Then, with the blessings of his Guru, he left Munger and traveled the length and breadth of India as a parivrajaka. On the last lap of his parivrajana, Swamijee reached at Puri, he holy abode of Sri Jagannath, the Lord of the Universe. He prayed in the spirit of “Atmano mokshartham jagat hitaya cha”.
