This is Srila Prabhupada. And that gratitude he has for his followers, even though they can not serve him properly, it forces his followers to feel so much gratitude for him because Srila Prabhupada gave us the most precious gift. Not only did he give us the gift of love for Krishna, but he gave us the gift of love for Srila Prabhupada and this is the most valuable gift for anyone who follows his lotus feet and he can never be forgotten, not for eternity.
That gift of love for Srila Prabhupada is the most valuable gift that we must posses in this life, and anybody who has come to this Krishna consciousness movement, they should know that this gift has come from Srila Prabhupada. They should take this debt into their hearts and love him as he loved us.
