Dear Guru Mahārāja,
Please accept my humble obeisances unto your divine lotus feet.
All glories to Śrī Śrī Guru and Gaurāṅga!
All glories to Śrīla Prabhupāda!
Dear Gurudeva,
I have been associated with the ISKCON Bangalore - New Rājāpur Jagannātha dhāma temple for about 3 years. I have been attending the programs and taking the association of the devotees in this temple. I have been chanting 16 rounds. I usually comes 2-3 times to temple per each week, and help in flower sevā and cleaning services in temple. I am very happy after coming to Kṛṣṇa Conscious process. Still so much I am in ignorance. I humbly seek your mercy and blessings so that I come out of the ignorance.
Guru Maharaj, I came to know about your glories from your disciples in this temple. I developed strong desire to take your Darshan and serve you, though I am not at all qualified. I am aspiring to take shelter at your Lotus feet as soon as possible by your mercy and blessings. I strongly desire to accept Dīkṣā as soon as possible from you Guru Mahārāja. If ever I accept Dīkṣā, I only desire to receive it from you Guru Mahārāja. I have strong desire to serve Lord Jagannātha, Lord Baladeva and Subhadrā mā deities. I humbly seek your mercy and blessings for all this to happen and for my spiritual growth.
My prabhu Raju is not inclined to Kṛṣṇa Conscious process and not inclined to come to temple. We underwent some problems and challenges between both of us. Because of that recently, I could not come to temple for 2 months. Out of Lord's mercy and devotee's mercy, he changed a bit and now I got the permission to come to temple. I strongly desire that he get to know about Guru's and Gaurāṅga's mercy. I strongly desire for him to do Vaiṣṇava sevā, to serve you, and to takes up Kṛṣṇa Conscious process immediately and always be engaged in the service of Guru and Gaurāṅga in the association of devotees, to surrender at your lotus feet. I humbly seek your mercy and blessings upon him for all this to happen.
I strongly desire for my daughter Yashasvee to take up Kṛṣṇa Conscious process and always be engaged in the service Guru and Gaurāṅga in the association of devotees. I humbly seek your mercy and blessings upon her for all this to happen.
I strongly desire for my sister Lakṣmī, her prabhu Nārāyaṇa, their daughter Tejasvini, Umā, my mother Gayātrāmma to take up Kṛṣṇa Conscious process and always be engaged in the service Guru and Gaurāṅga in the association of devotees. I humbly seek your mercy and blessings upon all of them for all this to happen.
I humbly seek your mercy and blessings so that we, our family members, will be able to do a steady devotional service at home and we always be in the association of devotees.
Guru Mahārāja, your mercy and blessings alone can make this to happen for us.
Your Humble and Insignificant Servant,
Ambikā (Aspiring)
