Prabhupada meditated on Lord Krishna until the last breath

Satsvarupa Dasa: When all is said and done, I'm confident that Prabhupada will claim his devotees as long as we turn to him. He has specifically instructed us about the time of death. He said the same thing that Bhagavan Krishna says: "Think of Krishna at the end of life and surely you will come to Me, without a doubt." This time-of-death meditation will carry us to the spiritual world. And Krishna will note the brand of our meditation, as the followers of His Divine Grace Srila Prabhupada. Prabhupada personally meditated on Lord Krishna until the last breath, while residing in Krishna-Balarama Mandir, while urging his disciples never to give up preaching. There is no conflict between thinking of Prabhupada and thinking of Krishna. Even when we feel we are most in tune with Krishna directly, by His words in Bhagavad-gita or in His beautiful form in the arca-vigraha, even then we are gratefully aware, Srila Prabhupada, I am doing what you told me and as always, you were right. Krishna is so nice. According to Gaudiya Vaishnava philosophy, the spiritual master leads the devotee into his eternal rasa with Sri Sri Radha-Krishna in Vrindavana. And just in case we have not done so well, it's Srila Prabhupada who will stand between us and the Yamadutas' fierce punishments.
