Sirsi,

 

Lord, Guha Incarnate[1]

 

Bhagavan should have already known about my life of Tapas here with my followers

through the letters from Sundara Rao Pandit, Viswanatha, and Kapali. Since the

past three days all of us here are having blissful experiences; I am

particularly happy of my own experiences. Many have had the vision of Bhagavan

in their dreams. All of us are of the firm conviction that this progress is

entirely due to the gracious glance of the Bhagavan.

 

Lord, my present inner experience achieved by Bhagavan’s look of grace I

understand as inherence in the Vijnana-Atman, the sphere of pure intellect. I

clearly experience my Self in the cave of the heart quite distinct from the

body; yet, I have not ceased looking upon the world as different from myself.

And, so I consider that this is not the complete and ultimate inherence in the

Self. May Bhagavan Himself bless me with that Purna-Nishta by His gracious look

capable of traversing any distance. My experience of ecstasy hitherto was

particularly dynamic; it was pure and simple flow of power; but now it is

perceived to be a flow of light giving a sense of utmost lightness. My faith is

getting strengthened that the Deities are working upon for the fulfillment of

the great task, impelled by Bhagavan Maharshi’s look of Grace. May Bhagavan

send me as a reply, His Look, full of compassion. Kapali with his wife,

Mahadeva, Viswanatha, Ranga, and Sitaram’s daughter are residents of the Ashram

here. Sundara Rao Pandit, his sister and Devendra Sarma join us usually every

morning and evening. All of us pray for the Gracious Look of Bhagavan.

I am,

Bhagavan’s servant

Vasishtha Ganapati

P.S: Lord, I shall scrutinize Sat-darsana[2] tommorrow onwards and send it soon

to your holy presence.
