He was very sensitive to the spiritual states and was capable of expressing verbally and draw pictures of his experiences with the abhyasis very vividly. He was instrumental in recognizing and recording many points in the higher regions. He it was who noted the ruby color of the Chit lake of beloved Master Babuji Maharaj which was acknowledged as correct by the Master in the manual of service he gave to preceptors. He did work out other methods of performing the yatra of the abhyasis by adopting the anti-clock wise rotation of the point of self in the heart thereby unwinding the complexities one has built around himself. The Master in consultation with him and Sri Seshadri another close confidant of Dr.K.C.Varadachari named even the spiritual states of Prapanna, Prabhu and Prapanna Prabhu...
He gave talks on the system of Sri Ramchandra's Raja Yoga regularly at Tirupati after the Satsanghs on every Sunday. Dr.K.C.Varadachari's talks on the system of Sri Ramchandra's Raja Yoga carry a depth of understanding of the subject and deep concern and commitment to the persons to whom, they are addressed. In his own words, as recorded in his diary, his understanding of the system led him to remake himself in a new way. They were all published as books. The Complete Works of Dr.K.C.Varadachari Volume I, published by the Sri Ramchandra Publishers has all of them. He did give talks on all the books of the Master except the one 'Towards Infinity' for which he wrote the Foreword. From 1965 his work for the spread of the Sri Ramchandra Mission was his only purpose of life. He traveled frequently not minding his poor health and delivered lectures at Vijayawada, Hyderabad, Madras, Madurai, Trichy, Allahabad, Shahjahanpur and many other places. During this period he was reaching the pinnacle of spiritual evolution and has commenced Laya Avastha in Brahman on 21st Jan 1968. He got himself established in that condition on 15th Feb 1968 and has completed the process of Laya Avastha in Brahman on 26th April 1968. During this period he assisted the Master in preparing the Manual of Spiritual service and has suggested various spiritual methods on the Daya Sakti and Kaal Sakti methods of training. In an effort to present the system of Sahaj Marg scientifically he assisted Dr.V.S.R.Murthy, Reader in Zoology, S.V.University in writing the book "Neuro Physiological basis of Yoga" by providing him information and guidance based on his research in the Yoga Psychology of the Minor Upanishads.
However in 1968, he was invited by the Padmavathi Women's College to deliver lectures in Indian Philosophy and Culture, which he undertook as a service to the younger generation. In 1970 he was asked by the Sanskrit University to write a book in European Philosophy to enable them translate the same into Sanskrit. In 1969 and 1970 he conducted Preceptors seminars at Tirupati and published the deliberations. The Master considered them as very important and useful for SRCM.
Consequent to the deliberations of the seminar in 1969 and discussions Master had with him, a confidential circular was issued to the Preceptors/Prefects of SRCM where in clear guidelines were given regarding the spiritual work. To quote from the circular dated 24th feb.1970 "It must be noted that our purpose is not to fill the Mission with useless persons. It is our duty to help and train the hungry souls trying to produce hunger in others who are not still up to the mark. Those who are totally immune to spiritual life may not be taken into Sahaj Marg- this pious work of realization. The path is smooth but cannot be trodden by rough persons." "When it is very clear that the prospective member is more keen in the fulfillment of his worldly desires only and not in the higher spiritual values, he may not be admitted unless and until the preceptor is sure that the person, by his labour, will take the turn at some near future. The moral and spiritual development of the abhyasis must be in the view of the preceptor." Though Master felt this instruction was enough to rectify the defects pointed out to him, these were practiced more in breach, as already the tendency to popularize rather than propagate the system got established as the way to be followed in the Mission. Dr.K.C.Varadachari was a passive spectator to this trend and grieved more in his heart than expressed to others.
Dr.K.C.Varadachari himself was restless till the last day to merge in the Ultimate and while expressing his anguish, also stated that other senior abhyasis did not think he has attained oneness with Ultimate as stated by the Master. He has advanced in the path to such an extent that the Master observed in his letter dated 24th June 1969 " You have written that sometimes you feel absorbed seeking to move swiftly to the centre. There is no change at all in your state. It is a changeless condition as I say. A little bit of humanity is there as it ought to be and so you feel the difference. In the beginning your inclination was to reach the Centre, a tinge of it is still there so you feel seeking to move swiftly to the Centre. Nothingness or negation is your condition, which will itself disappear. The Master stated again in his letter (21st June 1970) to him that "I can say with certainty that you are in Absolute Reality without minding what my lady student has said." The last state of identity, which is bound to be there till the last day of Maha Pralaya as asserted by the Master in the book 'Efficacy of Rajayoga' was enough for him to feel restless to have mergence that is total.
The jealous and envious unable to accept that some one who came into the system much later than themselves should gain such progress started talking of him slightly. This however was rejected by the Master. Talking advantage of the talk of senior persons certain less advanced souls also, however continued to talk of his not reaching the Ultimate even after his demise forgetting the normal etiquette of not talking slighting elders and more so when they left the mortal coil.
He was not happy with the remarks made by the irresponsible and also the undue haste with which the organization of SRCM was sought to be spread giving away certain fundamental principles of spirituality. In his letter to the Master on 18th June 1970 he wrote " I fully realize that you require freedom from the organizational work for the sake of spiritual work. I trust everyone will cooperate with you. But I must utter a word of warning, if I ought not to be misunderstood. Let us not commercialize our Mission in out haste to secure financial stability for the Mission, and embark upon works which are not immediately helpful to spiritual development of the abhyasis. We have to imbibe the sense of Mission- Spiritual and not mix it up with other ends. If I am not to be misunderstood, I believe some things can be thrashed out with other seekers who also know about the deviations that take place in spiritual work. I trust you will not misunderstand me." His problem in sadhana was more serious. He wrote in the letter. " I had asked the question, why even in a very high state far above the circles or rings of splendour there is growth of resistance to the Ultimate dissolution or absorption or mergence." "It has of course grave consequences in our appraisal of the ultimate state possible under our system." However the reply from the Master on 21st June 1970 did not address the anguish expressed by the professor while asserting his status as being in Absolute Reality. It was clear to him the same problem that he faced with the T.T.D. namely promoting the penultimate and secular as superior to the spiritual, is recurring again and found himself too fragile to counter. All the great systems of the past lost their value because yoga was forgotten and their philosophies of knowledge and love were given importance. He was finding even in this new system the stress is being made on the concepts of love, remembrance and very many quasi spiritual ideas which are also prevalent in other systems and the uniqueness of methods of sadhana and methods of evaluation being ignored. He could palpably feel the lack of serious attention to perfect the system of evaluation and upholding the claims made by the Master. There was no interest to study and examine the claims of the Master regarding the various spiritual points like A, B and the locations of the various knots in the physical frame and present to the world the system as a breakthrough in spirituality. From his point of view the location of the various points and knots in the physical frame is the unique practical contribution of Master Sri Ramchandra Maharaj. His concern was spiritual renaissance but what he found was expansion of the secular and mundane however brilliant it might be. Marketing of the SRCM rather than spreading the spirituality as the Mission was perceived by him as a curvature that was developing and he found himself helpless to remedy or rectify. In a world that is dominated by the glitter and gold the gaudy takes the cake, leaving the barren spiritual that is tasteless, odorless, colourless and plain. Yet there are souls that seek to drink the nectar in the dreary waste of the Divine, devoid of all attention and ostentation. His service is available for those who seek spirituality and nothing else.
The last entry in his diary reads:
"O Master I pray to thee
To forgive me and remove
This last barrier between me and thee"
Let my love be complete
And my Non-Being Real!
Let me forgot thy words-
Let the ORGANISATION go as Thou wantest
Who am I, what am I?
Mergence in Thee is All now
Let it be the True Beginning.
He was suffering from Diabetes since 1961 and though he had the best medication available in those days, the disease overtook him and after about one and half month sickness he attained his Maha Samadhi on 31st Jan.1971 on the day Basanth Panchami, the most memorable day of birth of Sri Ramchandraji Maharaj of Fategarh,U.P. India.
Master wrote in a letter to K.C.Narayana on 11th Feb.1971 that " We have not prayed for his liberation, because it would have been very ridiculous for a man who has already attained liberation and can give the same to others also." He also wrote that Dr.K.C.Varadachari is his intimate. Those who move in the path of spirituality know that this word is used for Radha and Krishna and in similar conditions.
In the man who leaves a deep impression on the history of his race we invariably find rare qualities besides those of the mere intellect. All those who knew him then had seen in him the perfection of Intellect and Intuition coupled with impeccable Character. His compassion to other human beings in particular and all existence in general was something that every one wanted to acquire for himself. He was infectious and was carrying with him the seeds of Infinity wherever he went and many did acquire the symptoms of Divine Sickness due separation from the Lord.
