Karandhara dāsa Adhikārī

I offer my most worthless obeisances unto the lotus feet of my spiritual master A.C. Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupada who is the ocean of mercy and the personification of all the Vedas. His only desire is to deliver all the fallen and ignorant persons from the bondage of maya and for this he prays to Krsna constantly and schemes day and night. Simultaneously, with the Absolute Truth as delivered by Lord Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu and Srila Rūpa Gosvami he vigorously strives to smash all the nonsense yogis, philosophers, scientists and assorted rascals. This is also his causeless mercy. How else will they all be relieved from the diseases of adversity to submission and service to the actual Supreme God? For these demons, Prabhupada is death, and havoc personified, so fierce and determined, with his ignorance-destroying dissertations which he tirelessly delivers from early morning till the late hours of the night, day after day. He will not relent or settle for one inch of compromise. Total acceptance of the Vedic conclusion and absolute surrender to Krsna's superiority and glory are his only terms. He writes volumes of literature, each one saying the same thing: surrender to Krsna; and he tirelessly pours his heart and soul into distributing this life-giving knowledge of Krsna Consciousness. He has no other thoughts or objectives, and cares for no other subject or topics than Krsna-katha. He always attacks the rascals with a kick on the face and he blesses the devotees with, "Come on" and "Jai". "Chant Hare Krsna" is the first word and the last, and service to his lotus feet is everything in between.

All Glories to Sri Guru, Srila Prabhupada.
