Following this there was a music programme conducted
by the Srikakulam Seva Samithi, which was directed by Sri
Saluru Vasu Rao, a well known music director in Andhra Pradesh.
The
following morning after Darshan, Swami asked the
Srikakulam District President to speak. Speaking for about
15 minutes, the District President touched upon the calamities
undergone by the people of Srikakulam, and how Swami’s
Name helped them face all their difficulties. Being hilly
terrain, they have difficulty finding water. When Sai workers
dug a well with Sai’s Name on their lips they found
water within 20 feet. Another villager serving a life sentence
had his sentence commuted after 3 years when he continuously
chanted ‘Aum Sri Sai Ram’. This year
too there were no rains and when the villagers commenced Akhanda
Bhajans throughout the district, it rained daily. Swami
made a gold chain for him at the conclusion of his touching
speech.
