AYAN BADE FAREWELL TO RADHA
ASKED MOTHER JATILA TO GO TO PRABAS

For me, I was born as a human being, who was surrounded by all kinds of illusion that was created by our senses in this physical world. I was thus kept blind about what you are.”
“I am very repentant that I took you to be my wife. I have used many harsh words and expletives to you. I am sure I will be punished by Yam after my death.
