My Dear Kanan & Ravish,
If I had doubt that you can not see God, it was demystified on 10th March.
Your Tatvam & Ridrakshi did it. I met God in them thru you.
Yes - Nenu malli vasta- I again come back, may be this weekend only before it is too late and I deter in my commitment.
I owe you everything for this opportunity Ravish to you, Kanan for making it happen in only six years. What is being done has to be seen to believe.
Ravish don't come alone, bring as many friends as you can. By this mail I invite Vikhyat & Mukesh also. It's tough to come but hard to digest what we find. Please visit once instead of any temple. In temple you need to think of God. Here God is with you, holding your hand, playing with you, cajoling, feeding and when you part saying Come again. Of course, Nenu malli vasta.
My love to all at Ashram.
Eager to come back, Jay Gurudev
Mayur
