Can someone enlighten on what is the understanding about master Guru Prabhupada's soul state? Do we believe he reached Goloka or do we just not talk about it?

Brilliant reply , Bhaktin Maral Mataji!!! I was not cognizant of the fact that Krishna massaged Prabhupada's heart. Can you please describe this divine pastime in details???
Once devotees were walking with SP and asked prabhupada about his svarupa. Then SP answered very humorously as always he does. He said, I can say who I am but you won't believe that so to know who I am come back home soon!!!
Hari bol!!!
Guru is not an ordinary Person. He is not a person of this world. He comes from Spiritual World in order to bring back fallen souls. In this way it is even an offense to be suspicious that Srila Prabhupada, to whom Krishna personally came and messaged his heart when he was on Jaladhuta, did not attain Goloka Vrindavan.
Your servant,
Hare Krishna prabhuji!!! I was going through a lecture of one of the saints of ISKCON(I can't exactly remember his name). It was about Prabhupada. He was a confidential devotee of Prabhupada and he mentioned that Prabhupada was in Sakhya Bhav(fraternal devotion). And Prabhupada's love for Krishna knew no bounds. He Himself states," There has been no moment in my life when I haven't thought of Krishna". Such an exalted devotee should be in Goloka, there is no doubt about that. But Prabhupada was so merciful that He was not at all concerned about His own liberation. He said, ' So far as I am concerned, in relationship with my disciples who are so kindly cooperating with me in the matter of my rendering service to my Spiritual Master, for them I am always ready to come back from Goloka Vrindaban, if they are not delivered along with me. So don't be worried about the clutches of Maya. Be fixed up in your determination and go on serving the Supreme Lord, Krishna, with determination as you are already doing.'Srila Prabhupada is our destination. He awaits our arrival in the kingdom of God. If we fail, he will come for us.
Hare Krishna Sharanagat Prabhu,
It is widely believed and accepted amongst learned souls that Srila Prabhupada was Rupa Manjari who had come down to earth for this mission.Common souls who are materially millionaires cannot build even a single temple in this world, unless they are blessed.Srila Prabhupada literally had no money in pocket, and was 68 years old when he came to USA and he built over 108 temples across the globe. Some food for thought...
So we know that he was originally from Goloka.Did he/she go back there, or went to another planet to spread the mission..is something which only Krishna knows...
Thanks for clarifying Bhaktin.
Hare Krsna.
HK pr,
Srila Prabhupada never revealed his swarupa. He knew that if he would reveal it , other people will fakely imitate it and speculate on their own swarupa.
Srila BSST and BVT revealed their swarupa.. BSST was kamala manjari.
Srila Prabhupada was undoubtedly empowered soul sent by K himself to spread glories of Lord, So wherever Srila Prabhupada is, He always carries the consciousness of Goloka.
