some force took possession of me

[Guest guest]

Later in the morning, at Rishikesananda's request

Bhagavan recounted his frist experiende of the Self

in his upstair room at Madurai.

 

"When I lay down with limbs outstretched and mentally

enacted the death scene and realised that the body would

be taken and cremated and yet I would live, some force,

call it atmic power or anything else, rose within me and

took possession of me. With that, I was reborn and I

became a new man. I became indifferent to everything

afterwards, having neither likes nor dislikes."
