Prema

uring my last visit to Sridhama Mayapura I had the great fortune of getting the darsana of Srila Bhaktipramode Puri Maharaja. Now ninety-seven years old, he was an affectionate friend and godbrother of both Srila Sridhara Maharaja and Srila Prabhupada. Srila Puri Maharaja joined the mission of Srila Bhaktisiddhanta Saraswati Thakura in 1922 and has been an active preacher in Lord Chaitanya's sankirtana movement ever since. We discussed many transcendental topics with Srila Puri Maharaja and were very happy to see his mood of extreme reverence for Srila Sridhara Maharaja, Srila Prabhupada, the holy name, the Vaisnavas, and the teachings of Mahaprabhu. Most of all we were very touched at heart by his deep humility and gentle dealings.
