Srila Bhaktivinode Thakur himself will personally come here
Ajamil das : I was also here in Mayapur for the opening of the Mayapur Chandrodaya Mandir, the Lotus Building, when Radha Madhava were invited to Their new building. There must have been about a thousand devotees. It was really packed with devotees. Srila Prabhupada arrived in the evening, and then on the next morning we had mangal aratik and it was the first big mangal aratik with Srila Prabhupada in the Lotus Building for that festival. So that mangal aratik was absolutely tumultuous. From where I was, I looked around and nobody's feet were touching the ground. It was almost like everyone was on the ceiling. Everyone was dancing. They were jumping, really jumping, so much so that most of the time in the kirtan you only saw them in the air, and the sound was absolutely tumultuous. It was so ecstatic, very special kirtan, and it was led by His Holiness Tamal Krishna Maharaj. So after the kirtan, Tamal Krsna Maharaj went up to Prabhupada's room and spoke with him. Then Prabhupada immediately said to him, "If you all keep chanting like this, then Srila Bhaktivinode Thakur himself will personally come here and take you all back to Godhead."
