Sai says that Narad Muni always comes during the Pushkar Mela and our devotees have experienced this. Every year arrangements for free food (bhandara) are made on a large scale and no visitor goes hungry. Even tea is distributed from 4 am onwards. Food is cooked for nearly 15,000 visitors daily and for this hundreds of devotees come for seva, not only locally but from throughout the country!
During the Mela vegetables are ordered in thousands of kilos and the devotees are eveready for service. Sai himself is fully involved and keeps an eye on every activity! Many times He comes and teaches the way to cut vegetables correctly! When food is distributed to the visitors, He teaches how the serving spoon should not touch the plate used for eating. His eyes rotate everywhere, whether it is cutting, cooking, distributing, loading, storing, etc.
It is a sight to see to realise that without His divine blessing and strength, it would be impossible for about 200 devotees to make about 20,000 chappatis each day for 5 days continuously in about 7 to 8 hours! At that point of time it seems that the Lord of the Universe has Himself descended on earth here and is amidst us to guide us through this grand happening!
While passing through every department, Sai always encourages and makes everyone laugh with His unique way of narrating different incidents, thereby removing any feeling of tiredness and making everyone feel fresh and happy! The devotees too confess that not only they do not feel tired, but even if they had any pain or ailment, it vanishes by participating in this seva!
