Vyāsa-pūjā 2023

Puruṣa-śakti Dāsa (Florence - Villa Vrindavan - Italy)

    Villa Vrindavana March 6, 2023-03-06

In reference to the Vyāsa-pūjā of my dearest Spiritual Master His Holiness Jayapatākā Swami Mahārāja, I extend my most respectful obeisances:

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

I continue to admire Your classes and teachings; “make the teachings from the lotus mouth of the spiritual master become one with your heart, and desire nothing else (Śrīla Narottama Dāsa Ṭhākura)”. After so many years, despite the problems and difficult situations due to health problems of the material body, You continue without interruption to give mercy, instructions and distribute to everyone the teachings of Lord Caitanya Mahāprabhu, the saṅkīrtana movement, constantly following the instructions of the Your spiritual master His Divine Grace Śrīla Prabhupāda who wanted to spread Kṛṣṇa consciousness all over the planet. If we want to get out of the complicated and miserable condition of this material world, we have to accept the directions given by the sastras, and You give us these directions, this is real intelligence; I continually admire Your example and Your strength and the continuous initiations of mercy You give. You wish to bring everyone You meet, even disqualified person like me, in the spiritual world.

I still have the CD, where You sing beautifully holy names, that You gave me many years ago at a Ratha-yātrā festival in Viareggio (Italy-maybe 1993) and I still listen to it.

I really hope that Kṛṣṇa and Lord Caitanya Mahāprabhu help You so that You can stay on this earth for a long time with us so we can continue to have Your mercy, association and instruction.

Unfortunately, it has been a long time since I have been able to see You personally, last time was in London in England, but I hope in the near future to come to Māyāpur in India to meet You personally.

I bow to Your lotus feet, your servant,

Puruṣa Śakti Dāsa
