By Krishna Premavati Dasi: YOUR PRAYERS DESPERATELY NEEDED

By Krishna Premavati Dasi:

YOUR PRAYERS DESPERATELY NEEDED

Humbly begging all the Vaisnavas prayers for Aprameya Prabhu, my former husband and father of my daughter Radhika, who is seriously ill with brain tumor in Northampton General Hospital and will be moved to a palliative nursing home.
Aprameya Prabhu met Srila Prabhupada in Bury Place and the Bhaktivedanta Manor in the early seventies. 

He was studying classical music at the time in Edinburgh and went back to his studies, regretting later of not joining then. He joined after Srila Prabhupada's departure and was initiated by Jayatirtha Prabhu with the name Nara-Narayana Dasa. In 1983 he got reinitiated with the name Aprameya Dasa by Bhagavan Prabhu at Caitanya College.

He was on the Sankirtan Party of Krpamoya Prabhu in his brahmacari years. Some devotees remember him from that time. Aprameya Prabhu served with myself as the last Head Pujari at Caitanya College and he was also engaged in music, playing guitar. He performed in the devotee band with Maharani and Syama Manjari.

Aprameya also wrote a beautiful overture for one of the Sudama Brahmana plays, done by Parividha Prabhu. Composing classical devotional music is his passion. Unfortunately it never got recognised to date.

After the closing down of Caitanya College Aprameya Prabhu served as Deity cook at Sri Sri Radha Londonisvara Temple and then as Despatch Manager for Quality Fine Arts headed by Sanjaya Prabhu, as bookkeeper and later travelling salesman for BBL, under Amita Prabhu. Between 1990 and 1995, Aprameya Prabhu served as (Deity) cook and pujari at Radhadesh and also part of that time at Bhaktivedanta College.

Between 1995 and 1996 he was giving cooking classes at the Temple in Amsterdam. In 1996 we went to India; he was supposed to work on music for the Abhay Charan series, but unfortunately it didn't work out as hoped.

In 1996 Aprameya went back to the UK, where after some time he decided to live on his own in Northampton, living under quite austere circumstances, maintaining body and soul together, continuing his personal Krishna Consciousness and composing music. Insignificant as he may consider himself, always avoiding the lime light, I beg for prayers from the merciful Vaisnavas, for the Lord's mercy upon this sincere soul.
