—Anuradha Devī Dāsī

All Glories to the Golden incarnation of Mercy, the incarnation of love, Srila Prabhupad, whose smile is like a beam of brahma-jyoti; who is like Lord Chaitanya descended among us, dancing and dispelling the darkness of ignorance. By His presence sanctifying any place He passes through making it a place of pilgrimage even for the demigods. When I see Prabhupada dancing, playing kharatals, smiling and chanting, I see all the greastest demigods, saints and sages from all the universe paying respects by showering flowers down upon His Holy Head, for His Lotus Feet to dance on. And cows and peacocks dancing and playing and Gopis all singing and playing on mridangas and kharatals and Krishna Himself playing His flute and dancing with Prabhupada. Please let me take the dust of His Lotus Petal Feet and pay my obeisances to Him, Prabhupada, the pure devotee, the Golden incarnation of mercy, the incarnation of love, whose tears are drops of the Yamuna River.
