and proceeded to Yajur Mandiram seated in His special Lamborghini vehicle,

preceded by the Bands of the Primary School, the Anantapur Campus and the

Prasanthi Nilayam campus of the Institute. At Yajur Mandiram, Bhagawan first

Blessed the Puja being conducted in the entrance hall. Doctors and other guests

were seated, ready for the Banquet being hosted by Swami, in the twin building

adjacent to Bhagawan's residence. Swami went there, Blessed all of them and

then proceeded to the Poornachandra, where all the students and teachers were

being served Lunch. Taking a round there in His chair, Swami went back to Yajur

Mandiram and proceeded upstairs. In the evening, Swami came to Sai Kulwant Hall

a few minutes past 4 o'clock. After He sat onstage for a few minutes, the

Vice-Chancellor announced that the students would present some songs and a skit

relating the significance of Yugadi. The skit incorporated the "Panchanga

sravanam" or the reading of the almanac, and

conveyed Bhagawan's message that as long as we have God's Blessings (Anugraha),

the nine planets (grahas) cannot affect us. After this programme which also

incorporated several songs, Bhagawan indicated that He would be giving us His

Divine Message. The text of Bhagawan's Yugadi message will be available here

soon. By the time Bhagawan completed His Discourse, it was past 6.15 pm. Then

prasadam was distributed to all, and Bhagawan retired to His abode. March 29th,

2006 The last few days saw several programmes put up by the students at very

short notice. This evening witnessed a drama by the school boys, Bhaktha

Chaitanya, on the life of the poet saint Chaitanya Mahaprabhu. After the

Chaitanya drama, Swami asked for an impromptu dance by the dance group, with

the song 'Ramanna Ramudu' being sung live.... And then a speech in classical

Telugu by one of the Institute students, followed by songs and bhajans.

On the 27th the school boys of the X and XII classes who had finished their

exams presented some skits interspersed with songs, based on Swami's Chinna

Kathas. You can see an illustrated version of happenings at Prasanthi

Nilayam in the Prasanthi Diary of our monthly e-Journal Heart to Heart. The
