Dear Śrīla Prabhupāda,
Please accept our most humble obeisances. It is a great honor for us to approach you with this small offering on the day of your Vyāsa-pūjā.
We are immensely grateful to you for giving our temple and small community a special place in your great work. We feel your presence in our lives and in our hearts. Without exaggeration or flowery words, our lives lose all meaning without you. You have given us everything: a path, a place to serve, amazing Deities, the holy name, the spirit of service, and an amazing example of spiritual achievement.
It is difficult to express in words how much we appreciate all of this and how much we value our relationship with you. We understand that true devotion is demonstrated through our actions, deeds, and lives. We hope that we can use our lives to express what is in our hearts and souls, and that will be more meaningful than any words.
Thank you, dear Śrīla Prabhupāda. We love you very much. You are our life and soul.
In the dust of your lotus feet,
Gaura Saṅga Vaiṣṇava Community
Ufa, Russia
