Monica Bose-Growing up in the Grace of Bhagavan - 8

[Guest guest]

Behind Bhagavan there was a window through which we could see the Hill

Arunachala. It has long been worshipped as the Mark of Absolute Consciousness, the infinite and undying Self. There was a mystical union between the Hill and Bhagavan. Since childhood Venkataraman had felt its influence, but it was after Self-realization, when he answered its summons and drew close, that he knew the Hill was essentially one with him. For years he represented its nature introducing us gently to the awesome mystery of Absolute Being. I know how immensely fortunate we were to have been there with Bhagavan, who made Eternal Life more accesible to us by his life on earth. Yet, limitations of time and place do not really exist, and Bhagavan is still there, as many have experienced.
