Vyāsa-pūjā 2018

Vraja Vinoda devī dāsī (Sydney - Australia)

My dear spiritual father Srila Jayapataka Swami Maharaja,

Please accept my respectful obeisances. All glories to Your Divine Grace.

I offer my obeisances to Your Divine Grace’s lotus feet on the occasion of your Vyäsa-püjä celebration.

I wondered why we all adore you so much, then I started meditating on the beautiful qualities you exemplify.

Here are few of the unlimited qualities which my little brain could understand and capture.

Is it that Austerity you take to travel all around the world to save fallen souls without worrying about yourself?

Is it that personalism that touches the heart of many conditioned souls and provide them the spiritual relationship that helps them reach their ultimate goal.

Is it that expert leadership which identifies that ability in each one of us and engages us in the most memorable and rewarding service to serve you and Lordships.

Is it that compassion in you, where you spend hours hearing to individuals problems or giving group darshan. There is none who is not satisfied after seeing you.

Is it that expert preaching, where you use multiple languages to connect to different sects of audience and by giving the right message to individuals who needs it at the right time.

Is it that motivation you provide which helps even a neophytes to get inspired and take up Krishna Consciousness.

Is it that humour in you which makes the atmosphere lively and even the hardest situations seem lighter.

Is it that determination to carry out the most mammoth tasks even in the most challenging times?

Is it that cooperative mood which teaches us to tolerate each other limitations and work together towards the common goal of pleasing Srila Prabhupada and Yourself.

Is it the goodwill nature that you are kind to even people who challenge you.

Is it because you lead by example, we are able to learn the exact detail of how everything is to be performed by just watching you

Is it because you are grateful that you thank us even for the smallest service we render.

Is it because you are a visionary that you think years ahead and plan the future

Is it because you carry Gaura in your Heart, that you simply attract people from all walks of life all over the world.

The list is endless!

Like this each one of us grow by observing the good qualities in you, so I am hoping that a little bit would rub off in our consciousness.

Last year has been rewarding in terms of service I was able to perform. Supporting congregation book distribution, coordinating matajis sunday feast lecture, mangala-arati sweet preparation, cooking prasadam to senior vaishnavas . Thank you for providing me the blessings to perform the services. I beg you to bless us so we continue to do the service with right guidance and right attitude.   

Praying for your quick recovery dear Gurudev!

Your servant always,
Vraja Vinoda Devi Dasi
