The Sai Kulwant hall was decked for Krishnashtami from last evening

with blue cloth decorations and a Krishna statue onstage. Bhagavan had

come for darshan at 6.15 pm yesterday and had accepted Arati after

more than 90 minutes of bhajans at 6.35 pm. This morning, students

from all three campuses of the University were present for darshan,

along with a contingent from the institutions at Muddenahalli and

Alike and a group of devotees from Maharashtra. Swami gave Janmashtami

darshan clad in a yellow robe seated on the special white chair at

9.20 am. After His darshan round, He moved to the interview room and

emerged after nearly an hour to accept Arati onstage at a quarter past

ten. He went to the interview room again briefly before returning to

His residence in the car.

 

In the evening, the procession of cows from the Gokulam led by Swami's

baby elephant arrived in Sai Kulwant hall at five o'clock as the

bhajans began. Swami came fifteen minutes later came onstage after

blessing the quadrupeds during His darshan round. Krishnashtami songs

were being sung as Swami gave darshan. Once He sat onstage for a few

minutes, He asked for bhajans to be sung, and prasadam was

distributed. At 6.20, He accepted Arati and returned to His residence.

A meeting of the "thyagajeevi"s of the institutions at Muddenahalli

and Alike along with many of those working at Bhagavan's institutions

at Prasanthi Nilayam and Brindavan was arranged over the weekend at

the hall in the building adjacent to Swami's residence. This evening

after bhajan, there was an orientation lecture session there after the

evening bhajan for an hour.

This

evening, the devotees from Srikakulam district were to present a drama.

Swami went for a drive at 11 am this morning, and came for evening

darshan at a quarter past five. Once He came onstage, He asked for the

programme to commence. The Telugu drama 'Sai Bharati' brought out the

glory of Mother India as narrated by Max Mueller, Rabindranath Tagore

and Bal Gangadhar Tilak. The inspiring 45 minute presentation was

filled with quotes and poems from Bhagavan's Discourses. Swami called

up 'Max Mueller' and blessed him with a chain even as the drama was

going on. At the end of the drama, Bhagavan went to the interview room

and emerged with clothes for the participants. He went down among them

for group photographs and once back onstage, blessed many items brought

up to Him as prasadam was distributed before accepting Arati at 6.45 pm.
