Where is Saradiya Dasi?

Jahnava Devi: One night Srila Prabhupada called for us to come to his quarters at 26 Second Avenue. The new temple was a block or two down the street at 61 Second Avenue. We all knew the history and the privilege of seeing Srila Prabhupada at 26 Second Avenue, and Rukmini, Saradiya and I were on our way, but at the last minute, Saradiya said she couldn't come. She had to tend to the laundry or something. When Rukmini and I walked through Prabhupada's door, Srila Prabhupada said, "Where is Saradiya?" Then we understood that Srila Prabhupada was concerned for each of his daughters, where they were, how they were being engaged, how they were feeling.
