Prayer Request For Urvasi DD

The following message was written by Rukmini Devi (ACBSP):

"Dear Vaishnavas, a prayer request. Two days ago, one of Srila Prabhupada's dear disciples suffered a stroke. Urvasi Devi Dasi was a pioneer of ISKCON in Toronto, serving as pujari and book distributor, and spending endless months selling paraphernalia on the streets to collect the laksmi to buy the temple at 243 Avenue Road. For the past many years, Urvasi has lived in Ojai, California, where she has organized large monthly events with special guests such as Giriraj Swami.

"Urvasi was back in Toronto for Ratha Yatra several times; on her most recent visit pre-Covid, she helped out the Govinda's booth for the entire festival. Urvasi Prabhu is expected to breathe her last breaths soon (if not today) so please pray for this intrepid follower of Srila Prabhupada as she enters the final stage of this life's journey!'

"My Dear Urvasi Devi, since you have always been 'Prabhupada’s girl,' may His Divine Grace take you away from this holocaust of a world, back home to serve him forever. All glories to your beautiful bhakti life." - Rukmini Devi Dasi

AKD: While very difficult to witness our spiritual parents leave this world, it is a deep honor to have the opportunity to pray for their glorious departure. Thank you for letting us know so we can do just that for Her Grace Urvasi Devi. I don’t believe I met her but I do recognize her. I hope to meet again one day. Hare Krishna Hare Krishna Krishna Krishna hare hare hare rama hare Rama Rama Rama hare hare.

V Dasi: A beautiful soul, no doubt. Prayers offered. Hare Krishna, and Godspeed dear Godsister!

V Dasi #2: May her journey back to godhead be peaceful.

LR Dasi: Prayers.

AR: So sad.

K Devi Dasi: Hare krsna.

[PADA: Yikees pilgrims! All of us "old timers" are clocking out of here. Anyway! Good luck on your soul's journey Urvasi dd. May Krishna bless you and Godspeed. ys pd]
