“Nine years during My research means the wandering.”

Nine years during My research means the wandering. I wandered length and breadth of Bharat. At least 10,000 miles I walked. Traditionally we are supposed to walk and we see village to village and sit at the feet of many masters and learn. So your life is enriched. You learn from various dimensions. It’s like a each master would have done research and development in particular direction. When you sit at his feet and learn, you will learn the whole thing in few months. The whole experience is transmitted to you in few months. So like this you go round and learn. I had the fortune to be spending, to spend nine years in My search. Throughout that nine years, I did not work. I was supported by the Bharatn villages. I was given food, clothing, shelter with respect. I was never told I am a homeless. I was given food, shelter, cloth, everything with respect.

They will not give the food after they eat. They will cook and first give it to sadhus. Sadhu means he is a person who is wandering like this and studying, seeking. They will give it to him. Only then they will eat. Sometimes you will be surprised to see the hospitality for no reason in the villages of Bharat…. You will see miracles everyday. Miracles are not something strange for us. People getting Darshan, Vision and this materialization- all these things are everyday activity for us... So and throughout that nine years, I did not touch money. Did not touch money and did not store the next meal. That was the two vows you are supposed to take. No question of touching money. No question of keeping the next meal. You are supposed to beg whenever you feel hungry and eat, sleep wherever you feel like. Yes, somebody raised the hand here.
