1996-01-18 - Thursday - School Prize Distribution & Sai Prerna

Woke only at 5:50, so (reached) new Hostel by 6:30. Unidentified hum (in the audio system) - maybe from kitchen appliance. Changed some cables as bad. You came around 8 am - bhajan and vedam. I adjusted the speaker mic, Rama put Your mic. KBR cried when a Telugu poem about You was read!

Wound up (the audio system) after You went down from B-floor terrace shamiana to dining hall to eat. Only Institute & School boys, none else. Then, found all were running - (You were going to) Sai Prerna (garden in senior Hostel)! SAK was already there - OK. (You spent) 10 minutes in Prerna - swing, hut relaxed. Ate a piece of sugarcane, drank a few drops of coconut water, ate a grape, blessed bananas, fed Sai Gita, washed hands & went (back to Mandir). "Like a park - not garden" - on jhoola, looking around - aesthete.
