rla Nryaa Gosvm Mahrja: He did not appear alone. He took all of his associates. In the same way, rla Prabhupda appeared with his associates and very furiously he has spread mission of Caitanya Mahprabhu and Raghuntha throughout the whole world. rla Bhaktivinoda hkura made a plan that, like Gaurakiora Dsa Bbj Mahrja, like Rpa Gosvm, Santana Gosvm, we should follow them; but not totally like that. Like a mission. At that time Rma-Ka mission and so many missions were preaching everywhere; like a mission that we establish mathas in Mypur, in Vndvana, Vraja-maala, here, there in the whole world. And we will teach brahmacrs and sannysis the teachings of Caitanya Mahprabhu; and in this way we will train sannysis and brahmacrs and they will preach the mission of Mahprabhu throughout the whole world. One very learned boy, very qualified, perhaps you heard that he took birth in Jaganntha Pur and so many things; tulas mala and everything. He was very intelligent. He had a very sharp memory. He went to Sanskrit college and in a few years he told that, I have not come to learn from them, I have come to teach them. He left college and then Bhaktivinoda hkura thought, How will he earn his livelihood? But Prabhupda was not a man of this world; Bhaktivinoda hkura also knew this. Then rla Bhaktivinoda hkura bought the land in Mypur, Caitanya Mahprabhus birthplace, and there he made like a (sanctuary (indistinct)) for (indistinct), Viupriy Dev, Mahprabhu, (indistinct) and others. He discovered the house of Jaganntha Mira and ac-dev and they found Krmadev (Hindi aside) And thus during Gaura prim he met with rla Gaurakiora Dsa Bbj Mahrja. He used to come to Surabhi kua to meet rla Bhaktivinoda hkura and he used to sing, Gaurakiora Dsa, kothya go premamayi rdhe rdhe / rdhe rdhe go, jaya rdhe rdhe (1) dekh diye pra rkha, rdhe rdhe / tomra kgla tomya ke, rdhe rdhe (2) (r Gauya Gtiguccha Kothya Go Premamayi Rdhe Rdhe). Prabhupda has written (that) in his life, I have never heard (such) a pathetic tone. I was moved by his pathetic tone. And I felt (that) this person, though blind, he can not (even) sign (his own name) but he has realization of Caitanya Mahprabhu and Rdh-Ka. So, I must select my

Gurudeva like this. But Gaurakiora Dsa Mahrja has promised, I will not make any disciple. Then Prabhupda left eating and everything (else), (including) sleeping, and started to do (intense austerities to gain the favor of rla Gaurakiora Dsa Bbj Mahrja). And then Bhaktivinoda hkura was moved. And so told to Gaurakiora Dsa Bbj Mahrja, You have come to be merciful to all but how you are very cruel to this boy. Do you want that this boy should die? Then he told, I will ask Gaura-Sundara, let me ask. (The) second day (passed as well as the) third day (and) Bhaktivinoda hkura said, Have you asked? rla Gaurakiora Dsa Bbj Mahrja said, I forgot. Then he again asked why to see (indistinct) of that boy. And then (in) Godruma he initiated Prabhupda. He gave harinma and dk. And there are so many histories you will know. You know all these things. So, we pray to rla Prabhupda on his Brajantha dsa: Disappearance. rla Nryaa Gosvm Mahrja: this auspicious day he should be merciful to us that we can enter into Rpa-Raghuntha bhajana. Gaura premnande! Hari hari bol!
