Sumadhurī Campakalatā devī dāsī (Mumbai–Chowpatty - India)

Dearest Gurudev,

Hare Krishna!! Please accept my dandvats to your lotus feet!!! All glories to Srila Prabhupada and to his dear servants! All glories unto your lotus feet!

Dear Guru Maharaj, words fail to express the deep gratitude I have for your mercy from the bottom of my heart. This year has been specially merciful for me as you accepted me as your disciple, truly being the patit pavan dear most associate of Lord Caitanya Mahaprabhu. Your mercy is unbounded much beyond what my tiny hands can hold. I truly do not deserve so much grace, am not eligible. The connection I experience after getting initiated by you is extremely special Gurudev. I am extremely fortunate and forever indebted to you for this. I have been trying to hear you regularly and am overwhelmed by your drive to benefit the whole world by your kind association through your lectures every single day. Despite the material difficulty of health, you have been a true super hero and the strongest soldier of Lord Caitanya Mahaprabhu to stand so strong for all your thousands of disciples and devotees the world over. The amount of love and reverence that I feel for you Guru Maharaj are unbounded. I am simply amazed at the way you reciprocate to each disciple exactly the way Krsna reciprocates to each devotee. The care and shelter you give to each devotee is so extra ordinary - when you ask everyday after your lecture whether anyone needs to be introduced, or who all are leaving the next day. I always felt that I will be lost in the sea of the disciples you have, especially such senior ones and we new disciples will have no approchability towards you. But when you asked this question I was jubilant. This kind of care is exceptional! When I heard this for the first time being there I was overjoyed as I really wanted to talk to you and I was alone in Mayapur leaving behind my small child and family. It was the first time ever that I was alone and so far away from home at Mumbai, it was very daunting and I was scared. WIthout any accomodation pre booking. But your servants helped me Gurudev! They were so kind and helpful; especailly god brothers HG Adbhut GIridhari pr, HG Mani Gopal pr and HG Venugopal pr helped immensely without whom I could not have received my initiation. This was in fact your grace flowing in through my god brothers and sisters.

I had the strong desire to come back to Mayapur from Mumbai again after my initiation ceremony to have your darshan and you were so so so kind that you came in my dream and gave me mercy of your darshan saying 'Hare Krsna' with both your hands up! I pray to Lord Nityananda, Sri Panchattatva, Lord Narsimhadev and Sri Sri Radha Madhav that you are quickly healed standing tall and strong on your feet and completely healthy to travel and preach Lord Caitanya's message all over the world. Haribol!!!

Am also immensely thankful to all your servants, across various teams formed systematically, who have been serving you all throughout. The fortune they have found by serving you thus cannot be compared to any other possession in the world.

I beg to wish you a very auspicious 70th appearance day!!!

Your disciple and aspiring servant,
