Vyāsa-pūjā 2020

Amṛteśa Kṛṣṇa dāsa and Rāsalīlā devī dāsī (Mayapur - India)

Today, on this most auspicious occasion of your Vyasapuja, I wanted to highlight one of your most outstanding qualities which, for me, make up the very essence of your entire personality. Your care. I have been born into Krishna Consciousness, both my parents have been devotees for decades and yet, none of us have ever seen or met someone as caring as you. You not only care for your own disciples, or disciples of other gurus, you even care for the neophyte Bhaktas and even the Karmis or non-devotees. You leave no one away from your mercy and benevolence. You never discriminate. As time passes, it becomes increasingly difficult to maintain this kind of care for normal humans. This type of care requires extreme levels of compassion, generosity and kindness. You have not only maintained this care for all these years but you maintained it despite your severe illness. In fact, your care is ever-increasing. You care for your brothers, your children, little kids, old devotees…….you leave no one. I cannot even fathom how Your Grace can think about so many living entities when you yourself need so much care. I can only conclude that this quality of yours……as all others…..is divine. That’s the only explanation. Only a pure devotee of the Lord, a true representative of Krishna can display such profuse care. I am beyond honored and blessed to have met and known such a divine master as you dear Gurudev. You are the epitome of kindness and affection and I pray to you O Merciful Master on this beautiful day of your Divine Appearance to kindly impart at least a fraction of this benevolent quality so that one day I will be able to care for devotees following the footsteps of my Glorious Spiritual Master.

Your most fallen servant,
Vaishnavi
