Master gave Karthi some breathing exercises, a meditation practice. He learned very carefully and eagerly and learned them fast. Master with those exercises went deep into his mind that he was an element of divine power and told him to view from that state of mind. As soon as he said that he was able to feel a thrill in his soul from the beginning so for a while he was able to keep that fact well in mind. It was as if a huge power zone was forming inside him. He felt a great deal within himself. The master understood it as soon as he saw his face. Having this speed in the beginning is only possible for a few.
He told him what he felt. He nodded. He immediately said, "Master, teach me the next lesson."
He said. “Look at how long you can stay in this state of mind after you go home. You should not tell anyone anything I have said. Always remember that. Explaining and discussing this practises is all about wasting your energy. Go and train and come tomorrow ”
He nodded to say yes. He bowed to him and left. He sat in his room at home and did the exercises and remained in that state of mind. After a while the mind began to catch on. Harini called at that time.
"How was your lesson?"
"Fantastic. The master had told me not to say anything to anyone about the practices.”
“Don’t say, fine. Remember. If you renounce the worldly life to become a sage, I will kill you. ”
"Okay, don't say the same thing and kill me now. I'm should practice now. ”
“I think I should come with you to learn. Let's practice together. ”
“For the God’s sake, don’t o anything like that"
“Good boy. Always maintain this fear" she concluded with a smile.
His mind refused to let him train again. Said some reasons for that. One way or another he repeatedly pulled the mind and fixed the mind in training and in that state of mind. He did not leave the room for the rest of the day. Came out just to eat dinner. He kept his speech as low as possible while eating. He also finished talking to his friend as one of his MP friends called at that time to help him always stir his mouth. Didn't bother his brother. Mom just kept forcing him to eat well and eat more. She didn't talk much about it either. Her focus was on her eldest son talking on the phone. Karthi came back to the room started practicing again. At night the mind calmed down again and the thoughts began to melt at one point. He had a very quiet deep sleep.
When he woke up the next day, Karthi felt refreshed and full of new energy. He went to the master and told him his experience. He smiled softly.
"Okay master teach me the next lesson." He asked eagerly.
“If you pass the first lesson, then I will start the second lesson. You did not pass in the first lesson. Not yet ”
“What are saying master?” Karthi asked intently.
"With whom did you talk to yesterday?"
"I have talked with Harini and my mother for two minutes. My mother talked about eating healthily. I have reduced my talking and came here after practicing. But Master, you are saying that I didn’t pass in the first lesson. ”
“What you have done in the beginning is an achievement. But it is not enough. Sitting in the living room and feeling calm and energetic is no big deal. Did you say you talked to Harini for almost two minutes? How long does it take for the mind to come back to the way it used to be? ”
“Two hours”
“After talking for two minutes, if it takes two hours for the mind to be in the state it was, I can’t say you have passed in the first lesson. Go back. Be your usual self with the family members. Look if the mind stays in this peace and power. When it stays, go to college. Do your job as usual. See if you can stay in the state of mind I told you about, all you have to do in your regular life is to focus your mind and start to stay in the same calm and with the same energy that you passed first class. Then the next lesson, the next class. ”
Karthi looked at him in astonishment. He smiled and his smile lengthened.

Senthilnathan inquired at Jaisalmer and many others about that piece. Only two of the hundred and eight people who spoke there knew what he was saying. They said that like Sadanandagiri Swamiji, that Bakri was a man who would not stay anywhere permanently. Three-quarters of the others were unaware of the Fakir. The rest identified themselves as powerful people. Visit to them resulted in disappointment.
An old man wearing a large turban, who had been watching many inquiries from a distance, came near when he got bored and sat down to drink tea in a street shop.
"Why are you looking for that Fakir?"
Senthilnathan's instinct told him that he might have known more about the Fakir when he saw the man. Senthilnathan told a heart touching story of the old man.
“My mother had a strange illness that could not be cured by modern medicine. We have every metho in modern medicine. But to no avail. That's when a friend of mine from Rajasthan told me about this Fakir. He said that if you enchant by hand and buy something amulet it will definitely heal. Someone he knew were healed. That’s why I came here. But no one here knows where he is. ”
There was tenderness on that old man's face. "During these days, the elderly are often left at the old age homes. There is very little people who does take care of their elders like you. I know where that Fakir is. But that Fakir will not come out in broad daylight. He will come out at night. ”
Senthilnathan said curiously. "It's okay, I will go and see him at night. Tell me the place”
The old man said of a desert area sixty kilometers away. "The last bus there will leave at six in the evening. The taxi can go too. But taxis do not go over at nine o'clock at night. That’s the part where the wind blows a little weird. Fakir will be out there at ten or eleven o'clock. It's a place where you cannot come back until in the morning, ”
Senthilnathan folded his hands respectfully and said, "I'll go and see. Just tell me how and from where to go. ”
