AARTHI FORMAT

Most Loving Sairam!!

You and your family will be doing Aarthi to Swami this Sunday.

We humbly request that you follow some guidelines:

  1. Men and boys please wear pants and shirt (no shorts). Women and girls please wear modest clothes that reflect your love and respect for Swami.
  2. Please be seated in the front rows before bhajans start.
  3. Please come forward to the altar when “Om Tat Sat” is being sung so that you are close to the lamp and there is no delay in starting Aarthi.
  4. While doing Aarthi don’t block Swami’s Picture; If you are a couple or a family, please stand on one side so everyone can see His image. Best would be to stand on the side opposite to Swami’s chair, so you can do Aarthi to Him.
  5. Please do Aarthi only clockwise to Swami; start at the Chair where Swami is seated and then proceed to the Altar Picture and then to Shirdi Sai.
  6. During Aarthi when “Narayana Narayana…” is being sung, turn and show the light to all the devotees sitting in the audience.
  7. After Aarthi is over, please sit in the front with the audience until the satsang is complete.

We thank you for this service.
