Guest guest Posted April 25, 2005 Report Share Posted April 25, 2005 Dear Friends, This is to inform you that our beloved President of the Ramakrishna Order, Srimat Swami Ranganathanandaji Maharaj, has left for Thakurs abode today at Woodlands Hospital, Kolkata. It was 3:51 PM when he breathed his last. His condition deteriorated today morning. His body will be consecrated to flames at Belur Math tomorrow at 12:00 noon. He was 97 years old and had been ailing for a long time. However he was above all pain and was fully conscious when a Revered Monk from Bhubaneswar visited him at the hospital a few days ago. He has not left us. He has temporarily shifted to an adjacent room and will shortly be back in a new body to lead the world again. Let us prepare for a saner world the sapling of which is beginning to burst forth from beneath the surface of the soil, thanks to the superhuman efforts of a great soul. On the brighter side, today Thakur had descended to earth to personally carry his illustrious son to his own abode. Regards, Jagannath.
