Prabhupada Festival, May 30

Jayapataka Swami, Bhakti Charu Swami, and Giriraj Swami

At the Prabhupada festival in New Dvaraka, Los Angeles, His Holiness Jayapataka Swami, His Holiness Giriraj Swami, and His Holiness Bhakti Charu Swami spoke on the theme of “Srila Prabhupada in India.”

“In Mayapur, Srila Prabhupada was staying in a straw hut, which is still there. At that time it had only a dirt floor covered with cow dung. It was very simple, very basic. Toward dusk, I entered. Srila Prabhupada was sitting alone, with no light on. He had tears in his eyes, and his voice was slightly choked. He said. “Krishna is so merciful; He is giving us all facility.” – Giriraj Swami
