In one of my dreams Bhagavan appeared and asked me, "Will you choose a writing career or Self Realisation?" I replied in the dream that I would choose Self Realisation. After this dream, people who had read my published stories used to ask, "What are you writing nowadays?" When I answered, "Bhagavan told me to stop," they would look at me in disbelief.
I continued my sadhana at home. If Bhagavan had not guided me through my dreams during that long period (before I moved to Arunachala permanently in 1950), I would have gone astray many times and would have been deceived by many.
