i know one incident of his last day in this world that aacharya srila prabhupada heard krishna's voice that 'someone gave me poison,krishna told me'..it is not clear that it was krishna's voice or krishnadasa..but he is a pure devotee of krishna so it can be lord's voice. is there any other incedent(s) happened in which srila prabhupaada got darshan of lord krishna?sorry for weak english.Hare krishna !!

First of all dont make any unnecessary,not proved and childish comments like poisoning Srila Prabhupada.It is an offense towards the devotees who served Srila Prabhupada dedicating their life and soul.No one can poision srila prabhupada who is a pure devotee of lord.The allegations are false and baseless.
Regarding this question,
A neophyte puts more stress on seeing the lord,But hearing the pastimes of lord and chanting his holy name also as good as seeing him.Because his form,qualities,name are non-different.A pure devotee is always in contact with supreme,because he is submerged in love of god.
"Before Srila prabhupada went to America he was staying with one indian disciple. One day at midnight,this disciple heard mrudanga sound and came out of his room to see what is happening in deity room. To his surprise he saw Srila Prabhupada dancing in ecstasy and playing mridanga. He also observed a flower garland around Srila prabhupada's neck.
Disciple : Swamiji ,why are you dancing and playing mridanga in the midnight and where this flower garland came from.Who gave it to you.
Srila Prabhupada : I was chanting hare krishna and feeling some love for krishna.So,krishna appeared in front of me and garlanded me with this garland.then,he disappeared.
So,pure devotees can see krishna face to face without a doubt.
Please associate with good devotees to understand krishna and his devotees in reality.Don't associate with people who speak all non-sense like poisoning Srila prabhupada.They are offenders to srila prabhupada and his dear disciples.
Yes why not Srila Prabhupada would get darshan of Lord ? Though one will never reveal that he got darshan but according to books of acharyas one can know that from later stages of asakti one gets darshan of Lord.
Srila Vishwanath Chakrabarty Thakura states in Madhurya Kadambini when explaining the stage of asakti:(The stage from when one starts getting darshan of lord)
“When ruci related to devotion attains paramount maturity and the worshipable Lord becomes one’s object (visaya), then it is known as asakti, or attachment. This asakti appears as clusters of buds on the desire creeper of bhakti proclaiming the swift appearance of bhava-flowers and prema-fruits. ruci has devotion as its object, and asakti has the worshipable Lord as its object. This characteristic is mentioned just to show the predominance of the respective objects in ruci and asakti. Indeed, ruci and asakti both have devotion and the worshipable Lord as their object. There is a difference in being immature or mature. Asakti cleans the mirror of devotee’s heart in such a way the reflection of the Lord suddenly seems to be almost directly visible there.“
So it is certain Srila Prabhupada had darshan of Lord. In the television series Abhay Charan by HH Bhakti Charu Maharaj . There is an incident while Prabhupada got heart attack while he was leaving India and Lord appeared and revived him. He also told Prabhupada that success is awaiting there in America.
