AN EMPOWERED SOUL

[Guest guest]

Dear Devotee's,

Today is the disappearance day of our Grand

Prabhupada HDG Bhaktisiddhanta Swaraswati Thakura, so it is only

befitting to pay a tribute to the ray of light from Vaikuntha who

dissipated the deepest darkness of ignorance.

 

To craft anything adequately about a "

SAKTYAVESA AVATARA " who is extremely dear to KRSNA LORD is beyond my

comprehension but nonetheless I make this feeble attempt knowing that my

inadequacies will be forgiven.

 

The glories of Grand Prabhupada is unlimited, a

whole dissertation by itself is not enough let alone a small article, so

here I will confine myself to one small aspect of his greatness. During

the time Prabhupada graced this planet he had to fight many battles from

all sides. The country was mired by the dark forces of Kali Yuga and most

caste Goswamis were utterly disqualified to set any new direction for the

welfare of the population in general. Caste Brahmanism has degenerated

into professionalism for livelihood and they were in no place to

enlighten anybody about the knowledge of the personality of Godhead. At

this juncture Srila Prabhupada did what only an empowered soul can do,

acting directly on behalf of KRSNA he awarded Bhahminical status to

qualified persons who were not born in Brahman families.

 

Prabhupada Bhaktisiddhanta Swaraswati

established this practice strictly in accordance with the teaching of "

HARI BHAKTI VILASA " by Srila Sanatana Goswami to carry out the mission

of Maha Prabhu and by this action he became the modern father of

Brahmanism which is avilable to all qualified people of all lands. Even

though there are significant opposition our Prabhupada also followed in

the footsteps of his Gurumaharaja and awarded true Brahmanism to people

of all lands. This was absolutely necessary so that the divine prophesy

will be fulfilled.

 

Maha Prabhu have predicted that in every town

and village in this world his glories will be sung and it is not

difficult to see who HE has choosen to carry out HIS mission. Maha

Prabhu's desire will be done and it will be done through the choosen ones

whose seed have been planted by our Prabhupada's.

 

Remembering my grand Prabhupada on his

disappearance day and all that he has done for us and the world, I mostly

humbly prostrate myself at his lotus like feet. YS, Ashokamrita.
