Dear Śrīla Ācāryapāda,
Please accept my humble obeisances in the dust of your lotus feet. All glories to our beloved spiritual predecessor, Śrīla Prabhupāda! All glories to Your Divine Grace on the day of your transcendental appearance! Actually I am quite unfit to write a Vyāsa-pūjā offering for Your Divine Grace because fallen and foolish as I am, I hardly even know the true meaning of the Vyāsa-pūjā Celebration.
When Śrīla Prabhupāda left to the Supreme Abode, he asked you all to remain here and continue initiating disciples into this holy paramparā. You have taken this order as your very life and soul and getting so much experience by living in the holy dhāmas, and through your pure love to Śrīla Prabhupāda and Śrī Caitanya and Nityānanda, you have accepted the task to come all the way to this last corner of the world and do what Śrīla Prabhupāda told you to. For us this is a great wonder and at the same times a cause of celebration.
Thank you for allowing me to serve you in a close relationship with your disciples. To serve them and to take care of them is, for myself the only way If can actually advance and maintain myself in the fire of preaching and serving.
I beg you to please always consider and keep this fallen soul under the shade of your lotus feet, instructing me and chastising me as you like.
I wish to remain your servant,
Prahlādanātha Dāsa
