Subramuniya in San Francisco and Phoenix; "Hansen is Dead"
S. Rajam
a. Driving one day in Phoenix, Subramuniya had an encounter with his inner voice. It instructed him to follow a convoluted route through a sprawling suburb, which he obediently did, only to be led, after two hours, right back to the beginning. b. In Denver in 1956 Subramuniya underwent a life-transforming spiritual experience during which his golden soul body displaced his outer self. Soon there- after Yogaswami, thousands of miles away, announced, “Hansen is dead.” c. One day in the late 1950s, Subramuniya experienced the reality of the subsuperconscious mind: taking dozens of pieces of paper on which he had written mystical aphorisms, he wrote a commentary on the blank side of each that corresponded perfectly. d. During the seven years of sadhana before his spiritual mission began, Subramuniya taught hatha yoga and dance to suppport himself.
