INT. MONASTERY - DAY
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...
