HE LIVES FOREVER IN FRANCE
(and wherever he is present — in his books, followers, Deities, temples, and
hearts...)
The murti of Srila Prabhupada in these photos was lovingly moulded and
produced by devoted members of the Russian yatra, offered as free gifts to
every initiated disciple of Srila Prabhupada. Thousands have been created so
far, and production continues for any devotee who wishes to have this
precious personal association of Srila Prabhupada.
We have been gradually distributing these sacred murtis to the dedicated
disciples scattered across France. To date, 39 out of 64 traced living
disciples in France have received the murti.
The impact has been profound and deeply moving. It is unmistakably clear —
Srila Prabhupada is fully alive in his Deity form. Devotees, many of whom
had not been in touch for decades or had drifted from regular sadhana, have
wept with joy upon receiving him. For them, it is as if Srila Prabhupada has
come home, embracing them with unending compassion.
He never forgets even the tiniest service, and he continues to love
unconditionally, no matter what direction our lives have taken. This has
been one of the most touching and inspiring interactions with Srila
Prabhupada I have ever witnessed.
Unlimited thanks to the wonderful devotees from Russia and beyond who have
made this selfless sacrifice to please Srila Prabhupada — bringing us all
back together, with the Acarya in the centre of our lives.
Below are some pictures of these heartfelt meetings. Sadly, several images
were lost due to technical issues. We sincerely apologise to the devotees
whose photos could not be included. But no one is truly left out — everyone
is present in this divine connection.
