Once Swami Turiyananda was discussing spiritual matters with some young monks of the Order, when one of them said: Maharaj, now I have understood the way.
Swami Turiyananda asked: What is that?
The young monk replied: ˜To sit quietly on the mast of the ship [referring to Sri Ramakrishna's parable of a bird sitting on the mast of a ship on the high seas after flying in vain to all corners”east, west, north,and south”and not finding any resting place anywhere].
Swami Turiyananda quipped gently: ˜But when did you fly at all?
