Hare Krishna!

Om agyana timirandhasya gyananjana shalakaya chakshurunmilitam yena tasmai Sri Guruve namaha.

Dear Guru Maharaj,

Please accept our respectful obeisances at your Lotus feet.

All glories to srila Prabhupada.

All glories to your devin grace.

 

Srila Prabhupada had given you many instructions and you are following them with great enthusiasm.In 1968 Srila Prabhupad told you to be a member of Lord Krishna Chaitanya Mahaprabhu's army.You have not only joined this transcendental army but you have been great inspiration for all of us to join this army.

Srila Prabhupada had said that you are eternal associate of Chaitanya Mahaprabhu,so open handedly you are giving Nitai Kripa to all of us always.

Though you have many difficulties then also you always stand strong in spreading Guru and Krishna Chaitanya's mercy to all fallen souls.One of the great character of a soldier is that he never gives up and we have been seeing this practically shown by you and also we have been hearing from the great leaders of Iskcon about you.Though you have so many physical difficulties but still you have been traveling around the world for preaching and during the time of covid19 also you have not stopped (Fight Invisible virus with Invisible mantra) your fight is on, daily and we have benefited most at this time.Since 2020 from the time of lockdown you have been delivering Compilation of Chaitanya Lila class daily on YouTube, Facebook, Zoom and zooming in to our life in our home giving us lots of joy,bliss and blessings traveling around the world daily.Though corona virus sneekedin to you and your personal servants,you never stopped, you delivered daily.we are so much addicted to your Chaitanya Lila class and very excited to meet everyone on Zoom during home visit, it's kind of get-together, daily everyone of us are cellibrating with you dear Guru Maharaj.

I prayed but didn't thought that you will go to Mishriganj (U.P) my home town but it's your greatness that you are visiting each and every individual of us daily and accepting the prashadam we offer and giving opportunity to serve you and everyday it is like festival because lot of devotees offer big feast and we get special darshan of dities from around the world mainly on Saturday as we have you H H Jayapataka Swami Maharaj as a walking Bhagvat with us.

We were very fortunate and blessed to have you with us at Iskcon Rajgadh (Sri Sri Radha Damodar Mandir). Early days when I came at Rajgadh from bangalore(after wedding)I was not able to hear your class because of network issues,I had Jio sim.Daily I was praying to Sri Sri Radha Damodar and to you Guru Maharaj and it took time but one day I got to know that they have put one big Jio tower very next to our temple,so from then by your mercy I am able to hear your class daily and lucky to have you with us daily.

On JPS app.you are posting all your activities that you daily and setting up a special example for us to read Srimad Bhagvat daily, attend morning program.I am happy to inform you today we are going to start reading SB tenth canto with your blessings.

We are so much thankful to you for praying for us daily in front of Sri Sri Radha Madhav,Ashta Sakhi,Mayapur Chandra, Giriraj,Pancha tattva, Prahalad Narsimha, Jagannath,Baladev, Subhadra Mai of Sri Sri Rajapur Dham and giving us their Lordships daily Mangal Arti darshan from Sri Sri Mayapur Dham.

Guru Maharaj as you said that my descipal should be ghoshtyanandi,so here at our temple we preach to who ever comes to have darshan with our daily services.we go for a place Shirwal in alternative weeks a day to preach as its almost one and half hours from our temple,my husband Kurunandan Das,me and other devotees are also going for preaching.

During December month as Srila Prabhupad books were distributed to school children as part of Srila Prabhupad book Marathon, some of the school girls came to temple for darshan after reading Srila Prabhupad Bhagvat Geeta as it is,they agreed to come for Bhagvat Geeta class on Sunday,they came few days but not regular,Guru Maharaj please bless that I can preach them nicely.

I am doing Bhakti Shastri online from Narsimha Giridhari Mandir (Bangalore)HG Vraj Vihari Das pr ji giving class for us from Washington DC weekly once on Saturday, please bless us so that we can complete this course successfully and serve you dear Guru Maharaj, Gauranga and vishnavas nicely and they get pleased.

I am sending our temple dities darshan once in a week to your email hope you liked dear Guru Maharaj.

I would like to thank Shyam Rasik pr for telling us importance of writing vyaspuja homage and Guru Maharaj's all personal servants (my God brothers and sisters) to be so mercyful on us and serving Guru Maharaj nicely.

There is lot to say but words fall short.

All of us are praying for you always to be in good health and we keep receiving your mercy always my dearest Guru Maharaj! Happy 72 Vyaspuja!

Thankyou
