“Prabhupada was now surrounded by devotees, and I brought out the photo package prepared by Ramesvara Maharaja, which detailed the magnificent observance of Ratha-yatra by the disciples in Los Angeles. Prabhupada became ecstatic seeing the bright, colorful photos, which were as good as a movie. As he examined each, he seemed to be diving deeper and deeper into an ocean of nectar. Of the photo showing hundreds of people waiting in line to see the doll exhibit, he triumphantly stated, ‘I told you so! Make this doll exhibit everywhere in the world.’ How perfect is the spiritual order: This doll exhibit was the idea of his Guru Maharaja. Now, Prabhupada executed it with the help of his disciples, and the results were tremendous. Prabhupada was so filled with emotion that he would not take his massage. For two hours, he remained sitting; then, without massage or food, he retired to bed.” (TKG’s Diary)
Jaya Jagannatha!
Hare Krishna.
