Monastery
Maitreya is lying in bed. He is surrounded by devotees. Two young boys have their palms joined as they stand before him. One of them says a prayer.
People approach him one at a time to take his blessings. Mr Mehta, the book-seller comes up to him. His voice sounds muffled. Like it has travelled the length of a pipe, it is shallow and distant:
Mr. Mehta
(In Hindi; Subtitled)
Sir, please tell me...
Do we really have souls?
Maitreya's eyes appear to roll back. His lips are chapped. Physically, he has completely deteriorated.
MR. Mehta (CONT'D)
Sir, please tell me...

(In Hindi; Subtitled)
