The Avatar's Pen
Baba writes in simple and elegant, colloquial Telugu or English prose. The message is always extempore, His ideas receiving expression as mellifluous poems and songs, showering exquisite delight. Poetry and melody shine through each sentence and behind each phrase and clause lies a form that is apparently human, but is suffused with Divine wisdom.
All the immortal pieces flowed from Baba's pen as articles for the Ashram magazine 'Sanathana Sarathi' (The Eternal Charioteer) During its early years. Prof. Kasturi, the first editor of Sanathana Sarathi, used to collect material from Bhagawan every month for the magazine, narrates the following remarkable experience regarding Bhagawan's omniscience and the innate simplicity with which Bhagawan wrote the Vahinis.
On Brihadaranyaka Upanishad
Prof. N.Kasturi, writes "Baba decided on a small book on the Upanishads, the Upanishad Vahini, in order to rivet the world to the efficacy of Vedanta. As the editor of the magazine, which published serially the chapters of this book, I had an amazing experience, every month. After dispatching the magazine on the 16th of every month, I would go to him for the next part of the series. Announcing the name of the Upanishad Himself, He would ask me to wait for a while in His room and proceed along the verandah with a notebook and pen, towards the room where stood a table with a chair by its side and nothing else besides.
Once, it was the turn of the Brihadaranyaka Upanishad, to be summarized and simplified. It is the biggest and the profoundest of the ten. I am certain that Baba had never read it or consulted others who could talk on it. And there was no copy available anywhere within miles. But forty minutes after he moved out with a pen and the notebook as His sole possessions, I could descend the eighteen steps from His room with a ten-page dissertation on the truths this Upanishad enshrined! I peeped into the script as I walked towards the press and my eyes fell on the Telugu words, which said, 'the grandeur of the intellect of Sage Yajnavalkya is impressively evident in this Upanishad'. I told myself, the grandeur of the omniscient teacher Baba is now impressively evident to me."
