[Advaita-l] Passing away of a Mahatma - Sri Rangpriya Mahadesikan

[V Subrahmanian]

Madam

Nice to hear those words from you on the Swami.  He used to be a frequent
invitee at the Sringeri Shankara Matha, Bangalore, to preside over a
function or address the gathering.  This was some twenty years ago.  A
venerable person indeed.

regards,
