Vyāsa-pūjā 2017

Īśānī Rukmiṇī Devī Dāsī (Bangalore - Sri Sri Narasimha Giridhari Mandir - India)

Please accept my most respectful obeisances. 

All Glories to Śrīla Prabhupāda! 

All Glories to you Śrīla Gurudeva! 

Hare Kṛṣṇa Guru Mahārāja, 

Please accept my humble obeisances at your lotus feet! 

When you had come to Bangalore just recently I got your blessings and an opportunity to serve you. I was very happy as I wanted to take your darśana since many days and with Gaurāṅga’s mercy that happened. With Gaurāṅga and Śrīla Prabhupāda’s mercy I’m trying to preach but if your blessings are there then I am sure I can preach even better. I feel very sad for people who aren’t in Kṛṣṇa consciousness because I also used to waste my time before like them, but with a Vaiṣṇava’s mercy I’ve got the opportunity to serve guru and Gaurāṅga. I wish to preach and bring everyone to Kṛṣṇa consciousness, so that they also can serve guru and Gaurāṅga and attain the ultimate goal. I’m trying my best but without your blessings nothing can happen, so please bless me that I can preach well and make people get interested in Kṛṣṇa consciousness. I’m not so capable that I can make someone a devotee because I myself am such a fallen soul. But you are a pure devotee, only by your blessings we can do something. Please bless me so I can preach well. The way you’ve surrendered yourself to Śrīla Prabhupāda’s mission is very inspiring. Please bless me that I can also use my strength and knowledge to serve you. 

My husband Īśvara Parama Kṛṣṇa Dāsa supports me in preaching and rendering service to Lord Jagannātha. I have 2 kids, a son (Suraj) and a daughter (Sunaina). My daughter also follows the ISKCON process for advancing in Kṛṣṇa consciousness and helps me in serving the Lordships in our house. She wishes to take your shelter soon. Whereas my son who’s doing higher studies in Delhi chants one round everyday but hasn’t developed taste for Kṛṣṇa conscious just yet. He has had your darśana quite a few times and taken your blessings. I always pray that he also serves guru and Gaurāṅga and this can happen only by your blessings, so please bless him. 

Also, I always pray to Narasiṁhadeva everyday for your well-being. 

Your servant, 
Īśānī Rukmiṇī Devī Dāsī
