AUM BABAJI NAMA! - Kriya Babaji Nagaraj

A couple of days later he was drawn into the exalted state at 6 am. The luminous lotus with five
petals appeared at the middle of the trunk and gradually rose. The number of petals became seven
and split up into three groups. Two groups (of) three petals each rose along the sides of the face
while the seventh went straight in a line with the nose. All of them reunited at the crown,
Sahasraara 1 , to form a complete lotus. All the while there was a distinct buzzing sound in the ear.
Meanwhile the surgeon had come to examine him, but V.T.N. was helpless. It was an involuntary
experience which lasted till 9:30 am. The kind doctor, obviously urged by an invisible divine source,
took it in a nice way and came again a few hours later on his way to the nursing home.
Vedagiri’s school fees were long overdue. After waiting patiently for hours the good boy left without
disturbing his father in the trance state. Strangely enough, for his sake, all the boys were allowed to
pay their fees later. Needless to add, V.T.N. rightly saw the invisible working of Babaji’s grace in
these acts of Providence. The author casually suggested in the evening that V.T.N. may be chosen to
spread the gospel of Kriya in South India where it had not gained ground.

Really it had not spread anywhere as it ought to. I have been trying to get at you all these months
and, oddly, now your are ’susceptible’.” The Voice was vibrating with the sweet emotion of love. “I
have decided to use your pen for the cause. You will have to write two books. The first will be
‘Mysticism Unlocked’ and the other ‘Kriya, the Masterkey to All Ills’, a title which you will like as a
journalist. Or you may change it to ‘The Master Key to All Ills’. (Kriya)
“Others can tap only initiates, whereas I can tap even outsiders. I have been tapping two Kriya
Sadhakas 2 for you. One you know well. The other is a lady at Adyar who has a lot of money and does
not know what to do with it.” V.T.N. interrupted, “What is her name?” Sternly the forefinger was
raised, but the whole form of the Divine Master had yet to be seen. He continued, “She is still
dabbling with tantric 3 practices. The message has not been received properly. Anyway, she has got it
