from Mountainrunner: from The Moth and the Flame, by Arran Stephens, p. 291-292 (Chapter 38):
"Mataji [Sant Kirpal Singh's wife] returned to her eternal abode on April 3, 1970. Her frail form had suffered from cancer for about four years. On this subject the Master afterwards remarked: "Many people who have experienced this sickness have suffered greatly and have screamed aloud with the agony that it causes, but with the grace of God, through having direct contact with Him within, Mataji was spared the pinching effects.." Eventually Mataji was unable to get around anymore, and while the Master was on tour in the latter part of March, her condition worsened. On March 30 (1970) the Master asked her if she was ready to leave and she replied, "Yes, in three days." The Master thought for a moment and then said, "Well, three days, that means April 2nd - and I will be very busy that day (due to the commemoration of the death anniversary of Hazur Baba Sawan Singh). The 3rd would be better, in the early afternoon, say 1:30 p.m. I will be more free then." At about 1:00 p.m. on the third it was noticed that Mataji's condition had become very serious. When told about Mataji, the Master said, "I know it." The Master went to Mataji and looking down at her very kindly, asked, "Are you prepared?" She looked up and said, "Yes." The Master said, "Are you sure your heart is absolutely clear - with no hatred for anyone?" She replied, "Yes, I have nothing against anyone in my heart." The Master asked, "Then why are you not smiling?" With this, her face..began to glow with joy. Ripples of laughter came forth and she looked radiant with happiness. Taking hold of the Master's hand she said, "Forgive me, if I have ever done anything to offend you." The Master smiled compassionately. She said, "Both forms are here - I am seeing you outside and inside." The Master said, "All right, now close your eyes and relax," and with these words he returned to his room. Within ten or fifteen minutes, Mataji had left." Kirpal Singh afterwards remarked, "she is more alive now than ever."
