Sri Thakur Sitaramdas Omkarnath has written- ‘I visualized the
five-faced Shiva, standing with Trisul in right hand and Damru in left
hand…
I asked Him- ‘Who are You?’
Shiva said- ‘I am Your Guru. I came earlier in Your childhood, You didn’t recognize Me at that time. Thus, I have come again.’
I said- ‘If You are my Guru, then show Me My Ista.’
Shiva started to chant My Mantra, and a Motherly figure appeared from His left shoulder.
I asked- ‘Who are You?’
She said- ‘I am Your Mother’… and thereafter, She took My radiant soul
in Her lap and continued to utter IstaMantra... Guru [Shiva] danced with
the chanting of IstaMantra, which gradually became ‘Ram Ram’, and
thereafter ‘Om Om…’

Sri Madhav Swamiji explains- “A mysterious event
occurred in this darsan. Thakur had prayed for IstaDarsan. The
GuruShakti is the Power which fascilitates IstaDarsan… Even Mahavirji
was given Gyan by SitaDevi, as per Raam’s advice. Even here, Maa
[GuruShakti] appeared to fascilitate Thakur’s Istadarsan. And what did
She do? She didn’t give the vision of any separate Deity. She showed
Thakur’s radiant soul to Thakur. Thakur’s Ista is ram, and there was no
separate RamDarsan, as Thakur is Ram Himself --Jagadguru Shiva showed
this explicitly. Moreover, Shiva continued to chant RamRam, to prove
that Shiva is Ram’s Guru, and Shiva’s Guru is Ram!! Thus Shiva danced
and chanted RamRam to reveal- ‘Oh Ram, You have come in this Form.’
Shiva revealed this so clearly, that we have no scope of any doubt…”
