries to withstand the hardships of wind, sun and rain and to live in harmony with all. The song lines they followed kept their sacred land alive.
The ancient spiritual teachings brought to us through Sathya Sai Baba remind us that we are divine, that all is God - this is the song which will call and unite all of us as one human family - that will enable us to experience our sacredness – if we Be His Flute.
