Bandhu Baladeva dāsa (Dāmodara Deśa - Middle East)

Respected Guru Maharaj

Please accept my humble obeisances. I have no words to describe your unwavering commitment to the mission of Srila Prabhupada. You have faced all kinds of problems / obstacles anyone can even think of and come out of them stronger than ever. You are a living example of SB 11.17.27 and always demonstrate that you are never on the material platform by :

(a) Enquiring about devotees health / welfare even when close to half of your material body is paralysed. I have heard that you continue to crack jokes / maintain humourous conversation to lighten the mood even when going through tremendous internal bodily pain.

(b) Giving FB classes even when going through a do or die operation.

(c) Checking with the doctor about being able to fly to other countries for preaching right after your operation.

(d) Initiating prospective devotees putting personal health at great risk.

I am aware that I have no qualification to be your disciple and it is only your ahaituki kripa that I have been accepted as one. I pray to you to bless me to be strongly connected to your lotus feet (tvadīya-pada-paṅkaja-pañjarāntam).

Your insignificant servant
