A three-day shibir was being held here for children and teenagers. Everyone, including Swamishri and the sadhus, were staying on site. A photo session had been arranged in which individual photos of all the sadhus with Swamishri were being taken. When Aksharjivan Swami's turn came, he requested Swamishri to wear a pair of chakhdis. Swamishri refused, saying, "I don't normally wear them. So why should I do so now, just for the sake of a photograph?" But, due to everyone's insistence, Swamishri eventually agreed.

However, his one statement had revealed his true nature - that he was unwilling to be deceitful or hypocritical.
