Guest guest Posted November 14, 2001 Report Share Posted November 14, 2001 This incident happened during Sri Ramanas last illness. "Once the doctors were about to cut some tissue from the tumor so that tests could be done. When they were about to inject a local anaesthetic to dull the pain, Bhagavan refused and told the doctors to simply cut and take what they wanted. The doctors protested, explaining to Bhagavan that the pain would be severe without the amaesthetic. Bhagavan again refused and told them to just do it. They cut into the tumor and Bhagavan winced in pain. The doctors said: 'Bhagavan, we told you it would be painful.' Bhagavan replied: 'Yes, the body experienced pain. But am I the body?'" (Balarama Reddy: My Reminiscences, p. 106) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
