Vyāsa-pūjā 2021

Śravaṇa Kīrtana dāsa (Mayapur - India)

Dear Guru Maharaja, 

All glories to Your Holiness. All glories to your tireless service to Srila Prabhupada! 

Please accept my humble obeisances at your divine lotus feet. 

 

O Gurudeva, you are an ocean of mercy for the fallen conditioned souls jailed in the material world. You are our only hope. The path of devotional service is filled with impediments for an anartha-infested soul like me. Just as an infant that holds onto something but cries because of thinking that the object he is holding onto is indeed his captor, my lusty mind holds onto material desires and cries and complains, stupidly thinking that material desires are solely outside forces, independent of my willingness to enjoy separately from the Lord, who is the connoisseur of all enjoyment. This faulty understanding deludes the mind and intelligence to convince the materially contaminated, sentimental chamber of my heart to attempt enjoying materially. Since this delusional deviance is not easy to let go of, you are my only hope of deliverance from such a rut. Therefore , on this auspicious day of your holy appearance, I sincerely implore your Holiness to shower your mercy upon this fallen servant of yours and bless me with the ability and willingness to apply the principle of yukta-vairagya in all situations in my life of Krsna consciousness and re-dedicate myself to continue serving you as an editor for Your Holiness’s Jps Archives Department. I also beseech you to kindly forgive me for the offenses I may have knowingly or unknowingly committed at your divine lotus feet.

 

Thanking Your Holiness for all that you have done for me and will continue to do for me as a caring spiritual father, I remain, 

Yours in Your service,
