Describe the conversation between the sannyasi Vijayananda and Swami Somdevji in Shirdi and its effect.

πŸ“– Chapter 31

In Shirdi, the sannyasi Vijayananda met Swami Somdevji of Haridwar. As recounted in Chapter 31, Vijayananda inquired about the journey to Mansarovar. The Swami's response was discouraging; he described the destination as five hundred miles away, through areas with heavy snow, changing languages, and significant hardships for outsiders. Hearing this news directly from the Swami's mouth had a negative effect on Vijayananda. The chapter states that he became dejected, his mind grew distressed, and he was immersed in worry about his pilgrimage.
