20230917 HH Bhakti Charu Swami Mahārāja Apperance Day Address

The following is the address given by His Holiness Jayapatākā Swami on the Appearance Day of His Holiness Bhakti Charu Swami Mahārāja at Ś

Jayapatākā Swami: My dear Śrī Śrīmad Bhakti Cāru Swami Mahārāja,

You have always been a very dear godbrother and from the day you came I knew that you would be favored by Śrīla Prabhupāda. And that he would like to engage you in devotional service. By various services I tried to keep you engaged. But when Śrīla Prabhupāda came, he was very happy to see a nice devotee like Your Holiness. So on this occasion of your appearance day, I would like to offer you my respectful obeisances. My appreciation of your wonderful kīrtanas, and you would prepare a feasts for the GBCs, and even though I was not able to come over to partake in those feasts, you were very kind and you would send over a tiffin carrier of the preparations. And all the brahmacārīs appreciate how much care you took of all the devotees. You had said when I was sick in the hospital, that I had to recover. I had requested you to recover, but you did not do that. Maybe Śrīla Prabhupāda had wanted to engage you. Anyway, on this day of your appearance, I would like to humbly offer my appreciation and homage, at your lotus feet.

Hare Kṛṣṇa!

Śrīla Bhakti Cāru Swami Mahārāja kī jaya!

Śrīla Prabhupāda kī jaya!
