Sumarekha (Hartford - United States of America)

Nama om visnu-padaya krsna-presthaya bhu-tale

Srimate jayapataka-svamin iti namine

Namo acharya padaya nitai kripa pradhayine

Gaura katha damodaya nagara grama tharine

 

Nama om visnu-padaya krsna-presthaya bhu-tale

Srimate bhaktivedanta-svamin iti namine

Namas te sarasvate deve gaura-vani-pracarine

Nirvisesa -sunyavadi-pascatya-desa-tarine

 

Om agnana timirandasya gnana anjana salakaya

Caksur unmilitam ena tasmayi sree gurave namah

 

 

Dear Guru Maharaj,

Please Accept My Respectful Obeisances

All Glories to Srila Prabhupada

All Glories to your Divine Grace

 

 My name is Sumarekha. My husband’s name is Pratap and our kids' names are Kavish and Rujula Thunga. We hail from Andhra Pradesh, India and currently live in Glastonbury, Connecticut. We lived in Woodbury, Minnesota three years ago. That is where we met Satyaraj Govinda prabhu and Acyutapreyasi mathaji. We were fortunate enough to meet these devotees and their family around Lord Krishnashtami through our neighbors. We were ordinary people; we had heard of Lord Krishna consciousness, but we weren’t completely involved in Lord Krishna consciousness.

 

But if it had not been for Satyaraj Govinda prabhu and Acyutapreyasi mathaji we would have not been on the path of Lord Krishna consciousness. They were the reason for us to get involved in Krishna consciousness. Now, we are more motivated by Satyaraj prabhu’s classes. Satyaraj Govinda prabhu also helped us to get in touch with other amazing devotees like Amani prabhu and their family. From there we started doing seva for Lord Krishna whenever we could. For past 2 years we are doing some seva here at ISKCON Connecticut temple.

 

We started chanting, as regularly as possible and now we make it part of our daily routine to chant the Hare Krishna maha mantra every day. We hope someday we can do 16 rounds of Hare Krishna everyday more regularly.

 

My children and myself attend online bhakthi Vriksha classes given by Satyaraj Govinda prabhu and we are currently in Krsna Sadhak level. Even though we try our best to serve Lord Krishna we still have a lot to learn from you. Your life experiences inspire us very much. Even though your Grace is facing many hardships you never forgot Lord Krishna and you’re always so immersed in devotional service to the Lord. It’s truly an honor having this opportunity to talk to you.

 

My family and I hope that someday because of Lord Krishna’s and your Grace blessings we will come to Mayapur and get Lord Radha Madhav, Pancha tattva, Nrsinga Dev, Jaganathan, Baladev and Subhadra’s darshan and also get your Grace blessings.

 

We hope with your divine grace blessings and Lord Krishna’s my family and I will be fully engaged in Krishna consciousness.                 

                                                                      

From your servants
