Dear snow,
I agree with you. During his first visit, he had several questions.
But in Sri Bhagavan's Presence, he could not ask any of them. Only in later days, he started putting his questions. For many questions,
Sri Bhagavan kept mum. For some other questions [which were genuine doubts] He answered them briefly. You will be surprised that he lived with three or four cups of tea on most of the days. He was prepared to sacrifice his cozy life and wanted to remain with Sri
Bhagavan. But destiny had different designs for him.
First he lost his usual sleep. But he did not mind it. Later he developed fever due to Asiatic summer and he had to decide to
leave. He left. But he again came back after some time. The tiff between him and the Administrator of the Asramam, started to blow fully only after the release of the book, My Search in Secret India. If he had decided to stay put, with no ambitions like writing books, he might have stayed with Sri Bhagavan and would have
had full gulp of Sri Bhagavan's wonderful teachings. However, it did not come through that way.
Arunachala Siva.
