Dear Prabhus,
Please accept our humble obeisances. All glories to Srila Prabhupada.
It is our great honour and pleasure to announce the success of the First Annual Srila Prabhupada Glorification Festival at Sri Sri Radha Damodar Mandir, Vrindaban, India, on the auspicious disappearance anniversary day of His Divine Grace A.C. Bhaktivedanta Svami Prabhupada.
The festival went on without a hitch in spite of the protests of both their holinesses Narayana Maharaj and Puri Maharaj, who personally came to Radha Damaodar Mandir with the intent of stopping the ritvik initiation ceremonies.
The Gosvamis who manage Sri Sri Radha Damodara Mandir are very dedicated to Srila Prabhupada and had no other desire other than to see Srila Prabhupada glorified.
Although the Maharajas’ threatened to never come to Radha Damodara Mandir again if the initiation ceremony took place, the Gosvamis nevertheless held fast to their decision after consulting with senior Prabhupada disciples like Vishnu Murti Prabhu.
His Holiness Kapindra Maharaj performed the auspicious ceremony in front of the Bhajan Kurtir and Samadhi of Srila Rupa Gosvami. Five new disciples of Srila Prabhupada, from all over the world, were initiated with ecstatic kirtan followed by a wonderful prasadam feast.
This is a milestone in the push to reinstate Srila Prabhupada as our sole diksa guru.
Hope this meets you all well and happy in Krishna’s service.
Your servants,
Visvamitra das
