Revealed Supremacy of Maharaj:

On the second day of Fagun Vad in the S. Y. 1916; the idol of Shri Harikrishna Maharaj was ceremoniously installed in the temple of Junagadh at the hands of Raghuvirji Maharaj. After that, Swami accompanied by Acharya Maharaj, arrived at Vadtal via Bhavnagar. After celebrating the samaiya of Hari Navami over there he went to Aniali near Vagad. Motabhai Atmanand Swami who was the disciple of Ramanand Swami was living there at that time. He was 116 years old. He was very glad to meet Swami He asked a question to Swami why Maharaj was not taking him to Dham. Swami explained to him that there must be some lack of understanding in realising the true identity of Maharaj. After that Swami basing his talks on Vachanamitram talked about the supreme identity of Maharaj as the supreme incarnation, as Purushottam Narayan, and also added that it was not possible to obtain the privilege of worshipping Him without becoming one with Brahman. After hearing these words of Swami, Atmanand Swami was convinced about the true identity of Maharaj and about the glory of Swami. When both the sadgurus settled down for meals Atmanand Swami demanded prasadi from Swami's dish. Swami replied, "The river Ganges cannot flow in the reverse direction." It was a practice with Swami to take prasadi from the dish of Atmanand Swami. So Atmanand Swami said that till that day, he had unknowingly given him prasadi from his dish, but now he had realised the true glory of Swami. Within a short time after this incident, Atmanand Swami left this world.
