THEME/S
About thirty years back, when I was at the age of thirteen, I had my first conscious awakening to spirituality through the books of Swami Rama Tiratha, entitled In the Woods of God-Realisation.
One noon, lying on the cot on the roof of my house, as I was studying one of these volumes, something made me stop reading. I kept the book aside and closed my eyes. I saw before my closed eyes as if the whole horizon, surcharged with peace, power, light and bliss had come down and merged into the earth.
Though awe-stricken I was left in a daze of joy and bliss. Later in my life I always used to remember this vision and pine for having it again, but it would not happen.
Recently I came into contact with the Mother. My desire to have that vision was still there. Last year on the Mother’s birthday, when I was sleeping in my room in the Golconde, again I had the vision of the horizon surcharged with peace, power and bliss coming down and uniting with the earth. Also with it I had a perception as if the Mother was behind the horizon directing this descent. Thus my long-standing desire was fulfilled and along with it I understood more clearly the significance of the vision.
