A Sadhu's Reminiscences of Ramana Maharshi
He copied this on a slip of paper, replaced the book and closed his eyes; later when he looked up the books had gone and he never saw the old man again. How they had gone he never knew.
When the Sannyasin returned later for Bhagavan's answer he handed him the slip of paper, which having read, he left him alone and went away, persuaded now that there was no need for any initiation.
It seems that the Sannyasin reported all that had happened to Sri Narasimha Bharathi, the head of the Math, who regretted the episode and told him, “Hereafter don't try to do such things.”
