Baba
It is with much sadness that we convey news of the mahaprayan (death) of one dear margii boy who fell off of the roof of his house. He was just 17 years of age, studying in class 12. It is a tragedy that his mahaprayan occurred at this young age - his life was too short.
The boy was the youngest son of Shrii Shivpujanji who has been living in Delhi to work with the radio station. He brought his family to Delhi along with him - that was where the accident happened. Prior to that Shivapujanji and his family were living in Patna.
Yesterday - August 16 - the boy was on the roof of the house when he lost his footing and slipped from the roof. He fell all the way down to the ground. This untimely mahaprayan brings sorrow to all as the boy was a good margii, a learned student, a trusted friend, and a loving son.
His cremation happened today on 17th Aug Wednesday at Nigambodh Ghat, near ISBT, Delhi, India at 2.30 pm.
Once again it is with a heavy heat that I share the news of our young brother's mahaprayan. As mortals there is little we can do now. May our dear boy find eternal peace and solace on Baba's divine lap.
Very sincerely,
Manindra
* Mahaprayan (Death): Many are aware that mahaprayan (death) is the common term used in India and especially in Bengal to describe the death of an honoured or even ordinary person. In that way the newspapers of Bengal are regularly citing the mahaprayan (death) of various persons of society who died or passed away.
Some may get confused and wrongly think that the word 'mahaprayan' death) is one extraordinarily devotional term to be used in association with Parama Purusa. But that is not at all the case. Rather to do so is only to undermine the eternal presence of Parama Purusa. That is why no devotees ever use the word 'mahaprayan' in reference to Lord Shiva or
Lord Krsna. Because Lord Shiva and Lord Krsna exist eternally. Then there is no question of Their mahaprayan (death).
Those who think that Baba is a mortal human being celebrate "mahaprayan" on a particular day of the year, but in the true sense Baba is Parama Purusa so He is eternal and there is no question of His mahaprayan.
And for those who need still more technical proof then all this can be clarified quite readily by referencing the dictionary. Specifically in the Samsad Bengali-English dictionary on page 742. Checking there it will be confirmed that the word 'mahaprayan' means death. Which is why it used to refer to the passing away of even common citizens.
