The Naren was very eager to see God face to face. He asked many religious stalwarts about his desire in the past, but none could satisfy him. Now this god-man of Dakshineswar said to Naren that as one can see him, he can also see god in the same real form. The Naren was not convinced with his words. He wanted the saint to prove it to him.
