During the Bhandara and katai week, the canteens are open from 3:00 AM to 4:15 AM, 1:30 hours after the announced closure of khet in morning, between 1:30 and 2:30 PM in afternoon. However it needs to be noted that most of us are practically fatigued by 10:00 AM in morning with whatever we have eaten since morning working nearly continously. Consequently arrangements have been made with a white Safari bringing in Mathari and Gud every day for all brothers working in the fields. Gud has a magical property because it collates all the small wheat stem particles stuck in your throat.
Incidentally, the water tankers have a slightly different and pleasant taste of water. The reason is that these tankers were the same in which Gulab Jal was used to spray during Holi - the water still carries the same flavour and is very very refreshing to drink.
Needless to say, the water tankers remain a huge collection point for all of satsangis in the fields.
GH has been giving Chyavanprash only to the people who have worked full time in Khet both morning and evening - otherwise they have been asked to collect the same from Ayurved pharmacy ;-). The same goes for Balm which is getting on sale every evening. The instructions are clear - you have to work to earn any prasad.
