Remembering Srila Prabhupada - He wants me to live

[Guest guest]

August 13

 

 

This morning when Prabhupada awoke, I sat behind him

on the bed, lightly massaging his back. Then I asked,

"Srila Prabhupada, what have you been thinking of the

past few days?"

Prabhupada understood my question perfectly and

replied, "I have been thinking that if I have to live

for six months, until February, 1978, why not die now?

Parikshit Maharaja had only seven days."

"But the astrologer said you could live beyond the six

months," I encouraged.

"That depends on Krsna's desire," Prabhupada

countered.

"Do you have any indication whether Krsna wants you to

live?" My head was very close to Srila Prabhupada's

back, and I waited with bated breath for his answer.

"The indication is that He wants me to live."

I could not check my crying when I heard this, and I

murmured, "That is wonderful, Srila Prabhupada."

"This movement is revolutionary. All over the world I

have enemies; and there are friends too. They wanted

to say God is dead."
