Paramahansa Yogananda writes in his
autobiography that the state of health
of the liberated being cannot be used as a
measurement of his or her "degree of enlightenment".

I think that was a good idea.

Many saints have died due to violence or
illness, even if they may have known about
it on beforehand.
