Sridhar Swami Report from Vancouver

[Guest guest]

Hare Krishna,

 

PAMHO AGTSP

 

I just wanted to send a quick report from Vancouver Canada the place of

Sridhar Swami's physical and spiritual births.

 

Yesterday evening for our Sunday feast program, we held a memorial service

in his honor.

Sridhar Swami's mother, his sister, her daughter & husband were also in

attendance.

It was reported that they all appreciated very much the service which

demonstratred the love and appreciation that not only the devotees here in

Vancouver have towards Sridhar Swami but also so many devotees throughout

the world as well.

 

The previous Saturday evening just a few hours after Maharaja passed away,

we utilized an already previously scheduled devotee home program to have

Kirtan in his honor and the Sunday morning SB class was also related to this

grave event by having the class on the Passing of Haridas Thahur in the

Antya Lila of the Chaitanya Caritamrta.

 

At the Sunday evening memorial service, apart from reading different excepts

from some of the many emails posted in PAMH, we also spoke about different

aspects of Sridhar Swami's life, his dedication, his character etc:

 

Different god-brother's and god-sister's as well as other devotees also took

the opportunity to express their own appreciations and realizations

regarding Sridhar Swami which was then followed by prayers, kirtan and a

prasadam feast.

 

By the mercy of Guru and Gauranga it was an excellent program appreciated by

every one present even though it was related to such a sad occasion knowing

that the world will no longer have the wonderful association of such a rare

and exalted Vaisnava.

 

Sincerely your servant in Srila Prabhupada's and Sridhar Swami's service,

Jaya Govinda dasa
