Ramana Maharshi didn't just tolerate the animals hanging around his compound; he treated them like equal colleagues. When his absolute favorite cow, Lakshmi, finally passed away, he ensured she was given a full, highly formal burial complete with a specially built memorial tomb. She remains the only bovine to receive full executive honors in his community.
