Guest guest Posted June 30, 2002 Report Share Posted June 30, 2002 Bhagavan used the walking stick not due to old age but from His prime of youth, after coming to Arunachala itself. His Total, Fulfiling, Spiritual Expereience of Death at Madurai had caused this need for a stick as also the shaking of His head. Bhagavan explained this by quoting the analogy of a huge elephant entering into a small tent. What would be the condition of the tent thereafter! Bhagavan's body was thus really shattered. Even in later years He could walk briskly but He could not stand for even a few minutes; He could stand only with the help of the stick firmly rooted in front of Him, like a tripod. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Perushottama Ramana ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
