As noted in the previous day's diary entry, since I was in 1st PG and was supposed to be on crowd management duty at the stadium, I was not present in the Mandir for the Water project storage tanks inauguration by the PM, and the Discourse described in this page etc. Screenshot from the video at this page - https://saicast.org/1995/19951118Overview.html - showing the Prime Minister inaugurating the Summer Storage tanks of the Water Project. This page - Water, the Elixir of Life - draws the connection between the previous year's Discourse, and this inauguration.
Though You woke me at 4:30, slept again ⇒ 5:45. So, rushed ablutions, went directly to the ground without breakfast (since we were supposed to be on duty there to direct the Narayanas to their seats). Was there till 12 noon. Peaceful Narayana seva - all got clothes.

Bath, lunch, sleep, then evening Discourse, TASCAM (audio mixer) to Institute Auditorium (for Greek drama practice), Hostel (letters etc) missing TN Balvikas 'Krishnaleela' (dance drama in Poornachandra).
Narayana seva - guiding them and giving water atonement in part for somewhat rough treatment by some like Raghunath Sarma. But as You said in evening World Conference Discourse, only for my own satisfaction. SAI - Service, Adoration, Illumination. Morning You gave another definition, but I was in "Narayana seva reception". Evening "backstage" in bhajan hall, too. Delegates in front, speeches. Numbers not important, unity is important, whether actually up to Swami's expectations. Souvenirs released ...
Tomorrow declared Ladies' Day - all program by ladies. Evening at Poornachandra only ladies!
