Vyāsa-pūjā 2022

Dīna Dayālu dāsa (Pune - India)

oṁ ajñāna-timirāndhasya jñānāñjana-śalākayā
cakṣur unmīlitaṁ yena tasmai śrī-gurave namaḥ

Śrīla Gurudeva

Please accept my humble obeisances. All glories to Śrīla Prabhupāda.

All glories to your auspicious appearance day.

Śrīla Gurudeva. I am very much indebted to you for accepting me as your servant and giving me shelter at your lotus feet.

It will not be possible to repay the same as I was living like a conditioned soul entangled in the material activities and its temporary results until I was initiated by taking Hari-nāma dīkṣā in the year 1980 from you, Guru Mahārāja. It’s indeed your causeless mercy upon me—

brahmāṇḍa bhramite kona bhāgyavān jīva
guru-kṛṣṇa-prasāde pāya bhakti-latā-bīja
[Cc Madhya 19.151]

Without the mercy of the spiritual master and Kṛṣṇa, the seed of devotional service cannot be planted in the heart.

I must have performed many pious activities in the previous lifetimes so as to get dīkṣā from you, Guru Mahārāja.

I have been following your instructions to preach by lecturing via YouTube video telecast and I have started giving Bhāgavatam lectures for Pune temples

In YouTube. With your mercy, Śrīla Gurudeva, I will soon begin to give Bhagvad-gītā lectures on YouTube also.

Guru Mahārāja, I have been praying to Śrī Narasiṁhadeva for giving longer life to you and for your good health as we all disciples are completely dependent on your guidance, timey instructions and protection and we wish you to install Śrī Śrī Rādhā Mādhava in TOVP at Māyāpur in 2023.

Your wonderful instructions in the fortnightly Newsletters are very much helpful for strengthening our Kṛṣṇa consciousness and your daily lectures on Caitanya-caritāmṛta are just like nectar.

I always recall my close association with you Guru Mahārāja on 1985 when you had visited Nairobi, Kenya and stayed in our house and thus given opportunity for direct service at your lotus feet.

Desiring to have your mercy

Yours obedient servant,

Dīna Dayālu Dāsa (dīkṣā)

India (Pune)
