On 17 September 2021, James Ebenezer posted two videos on his YouTube channel as evidence of having "burnt the eight notebooks containing the second part of Aham Sphurana. It occurred to me—as I was in the process of destroying the eighth and final notebook—that people may not believe me when I told them what I have done. I have thus made this video as a proof that I am not bluffing." In early October 2021, his print-on-demand platform posted a message, "This title is not currently available for purchase."
What then is 'Aham Sphurana'? Who is James Ebenezer, aka Blutkeim, a demon? And is this really the last we'll hear of his bizarre fantasy fiction and his penchant for ambiguous pseudonyms?
He claims it is, "since nobody has shown much interest in even the first part, least of all the Ramanasramam authorities and the famous devotee of Sri Ramana mentioned in the foregoing paragraph, what, I felt, is the use of bringing out the second part?" Then again, he elsewhere warned, "Attempts to trace out my whereabouts, physical, electronic or otherwise, may be met with total hostility and may, according to my will, be interpreted by me as an Act of War, necessitating perhaps a fitting retailiation/retribution from my side."
A mystery wrapped in an enigma who has possibly been thwarted in his deceit?
