The family of Chandra Mohan De lived next door to Lahiri Mahasaya<\/strong><\/a>. On completion of his medical studies in 1873, Chandra went to see the master to ask for a blessing. Lahiri Mahasaya<\/a> questioned him throughly on several subjects, and the young graduate was thrilled to have the chance to show what he knew.<\/p>\n

\n

\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 “And what is your medical definition of death?<\/em>“,<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

he was asked curious.<\/p>\n

Chandra answered the best he could, whilst Lahiri Mahasaya<\/a> listened; there was a twinkle in his eye.<\/p>\n

\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 “That is all well, but perhaps you should examine me, and tell me if i am alive or dead<\/em>.”<\/p>\n

A straightforward examination rendered the young medical student speechless. He could not locate a single pulse or heartbeat, and there was absolutely no sign of any inhalation or exhalation<\/em>.<\/p>\n

\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 “Should you not give me a death certificate now?<\/em>“,<\/p>\n

inquired the enlightened Yogi, letting renewed interest in emphasizing that aspect.<\/p>\n

Chandra was confused and, suddenly, a thought occurred:<\/p>\n

\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 “I could give you death certificate, but a dead man cannot talk<\/em> – and you are talking!<\/em>“<\/p>\n

\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 “That is quite true. But i wanted you to see that your modern medical science is limited<\/em>. There is a <\/em>hi<\/strong>gher knowledge<\/strong> which is out of reach, except to yogic practitioner<\/em>.”<\/p>\n

It was a day which Chandra Mohan De was never to forget. He became successful in his field as a doctor, but in addiction he became a disciple of Lahiri Mahasaya and a Kriya Yogi (yogic practitioner).”<\/p>\n
