During the 70's, when Mahan was in Malaysia and when he was about to leave for India, we asked one disciple to book the air ticket and gave the required cash. This disciple used the cash for his own needs thinking there was still time to book the ticket. When Mahan kept asking if the ticket was taken, all kind of lies was told. Because of this there was a delay in Mahan going back. Eventually, this disciple rolled up the cash and managed to buy the ticket. Mahan made the comment that when a wet dhoti (a piece of white cloth worn by south Indians) is thrown over a thorny rose plant, you have to remove the wet dhoti very carefully so as not to tear it as it will get stuck with the thorns.This ought to be a lesson for disciples not to play-play with Kundalini and the Gurus.
