Dr Subramaniam, a renowned heart surgeon of Lenox Hill Hospital, New York, who had performed Swamishri’s by-pass surgery, arrived for Swamishri’s darshan. Swamishri blessed Dr Subramaniam, and the senior sadhus honoured him with a garland. Dr Subramaniam said that Swamishri looked well and bright. He also advised him to eat daily, which Swamishri has not been doing for many months.
