"O devotee of the Lord, the purpose of the visual sense is fulfilled simply by seeing you, and to touch your body is the fulfillment of this bodily touch. The tongue is meant for glorifying your qualities because in this world it is very difficult to find a pure devotee of the Lord." (Hari-bhakti-sudhodaya)
Lord Krsna never directly consorts with maya; He simply casts His glance over the material energy and creation occurs. So also you, Srila Prabhupada, come from Vrndavana untouched to rescue us from this ocean of illusion, yet the waves of this ocean never disturb you. Your body is the manifestation of Gauraṅga's mercy, and by seeing you our spiritual sight is restored. What sunrise can match the gleam of your smile?
We come in touch with you by taking the shelter of your lotus feet, and because you have taken shelter of the lotus feet of the Lord, we become sanctified. You are spiritual touchstone, transforming iron-hearted materialists into devotees of the Lord. As Maharaja Ambarisa would not touch anyone except pure devotees, similarly we only want your association.
