Volcanic Energy
Srila Gurudev sings the glories of his Gurudev, “Śrīla Gurudeva’s single-minded allegiance to his spiritual master is an example to be followed by everyone. Śrīla Gurudeva’s entire being—his meditation, his thoughts, his japa, everything—was fully devoted for fulfilling Śrīla Prabhupada’s desires. Śrīla Prabhupada generally sent Śrīla Gurudeva as the advance man to do the groundwork for these events. He had complete faith that whatever task he gave him would be carried out to completion. Śrīla Prabhupada used the words ‘Volcanic Energy’ to describe Śrīla Gurudeva’s unflinching resolve, application and success in all endeavors entrusted to him.”
