SBOI 15th Swami really surprised everyone by coming early and signalled the boys to take His mobile throne among the devotees. Whitefield darshan are always full of surprise since one can sit in the last row or sitting block but that doesn't mean one can't have the opportunity to get close darshan. Swami even gives close darshan to the last lines i.e. devotees sitting outside Sai Ramesh Hall. Guess, all devotees will agree that one's chance of getting a close up darshan of Swami in comparison to Puttaparthi really gets multiplied here in Brindavan ashram. SBOI Evening darshan were just amazing also in the evening Swami decided to give joy to devotees by coming among the devotees on His mobile throne.

Yajana is still going on, mostly there is a long line up on the ladies side to come inside the Kalayna Mantap and listen to the chanting but not many men devotees. – Source SBOI- Today evening Swami came at 5:10 p.m. Swami stood up for 1 bhajan after that Swami sat down on His mobile throne. However it was not before Swami's mobile throne was moved on Swami's order towards the stage-lift on the men's side. It was quite an exciting moment for all the devotees since it gave all a hope of close up darshan and perhaps a chance to present letter to Swami. Sevadal had a tough time controlling the devotees. Swami also came & gave close up darshan on to the ladies side. Swami took the stage-lift up on His mobile throne from ladies side. After that Swami was offered Arathi.
