SEARCHING FOR GURU

Up until January 1977 Prabhupada’s movement had not come to Orissa. The people of Orissa had no opportunity to know about it. I left my family, home, everything in 1974 and traveled throughout ‘‘‘‘India’’ in search of a bona fide spiritual master. I was born in Orissa where there are so many vaishnavas. I met them. Many were disciples of Srimad Bhaktisiddhanta Saraswati Goswami Maharaja. But I could not get the answers to the questions of my heart from them. From my childhood, I was attracted to Sriman Mahaprabhu. I had a desire to see the message of Sriman Chaitanya Mahaprabhu spread everywhere. I was born and brought up in a family where Mahaprabhu’s saṅkīrtana was always going on and Śrīmad Bhāgavatam was always being read. While in school I was not so attentive in my studies. Spending most of my time in saṅkīrtana, I was often absent. Yet, by the mercy of Sriman Mahaprabhu and Krishna, in spite of my many absences and negligence I was successful in my examination. I do not know how it happened. Then I began my career as a teacher. I taught mathematics, geography, Oriya, and English in secondary school. However, teaching material education was not satisfying to me. There was no scope to teach about Krishna. Still, whenever there was an opportunity I would tell my students about Krishna, even in mathematics class. At one point the headmaster remarked that I was not teaching the subject. It was a very painful situation and I was always wondering when I would be able to quit. Krishna finally gave the opportunity and I took it. 

I was on a quest to find a bonafide spiritual master. I traveled throughout India. I met and discussed with many karmis, jnanis, pandits, yogis, and vaishnavas. But no one spoke about Chaitanya Mahaprabhu. In this age of Kali, Chaitanya Mahaprabhu’s saṅkīrtana yajña — kalau tad dhari-kīrtanāt — is the only dharma.19 Finally, at the end of my tour, I came to Vrindavan with the feeling that Krishna had to bless me there. It was in that beloved land of Krishna that I met my spiritual master.

FIRST MEETING

At that time I was wearing the dress of a wandering sādhu, although I was not one. While passing through Ramana-reti, a sign caught my eye — “International Society for Krishna Consciousness, Founder Acharya His Divine Grace A. C. Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupada”. I wanted to see what was going on there, so I entered the ashram. The temple was not yet constructed and a few huts were there. There was only one brick and mortar house, Srila Prabhupada’s. I saw many Western vaishnavas with shaven head, neck beads, and beads for chanting hare kṛṣṇa. I enquired whether A.C. Bhaktivedanta Swami was there‚ bbecause I wanted to see him. Fortunately, he was there that day. One of the disciples advised me to meet his secretary, who would make the necessary arrangements. At that time, Brahmananda Swami held the post. He asked me why I wanted to meet Srila Prabhupada. I explained that I wanted to meet him, a mahatma, because his darshana is very auspicious and I wanted to speak with him. I asked him to please have mercy on me and make the arrangements. It was just past twelve, midday. Prabhupada had already taken his prasāda and was sitting on a chair in his room. Brahmananda Swami went inside the room and told Prabhupada that a sadhu had come to see him. At once, Prabhupada said, “All right, tell him to come.” WWhen I went inside, I paid my fully prostrated obeisances, and, from the first sight, I could understand he was really a paramahaṁsa, mahā-bhāgavata. I could feel that he was the genuine representative of Mahaprabhu. It was my heart’s natural attraction. He asked who I was and what I wanted. I answered those questions and told him that I had put on sadhu’s dress, but was not really a sadhu. He asked if I had taken sannyāsa. When I said that I had not, he said, “I will give you sannyāsa.” I could understand that he knew my heart and was really caitya-guru. 

I was speaking Hindi with him because of having spent a great deal of time in the Himalayas. Prabhupada asked, “You speak Hindi nicely. Can you translate my books?” I agreed. My mother tongue was not Hindi, but because he had ordered I had to do it. He told Brahmananda, “Give him a book, paper, and pen. Let him translate in Hindi.” For nearly forty-five minutes I translated a portion of one of Prabhupada’s articles from BTG, Back to Godhead. I brought it to him immediately after finishing. Prabhupada asked me to read it out loud. Prabhupada appreciated it very much and ordered Brahmananda to give me a special room, table, paper, pen, and whatever else was required for translation. Other devotees were not provided with a room because no rooms were there, only huts. Some of them became envious, “Who is this person? He just came and was provided with a room?” Anyhow, it was just Prabhupada’s mercy. I began my translations in Hindi. I translated The Perfection of Yoga and it was printed. Then Prabhupada left Vrindavan for Delhi, Calcutta, and then Mayapur. I stayed in Vrindavan, translating his books.
