situations, quoting from his own life. He says, when, once recently

vowed to go on to live with liquid food only, how situations arose

to make him to give up his Upavasa Deeksha and how he successfully

encountered it with firm determination. Since the Deekasha is about

avoiding solid food, the negative forces acting as vibrant with the

atmosphere with many people asking him to join juicy parties with

tempting dishes. It is firm willpower only one can come out of such

situations keeping one's own vision on the Lotus Feet of the

Almighty. After successfully completing the 40 days Deeksha, he

explained he felt that his mind has cleansed itself of many

avoidable things. The body and mind became light and he felt re-

energized, felt stronger in respect of willpower. Shri Saba Natesan,

Krishna about Sadhana and how Maya gets into interference with
