Morning Darshan:
On this auspicious day of Ekadashi, Swami out of his immense compassion and
graciousness, allowed the UK Grama Seva boys to distribute the special
Vijaya Dashmi edition of the Heart Valve Bank newsletter, `Heart to Heart'.
The boys handed out these newsletters, which was regarded as Swami's
prashadam, to people as they entered the Sai Kulwant Hall. Swami arrived at
7.40am, which was earlier than usual and immediately went to the veranda. He
spoke to Sri Ajit Popat (Puppet), who offered a Thank-You card from the UK
boys to express their gratitude to Swami for allowing them to participate in
this year's Grama Seva. Swami then made His way into the interview room.
Bhajans started at 9.05am this morning

This morning, Bhagawan came for
darshan at around 7.40 am. Cutting across the ladies' side, Swami
alighted near the interview room. The priests who conducted the
Dasara Yagnam were asked to come to the Bhajan Hall. Bhagawan
interacted with them for quite a while, the session concluding
with Vedic chanting by the priests at a very high pitch. Bhagawan
retired to His residence after morning Bhajans as usual.
In the evening, after evening darshan at 3 pm, Swami went
into the interview room. He came for a round of the verandah after
time, and coming into the Bhajan Hall through the rear door,
interacted with the students there who were getting ready with
costumes for their dance programme. Then He returned to the
interview room and called some devotees for interviews. Finally,
at 5.05 pm, Swami came onstage asking the students to present
their dance programme, which was similar to the one they performed
during the Ati Rudra Maha Yagnam. After their dance items,
including one in Yakshagana style depicting the Ramayana, Swami
graciously came down from the stage and had group photos with the
dancers. Accepting Arati, Bhagawan retired to His residence at
5.45 pm.
