It is his own experience
All this is his own experience, and what is most surprising
is that it is also my own experience. It is my sadhana which he
has described. Each object, each event, each realisation, all the
descriptions, even the colours are exactly what I saw and the
words, the phrases are also exactly what I heard. And all this be-

of inconscience, even in the neighbourhood of death, endured
the sufferings of perdition, and he has emerged from the mud,
the world-misery, to breathe the sovereign plenitude and enter
the supreme Ananda. He has traversed them all, these realms,
