I would be in KURNOOL every month For about 7 to 8 days. And in those days, I would spend much time every day with “KURNOOL SWAMIJI”

I would buy cigarettes for him .. I would get snacks/tea for him .. I would take lunch to him…

Although there are so many devotees to take care, I would also offer my bit…

Sometimes, I am on Camp, and Swarnamala Patri would arrange to send lunch.

From the time of January 1st, 1981 to 1983 May 22nd, this was my routine in KURNOOL.

And, keep listening to him, to his life. We were only four/five really spiritual students – Myself, Ramachenna Reddy, M. Janardhan Rao, Venkataratnam, and Surya Mohan.

“KURNOOL SWAMIJI” never moved out of his old LODGE. He just walks from his small Room to the toilet room and come back and again lie on his small cot / bed . “KURNOOL SWAMIJI” voluntarily left his body On 22nd May 1983!

My 2 1/2 years of physical association with Swamiji ended on that day!
