What is the deeper, spiritual meaning behind Maharaj's decision to stop giving medicine and instead offer Udi while chanting 'Hari Hari'?

The transition from administering medicine to giving Udi and chanting 'Hari Hari' signifies a profound evolution in Maharaj's spiritual methodology for healing. As explained in Chapter 0, Maharaj's own words reveal the core of this shift: "I used to give medicine to people before. Later, I stopped giving medicine and started saying 'Hari Hari', and while saying Hari Hari, I met Hari." This statement implies that he moved beyond treating just the physical symptoms and embraced a more holistic, divine approach. The act of chanting God's name ('Hari Hari') led him to the ultimate union with God ('met Hari'), suggesting that the true source of all healing is the divine. The Udi, or sacred ash, then became the physical medium through which this divine grace and healing power were transmitted to the devotees.
