Hare Kṛṣṇa Guru Mahārāja
Please accept my most respectful obeisance unto your lotus feet. All glories to Śrīla Prabhupāda!! All glories to śrīla Gurudeva!!
All glories to your auspicious appearance day Gurudeva. I know Guru Mahārāja I am not qualified to glorify you but for my personal purification I am doing so.
Guru Mahārāja I am making a humble attempt to offer this homage unto your lotus feet. This is my first homage after you have given me initiation and accepted me as your spiritual daughter so for me this is a very special Gurudeva.
Your glories are unlimited and inconceivable Guru Mahārāja. You have been my constant inspiration for me in my bhakti life. You by your own example show us how we need to be a good disciple and should carry out instructions of one’s guru. From the time you have come in contact with Śrīla Prabhupāda you have always made sure you carry out all his orders diligently which is very inspiring for me to follow your footsteps Gurudeva. Even in your busy schedule you are getting all your bhakti degrees and inspiring such a fallen soul like me to utilize all the time I have got in the service to Guru and Gaurāṅga. You are the epitome of compassion and mercy. I always have read that guru is more merciful than Kṛṣṇa Himself but you have been a live example for me Gurudeva. I would like to share how you have always been reciprocating for all my prayers and showering your mercy on me. I had a desire to get initiated by you Guru Mahārāja but due to unfavorable circumstances my family was agreeing, I was very disappointed by it and then my mentor advised me to pray to you so I started praying to you every day. You were so merciful that just by your mercy my family agreed for my initiation and on October 2nd, 2023 you accepted me as your spiritual daughter. It was the most glorious day in my life Guru Mahārāja. You have made me cross over this material ocean even though I am totally unqualified you are showering your unlimited mercy on me Gurudeva at each phase of my bhakti life and for this I am eternally indebted to you Gurudeva.
You have always instructed that Bangalore must be the first Kṛṣṇa conscious city in the world. I am making humble efforts to follow your instructions and I am preaching about the Lord weekly once as per the guidance of my mentor. I seek your blessings Guru Mahārāja so that I can serve Śrīla Prabhupāda’s movement eternally.
I also beg at your lotus feet on this auspicious occasion of your appearance day that I get a devotee as my spiritual partner so that I can serve you and Śrīla Prabhupāda to the best of my capabilities.
If I have done any offense, I beg forgiveness at your Lotus feet Gurudeva and I always desire that you always be my spiritual master life after life and that I as your servant always render service unto your lotus feet.
Guru Mahārāja kī jaya!! Śrīla Prabhupāda kī jaya!!
Thank you,
Your insignificant servant and spiritual daughter,
Rādhā Sugopīka Devī Dāsī
