"One day at about 10 a.m. a certain princely person appeared before Bhagavan. We

need

not mention names, but it is enought to say that he was very pious and devoted

to the

worship of Siva, learned in Tamil and in the Scriptures. He had great love for

saints (sadhus).

Having heard of Sri Bhagavan's greatness, he had long been eager to pay his

respects to Him,

and now after several years of effort had come to Him.

 

In his royal robes, he stood in the presence of Bhagavan for over half an hour;

nobody spoke

to him or asked him to be seated. It seemed that he found pleasure in standing

before Bhagavan,

and stood motionless like a statue. His glorious eyes were all the time on that

devout personality,

blessing him with His Grace. Bhagavan and he remained without a movement; there

was perfect

stillness in the room. It was a wonderful sight to see the Ekarat (Emperor of

Saints) Himself

giving and the princely beggar receiving at His hands. After the half hour, the

Prince

prostrated before Bhagavan and left."

 

(T.K. Sundaresa Iyer: At the Feet of Bhagavan, p. 46)
