Hare Kṛṣṇa.
Dear devotees, disciples, and well-wishers,
Please accept our humble obeisances.
All glories to Śrīla Prabhupāda.
Guru Mahārāja’s condition became more critical overnight.
Guru Mahārāja developed fever last night and he also had two episodes of seizures. The exact cause of these seizures is not yet known, and the medical team did an MRI today to determine the underlying cause. The results are expected.
At present, Guru Mahārāja is receiving symptomatic treatment to control and prevent further seizures. However, there has been no significant progress in his overall condition, and his brain function remains reduced overall and has shown slight improvement in second half of day.
The medical team continues to closely monitor his condition and will assess the MRI findings and other investigations to determine the appropriate course of treatment.
Guru Mahārāja’s condition remains fragile and serious. We humbly request all devotees, disciples, and well-wishers to intensify their prayers for his recovery.
May the causeless mercy of Śrī Śrī Rādhā-Mādhava, Śrī Pañca-tattva, Śrī Prahlāda-Nṛsiṁhadeva, and Śrīla Prabhupāda protect and help in the recovery of Guru Mahārāja.
