The new born baby does ‘kevvu’ (onomatopoeia word in Telugu for baby’s wail); the dying person, as a result of his experience of life, must do navvu’ (laugh in Telugu). The baby wails, since it does not know its name, its Reality; the dying man must laugh, since he should know it. He must die happy, that his life-work has been accomplished. Koham? (whom am I) – the question with which he emerged into the world has been answered; he knows: Soham (I am He). He is born ignorant; dies a jnani. (SSS Vol. 6, p. 91)
