Nirmani - What is the context of this quote:

"Here, whoever serves is the Mahant"

Once, while Swami was busy sweeping the temple floor, the Mahant of Tarnetar arrived and asked where he could find the temple’s Mahant. Swami humbly replied that the Mahant would be seated inside. After washing his hands and feet, Swami went to the assembly hall to meet the guest. Surprised, the Mahant of Tarnetar asked if he was the same person who had been sweeping the floor. Swami smiled and said, “Here, whoever serves is the Mahant.” 

In today’s world, a Mahant sweeping the floor might be seen as beneath dignity or an insult. But for Gunatitanand Swami, this was never an issue, because he had no desire for maan.
