Saying of Swamishri

April 3, 1984, London. Peter Snowden, a freelance photographer had come to the temple to see Swamishri. Vivekjivan Swami asked him, “Would you like to ask any questions?”
“I have this opportunity but I don’t know what to ask, “Peter replied somewhat confused. “I am really honoured. I am a Baptist and it is really odd for me to come to a Hindu temple.” Then he stared at Swamishri for a few moments and said with exhilaration, “Swamiji’s eyes! They’re fascinating! His eyes are wonderful. I cannot look into his eyes.”
Peter took a few photographs of Swamishri, particularly clsoe-ups of the eyes. Then with traditional British manners, he meekly asked, “Can I touch Swamiji?” Swamishri just watched on innocently as the Englishman carefully stretched out his hand. Peter later had a photograph taken of himself with Swamishri.
When he left the room, he was shaking his head in disbelief. “The experience was mind-blowing! My mind was silenced, He seems very peaceful and calm. I can’t describe him. Whether my boss will pay me or not is immaterial. I have gained a personal experience. Tomorrow I’ll go to church and in our meeting when we are asked of any special experience I’ll talk about Swamiji.”
