Yadubara Govinda Dāsa (Avatārī Deśa - Middle East)

1. Guru-vandana:

nama oṁ viṣṇu-pādāya kṛṣṇa-preṣṭhāya bhū-tale
śrīmate jayapatāka svāmin iti nāmine
nama ācaryapādāya nitāi-kṛpā-pradāyine
gaura-kathā-dhāma-dāya nagara-grāma-tāriṇe

2. We feel very much blissful to have the mercy on us of His Holiness Guru Mahārāja as accepted us as your servitors to spread the mission of Śrīla Prabhupāda Kṛṣṇa consciousness. We pray to the supreme personality of Godhead, that our dear Guru Mahārāja physical health to be intact and to guide us in the path of devotional service.

3. Our sincere whole-hearted daṇḍavat praṇāmas to our dearest Guru Mahārāja His Holiness Jayapatākā Swami Mahārāja’s divine lotus feet. Upon your blessings only we are doing little sevā to please guru and Gaurāṅga. Our wish is that your blessings to shower on us life after life.

4. We take this opportunity to update you that by guru and Gaurāṅga’s mercy, we started our Bhakti-vṛkṣa classes in English to please you Guru Mahārāja and the Supreme Personality of Godhead Kṛṣṇa. Also, my wife Haripriyā Hemāṅgī Devī Dāsī started Kannada medium Bhakti-vṛkṣa by the mercy of devotees. This is possible only by the mercy of our śīkṣā-guru’s His Grace Rāma Kṛṣṇa Dāsa and Her Grace Śacī Yaśodā Devī Dāsī and by your mercy Guru Mahārāja. We try to fulfil our śīkṣā-gurus wish truly and full heartedly. We would continue to spread the Kṛṣṇa’s message to our colleagues, friends and relatives.

5. Even though my office timing and work nature is bit better compare to others, I will try my level best to perform the prescribed duties and allotted seva honestly. Sometime myself think that to drop my prescribed duty to progress in Kṛṣṇa consciousness. Since taken-up the gṛhastha, we will balance the work life and spiritual life accordingly, but not numerably. Any offense committed while engaged in the service, please do shower your blessings. Also, since I do not have the memory power to recall the class messages feels sometimes a burden to guru’s.

6. We are engaged in inspiring others, preaching to friends and relatives through the Bhakti-vṛkṣa classes and especially inspiring our office colleagues to support Guru Mahārāja’s mission to fulfill His Divine Grace Śrīla Prabhupāda’s mission.

7. Spreading awareness of dhāma’s service is dear to us and spreading the Kṛṣṇa’s message as it is told by our gurus/ācāryas, we would offer our service to gurudeva daily.

8. We would be so blessed, if Guru Mahārāja would pray for our spiritual progress and bless. Our sincere whole-hearted prayers to Lord Narasiṁhadeva for the special blessings on Guru Mahārāja’s for his good health.

9. We are getting some chances to preach in other groups to please the devotees. Also, I have got chance to preach in the maṅgala-ārati program by the mercy of senior devotees. Please bless me Guru Mahārāja and shower your blessings on us to get more and more opportunity to preach.

HARIBOL… Jaya Guru Mahārāja… Jaya Gurudeva.

Yours ever inspiring servants,

Yadubara Govinda Dāsa
