Baba
Dada Sarvatmananda has died
Namaskar,
It is with much sadness that we share the news of the death of Acarya Sarvatmananda Avadhuta. Dada ji's death occurred at 7:50am this morning at R.N. Tagore Hospital, Kolkata. Dadaji had been quite ill of late and was most recently treated in the ICU. He was around 80 years of age.
May we all take solace in the fact that Baba will lovingly bestow His infinite grace.
in Him,
Harideva
Note: Here is an alert for those cremating a dead body in India or Indian managed cremation homes around the world. Their custom is to put the fire in the mouth of the deceased to initiate the burning of the body. This is prohibited in AM as it is uncivilised. So watch out; do not allow this. If you are not careful, they will end up cremating the body in this manner. Make them aware ahead of time.
Ananda Marga Caryacarya states, "The practice of putting fire into the mouth of the dead body is repulsive, it should not be encouraged." (Caryacarya - 1, Disposal of the Dead Body)
