H H Sridhar swami had darshans of Panchttavta

[Guest guest]

To all Vaishnavas, PAMHO AGTSP.

Just about 4 days before HH Sridhar swami left for his divya

lila and join srila prabhupada.I witnessed an incident which I wish to share

with all Vaishnavas.It was about 7.40 pm and I'm serving as a pujari in

panch tattva alter.my service is to dress the srivas pandit and I'm under

training how to dress srivas pandit under direct supervision of HG

Janannivas prabhu.I had the darshan of maharaj by paying dandvat pranams at

his lotus feet.Maharaj was concentrating with deep prayers at the panch

tattva.at that time only HG Achutananda prabhu (his servant) was with

maharaj.At this point, I noticed that Maharaj did not have any garlands.so I

rushed to the alter, to see if any garlands were there in the jewellerly

room .To my surprise I found only Srivas pandit's garland.I recognised the

garland as srivas garlands are tied at three points(Knots).So quickly I made

the garland into one piece and rushed to Maharaj.He was overjoyed and with

his usual style asked me, Why I was still in Mayapur.I told maharaj that I

was learning how to dress Srivas pandit.and was interested in deity

department !!So to please him, I asked him how the turban of srivas pandit

looks or suggestions !!! I was so excited that maharaj would say superb or

excellent!but after a smile he said TERRIBLE !!! He smiled at me and asked

me if ever I had an artistic taste !!.I had no answer but my face was full

of different expressions. He said" look Nandkishore, your job is to get

cement and steel and finish the project in mira road and cultivate big

people in mumbai then you join the mayapur project.He also told me that I

should work very hard and train under HG Devakinandan prabhu (TP

Vrindavan)and cultivate big people .He looked deep into my eyes and kept

staring at me for quiet a while and offered the garland back to me.I had no

choice but to accept maharaj's word and I humbly accepted his final

blessings to me. HH Sridhar swami lived in mira road for many years in HG

Haridas's flat.we had lots of maharaj's associations.Just then HG Hari sauri

prabhu walked in and I offered a chair to HG Hari sauri prabhu so that he

could accompany maharaj till the dieties take rest.HG Hari sauri prabhu

refused the chair and humbly sat at maharaj's lotus feet.at 8.30 pm we

offered all the garlands from the small dieties of panchttavta to maharaj.he

walked so happily and in complete control he left as if he was in a hurry!!

This is the last time I had a darshan of maharaj.

Everyday, we pujari's offered as a priority, garlands to HH sridhar swami

different devotees come and take garlands to offer to Maharaj .

On Srivas appearance day,Maharaj left his body and I just couldn't believe

what had just happened !!I narrated the whole incident to HG Pankajangri

prabhu because it was just biggest surprise to my spritual life.He told me

he was with maharaj an hour ago before maharaj's depature and had gone to

invite maharaj for the Srivas appearance day and also gave maharaj a tulsi

leaf from lord Narasimhadev.Maharaj had a huge smile when HG Pankajangri

prabhu placed the tulsi leaf in his mouth and returned to the lord

Narasimhadev's alter.HG Pankajangri told me that everthing,everymove is

controlled by the supreme lord Krishna .HIs Holiness Sridhar swami maharaj

ki jay !!! Maharaj,first had srivas pandits'garlands and then tulsi leaf

from lord Narsimhadev and leaving for abode of the lord on srivas

pandits'appearance. His Holiness Sridhar Swami Maharaj Ki Jay !!!!!
