Singing


"I could not embolden myself to sweeten the recitation with my music.  Baba had once warned me against any such brashness.  One night while I was descending the steps with His blessings for a series of "dances" (speeches) in Assam, He called me up again, and in a half-serious whisper debarred me from encroaching onto the territory of song.  "Dance!  You do not sing.  Those who come to hear will flee!"

(As narrated by Prof. N. Kasturi in "Loving God")
