Utsav – Saturday, 4 February 2006 |

Shreeji
Maharaj first did a Saak Utsav in the Village of Loya,
where he had gone at the request of Shree Sura Khachar
and his wife Shantibai. He was so overwhelmed by the
sight of sumptuous looking Aubergines, that he decided
to organise a Saak Utsav festival. Shreeji Maharaj
himself did the Vagar for the Saak with Ghee and Rich
Spices. He himself lovingly served it to the Sadhus
that had accompanied him to Loya
