PEOPLE WHO VISITED Sri Bhagavan during his life time,
could not have failed to observe the characteristic pose in which
he reclined on his sofa with eyes closed and his head supported
with his left arm, particularly at the time of Vedaparayana and
so on.

Some of us devotees sitting around used to watch him
intently during such periods. On several occasions I used to
mentally pray to him that on reopening his eyes, he should
bestow a look at me and I must say I was never disappointed.

So, it was crystal clear to me that prayers to Bhagavan need not
be vocal and he felt, knew, and answered the inner prayers of
all his devotees.

Conversely, there were also occasions when I sat at the feet
of Sri Bhagavan and intently meditated on his form with closed
eyes, and most often when I opened my eyes, Sri Bhagavan
appeared to be watching me. It is a great comfort even now to
recall the experience of those exquisite moments which stand
out so vividly in my memory. Time hasn't effaced even a fraction
of those vistas.
