Shri Tripathi had seen the Divine Being in Shri Nathji and looked upon Him as Lord Rama incarnate. Shri Tripathi would prostrate full length whenever he came before Shri Nathji. He was a scholar of the Ramayana and a saint held in high esteem by many. Yet, he had such reverence for Shri Nathji that he would not hesitate to prostrate before him even in the presence of his own disciples.
