—Bhima

Prabhupad is a Pure Devotee of Lord Sri Krishna, and He is always engaged one hundred percent in the transcendental service of the Lotus Feet of Lord Sri Krishna. Prabhupad is one of the most confidential friends of Sri Krishna. He is in direct disciplic succession from Lord Sri Krishna. He is a bona fide representative of Srila Vyasadev, and therefore He is eligible for the Vyasa Asana, Because only those who are representatives of Srila Vyasadev can occupy the Vyasa Asana. All bona fide representatives of Srila Vyasadev in the right disciplic succession are to be understood as Goswamis, because such Goswamis restrain all the senses from being deviated from the path of the previous Acharyas. I offer my humble obeisances to Prabhupad who is always serving Lord Sri Krishna's Lotus Feet. I offer my humble obeisances to Prabhupad because he has so kindly let me who is so fallen take shelter of his Lotus Feet. I offer my humble obeisances to Prabhupad who never deviates from what the previous Acharyas teach. I offer my humble obeisances to Prabhupad who is always teaching by example.

Hari Bol!
