Once as he failed to reach Vadtal during a festival, Pragji Bhakta came to Sarangpur in search of Swami. At that time the Swami was at Khambhada. With great difficulty Pragji arrived in Khambhada. The Swami became very happy to see Pragji Bhakta because at that very moment he was thinking of him. Under the pretext that he felt hungry, the Swami asked one of his attendants to bring some bread. He took a piece and then gave the rest to Pragji Bhakta.
Next day early in the morning, Swami set off Sarangpur. Swami broke his journey and got down from his cart near for Narayankund to answer a call of nature and perform ablutions. While Pragji Bhakta was pouring water, Swami told him in private, "Pragji I am over flowing with jnan but I have yet to find a worthy person to receive it."
Seeing the mood and love of Swami, Pragji Bhakta said, "Swami, can't you give that jnan to me?"
Swami replied with a smile, "It can be given only to a valiant soul who has control over all his senses and is prepared to surrender himself completely to me."
Pragji Bhakta took Swami seriously and resolved to be worthy of the Swami's blessings. Swami also saw in him a worthy disciple and blessed him.
