Swamiji answers questions from the public through a live radio interview aired by the 'Siliconsolai Tamil Radio program'. He answered questions on Aethism, Religion and Spirituality. Amidst other
messages, He stressed the relation between one's mental state
and the happenings in the world. He said that while there
are various things happening in the world, depending on what
we tune our minds to, our own world takes shape. This he said
was the 'Power of Coincidence'. Swamiji's interview received
enthusiastic response in the form of feedback from listeners.
