Rikhi Ram & Sons

 Shri Nathji and Priya Nath went to a famous music shop in Connaught Place, Rikhi Ram & Sons. It was from this firm that Mahamateshwari had purchased her harmonium years ago in Lahore. Shri Nathji wished to present a harmonium to Priya Nath for the coming Birthday of Shri Babaji Bhagwan.
On the evening of January 8, 1981, as they entered the music shop, Priya Nath noticed that there were parallel mirrors on two opposite walls of the shop. Shri Nathji was standing between the two walls inside the shop.
And lo and behold! There was a sight the likes of which had not been seen before upon the planet earth.
Shri Nathji was seen reflected an infinite number of times in each of the mirrors. It was as if Shri Nathji had multiplied his personality to form a countless number of Nath’s in both directions! It was a heavenly sight that was too beautiful to describe in words.
Shri Nathji was in his bright yellow silk turban, dark glasses and a face with a divine glow that was like the sun, the smart-fitting, green, woollen achkan of Mussoorie, white woollen chooridars, and black shoes–multiplied in millions of images on both sides. It was as if Shri Nathji had multiplied his images to reach far out, to the ends of the Universe itself. 

The proprietor of the shop who did not know Shri Nathji, developed an instant respect for him. Priya Nath thought he looked incredibly like the sitarist Ravi Shanker. He showed a harmonium to Priya Nath. The moment Priya Nath ran his fingers over the keys of the harmonium he liked the sound. Shri Nathji also said that the sound was perfect. And thus the harmonium was bought for nine hundred rupees. It was Shri Nathji's grand gift to Priya Nath–one that marked the beginning of a new and beautiful phase in Priya Nath’s life with Shri Nathji.
