The happenings which brought me more close to myself are two fold. First my visit to Tirupati. For quite some time before this trip I was advised to read “Autobiography of a Yogi”, even I saw this book a couple of times, however I was not inclined to purchase or read it. But on this journey to Tirupati, I was lucky to get a copy at the Station Book stall, by the time we reached the Devasthan, I had gone through major part of the book and the words there in by Paramhansa Yogananda were already creating waves in my mind. The experiance of standing in the DARSHAN que for about 3 hours and the view of the diety for about a minute also made me more inclined to devotional and spiritual mind frame. The best part of this trip came when befote the return journey, my father bought me some more books. While handing those books to me he said, read this & you will find answers to most of your questions. This was the collection of various books by Swami Vivekananda. These books took me to where I belonged. I leaned the basics of life and religion from these books.
