| Sri Sathya Sai on the Jhoola in the Poorna Chandra Auditorium for the evening programme of Vijaya Dashami |
The Yajna concluded with Poornahuti on 20th October, 1988.
Bhagavan delivered His concluding Discourse, emphasising the inner significance of festivals like Navaratri and exhorted all devotees to rise above barriers of caste and creed, language and nationality and develop love towards each other as children of one God.
Bhagavan later went around the Auditorium sprinkling the Yajna Tirtha on all the devotees thus conferring His benediction on them. In the evening, He gave Darshan reclining on the Jhoola at Poornachandra Auditorium. The Institute orchestra presented a concert during the function.
Bhagavan resurrected Brigadier Bose (a long standing devotee of Bhagavan, and the man chosen by Bhagavan to engineer the construction of numerous structures including the Sarva Dharma Stupa in the Poornachandra complex) on this Vijaya Dashami day, the 20th of October 1988.

| Brigadier Bose with Sri Sathya Sai |
Brigadier Bose was seated in the audience in the Poornachandra Auditorium during Bhagavan’s Vijaya Dashami Discourse when his heart suddenly ceased functioning and he collapsed in his chair. Bhagavan who was reciting a verse, stopped midway and rushed towards Bose with a tightly clenched right fist as if holding something therein. He lifted Bose with His left hand and patted Bose on the head with His right hand. It seemed as if Bhagavan held Bose’s life in His right fist, and while patting him on the head, inducted life into Bose. Bose opened his eyes and beheld his saviour standing right next to him! “Arise and take your seat on the dias,” Bhagavan commanded, and Bose obeyed.
