can you serve Srila Prabhupada only if you are his disciple?

[Paramananda das]

can you only serve Srila Prabhupada if you are his disciple ?
No certainly not , I never met Srila Prabhupada in person but since I started reading Srila Prabhupadas Bhagavad Gita in June of 1977 I accepted Srila Prabhupada in my heart as my Guru , no devotee needed to tell me he is my Guru, I knew it right away.When I came to the temple in 1979 I found out the very first time I offered my obaisences to Srila Prabhupada murti that he had left this world .I cried because I wanted to be his disciple.Srila Prabhupada had placed the desire within my heart to always chant Hare Krsna and read his books and distribute his books with this mood I joined the Hare Krsna movement and this is still my inspiration to this day that Srila Prabhupada gave me way back in 1977/78..I do not want to brag or glorify myself but I recall one day in 1982 I was alone in our temple and going to distribute books alone that day , I listened to Srila Prabhupadas lecture chanted my rounds and read his books, and I prayed Srila Prabhupada please protect me today and be with me all day long and that day I never forget I felt Srila Prabhupada was walking next to me all day long and looking at me books where flying out 70 big books I distrbuted for the pleasure of Srila Prabhupada that day.I wish every day was like this where Srila Prabhupada would be manifest to me all day long .Sometimes Srila Prabhupada has appeared to me in dreams and given me clear cut guidance ,I think those who are Srila Prabhupadas disciples often under estimate Srila Prabhupadas mercy on others that did not get his association ,they assume we are more advanced but often they are not.Sri Ramanujacarya never got to meet his Guru Yamunacarya but he knew the heart of his Guru .I have confidence if Srila Prabhupada can show such mercy to me he is surely doing this to others as well ,they may get Srila Prabhupadas mercy maybe even more than me so I offer my humble obaisences to Srila Prabhupadas servants and disciples as well as his grand disciples and great grand disciples and all to come.I see that everyone can have Srila Prabhupadas mercy ,Srila Prabhupada is kindly protecting and guiding me,and I pray for his mercy daily

ŚB 7.9.18

so ’haṁ priyasya suhṛdaḥ paradevatāyā
līlā-kathās tava nṛsiṁha viriñca-gītāḥ
añjas titarmy anugṛṇan guṇa-vipramukto
durgāṇi te pada-yugālaya-haṁsa-saṅgaḥ

O my Lord Nṛsiṁhadeva, by engaging in Your transcendental loving service in the association of devotees who are liberated souls [haṁsas], I shall become completely uncontaminated by the association of the three modes of material nature and be able to chant the glories of Your Lordship, who are so dear to me. I shall chant Your glories, following exactly in the footsteps of Lord Brahmā and his disciplic succession. In this way I shall undoubtedly be able to cross the ocean of nescience.

Srila Prabhupada told me in my dream in 2004 I want you serve me in my ISKCON and you worship me only ,I am your Guru do not let any devotees push you out of ISKCON though they will try again and again .Some have enviousness towards you do not let them discourage you ever

svasty astu viśvasya khalaḥ prasīdatāṁ
dhyāyantu bhūtāni śivaṁ mitho dhiyā
manaś ca bhadraṁ bhajatād adhokṣaje
āveśyatāṁ no matir apy ahaitukī

May there be good fortune throughout the universe, and may all envious persons be pacified. May all living entities become calm by practicing bhakti-yoga, for by accepting devotional service they will think of each other’s welfare. Therefore let us all engage in the service of the supreme transcendence, Lord Śrī Kṛṣṇa, and always remain absorbed in thought of Him. pleasing me .
So whatever someone like me or not I no longer care I chant my 64 rounds worship Srila Prabhupada and Giriraja Govardhana daily and distribute Srila Prabhupadas books and I write about Krsna consciousness ,thank you Srila Prabhupada and Srila Prabhupada warned sometimes there are envious demons in the name of socalled devoteed they should be completely avoided

Many devotees did not get very close to Srila Prabhupada but listened to his lectures , but they still often look down on the rest of us that ,that is very dangerous mentality , serve Srila Prabhupada and do not just be a parasite.How we serve Srila Prabhupada ? Read and distribute his books chant 64 rounds daily as this is Srila Prabhupadas ADI VANI original instruction .Srila Prabhupada said if you want to please me in the best way distribute my books ! And we have to become pure devotees of Lord Sri Krsna .One class of socalled ISKCON devotees hate and are jealous of the book distributors because they will never go out or they stopped going on bookdistribution many years ago.But bookdistribution is for everyone Srila Prabhupada wanted TP's and sannyasis and GBC's to distribute his books also .His instruction was keep one Pujari and one cook at the temple and one person to clean the whole temple ,the rest should go on book distribution so if you carefully read my article you can clearly see to what degree you are in ISKCON .It is not about externals only but internals .
