The 9th All-India Divine Life Convention held at Venkatagiri in 1957 was a 
landmark in the Dharmic campaign of Swami. He presided over the deliberations 
and sounded the clarion call of Sadhana and spiritual regeneration. On the 
second day, Swami materialised a gold ring studded with a composite picture of 
Shirdi Sai and Himself, and gave it to Sri Yogiraj V. S. Bua, who was one of 
the speakers. He also materialised grapes and Vibhuti and gave it to him as 
Prasad. Two Sanyasi scholars Sri Satchidananda and Sri Sadananda of the 
Sivananda Ashram attended this convention. They both accompanied Swami on His 
return to Puttaparthi.

On His way to Puttaparthi, Swami visited Kodaikanal for the first time, and 
stayed with Sri Venkatamuni and Smt. Susilamma. The old devotees Sri Nagaratnam 
Mudaliar and Sri Parthasarathy Mudaliar had Darshan of Swami there.
