Please read this post (I know it is long), but to tell you more about our beloved master Srila Prabhupada who is still present in our heart in form of his books, the subtile has been written down by the mercy of Srila Prabhupada (The video is among the one offered to"Thank you Srila Prabhupada" Jagruti '14).
The Vedic scriptures states that only one who is free from material bondage can posses these qualities in full. Such a great soul is very rarely found this material realms, and owing to his unparalleled purity and exalted status as an intimate associate of Lord Krishna, he is worship-able by the entire world.
The 26 qualities:
1. Merciful- "I have come to your country not to take anything, but to simple give."
2. Truthful- He spoke the truth about the BG.
3. Magnanimous- He gave us wonderful philosophy, holy name of Krishna, beautiful Deities. But in return never asked anything.
4. Desire-less- He was completely absorbed in the desire to please Krishna.
5. Indifferent to Material acquisitions- He always preached KC all over the world without settling in his ornate temples.
The lotus feet of our spiritual master are the only way by which we can attain pure devotional service. I bow to his lotus feet with great awe and reverence. By his grace one can cross the ocean of material suffering and obtain the mercy of Krsna.
06. Without material acquisition- He used every penny in the service of Krishna.
07. Fixed- He fixed his determination to carry out his master's order diligently; to spread Krishna's message.
08. Without False Prestige- He considered his disciples to be representatives of his spiritual master, sent to him to assist him in his mission.
09. Grave-He was most vibrant personality abounded with Laughter yet he was always serious about KC.
10. Not Defiant-He was always surrendered to his spiritual master & never evinced even a hint of defiance in his character .
My only wish is to have my consciousness purified by the word emanating from his lotus mouth. Attachment to his lotus feet is the perfection that fulfills all desires.
11. Respectful- He treated everyone with the utmost respect, thus softening their hearts & rekindling their spiritual sentiments.
12. Equal to everyone- He was constantly immersed in distributing Chaitanya's mercy & love of Krishna to everyone
13. Clean- His hearts & mind were constantly submerged in the purifying waters of love of Godhead
14. Peaceful- Inspire of immense pressure, responsibility, & problems of ISKCON, He meted out love, guidance with full composure
15. Mild- He never displayed even a drop of false pride & always maintained a mildness due to which everyone felt at ease.
He opens my darkened eyes and fills my heart with transcendental knowledge He is my lord birth after birth., From him ecstatic prema emanated; by him ignorance is destroyed. The vedic scriptures sing of his character.
16. Poetic- His gesturing, walking, talking, singing, smiling, dancing & worship were all done with a natural poetic grace.
17. Sane- Never was there a moment I have not thought of Krishna in this life
18. Faultless- He sacrificed own bodily comforts for the service of mankind without having a tendency to cheat others
19. Surrendered to Krishna- He was constantly engaged in devotional service with mind, body and words.
20. Eats only as much as required- Although presented with opulent prasandam, he only took modest portions, distributing the remaining to devotees.
O Spiritual master, Ocean of mercy and friend of the fallen soul . You are the teacher of everyone and the life of all people. O master, Be merciful onto me,and give me the shade of your lotus feet. May your glories now be proclaimed in three world.
21. Completely controls the six bad qualities- Like a Vaidurya gem, he manifested many beautiful, transcendental qualities at every moment.
22. Performs welfare work for everyone- He offered a potent spiritual program , capable of eradicating the material existence of anyone who takes to it seriously
23. Expert- He miraculously ignited a spiritual explosion, whose vibrations are still resonating through out the world
24. Silent- His words are a river of nectar flowing mercifully into the hearts of the devotees
25. Compassionate- His words are a river of nectar flowing mercifully into the hearts of the devotees
26.Friend- The spiritual friendship of Srila Prabhupada is the rarest of gems, & intelligent persons will guard it as life's treasure.
