After the traditional Rathotsavam in the morning, the packed Sai Kulwant Hall had to endure a long wait in the evening. It was penance for the capacity crowd that waited for four long hours. The long wait finally found fulfillment when Bhagawan came out at 6:40 for a complete round, feasting the eyes, filling and fulfilling thousands of hearts, minds and souls with bliss unlimited.

Sai Kulwant that was decorated for the weeklong festive occasion bore a regal look with colourful festoons, flowers hanging everywhere. At the twilight, when The Lord made His ‘strides’ into the hall, blessing the thousands awaiting His glance, it a was a sight to behold, as if glittering diamond that went missing got just added unto the jewel, bringing a fillip to the already existing Divine Ambience.

Bhagawan came out from His Abode at 5:30 pm heading towards the Poornachandra Auditorium for a scheduled final rehearsal session of Convocation Drama 2009. Silent witness He is, Bhagawan sat through the entire session lasting over forty-five minutes, finally giving nod of approval. He had words of appreciation and advice for some of the main characters. Mr. Narasimhamurty, Warden, Brindavan campus, writer-director for the drama, was seen explaining to Bhagawan sequences in detail.

Earlier, before heading for the rehearsal session, “Life on Wheels”, a sophisticated modern ambulance with multifarious features, with a commitment to survival of life under adverse conditions, was blessed and inaugurated by Bhagawan outside His residence. The ambulance was an offering by iCare, Ion Bio Med-iCare Pvt. Ltd., Delhi owned by Anil Kulwant Rai and Group, to Sri Sathya Sai Medical Trust.
