Hare Krishna*
*Jai Guru Gauranga Jayate*
Srila Prabhupada Ki Jay!
Srila Jaypataka Swami Gurumaharaja Ki Jay!
Please accept my humble obeissances unto your lotus feet dear Gurudeva.
First I would like to pray to Nrisingha deva to make you healthier and
help you to serve Srila Prabhupada and his movement as long as you wish.
Vyasa-puja means celebrating and appreciating the coming down of transcendental knowledge in the line of bonafide Spiritual Masters. Today it is our pleasure to celebrate and appreciate the appearance day of our beloved guru.
Gurudeva I am really unqualified but I am very very thankful to you for giving me your causeless mercy.
Your love, affection and commitment to work are commendable. Your commitment in spreading Krishna consciousness by Bhakti Vriksha programme is praiseworthy. By your dedication and sacrifice to serve Prabhupada you have taken ISKCON forward. Wherever you go that place gets purified because the Lord goes along with you. You are very expert and most intelligent in understanding things as they are and you don’t care for any personal comforts, unafraid for any condition of life, this to the point that you have survived a deadly brain stroke after which you continued your service with determination.
Simply by remembering yourself, your instructions also come to my mind, which gives a lot of strength and determination to practice devotional service. The principle of serving the guru is central to Vedic culture, for no one can make spiritual advancement or lead a pious life without the guidance and blessings of a guru. I beg your bountiful blessings to initiate the start of a new Bhakti Vriksha satsang maharaj. Although my knowledge is very limited, I want to start this project as an offering to you and also for my own personal purification. I’m solely dependant on you so that I can be an insignificant entity helping you in carrying Krishna prema to many more living entities who will cherish the nama of the lord. Little do I at this time realize how this service is so important to Srila Prabupad and you Maharaj. Please bless me Maharaj as this Bhakthi Vriksha can be carried on without any interruptions ONLY with your blessings.
Please forgive me if I have made any offence knowingly or unknowingly.
Please bless me and keep me always at the dust of your lotus feet.
Ever willing to be in your service
