Volunteer
Sairam, Are you missing service ? By Swami’s Grace, our region is rolling out an important volunteering opportunity called “SaiCares – Love Calls, Love Responds”.
The volunteers in this program will support, through a help line, other Sai brothers and sisters who may need some help. We are creating a volunteer registry as a repository for the talents that are available in our region. I request you to enroll in this volunteer pool so we can identify the appropriate resources when the need arises. This will be a great opportunity for all of us to bring out our hidden talents to serve our community. The volunteers in this program will support, through a help line, other Sai brothers and sisters who may need help such as the delivery of groceries, prescription pickup, give rides, non-emergency medical/emotional support, etc. When a need arises, you will have complete flexibility to accept or decline the request depending on your availability

What it is
Sairam! We are grateful to Swami for inspiring and guiding us to restart this project. We are fortunate to have several devotees from around the region who have graciously offered to serve as coaches.
Regional One-On-One Bhajan Coaching is a service offered by devotees from our region to benefit devotees who wish to learn or improve to lead bhajans. These volunteer coaches will offer this service online on the phone, by Skype or Google hangouts. Coaches can help new/aspiring singers as well as people who want to improve
It is open to SSE children, Young Adults and Adults. Anybody aspiring to learn new bhajans or improve their bhajan singing.
Sing familiar Bhajans, so that all can share in the Anandha. Also, pay attention to the tune, the meaning, the variety, the voice, the raga, the thal (the tune and the beat) and other fine points of the Bhajans. If your voice is not pleasant or sweet, keep quiet; that is the best service you can do. Do not cause discontent, discord and disharmony, insisting on singing, because you are an office-bearer, or something! The Bhajans must be sweet to the ear, arousing pictures of the glory and grandeur of Godhead, in the mind of the singers and listeners; they must refer to various Names and Forms of God, so that the Bhajan Sessions might fill every one with ecstasy. Bhajan is a Sadhana for all who share in it; that is why it is prescribed, for every Unit.
