Life of a Sannyasi by Srila Guru Maharaj:
Some times I have given Sannyas to devotes of others missions or in order to they can open others missions. Old people that needed a connection with the Srila prabhupada’s line.
This has been the case of some spiritual brothers like our Bhaktivedanta parivrajak Maharaj who left his body some time later in Puri.
Also with BV bagavat maharaj who translates books in India with Bhaktivedanta kusum sraman maharajá who has now his own disciples.
This is a way to service my brothers , because to take the order of Sannyas from a spiritual brother is Rather a formality in order to fulfill in a better way with our Gurudeva Srila prabhupada what it wanted of us.
In This way a lot missions as we need can be created.
How ever in this page. We present Principally the people who helps as Siksa Guru in different important places of the Vrinda mission.
For me is an honor to initiate a deigns person In the order of the resignation. I have a lot of years as Sannyasi. In a dream – in 1976- I receipt Sannyas from Srila prabhupada, after that I was accepted as an official Sannyasi in 1978 when I was leading the srila prabhupada’s mission in Brasil .
I didn’t feel very well with the Guru’s appointment institutional by zone of ISKON, and in 1984 I had the great mercy to receipt Sannyas by Srila B.R. Sridhar Maharaj, who was the major of all Sannyasis in the Srila prabhupada’s line.
Up to BP keshava maharraj and others spiritual brothers like srila B.S. goswami maharaj and my onw Srila Prabhupada took Sannyas initiation in the line of Srila B.R. sridhar maharaj. In this way I felt protected ans inspired to show and make me responsable of this beautiful line of Resignation of our gaudiya mission to day.
I always pray for the mercy of all of them especially of my siksas Gurus, and of all the devotes who are Protecting me everyday.
To be A Sannyasi is no an easy work.
My advice is: service, service, service
Serving one is kept out of danger, if we serve with humility!!
