On this Sunday morning, Bhagawan was ushered into the hall at 9:34 while
bhajan was on. After a seven-minute- long full-round of Darshan Bhagawan came
on to the verandah at 9:41. Just before ascending the verandah Bhagawan chose
to interact with some of the primary kids at the Primary School Block, blessing
the tiny tots. Moving through the lower verandah, Bhagawan came on to the dais
at 9:44 through the University Block at the right of Ganesha and sat through
the bhajan session till Arathi at 10:12. Upon the Arathi, Bhagawan interacted
with some of the students on the dais and later blessed Prasadam for Primary
School before proceeding to Yajur Mandiram at 10:21. Being Sunday, students
were also present for morning Darshan.

In the evening, Bhagawan came into the hall at 6:00 to the chanting of
Vedas. Taking a detour through the ladies' side, Bhagawan came onstage through
the right of Ganesha calling the University Brass Band Troupe for blessings.
The Univesity Brass Band, that is in its glorious Silver Jubilee year, was
ready with a Programme, celebrating the occasion in the Divine Presence. A
half-an-hour programme followed, wherein the boys produced some scintillating
music pieces, wading through His Story - The Story of His Avataric Advent, in a
most innovative style, with a mix of compeering, singing followed by sounding
through Band Instruments. Upon conclusion, at 6:35, Bhagawan called the boys
onstage for exclusive group photo sessions. The final piece was sung
thereafter, a piece expressing gratitude, to the tune of Swami's often heard
song, "Love is My Form...Truth is My Breath....". Upon this final song, Safari
pieces and Prasadam were distributed to the Band Troupe before Bhagawan finally
climbing down the stairs, at 6:50, for yet another photo session, a group photo
with the Troupe. Upon ascending the podium, Arathi was offered before Bhagawan
moved towards His Divine Abode, Yajur Mandiram at 6:55.
