I asked Bhagavan: "Bhagavan, kindly show me a good 
path." "What are you doing now ?" he asked. "When I am 
in the right mood, I sing the songs of 
Tyagaraja and I recite the holy Gayatri. I was also 
doing some pranayama but these breathing exercises 
have upset my health." 
 
"You had better stop them. But never give up the 
Advaita Dristhi (non dual vision)." At that time I 
could not understand his words.
 
I went to Benares for a month, returned to Pondicherry 
and spent five months there. Wherever I would go 
people would find some fault or other with me: 
"You are too weak, not fit for yoga, you do not know 
how to concentrate, you cannot hold your breath, you 
are unable to fast, you need too much sleep, 
you cannot keep vigils, you must surrender all your 
property . . ." Only Bhagavan asked for nothing, found 
fault with nothing. As a matter of truth, there was 
nothing in me that entitled me to his grace. But it 
did not matter with Bhagavan. He wanted me, not my 
goodness. It was enough to tell him "I am yours", and 
for him to do the rest. In that way he was 
unsurpassed.=====
