SP requests Puri Maharaj to sing Jaya Radha in his last days and gifts him.

Then Srila Prabhupada gently said that he was going soon from this world and asked Srila Puri Maharaja if he would offer him a gift. Srila Puri Maharaja replied, "Yes, of course, I will give anything." Srila Prabhupada said that he had very much wanted to perform parikrama of Giriraja Govardhana and Sri Vraja-mandala, but he was unable to do so. He also told Srila Puri Maharaja that he remembered when their guru maharaja, Srila Bhaktisiddhanta Sarasvati Prabhupada, was leaving this world, Srila Puri Maharaja had wanted to sing for him, but had been unable to do so. Srila Prabhupada then asked Srila Puri Maharaja, "Will you sing for me now? Would you sing 'Jaya Radhe, Jaya Krishna, Jaya Vrindavana'? In this way you can help me perform parikrama."

Srila Puri Maharaja then sang very sweetly while Srila Prabhupada closed his eyes and listened. Tears were falling from both of their eyes. After some time, Srila Prabhupada opened his eyes and asked if he could now offer from his heart a gift to Srila Puri Maharaja in reciprocation. Srila Puri Maharaja replied that of course, he would be honored to accept anything from him. Srila Prabhupada whispered to his disciple who returned after a few minutes with a plate of the maha-prasadam of Sri Sri Krishna-Balarama and Radha-Syamasundara. With love, Srila Prabhupada had his Western disciple offer Srila Puri Maharaja this gift. Srila Puri Maharaja accepted Srila Prabhupada's gift and honored the prasada, respecting that it had been cooked, offered and served by Srila Prabhupada's Western followers.
