Prasanthi Bulletin Index of earlier Bulletins Sunday, February 10, 2008 This evening, the Adilabad devotees presented a drama "Sri Sai Vaibhavam". Bhagawan came to Sai Kulwant hall at 5.40 pm, and the drama began after 10 minutes after He came onstage and Blessed various items brought up to Him by the devotees. Set in the court of King Krishnadevaraya, the drama presented the glory of Sai in verses and songs, many of them taken from Swami's Discourses. Bhagawan Blessed the participants by coming down from the stage and having group photographs with them, and

also sat in the Jhoola they brought for Him. He then walked back onstage and Blessed them further, accepting Arati at 7.10 pm. Then He asked for the microphone, and while it was being arranged, went to the interview room and returned. Speaking for ten minutes, Bhagawan spoke in Telugu without translation, encouraging the good work done by the Adilabad devotees and exhorting them to do even better, concluding with the Bhajan "Hari Bhajan Bina". Swami then Blessed the girls who participated in the drama with sarees. Bhajans began by the devotees, at the end of which Swami Blessed several of the men with cloth pieces. It was nearly 8 o'clock when Swami returned to His residence.
