The sun appears serene and peaceful. The days have become shorter, and the cool wind is blowing. The fields are ripe with golden crops. Marigold flowers are blossoming like garlands of pearls on the banks of rivers. The farmers are rejoicing and singing. The sweet festival of Sankranti has come in the month of Pushya (a month in the Indian calendar), filling our homes with the newly harvested grain. (Sathya Sai Baba: Divine Discourse – 14 Jan 2007)
