“Please Live Forever.”

In an exuberant mood, Syamsundara Prabhu, the temple president in Houston, wrote me, “Thank you, Maharaja, for your divine presence in our lives. How fortunate we are to have you among us. Please live forever.”

Reflecting on Syamsundara’s words, I thought of Srila Prabhupada’s statement “I will never die. I will live forever in my books, and you will utilize.” And I took what Syamsundara Prabhu wrote as a confirmation that I should continue focusing on writing the history of Srila Prabhupada and Juhu—a book which Prabhupada himself requested.

Please bless me.

Hare Krishna.

Yours in service,
Giriraj Swami
