Dear Devotees,
Please accept my most humble obeisances.
All glories to Srila Prabhupada.
With deep sorrow in our heart we announce to the vaishnava community the passing away of His Holiness Sridhar Swami at 6:10 am, on this most auspicious occasion of the Appearance day of Srivas Pandit, in the Holiest of all places Sri Mayapur Dham. His Holiness was conscious and looking at all the Deities pictures and Srila Prabhupada's pictures while he left His body.
His Holiness was feeling not so well yesterday during the night. When I saw him a few days ago, speaking by phone with HH Radhanath Swami, he confirmed to me that he would like to go to the west again to preach since he is feeling better now. But Krsna Has other plans for His Holiness. Yesterday I posted the picture of Maharaja receiving the World Excellence award from the hands of HH Bhaktiswarup Damodara Swami for his preaching and service to his beloved Gurumaharaja Srila Prabhupada. I will be reporting the whole day all the incidents. I just received a call that
His Holiness is a very fortunate devotee since He could be in Mayapur during the Sri Panca Tattva Deities installation as Krsna fulfilled His desire to be with His Godbrothers and Godsisters and all the vaishnavas in this important festival and during the Gaurpurnima festival, Leaving the body in Mayapur is only for the most fortunates souls since they for sure go back to serve the Lotus Feet of Sri Gauranga Mahaprabhu and the Panca Tattva Bhagavan.
Few days back i gave one poster to Maharaja of Him garlanding Lord Nityananda during the installation ceremony after abhisheka, and he told me that it was the most astonishing and best picture of him doing any service to the Lord and he especialy wanted to bath Lord Nityananda, His Holiness also has an amazing and very beautiful deity of Lord Narashimha deva that i will send later on the picture to all of you to have darsan of His Deity as once He told me that He wanted all the devotees to have pictures of this Narashimha Sila and have darsan of The Protector of the Devotees, May Lord Nityananda and Lord Narasimha dev shower their mercy and protection on His Holiness.
We hope devotees would chant extra rounds for this ocassion which in fact is a very auspicius day since it is the appearance day of Srivas Pandit as we mentioned earlier.
HH Jayapataka Swami gave instructions by phone regarding the ceremonies to perform and trying his best to come from Rajamundri which is 7 hours away from the nearest airport (since He is with the South India safari tour). We hope his desire to be here with His dear Godbrother will be realized in case flights and connections are possible.
Your servant
