*HH Jayapataka Swami Maharaj April 5th 2024 11:30 PM IST*

Hare Krishna,
Dear disciples and well-wishers of
HH Jayapataka Swami Maharaja,

Please accept our humble obeisances.

All glories to Srila Prabhupada,

All glories to Guru Maharaja

Guru Maharaja continues to be in ICU and seemed to be doing well yesterday, but soon after midnight, his oxygen saturation dropped significantly and an immediate x-ray showed a lot of fluid collection around his lungs. So, it was decided to remove 1 litre of the fluid and observe. Late in the afternoon another litre was removed and since then the oxygen saturation, breathing and blood pressure are stable so far aided by different medications.

Based on the situation doctors have decided to start intermittent dialysis instead of continuous dialysis. They also upgraded the antibiotics and antifungal injections to combat life-threatening infection.

Guru Maharaja was very drowsy this morning but after resting he woke up to take his lunch in the afternoon and went back to sleep again due to extreme fatigue.

The medical team are doing their best and the prayers of the devotees who did Govardhan parikrama for the health of Guru Maharaja really has made a difference.

*We therefore humbly request devotees to pray intensely to Gauranga Mahaprabhu and Srila Prabhupada for the good health of Guru Maharaja*.

Thank you all for your support and cooperation

On behalf of the
JPS Health Team and
Seva Committee,

Mahavaraha Das

Our Deities are very active. They say in Bengali ‘jāgrata’. If you pray to Them, They hear! That way many devotees’ spiritual desires are fulfilled.
