Yogis from Italy came to greet Shri Mataji and thank Her for having blessed their country during Her stay for the past 6 months. Hundreds came from the various regions of the Land of the Soul. They all sang bhajans and eagerly awaited with flowers to see their Beloved Grande Madre.
News spread soon that Shri Mataji would receive all after Tea, so a small bhajan group sat in Shri Mataji's living room and started singing; everyone in the Castle joined in. Soon after small groups of yogis representing their collective went in to see Shri Mataji. Occasionally Mother would ask where they were from. The Yuvashakti had a chance of offering Mother a small poem and a gift. Shri Mataji looked at each yuva sitting there and inquired whose children they were.
The evening finished with yogis singing bhajans.
