Departure of H.G Kulashekar Prabhu in Mayapur

D ear community devotees,
Hare Krishna

With sadness we wish to inform you that H.G. Kulashekar Prabhu, a disciple of Srila Prabhupada, left his body in Sri Mayapur Community hospital this morning at around 1am. He joined ISKCON in Canada and was initiated by Srila Prabhupad in 1967. In his early days as a young brahmacari he was together in a brahmacari ashram with HH Jayapataka Svami. He remained a brahmacari throughout his life. For more than 35 years he served as a pujari in various ISKCON temples. In his late sixties he built a temple for the Deities (as the house extension) with his own hands at Sharanagati, a devotee farm community in Canada. Before moving to Mayapur, he donated his whole property with the temple to ISKCON and spent the last three years in Sri Mayapur dhama, engaged in hearing, chanting and other devotional activities.
His cremation ceremony will be held today at Srila Prabhupada’s ghat at 10 am.
