Vyāsa-pūjā 2023

Krishna Mohan Golla (Bangalore - Whitefield - India)

Hare Kṛṣṇa Dear Guru Mahārāja,

Please accept my respectful humble obeisances unto your lotus feet.

All glories to Śrīla Prabhupāda.

All glories to your auspicious appearance day.

I understand from one of your lecture – “Worshipping the instructions of spiritual master must be the life and soul of disciple rather than personal association”. You have been exemplary in following this rule and inspiring so many devotees to take up the mission of spiritual master. I could find – as in Jayapatākā Swami Official App under Instruction Project – how you have always been meditating and trying to fulfil the instructions of Śrīla Prabhupāda even under difficult health conditions.

By regularly taking Caitanya-līlā Book compilation online zoom classes, you are preaching tirelessly and always guiding fallen conditioned souls like me to practice pure devotional service.

By your causeless mercy You have accepted me as your surrendered disciple on 19 Jun 2022. Though I suffered from hairline spine fracture taking full bedrest during Aug-Oct, thinking about you gave me enthusiasm in doing sādhana and preaching as Bhakti-vṛkṣa leader. I remember your words about the secret of your enthusiasm – “Remembering how Śrīla Prabhupāda underwent so many difficulties to spread Kṛṣṇa consciousness and thinking how indebted we are to Śrīla Prabhupāda, your enthusiasm increased more everyday”.

I’m now serving as Bhakti-vṛkṣa leader under the leadership of His Grace Harikṣetra Prabhujī, Center Head of ISKCON Whitefield, His Grace Kartikeya Prabhujī and His Grace Kṛṣṇa Karunamurti Prabhujī. In our Bhakti-vṛkṣa, we daily meet in the morning for Japa session online (5:30-6:30am) and in the evening for Bhagavad-gītā As It Is reading session online (9:00-9:30pm). In addition, I’m posting daily Vanimedia (5-10mins) Lectures of Śrīla Prabhupāda with questions from the lecture. In this way BV members are properly connected to Śrīla Prabhupāda through hearing lectures and reading books and become good recipients of tasting Bhakti. I’d like to offer these services and continue doing services for your pleasure.

I’m mostly daily reading Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam taking enthusiasm from your daily update in Jayapatākā Swami App – how you are managing to read daily Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam despite occupied with lot of preaching and services.

Having completed Bhakti-Śāstrī course in 2021 and reading 1-9 cantos of Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam, I registered to Bhakti-vaibhava course which commences on 20th Mar 2023.

I humbly beg at your lotus feet to shower your choicest blessings –

1. Unto our family so that we can continue doing services diligently to assist in your mission of fulfilling the instructions of Śrīla Prabhupāda – without any tinge of contamination such as lābha, pūjā, and pratiṣṭhā.

2. Unto our Bhakti-vṛkṣa family so that they can become more inspired to practice bhakti and serve the mission of Śrīla Prabhupāda in different capacities.

Begging forgiveness for my offences knowingly and unknowingly in my services.

Your insignificant servants,

Kṛṣṇa Gokuleśa Dāsa (dīkṣa disciple)

Sirisha (aspiring disciple)
