1995-04-02 - Sunday - group interview

 

Group photo at the end of Summer Course 1991. I'm not present in this photo, but many of my XII MPC classmates are. Some of them continued on for BSc also.

Morning - we final years sat together - "Haayigaa Poyi Raandi" (Happily go and return, Swami told us.) After just a 15 minute interview, all BRN went inside. About work. Slept again, lunch, slept. Portico for darshan - very hot outside. Walked with Jain Sir - pizzas + icecream on D floor of new Hostel (under construction). 

You poured so much grace - but laziness covers. First, the "interview" in sweaty conditions - mostly about work in May 1st week. "Kodai cancelled" - Jain Sir says, for today! Rajesh Singh - "try kooda cheya ledu ... doosre mein bura dekhta to apna bura bhi add ho jaayega" (didn't even try ... if you see faults in others, your faults also will get added)... Chenchulakshmi, Malayali (R. Prashant), Avinash (doubts), Vivekanand, Rakesh Menon, ...

Then, with robe clinging with sweat, You gave us padanamaskar. I hesitated to go in with the other boys, thinking only those who're going (should go inside.) Ruchir Sir's pushing ...

Talking to Suresh about home, food (continued from bus journey conversation). Jain Sir's speculation - demolishing of Poornachandra...
