How do Indian Bhajans come to Switzerland
Some Swiss Sai devotees and musicians dedicate themselves to singing, playing and teaching these Bhajans. For this purpose they have edited books with the transcription from original Indian audio sources of 3 x 108 Bhajans (324 Bhajans) in western music notation.
Why do we sing Bhajans
In 1968 Sathya Sai Baba said: "Sing aloud the glory of God and charge the atmosphere with divine adoration; the clouds will pour the sanctity through rain on the fields; the crops will feed on it and purify and fortify the food; the food will induce divine urges in man. This is the chain of progress. This is the reason why I insist on group singing of the names of the Lord."

: The characters soon discover that they cannot die within the vicinity of the lake. Despite horrific, fatal wounds (such as gunshot holes through the chest or head), they remain conscious and "alive."
In this story, the footage is presented as a recovered video from a camcorder. The narrative follows a group of young adults on a camping and water-skiing trip at a lake in Indiana. The "story" of the tape is a central plot point involving a supernatural curse and a local cult:
: It is revealed that a local cult, led by a man named Rob (who appears in the segment "Ambrosia"), performs rituals involving a lake deity. The "b1360" footage serves as the found-footage evidence of the supernatural phenomena caused by these rituals.
: While out on the water, the group is targeted by a mysterious sniper. Several members are shot and seemingly killed, and the boat eventually sinks.
