"I bow my head in eternal obeisance to my Gurudev, the best of acharyas,
Srila Bhakti Nirmal Acharya Maharaj. He is the ever vigilant, stalwart
guardian of the current of pure devotion whose highest form flows from our
most worshippable Sri Rupanuga Guru-varga in their exclusive dedication to
Mahabhav, Srimati Radharani."

The construction of the upper portion of the walls above the windows has commenced.
A worker is casting the supporting layer of cement atop the window openings.
As the cement dries, some of the temporary supporting bricks are taken out of the arches revealing their shape.
On the right: further elements of design at the front of the building have started taking shape.
The stairs leading onto the future roof has also been cast now.

Om Vishnupad
Srila Bhakti Nirmal Acharya Maharaj:
"You all say that you will come and tolerate so many austerities wherever I
am—whether I stay in a forest or in a jungle, you say you will still come.
Hearing and seeing this, I get enthusiasm to do this parikrama. If you
did not come, how would I feel eager to do it? I would not. You come, you
tolerate all the inconveniences, many of you do not get a proper place, do
not get a room, you sleep on the veranda, in the nat mandir, in different
pandals, but you come to join this parikrama, and it gives me so much
joy. That is why, I always feel enthusiastic, I always think how to arrange
the parikrama next time, how to increase the facilities for the next
time. You can see that even during the past year, more rooms were built here,
the outbuilding kitchen was expanded, etc. In this way, I am trying to
increase the facilities in various places, I struggle and try hard to arrange
place for you to stay. To this day, I am still trying hard to do this on the
order of my Gurudev."
(From Parikrama: More Than Pilgrimage, Part One)
