Dear Reader,

This much loved tribute has moved to the journal in my new website, Avahana. Just click here to find this article. Within a few months after I wrote this in 2015, over 15,000 devotees had read it. I’m very grateful he lives on through my stories of him and that his life gives inspiration to so many. Two years later, we experienced another unexpected loss—Br. Francis, who was a close friend to Marcelo and to me, left this world. I wrote a tribute to him as well. It is my sincere wish that these tributes will inspire you and all other spiritual seekers.

Respectfully,
Naren K. Schreiner
