DRAKSHARAMAM

This is not the place for easeful living; yogis, who look upon adversity and prosperity with equanimity alone can stay here and attain emancipation. So it is better for you to leave this place at once, lest my incensed Lord will torture you with further tests. Better go to Draksharama - the Bhogapuri where Bhimeswar is lifting devotees without ordeals. Mere faith in Him fetches bhoga during the earthly sojourn, and blissful emancipation after death". Convinced with the advice, and regretting his folly, he at once left Kasi and reached Draksharamam with his disciples, numbering 300. And started adorning the Lord with due devotion. The Lord too showered on him all the needed for continuance of his literary career and teaching profession uninterrupted, and what is more, with redoubled vigour. He enjoyed the company of Agasthya, who came here earlier on a greater mission. It is quite fantastic and reveals his extra-ordinary spiritual powers.
