         He was Shankaracharya’s Advaitism
         In its concrete form.
         Where there is Advaitism,
         The traveller becomes the path,
         The person becomes the goal,
         The doer becomes the action;
         The same way,
         There was no duality
         Between Sangh work and Vakil Saheb,
         He lived for others
         But never displayed it.
         He says,
         It is for everybody’s happiness.

     Raja Rantidev said –
         “Na twaham kamaye rajyam
         Na swargam na punarbhavam.
         Kamaye dukhataptanam,
         Praninam atirnashanam.”

     (You should not desire for throne, nor heaven, nor rebirth,
desire is the source of suffering and leads to destruction.)

         He too lived and fought without desire for anything.
         Life is like music in a way.
         If the string is loose, there is no tune.
         If it is too hard, it is still useless.
         Music is created
         When tune and pitch are in harmony,
         Voice and melody are in consonance,
         Tune and instrument are coordinated.
         Vakil Saheb’s life was like music too.
         Its mystery lies just in it.
         Controlled, well-formulated, coordinated.
         He enchanted our hearts too.
         Such a divine life took rest on 15 July.
         He bid farewell to a body named Lakshman,
         But in the heart of everybody sitting here
