Vyāsa-pūjā 2024

Lakṣmīpriyā Sundarī devī dāsī (Bari - Italy)

Dear Spiritual Father,
Please accept my most respectful obeisances to Your Divine lotus feet. All glories to Śrīla Prabhupāda and all glories to You.
Another year has passed and by Śrīla Prabhupāda and’s mercy, You are still here with us.

This year, after many years, your visit to Italy was a deeply profound and unforgettable experience. Your compassion, mercy, and the effortless grace of your consciousness draw all beings towards you. As time goes by, I increasingly realize the immense fortune I have received, the refuge at Your lotus feet.
I aspire to fully seek refuge at Your divine lotus feet, because only in this way can I find solace and give relief to some soul dispersed in this material world and liberate myself from the burdensome ego...
I don't know if I have ever expressed my gratitude, yet I trust that the appreciation I hold for You and Śrīla Prabhupāda, coupled with unwavering faith, will forever thrive in my heart. It is through this enduring gratitude and faith that I can nurture the seed of bhakti, lovingly sown by You, within my heart. I am certain that You will return to Kṛṣṇa, and I earnestly desire that it occurs only when You so choose. As for myself, I am unsure if I will be adequately prepared, yet I hope to possess the strength to consistently sense Your guidance and never stray from, My sole apprehension is the possibility of Māyā drawing me back.

You, who without knowing me, have always shown care, nurtured me, and lifted me from my missteps You are my life, my real father, You are infinitely compassionate.

Your humble servant,
Lakṣmīpriyā Sundarī devī dāsī
