The chapter
This chapter follows the Tarkhad family decades after Baba’s Mahanirvana and describes Jyotindra’s final illness in 1965. His family remembered him as a healthy and dutiful man who had raised his children and fulfilled his responsibilities.
When severe illness led to hospitalization, the family continued to give him the Udi Baba had given him. The account describes the anxiety surrounding Shravan Monday and the family’s effort to care for him with devotion.
The chapter is both a family remembrance and a meditation on how faith, duty, and Baba’s name remained present through the final phase of Jyotindra’s life.
