About this listen

A story from modern India about a sixteen year old boy who asked one question - and spent the rest of his life pointing everyone he met back toward it.

In 1896 Venkataraman Iyer sat alone in his uncle's house and felt a sudden overwhelming certainty that he was about to die.

Instead of running he lay down, went completely still, and asked - If the body dies - what is it that dies?

What he found at the end of that question he never quite put into words.

He walked to the great temple of Arunachala, stood before the Shivalinga. And said nothing.

Then he sat down.

And did not speak again for years.


New story every day.

Follow so you never miss one.
