Vyāsa-pūjā 2022

Tejasvinī Viṣṇupriyā Devī Dāsī (Florianópolis - Brazil)

Dear GuruMahārāja, please accept my most sincere obeisances.

All glories to Śrīla Prabhupāda.

Gurudeva, I write this simple letter in honor of the special occasion of your appearance!

This closed cycle was a year of many changes, tests and determination.

For you, the past year was also accompanied by surprises.

However, even with his health failing, his faith remained unshakable.

Your spiritual commitment to your disciples and aspirants, reminding us of the importance of reading Prabhupāda's books and chanting the mahā-mantra, proves what a great soul you are.

Even with possible health difficulties, his consciousness remained full, proving his mind transcendental to this material body.

His love and care for his disciples and for the future of the spiritual life of each person sheltered in his care is an example of how a truly loving soul works.

Thank you for your mercy, Gurudeva, for allowing me to shelter at your lotus feet, which are filled with the transcendental dust of caitanya mahāprabhu!

I hope I can follow your instructions and hopefully one day have some of your sweetness and compassion.

May the supreme lord in his infinite mercy allow us to enjoy his teachings daily for many more years to come!

Thank you for all the love and teaching, Gurudeva!

From her handmaiden, Tejasvinī Viṣṇupriyā Devī Dāsī.
