the time one reaches the 16th circle he is almost free from egoism and the condition here is almost inconceivable. It has been rarely attained by even the greatest of sages and as far as the vision of the Master goes it is only Saint Kabir who could have secured approach up to that stage. What remains when one has crossed this circle is a mere identity which is still in gross form.
The Master states that Lord Krishna had given His Virat roop Darshan to Arjuna during the Mahabharat war from the Virat region of the Sahasra –Dal- Kamal (thousand petalled lotus) which the aspirant passes through before reaching the Mind region. The Sahasrara is the macrocosm and the aspirant begins to experience to some extent a changeless condition which may be called Brahmagati or State of the Divine. The Master emphasizes the indispensability of Pranahuti from the capable Master who has crossed all stages to the aspirant for performing the journey in a part of his lifetime through the circles described above, each of which has innumerable points and knots having their own particular conditions.
The march now leads us into the Central Region where we find seven rings of something called ‘light’ by the Master for the sake of expression.

As pointed out earlier it is the total negation of the individuality feeling and the creation of a consequent vacuum which will be filled by the Divine and utilized solely by the Divine without any impedance from the part of the individuated soul for the expression of the Divine and the fulfillment of the purpose of the Divine. Such a soul has nothing to be called its own and its will is totally subordinated to the Divine Will. It becomes at this stage of total negation, the ideal vehicle or instrument in the hands of the Divine to be used entirely for the purposes of the Divine as the Divine deems fit. The Master Sri Ramchandraji is a perfect example of this state which was so totally owned up by Him that it became the Stage, the Ultimate Stage which all the abhyasis under PAM aspire to get into through the grace and help of the Ultimate Power, the only God and Power, again the Master Himself, as expressed through the Prayer given by the Master who has also become verily the Goal of life itself. Now the person is in close harmony with the Real condition. The Master however says that complete merging with the Centre is not possible in order to maintain a nominal difference between God and soul.
Knots
We had referred earlier to ‘knots’ discovered by the Master and located in the human frame which have to be loosened and transcended on the aspirant’s
