Query about the use of a source: The last line or paragraph -
Like many ascetics, Pavhari Baba's life is shrouded in mystery. His death is rumored to have been caused by his own hands, when he was near 100, while other sources have him dying peacefully in his cave.
is sourced to Ken Orr's:
(1993) The Ramakrishna mission lights the lamp of knowledge: A critical review of the educational enterprise of the Ramakrishna mission. South Asia: Journal of South Asian Studies Volume 16, Issue 1.
I am not clear how this is connected. Can anyone help? (Msrasnw (talk) 11:37, 27 July 2012 (UTC))Reply
