He gave a brief description of what happened to him when he spoke to Kunju Swami: 'When I came to Bhagavan, he was seated like a rock outside Virupaksha Cave. His unwavering gaze was filled with grace, compassion and steady wisdom. I stood by his side. After giving me a look, he opened the gate of my Heart and I was also established in his state. I stood like that for eight hours, absolutely without fatigue, but filled with total absorption and peace. Bhagavan in those days used to open our Heart with a simple gracious look and it transformed us. There was no need for any question since he made us, by his look, like himself.'" (David Godman: Power of the Presence, part one, p. 81) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
