Rev. Vishnu Maharaj - Pooranwad’s nurturer & the worthy son of illustrious father
August 27, 2008
On the auspicious day of Vaishakha (the second month) bright fortnight and Uttara the twelfth lunar mansion (27th April, 1980) at Indore (MP) the retrograde Jupiter (also known as Guru signifying Master) was to be in forward motion. The Master had made some calculations with his fingers the earlier night as if ‘the day’ was fixed for departure and there was no need to seek further time from God. With the feeling of fulfillment that ‘God had assigned me four tasks and I have accomplished eight’; total contentment radiated on his face. At about 0100 am, the master asked for the holy water of Ganga and Tulasi leaves. Soon after the Master shifted his head from pillow to Sharad dada’s (Most Rev Vishnu maharaj) lap and the next instant the flame of life was merged one with the Purna (The Universal Person).
The Master-disciple meet (Utsav) at Parner of 1980 was pervaded by the gloom of the Masters’ departure. Nevertheless, in accordance to his wishes Adv. Vishnu Maharaj (Worthy son of an illustrious father) reached Parner after performing the thirteenth day rites of the Masters’ demise.
