Bolo radhee!!!!!!!
Just read this and it makes me think ‘yes prabhupad is still here, and I know it I always have ‘.
May 17: Note this was at a situation when Srila Prabhupada was critically ill and actually he passed away five months from then.
If death takes place, let it take here.
There is nothing to be said now. Whatever I have to speak, I have spoken in my books. Now you try to understand it and continue your endeavour. Whether I am present or not present, it doesn’t matter. As Krishna is living eternally, similarly, living being also lives eternally. But “One who has done service to the Lord lives forever.” So you have been taught to serve Krishna, and with Krishna we’ll live eternally. Our life is eternal.
A temporary disappearance of this body doesn’t matter. Body is meant for disappearance. So live forever by serving Krishna.
Srila Prabhupada
Vrindavan, May 17, 1977.

http://youth.rupa.com/gdc/viewKuli?id=2744 page even brought tears to a stonehearted person like myself.
Subhangi devi dasi and Jamalarjuna das (ACBSP) should be very proud to bring such a wonderful devotee into world, dandavats eternally to them
Begging to serve all the Vaishnava’s

Here is a beautiful piece by Krsna Ashish das
Dear Lord
You took away a wonderful person from us. I’m not going to ask why because you must be having a good reason to take her and you gave her a chance to leave the body in Vrindavan, hearing and chanting the name of Hari and in the association of devotees.
How fortunate is that…in such a young age you delivered a soul who was learning to know life, experiencing new things but you realized that her destination is not in this planet…we with our material eyes cannot understand this fact and might be in dilemma, but as you say, we’re not this body because the body is still lying there on the bed and she is the same person, but now we’re crying and lamenting saying she is gone.
Yes real eternal immortal her is gone, she is not dead she will stay with us forever till we leave this planet, she will stay within our heart cause she was a good person. And in today’s world the amount of good person are just handful so I pray where ever she may be, she be in your shelter my lord…
We’re indeed heartbroken and soul shaken with this incident but life tells us to move and it makes us realize death is close to us, it’s like our shadow and we forget this during of engagements in this material world but how can we forget the reality…
I got a big shock same like all of you and for the past 2 days Lila’s thoughts are all over my mind it’s hard when a person whom you know for so long, just leaves us one day when you least expected something like this can ever happen…
Give us Strength oh mighty lord so that we can understand this mayajal the web of Maya and come out without any trouble and give us strength so that we can fight the followers of kali…
Thinking of Lila I realized she is such a strong girl even though shot at twice she didn’t give up she was hoping for some survival and while in coma she could feel the energy’s of people who were so concerned about her.
Lila, your are a brave person because your alive through your memories within our minds and heart. You always wanted to b in Vrindavan and now you will reside in Vrindavan…in Goloka Vrindavan.
I just have to say within my heart a sweet adorable person will reside and she will realize that how much every one loved her so much this will surely bring some joy to her…
Thank you very much…
In your service
