Hare Krishna
Please accept my humbly offered obeisances.
All glories to Srila Prabhupada!
The glories of His Holiness Jayapataka Swami have only increased since the dark day of his stroke two and a half years ago. Only a very special soul could possible triumph over such a spectacular devastation of the physical body in such a glorious manner. That he keeps on serving and preaching is not only itself a miracle but an even greater inspiration for devotees of all levels. Who can sit back and complain about anything with such an example before us? Who could not be inspired to try even harder to live up to the basic level of vaishnava dharma and behavior, what to speak of pushing ourselves on even further?
He has imbibed the determined mood of Srila Prabhupada to preach unto death, whatever the circumstances may be. He seems to be an intimate member of Lord Chaitanya's inner preaching circle on behalf of Srila Prabhupada.
What a wonderful personality to be associated with! How proud we are of him! How much we should wish to fall in the dust of his lotus feet! May he be blessed many more unlimited years of pure devotional service before taking leave of this world and going back to Godhead.
Your Servant,
Malati Devi Dasi.
