1995-01-16 - Monday - Jain Sir's B'day? card + Swami's photo at night in room by 3rd year Phy boys (us). Kept disclaiming. Plans for Thursday "Physics Day". Keeping SRH (Sai Ramesh Hall) speakers back (we had taken them to Parthi for Sports Meet) and fixing MCB wire wasted evening also. Did Mathematical Physics during study hours - test tomorrow. Had class 10 to 4 - woke at 8 in the morning.
With exams only 1½ weeks away and "Physics Day" claiming time till Thursday, "challenges", surely. II years congratulated, as only one failure last semester - exhorted to do better. [I yr 14, III yr 7]. Ruminated over my "lack of will power", i.e. not doing what I intended to do, eg. to write this diary after dinner etc. Decided that a concerted effort to do as I think along with doing what I say may eliminate my "negative karinaakku", i.e. whatever I say becoming untrue (eg. if I say it won't rain, it will, etc.) Also, must keep "Insha allah" in mind for any future projection.
1995-01-17 - Tuesday - Jain Sir rang up Prof. Balasubramaniam, he said 55 minutes for speech. Also, no video camera for "See your own voice" (for CCTV) (this was one of the proposed exhibits for the "Physics Day") So ... Jain Sir got a slip from Warden to S. G. Sir, authorizing "PV" speakers for the program! So I lost bet to Rajesh - Rs. 30 coffee. Prof. Balsu didn't come in the afternoon - we were preparing for "Physics Day". Just after study hours, (we were informed that) "Physics Day" is postponed to 9th Feb.
Writing the other diary (the above paragraph) is just a test of memory; writing this one is communion with You. "Physics Day" crossword, scientists' pictures, anecdotes - all are asking my opinion. Decided it was Your plan to make me give up mamakaara. If I give up, "all for You", decided that then the program would surely be a success. Otherwise, otherwise. esp. my P. A. system talk (which was one of the proposed items during Moral Class.)
1995-01-18 - Wednesday - Classes held. Exam time-tables, mid-semester and end-semester, discussed. Basic practicals - did Thermistor. Stores -> evening phut. Made a time-table of study hours, paper to log in, etc. Mathematical Physics chosen for today by lots.
Bhajan time - You are the concretization of the "good" spark in me - which is the actual "I", of course. Also - mind keeps running if think "Oh! Mind is running" & get anxious. So, as You say, think positive "I want to think of You" - then quietens. What a nice photo (lighting Summer Course lamp) You gave us (1995 calendar).
This is another lighting lamp picture, not the one referenced above which I could not find online right now: this one is from this page - Sathya Sai with Students: Sri Sathya Sai Advices Parents
