car and then took a large family in for interview. Bhajans and

arathi. Baba left about 15 minutes later.

Thursday Afternoon: Baba came out at 2:50 to a crowd that was not

expecting him so early. The students weren't there, yet, either. The

car went to the men's section, Baba took letter from a few people.

As he rounded the bend the crowd became more unruly and harder to

control. The police officer got verbal with many of the people. He

came back and told the seva dals that they had to do a better job

controlling the crowd. On Friday morning the crowd was lectured as

to what was expected of them.

 

Baba continue in front of the mandir with it on the left. The car

went to the center by the driveway where it stopped for a while. It

then moved through the women's section as though he was leaving from

the verandah.

 

Baba did leave through the women's exit but continued going. He went

to Canteen Way and exited the ashram that way. I believe the

stopping and then going through the women's section was a delaying

tactic to give the police and security time to make security and

traffic arrangements.

 

About 30 minutes later Baba returned through the center driveway to

the verandah.

 

He walked along the railing on the women's side to the center giving

good darshan and blessing everyone. He sat down, looked at letters,

and other things while the boys chanted. around 4:40 he went inside.

Bhajans and arathi. Baba left about ten minutes later.

 

Thursday morning: Baba came out at 7:50. The car seemed like it was

going to the men's section but stopped at the first row just inside

the hall. The car turned right just barely. He had to back up to

complete the turn. When Baba got to the verandah, he spoke with a

few people and then went inside. Bhajans and arathi.
