Swami Rama [my guru]: "Finally the ruler prince recognized that I didn't care about his status, so he changed his attitude. When he came again he politely asked, 'Sir, may I please see your master?' I took him inside the cave, where my master was sitting quietly. That prince wanted to be polite and to show his manners and Western breeding. He said,'Sir, you seem to be lonesome.' My master said, 'Yes, because you have come. Before you came I was enjoying the company of my Friend within. Now that you have come I am lonesome.'"
Swami Rama, Living with the Himalayan Masters, pp. 54-55
