Dear Śrīla Gurudeva and our spiritual father,
Please accept my most humble obeisances unto your lotus feet. All glories to Śrīla Gurudev, All glories to Śrīla Prabhupāda.
On this auspicious occasion of your 69th birthday (the Vyasa-pūjā) celebrations 2019, I pray to Lord Narasiṁhadev to be merciful so that you regain your health and to give you long and healthy life and give you all protection so as to enable you to continuously distribute Kṛṣṇa prema to innumerable fallen conditioned souls and lead them to their real home, back to Godhead.
Guru Mahārāja, please forgive me for any offences I may have committed knowingly or unknowingly and beg for your blessings for my spiritual advancement and to serve guru mahārāja and Kṛṣṇa in a better way. In fact, I am unable to glorify you Guru Mahārāja as I am an ignorant and fallen conditioned soul. However, I try to make an attempt to glorify you, as you are my beloved spiritual father.
Guru Mahārāja, I always remember your spiritual activities. Though you are not able to do anything alone, you are very eager and serious about distributing Kṛṣṇa Prema to more fallen conditioned souls. Even after undergoing transplantat your only attention was to give more and more mercy to fallen conditioned souls and serve your Spiritual Master Śrīla Prabhupāda.
Śrīla Gurudev, please bless us and our nāmahaṭṭa Group so that we can overcome the present impediments and improve our ability to preach the glories of Guru and Gaurāṅga to the conditioned and fallen souls like me. Help me to be free of all offenses so I develop a taste for the Holy Names which you have instructed me to chant. You know everything I do; therefore I pray that everything I do – my behavior, my devotional service – be a source of pleasure to you.
We are living in South Vṛndāvan and doing services to their lordships, Rādhā Vṛndāvan Kṛṣṇa, Jagannāth, Baldev, Subhadramayi and Gaura Nityai on a day today basis. We conduct 2 BG classes out of the temple in a week. To continue our preaching here in Kerala we pray to Guru mahārāja’s blessings so that we could succeed in our endeavor as Kerala is a very difficult place for preaching.
My family joins me to wish you Guru Mahārāja many many happy returns of the day.
Hare Kṛṣṇa!
