So, one fine morning, I left home. I had no money in my pocket. My only belongings were the clothes I was wearing\u2014a cotton shirt, trousers, and a pair of sandals. I quietly sneaked out and went to an old temple of Lord Shiva, near the river in my village, as the chosen spot to begin my holy journey.<\/p>\n<p>When I arrived at the temple, I was delighted to see a group of <em>aghori babas <\/em>resting at the temple. I hadn\u2019t seen aghori babas hang around at the temple before, and I took it as a sign of approval of my decision from the Almighty. All day I hung around this group and I noticed that an elderly person was their group leader, and everyone else took directions from him.<\/p>\n<p>By late afternoon, the leader called me to him. Despite his fiery appearance\u2014locks of hair and blood-orange robes\u2014when he spoke, I was surprised by the affectionate voice concealed behind his gruff exterior. When I went closer to him, without asking anything, he said, \u201cDear son, go back home.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>His voice had enormous confidence and regret. I looked into his\u00a0eyes, and they were drowned in sorrow. He said, \u201cI have been an ascetic for fifty years and I cheated myself. I have not achieved anything spiritually; now I am a beggar roaming the streets from one temple to another. Even if I wanted to, I could not go back home now. Everyone at home has forgotten me. And suppose I did go back, for all these years of asceticism, I have nothing to show for it.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>I listened to him quietly. He paused for a minute and looked out toward the river. Then gathering himself, he said, \u201cSon, I can see your search is genuine. Go back home and serve your parents. This is not the way for you.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div data-type=\"_mgwidget\" data-widget-id=\"1675549\">\r\n<\/div>\r\n<script>(function(w,q){w[q]=w[q]||[];w[q].push([\"_mgc.load\"])})(window,\"_mgq\");\r\n<\/script>\r\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I wanted to get away from all distractions and focus all my energy on self-realization.
