Ajmer, July 1: A forty-five-year old man who renounced the world to become a 'sanyasi' found that he was often by his desire for worldly pleasures so much so that he tried castrating himself but ended up in hospital fighting for his life.
Kailash, a resident of Parbatsar block of Naguar district, was brought to JLN hospital here in a critical condition on Saturday after he tried to castrate himself late on Friday night. Doctors saved him by removing his genitals and made provisions in his skin for passing urine.
"He had tried castration all by himself and his condition was bad because of huge blood loss," a doctor attending Kailash said. Kailash was immediately taken for operation and doctors removed the whole of his genitals to save him, he said.
Relatives of Kailash and his children brought him to the hospital and police started investigating the reason of his act. "Preliminary investigations found that Kailash renounced the world since last five years and was leaving as a 'baba'," police said.
"But in the last three to four months, he was disturbed by his desire of worldly pleasures. He wanted to dedicate time for meditation but was unable to concentrate," Kailash's nephew told police.
Kailash's wife had died about seven years ago and after her death, he renounced the world to become a sanyasi. "He has two children but since he renounced the world, we were the ones who took the responsibility of bringing up his children," Kailash's brother said.
"He usually come back to the house only to talk about religion and spirituality but something seem to be disturbing him since last about 10 days. He usually remain alone and last night we found him in blood in his room," a relative of Kailash said. They rushed him to Ajmer and admitted him to JLN hospital.
