An incident in 1977




In 1977 when Mahan was in Malaysia at the Klang Road Sabhai--Lorong Morib, one disciple approached and lamented that he could not feel the awareness (unarvu). Mahan instructed him to go outside to the compound and stand barefooted on the grass there. The disciple did as instructed and about 10 minutes later he felt a surge of current coming up thru his legs from the grass engulfing him. It was quite pleasant. After a few minutes Mahan asked him to come inside. Mahan asked me to fetch a glass of water which was given to the disciple. After that the disciple was asked to meditate and now he could feel the Awareness very well. Sometimes Mahan does this kind of things just to amuse us and make us think. Santhosham.
