On July 4th, 2020, the world has lost one of its most inspiring spiritual leaders, Bhakti Charu Swami, to COVID-19. The shock and the loss made thousands of his followers numb, while others expressed their pain by posting their appreciations of their beloved master, or friend, on many different forums around the globe:
"The vacuum felt by Bhakti Charu Maharaja’s departure is immense. And that is how it should be. These feelings of separation are the proper testimony to Bhakti Charu Maharaja’s life—so exemplary, so well lived." (Bhadrinarayan Swami, San Diego, CA, USA)
"You touched so many hearts from coast to coast, just as you did in Europe, India, and everywhere." (Kalakantha Das, Gainesville, FL, USA)
"The sweetest person I have ever known." (Pragosh Das, Dublin, Ireland)
"Although we know intellectually from our philosophy that the 'soul is eternal and never dies,' we cannot deny the sadness we feel when a devotee departs." (Indradyumna Swami)
On Thursday September 17th, Bhakti Charu Swami’s 75th birthday, a team consisting of Bhakti Charu Swami's disciples, admirers as well as professional filmmakers, have launched a documentary film project with the purpose of celebrating Maharaja’s life and to present the impact he made in the world to a large global audience.
