Dear SLakshmi,
Yes. Such things happened in His Presence. Such things also
happen even today. The weeping, the non-stop talking [one
Pandit did that by talking about Upanishads for 10 days. He
became quiet on the 11th day.], the 'sucked in' state of manolaya
with no activity [Jatini Sundarambal], barrage of questioning [Paul
Brunton], suspicion whether one's progress in self enquiry is correct
or not [Major Chadwick] -- all these happened in His Presence and the
devotees were finally quietened after realizing the Truth.
Arunachala Siva.
