Vyāsa-pūjā 2023

Sukamalā Priyasakhi Devī Dāsī (Sydney - Australia)

Hare Kṛṣṇa beloved and dear most Guru Mahārāja,

Please accept our humble obeisance’s at your lotus feet! All glories to Śrīla Prabhupāda and all glories to you!

On this auspicious occasion of your holy appearance day, I am drenched in your grace and my heart is full of gratitude. I just have one word to say to you Guru Mahārāja which is THANK YOU, Thank you, Thank you so much for being in our lives.

“By the mercy of the spiritual master one receives the benediction of Kṛṣṇa. Without the grace of the spiritual master, one cannot make any advancement.”

Thank you from the bottom of my heart for accepting us as your disciples, for making us part of your loving family. It is only because of you that I am trying to do little service to The Lord and His devotees. You are an ocean of mercy and always keep motivating us.

Many times in groups, or a community or any organization it is the hard work, integrity, sincerity and purity of one individual that is sustaining the whole organization. And in our lives that one individual is you Guru Mahārāja, who is keeping our Kṛṣṇa consciousness alive. We are doing our sādhana, seva, reading and chanting but it’s all outside make up. What is actually keeping us alive in our Kṛṣṇa consciousness, what is actually keeping us alive in our spiritual lives is your constant and continuous prayers that you do to Shri Shri Rādhā Mādhava to keep us physically, mentally, spiritually healthy. Thank you so much Guru Mahārāja for being in our lives. Guru Mahārāja, I am a toddler in spiritual life. Just like a toddler needs constant attention, care and guidance of the mother to feel safe and grow well, I need your constant blessings, guidance and inspiration. On this very auspicious occasion of your Vyāsa-pūjā, I beg at your lotus feet to keep me, my husband and kids always under your shelter, in your prayers.

We always pray to Śrī Śrī Rādhā Gopīnātha for your good health and long life, as we all need you so badly. We are amazed seeing your willpower, your determination, your desire to help devotees and the conviction with which you are spreading Kṛṣṇa consciousness world-wide. How beautifully you are carrying the instructions of your spiritual master, Śrīla Prabhupāda, in spite of all the challenges you are having. You are a big inspiration to all of us and we would not have been able to follow the path of bhakti, if we did not have you and your blessings in our lives.

It is amazing to see how in this health condition also, you just desire to be in Māyāpur amongst the devotees and go extra miles to spread Kṛṣṇa consciousness. I pray to the Lordships if we could imbibe only.01% of your qualities and try to follow your footsteps to help in Śrīla Prabhupāda’s mission.

Thank you so much for your constant love, affection, reciprocation and all your unlimited blessings. I remember how you have always showered your mercy upon Viaan Kṛṣṇa and Veda Priya, how you have done most of the samskaras for them. Every time we visit India, with your mercy we were able to have your darśana. Please always give your blessings so that we can grow in our spiritual lives and become better devotees and make you feel proud. Please bestow your mercy upon us.

Please take care of yourself and have a wonderful, grand Vyāsa-pūjā celebration in Śrī Dhāma Māyāpur. We all Sydney disciples will miss you and with your mercy, we will try to have a great celebration here too.

Once again, thank you Guru Mahārāja for everything. Please forgive us if we have committed any offences.

Yours eternal spiritual children,

Sukomala Priyasakhi Devī Dāsī,

Vrajendra Gopīnātha Dāsa,

Viaan Kṛṣṇa and Veda Priya
