Before his death when my guru told me: “I’ve taught everything I know.” I was practicing 14 hours a day. He died in January 1987. After his death I was so much inspired that I was practicing 14 to 16 hours every day. I was practicing, practicing, practicing. The thought began to grow very strongly in my mind that there are still some missing links in the high practices. That feeling grew and grew and grew and I was disturbed with that: from whom will I learn these missing things? There was nobody to discuss them from that level – unless a person is advanced to that level you don’t quite even discuss these things. And that made me very bad. I was feeling disturbed, even a little bit depressed. Then suddenly a chance to visit Benares came. And I visited Benares. It was the 1st of April.
