Daaji conducted meditation at the hotel from 7:32 am to 8:02 am with practitioners from Bilaspur and neighbouring areas present. After this he departed for the next destination at Amlai, the Orient Paper Mills factory site, with a brief halt at the proposed ashram site for Bilaspur. 

Daaji arrived at Amlai around lunch and was welcomed by the MD of the paper mills Shri Ashwin Laddha, a brother practitioner. After spending some time with the host officials from the Mills, he joined them for lunch and then rested for a while. The evening schedule had a big event of Krishi Vaniki Prasar Karyakram, organised jointly by The Orient Paper Mills C K Birla Group, ASA Foundation and Heartfulness Institute. After Daaji arrived, children from the school on the campus presented a welcome song. An MOU among the three parties for the social, financial and spiritual upliftment of the farmers and families of more than a hundred villages around was then signed by Daaji and Shri Ashwin Laddha and Shri Ashish - representatives of the other two organisations. Daaji was invited to address the gathering whereupon he spoke on the importance of a practical experiential approach to meditation and feeling the divine presence in one's own heart. He then conducted group meditation for more than a thousand people present. Unexpectedly, many people from the gathering began to leave after the meditation started. It was later discovered that it happened as many of them had arrived more than two hours before and were restless to leave by the time the meditation actually started. This was one among many subtle lessons on event organising hidden at different places to come along the tour. The rest of the  evening was uneventful and he retired early to rest.
