I.
Thank you all for being here. It is a great spiritual therapy for Guru Maharaj seeing all of you and having the chance to always share with you the greatest pastimes of Sri Krishna Chaitanya Mahaprabhu and his associates. One of the main associates of the Panchatatwa and the Nike Ridda of Sinhaitanya Mahaprabhu is Riyadhway Kacharya. And we have the honor to have with us this night the 14th descendant of Sri Advaitacharya. All of you know him who have been in the most important festival for taking Prashad that is promising Krishna Prem. Lord Chaitanya says whoever takes Prashad during Shantipur festival in the house of Azetacharya he gets Krishna Prem. So Goswamiji is here Big Haribol to welcome him from Shantipur Rahipur.
Hare Krishna. Hare Krishna.
So here we have Prashantha Goswami, the 14th descendant of Sidad Acharya and Braja Ishwar Goswami, the 15th descendant of Sriadhar Doytacharya who wants to say a few words to all of you. We are very happy to have the association of Brahmaraji. Maybe the next Shaktipur festival will be the first one that Guru Maharaj may miss. So that's why they came here.
I can't. Everything saying in English.
In Bengali.
Says that my father is very closely related to Maharaj and more than that Srila Prabhupada. When he did not become Prabhupada at.
That time.
He used to come to Adoitopath frequently. He used to come in the morning and go back in the evening. Sometimes he used to take Krishadam there, sometimes not in this way. My grandfather saw him and one day asked him about who he is. At the time Chandragopad said what is his intention that he will be going after and preach the message of Krishna. After that my grandfather and Sri Prabhupada had a very good relationship and he used to come and discuss with my grandfather. Prabhupada paid roster obeisances to my grandfather and ask for blessings saying that please bless me so that I'm going to America and I will propagate in Krishna consciousness. My grandfather said that you are blessed by Kekara Mahaprabhu and I think that Mahaprabhu is that prediction that will be fulfilled by you type conscious of the Kache Tomar.
Thank you very much.
That this person who is in the part of fulfilling the mission of Chaitanya Mahaprabhu So his health should be kept intact. So that this message of Chetan Mahu will be spread and vision approval will be fulfilled.
