ABSTRACT
Today I have carefully watched Maharshi when he was’ officiating’ or, as the Hindus say—‘giving Darshan’, which means he is visible for all to see. From morning till noon and from 3.30 p.m. till evening he sits in the temple hall, or under the bamboo roof near the library, surrounded by a group of pupils and residents of the Ashram, and by a crowd of visitors and pilgrims. He speaks very little and cases where he directly addresses anyone are rare indeed.
