We sat in PC (Poornachandra) by 5:45 am. You came - so graceful - in white with kasavu (zari) at bottom, at 8 am. Sitting there on the blue throne - beautiful!
After Mr Chitti Babu, You started with: God, though director, is also actor - so, waits for correct scene for correct dialogue. Power-hunger, not stopping at bloodshed, has ruined the country. Mughals killed kith and kin. But Rama and Bharata? Shishupala was tolerated till the appointed time, by Krishna. Similarly now I want all devotees - those who call themselves so - to give up meat eating. How can you claim to be devotees and eat chicken? Real rakshasas not Bhaktas. Then, instead of water, they drink from the bottle. Along with that is smoking too. So, all true devotees must from this moment on: give up mamsaharam, madya panam, and smoking. (Wow!) Be it whoever, foreigner or Indian!
You also mentioned, 'you've been coming to Prasanthi Nilayam since 20, 30 years back, but what is the use if no love? Develop love...' How You fill these days with Your sambhashana....
Have been without specs for two-three days - someone stepped on it, breaking the hinge.
Evening jhoola - again the white kasavu robe - beautifully swinging - rather violently - to P Susheela + Leela + Ramakrishna songs - rather horrible. You kept Your legs up, leaning on one pillow. After the program, message to go to Sarva dharma stupa - fireworks display. What a birthday!
