2. Vishoka Dasa: And now, dear bhaktas, this was Jayananda's final gesture
of love and sweetness, and total disregard for his body. It came the time,
as it always does, when one is forced to leave, and finally I had to go. I
had no idea then that it was the last time I'd see him. I said my good-
byes and turned to leave, walked away a little and turned back, to my
horror, to see Jayananda getting out of his bed. I knew what he was
going to do. I protested, I told him to stop that nonsense and get back in
the bed where he belonged. He would not listen to me. He sat up, got out
of bed, came over to me, and bowed his weak body down to the floor, his
head touching the floor, asking me to accept his obeisances. Such
sweetness and love! Such tears now, when I remember it! Such disregard
for his body! We paid obeisances to each other, and hugged.
