According to a report by a leading news daily, Ramphal Rana wanted to explore himself and Indian religion, philosophy, and spirituality. His passion to learn more about the subjects inspired him to study further and he decided to do an MA in Philosophy from IGNOU.</p><p class="story_para_1" id="1" style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; font-family: "PT Serif", serif; font-size: 18px; line-height: 26px; margin: 0px 0px 15px; outline: 0px; padding: 15px 0px 0px;">Sant Ramphal, who turned monk in 2009, is a resident of Bahadurgarh. After retiring in 2000, he left everything and took the path of spirituality. He was one of the oldest students to get the degree during the 35th convocation of IGNOU. He was, however, unable to attend the convocation ceremony due to his health condition and distance.</p><p class="story_para_1" id="1" style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; font-family: "PT Serif", serif; font-size: 18px; line-height: 26px; margin: 0px 0px 15px; outline: 0px; padding: 15px 0px 0px;">This isn’t the first time the monk has achieved something bigger in life.
