Pratidhwani 1: Behind the Scenes

Those of you who attended first session of Pratidhwani with Ms. Anuradha Shankar, would remember the thanks-giving story narrated by Vijay Sohni.

Like he said, the house of supreme God had 3 rooms in his office. One for storing applications sent in the form of prayers by devotees as ‘Receiving Room’, what we call in our office registers in India as ‘Aavak’. Every inch of this room was stuffed with files and papers. 
Second room was designed for granting to the prayers offered by the devotees as ‘Dispatch Room’, what we call in our office registers in India ‘Jaavak’. Even this room was intensely stuffed but little less than the earlier room.

The third room was ‘Acknowledgement Room’, this room was designed to store the acknowledgement devotees send as thanks for hearing their prayers by lord. To everyone’s surprise this room was completely empty.

So team Pratidhwani wants to begin by thanking Bhagwan Baba for his blessing on strengthening our belief that a unique platform for self improvement ‘Pratidhwani’ could be created by us.

Our humble beginning resulted in attracting finest minds in their respective fields to come together and make it a grand success.

Baba rightly said- “Take one step towards Me; I shall take a hundred towards you.”

This is to entrust our belief that Bhagwan Baba comes when we chant omkar thrice. We all devotees call omkar as Baba’s telephone number.
