A person associated with a spiritual organisation as a frequent visitor recently chopped off his organ. Why would anyone do so? After the act he walked to the hospital and asked for help which indicates he did not want to kill himself. Why, then, did he do so? It still sends shivers up my spine when I recall the incident. Can anybody please throw some light on it.
