Paragraph 11

In plain words

Now the Master has come and sat down on the west verandah of his room. He is still in an ecstatic mood. Near him are Rakhal, M., Nakur the Vaishnava and others. The Master has known Nakur the Vaishnava for twenty-eight or twenty-nine years. In his first days in Calcutta, when he stayed at Jhamapukur and went from house to house performing worship, the Master would sometimes come and sit in Nakur's shop and spend happy hours there. In recent years Nakur Babaji would see the Master almost every year at the festival of Raghav Pandit at Panihati. A Vaishnava devotee, Nakur would himself hold a festival now and then. He is M.'s neighbour. When the Master lived at Jhamapukur he stayed in Govinda Chatterji's house, and Nakur had shown M. that old house.
