Vyāsa-pūjā 2024

Śuddhātmā Nityānanda dāsa (Kṛṣṇa Kathā Deśa - Middle East)

Dear Guru Mahārāja,

Please accept our respectful obesiences unto your lotus feet.

All glories to Śrīla Prabhupāda.

All glory to your auspicious appearance day!

nama oṁ viṣṇu-pādāya Kṛṣṇa-preṣṭhāya bhū-tale

śrīmate jayapatākā-svāmin iti nāmine

namo ācāryapādāya nitāi-kṛpa-pradāyine

gaura-kathā dhāma dāya nagara-grāma tāriṇe

The year 2023 was very special and much awarding for our family as you bestow your mercy upon all of us. My daughter Prasanna Vrajeśvari devī dāsī received her first initiation from you in Kolkata. Further on December 6th you blessed me and my wife by accepting us as your Dīkṣā disciples and renaming us as Śuddhātma Nityānanda dāsa and Mālati Jāhnavā devī dāsī. We are one of those fortunate souls which you chose to accept as your disciples or we would be roaming in this material world life after life. I will try my best to follow the vows given during the Dīkṣā ceremony. Dear Guru Mahārāja, me and Malati Jāhnavā devī dāsī enrolled for Bhakti-śāstrī  through ISKCON Bhagvat Mahavidyalaya. My wife completed the full course, however, I am still completing some portion of it. I am not happy with my performance in the Bhakti-śāstrī course hence I am willing to repeat the course in English.

My wife with three daughters are residing in Śrīdhāma Māyāpur happily under the guidance of our sīkṣā Gurus. We are all at the mercy of Gaurāṅga and Nityanand Prabhu. We are praying to Lord Narasiṁha to remove all obstacles to the construction of “Śrī Rādhā Gopal Nilaya” at Māyāpur Dhāma. With your mercy, my wife can serve Vaiṣṇavas in Māyāpur Dhāma.

We were delighted to see you were conferred with the Bhaktivedanta degree. We are inspired by you. I wish that I could develop a tinge of enthusiasm and persistence as you to study Sastras and the courses. I hope that I can serve you with more enthusiasm.

His Holiness Jayapatākā Guru Mahārāja ki Jai!

Your eternally humble servants,

Śuddhātmā Nityānanda dāsa
