“In Dev Prayag I came upon a man whose character is forever engraved in the slate of my memory,” says Radhanath Swami in The Journey Home.
On a chilly morning, as the stars were fading and the new day’s sun about to emerge, Radhanath Swami scrambled down a mountain to the place the rivers Bhagirathi and Alaknanda converge. From the point of this confluence the river is called the Ganges. The river’s song there was tumultuous.
Ignorant of the power of the current, Radhanath Swami submerged himself there for a bath.
