In 1991, the grand 31-day Cultural Festival of India was in progress in Edison, New Jersey. As part of the celebrations, the devotees of North America had arranged a special tula to honour Swamishri at the Raritan Center in Edison. The moment Swamishri entered the hall, he called Ishwarcharan Swami and asked, “Have you brought a murti of Yogiji Maharaj? Bring one right now.” Where could a murti of Yogiji Maharaj be found instantly? What does Swamishri want it for? Nobody knew.

Swamishri waited patiently for the murti. Soon, a framed murti of Yogiji Maharaj was presented to Swamishri. He was delighted. But the reason he had asked for the murti only became clear when Swamishri sat on the scales for the tula ceremony. Together with Harikrishna Maharaj, Swamishri held the murti of guru Yogiji Maharaj and sat humbly on the scales. That Swamishri’s service and devotion to God and guru flow naturally from his heart was clearly evident to all.
