The Divinity that is Me has not been acquired or earned, nor has it been
added or evinced after the lapse of some years, in the middle of this life.
The Divine has to reveal Itself through these manifestations, largely
shaped and modified by the nature of the times, the region and the cultural
environment. The signs and wonders that I manifest are given names that do not
convey the purpose or effect. They can be called chamathkaara (that which is
inexplicable), that lead on to samskaara (refinement), which in turn urge one
on towards paropakaara (helping others) and finally result in saakshaathkaara
(vision of the divine)."
