The day was slated to feature discourse of Param Poojya Sadguru Aniruddha Bapu at Bharatratna Dr. Babasaheb Ambedkar Stadium of Sangli. This was the occasion when almost every Shraddhavan friend of Sadguru Aniruddha from the region of Western Maharashtra had flocked to meet his beloved Sadguru. The discourse was schedule for 5:00 pm in the evening and yet Shraddhavans had started to gather at the Stadium right from 6:30 am in the morning. They had come in whatever form of transportation that they could get. It was amazing to see the zeal and enthusiasm of these Shraddhavans, who had gathered to catch atleast a glimpse of Aniruddha Bapu.

Finally the most awaited moment neared. Every possible place in the Stadium had been occupied well before the discourse was to start. Hundreds of dignitaries had also thronged along with the Shraddhavans for Sadguru Bapu’s discourse. The gathering was totally unprecedented. Even the police officials who were present for the security of the event mentioned that Sangli had seen visits of important people, celebrities and leaders from all walks and quarters, some even of national stature, yet the gathering which they were witnessing that day had out-numbered all those visits and public gatherings at this very Stadium.

Finally Param Poojya Bapu arrived. Even His silhouette in the dusking sun was mesmerising the crowds. The event started with Param Poojya Sadguru Aniruddha Bapu laying the Foundation Stone for the refurbishment of the Stadium. The Mayor of Sangli welcomed Param Poojya Sadguru Aniruddha Bapu for this inauguration.

Beginning with prayers Param Poojya Aniruddha Bapu proceeded with His discourse. Bapu spoke for about an hour. Shraddhavans were listening in rapt attention to their Sadguru. It was Bapu, Bapu and Bapu all over.

The enthralling discourse followed with an exuberant chanting of Gajars. Shraddhavans drenched themselves in the tunes of love and devotion in presence of their Sadguru. What followed gajars were the endless waves of Shraddhavan who had queued since morning to catch atleast a glimpse of their Sadguru.

Shraddhavans were not leaving the stadium even after the darshan of Sadguru; they were there in the Stadium itself, their eyes fixed on Bapu.
