Ahimsa

Our beloved Ahimsa left this body on Thursday, January 3, 2008 surrounded by family and friends.

I asked Sri Swamiji for Blessings prior to your departure:

Dear Kaliji

Jaya Guru Datta

I prayed to Dear Appaji for AHIMSA

and showed his photo.

Appaji took it to his hands and closed

his eyes for some moments.

Prayers were done.

Om

Prasadi

From Yogini Kaliji

To the Beloved Ahimsa

Your laughter and positive outlook on life inspired and touched
the hearts of everyone who had the blessing to meet you.
This gift you gave will continue to be a Light for us all.

I recall our first meeting when you were introduced as ‘Killer’.
Immediately, I called you Ahimsa ~ the Sanskrita name for ‘nonviolence’
LOVE shined from your heart so the name had to be changed
Of course, if the name ‘Killer’ referred to
the ‘killer of negativity’ then this is you too

The strength you demonstrated during the body’s illness is unsurpassed.
You spoke the Truth, you lived the Truth ~
the greatness of one is known in how they lived their life
and how they lived their last days.

I will never forget how you told me about the diagnosis with laughter in your voice.
No fear of death was in you ~ this is the great strength you embraced.
During the difficult treatments and further diagnosis,
you continued to be the embodiment of strength.
This fearless quality and acceptance of what is,
will continue to be told to the countless people I know…
who will have to face the body’s mortality at some point in this human life.
Your gifts live on ~

Even though you are greatly missed (and always will be),
I can be calm with your departure from Earth
as I know you are in the higher blissful planes ~
laughing, loving, living to the fullest ~ and at the same time inspiring everyone.
You are LOVED by me and countless others.
We will meet again and again ~ oh, Son of the Universe.
