All roads were leading to Dhyanavana as we also celebrated the Convocation Day. Most Rev. Dr. Francis Serrao, SJ delivered the Keynote Address on the theme The Soul s Deepest Desire Union with God. This theme from St. John of the Cross coincides with the third Centenary Celebration of the Canonization of St. John of the Cross and first Centenary Celebration after declaring him as the Doctor of the Church. The Bishop also conferred the certificates to the students. Rev. Fr. Silvestre D Souza, OCD, the Provincial Superior and the President of the Institute delivered the Presidential address and released the Annual Magazine. Rev. Fr.
