Sugata Bose, my (Swami Sampurnananda) facebook friend, says: I had met
Revered Swami Mukhyanandaji many times at the Arogya Bhavan in Belur Math
whenever I paid a visit to Swami Tattwasthanandaji (Bibhuti Maharaj) there.
We exchanged pleasantries. I have seen him counseling devotees with great force
of conviction as if they were his very own. The earnestness was very evident
from the way he addressed them, somewhat like 'the Uttam Vaidya' of The Gospel
of Sri Ramakrishna. I feel saddened by this news of his demise, if may use the
term with apologies, because of my acquaintance with him which brings back
memories far earlier when I had wondered why he sported a beard, as also for
the fact that these venerable souls were associated with so many luminous
beings of the Order under whose radiance they attained to luminosity themselves
and that they are departing, one by one, impoverishing us for good unless we
learn to live by the precepts they lived and taught. My humble prostrations at
Maharajji's hallowed feet!
