It is fascinating to observe how Sri Yuvacharya Mahaprajna' s most thought-provoking and breath-takingly lucid books come into being. At the appointed hour, a lean tall man with a calm, smiling face enters the hall where the shivrasthis are gathered to practise dhyana. After initiating them into the precise mode and conduct of the day's meditation, he takes up a pad and jots down a few points- an outline of the discourse he would deliver an hour later. All through his writing, he is aware of the passage of time, glancing at the clock every now and then and giving further instructions to the sadhaks. At the conclusion of the meditation session, he smiles at his audience and asks, "How did it go?" There is a short intermission for tea or lemon water and the great man returns and begins his discourse, without once looking at the pad on which he had earlier jotted down certain points. He speaks for nearly an hour in fluent and chaste Hindi, At the end of the discourse he answers questions. He does so every day for the duration of the shivir. At the conclusion of the shlvir, a new book is born, for it is his daily discourses duly recorded which are later edited and printed.
