TULSI-PRAJÑA, July-Sept., 1992
ration, what looked so intricate and impossible was easily resolved. Acharyashree is not a judge of any court, yet he is the repository of justice. Every one is attracted to him. The Harijan hosts of Kanana presented a letter before him, to the effect:
46
We, belonging to the Meghvansh caste, are the natives of this place. We are the victims of the high-handedness of the moneylenders. So, kindly remonstrate with them. By their dishonesty, they cause us great sorrow. If this load is taken off us, we should be able to improve our lot.
Also, they practise untouchability so strictly that we dare not ascend the steps leading to their shops. Are we not among the sons of man? Your aims are highly beneficial and designed to serve the good of all mankind. We promise to serve the good of all mankind. We promise to live in accordance with your teachings and shall never act contrary to the rules of the Anuvrat Movement.
-We repose our trust in you/ Meghvansh Community (Kanana)
Acharyashree has touched thousands of villages during his footjourneys. Lakhs of rural folk have come into contact with him and many of them became free from addictions. The work of character development and moral training which cannot be accomplished even by spending crores of rupees, gets easily done through these journeys of Acharyavar.
Pilgrimage
Acharyashree believes that man himself is the greatest place of pilgrimage. All the places of pilgrimage have been created by his inner power. Acharyashree has travelled far and wide in order to awaken man's inner power. Therefore, his journeying in itself is a pilgrimage. He has also been to many places of pilgrimage. From this point of view, too, his travelling is a pilgrimage. He has been to Pt. Nehru's new places of pilgrimage-Mythan, Meenakshi Dam,, Jhumri Tallia Dam, etc. He has also been to the ancient places of pilgrimage-Devghar, Prayag, etc. He has also visited the Buddhist places of pilgrimage like Sarnath, Bodhgaya and Nalanda. He also spent many days at the Jain places of pilgrimage, like Rajgrih, Sammed-Shikhar, Abu, Ranakpur, Palitana, etc., Acharyashree has also visited the modern places of pilgrimage— the Hindu University at Varanasi, Shanti Niketan, Sanskrit University, Government Library, Bhandarkar Research Institute, Madras University, Delhi University, Annamalai University,
