(Simultaneously with the Major's leading of slogan JAI JAGAT-JAI SHANTI and all repeating the same, the above Peace March Songs commence on one hand and the transformed Space Soldiers into PEACE SOLDIERS wearing YELLOW SCARFS on their heads with the same dress, begin their March headed by their Chief, MAJOR, wearing a GREEN SCARF, posing in Symbolic Double Role, on the other. They March from one end of the back stage to the other, say from left to right, where, on the Upper Corner of the Cyclorama Curtain are two silhouette cut pictures or poses : First of Warrior Gandhi marching with his usual stick and Second of Srimad Rajchandra seated in PADMĀSANA-the Lotus Posture, near to it Gandhi also comes and sits down in his usual PRĀRTHANA-the Prayer Posture. All of these scenes and songs in the background are to be woven skilfully. These background effects should not overlap or suppress the important Dialogues going on the outer stage. The whole End should be of everlasting impact, bringing Glory to Peace, Non-Violence, Universal Brotherhood and Joy. It should convey and highlight these ideals, especially the WAR & WARRIEORS RESULTING INTO PEACE AND WARRIORS OF PEACE : along with others' and the Major's ending words of "COULD THERE BE SUCH A WARRIOR ?", therefore, there should simultaneously go on the Peace March Songs as above and all ending into the following Shanti-Mantra Echoes: B.G. SONG : CHANTING : (4:Sanskrit) : "SHANTIM SHARANAM GACHHAMI " (Echoes) (All voices repeat) Echoing Commentary : WE DEDICATE OURSELVES TO PEACE...... B.G. SONG: CHANTING : (5: Sanskrit): "SHIVAMASTU SARVA JAGATAH" (Echoes) OM SHANTI . (3) Echoing Commentary : LET THE WHOLE UNIVERSE ATTAIN PEACE & WELFARE. PEACE.....PEACE.......PEACE......... WITH THESE BACKGROUND IMPROVISATIONS GOING ON SIMULTANEOUSLY THE PLAY ENDS).
