"During one of my visits [1940's visits to Ramana Maharshi] I was seated at some distance from Maharshi. There were many devotees in the hall and the usual silence prevailed. I remembered his injunction to "plunge the pure mind into the Heart"," and decided to practice it then. I gazed at him and he gazed back at me. What followed was indescribable. His body seemed a glas case from which a blissful brilliance streamed out. More than half an hour passed this way. It was an experience unique and unforgettable. It confirmed Ramakrishna's statement that spiritual experience can be transmitted from one person to another.,.." >From The Maharshi, newsletter of Arunachala Ashrama, page 7. Vol 20, No. 4.
