One
day while Baba was talking to people at Haldwani Furniture Mart, he
suddenly became absorbed in deep thought and remained silent for some
time. Then he said faintly, "Pooran, give a spoonful of
water to drink. He is in great agony."
I could not understand what the matter was, but I nevertheless poured
two spoonfuls of water into Baba's mouth. After some time two tears
fell from Baba's eyes, and he said to me, "Ramana is no
more. India has lost a great saint today." This incident
occurred on the day that Ramana Maharshi left his physical body in
Arunachala.
