Krishna has His plan and we<br \/>\ncannot interfere with that, but we can express our desire to have Maharaja<br \/>\nremain with us for as long as possible. Despite his age Maharaja is still<br \/>\nquite youthful and has so much still to offer as far as expansion of the<br \/>\nKrishna conscious movement is concerned. From my perspective he has<br \/>\ncontributed so much, over so many years, to the development of the UK yatra<\/p>\n<p>As many of us know Maharaja has a unique ability to make you feel like the<br \/>\nmost important person in the world whenever you are in his association. In<br \/>\nmany ways when talking with him, time kinda stands still and he is never in<br \/>\na rush to depart. That is reciprocated by one and all he meets due to his<br \/>\nsweet, sweet nature, dedication to Srila Prabhupada and his infectious<br \/>\nenthusiasm for spreading Krishna consciousness<\/p>\n<p>Constantly thinking of you and fighting with you at this time Maharaja<\/p>\n<p>Your friend and servant,<\/p>\n<p>Praghosa dasa<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/i.imgur.com\/VKzcq4S.jpg\" alt=\"\" \/><img src= \"https:\/\/i.imgur.com\/VKzcq4S.jpg\" \/><\/p>\n<p>We are all praying with our hearts and soul.
