Dear Guru, Mahārājā,
Please accept my humble obeisances to your lotus feet.
All glories to Śrīla Prabhupāda. All glories to Your Divine Grace.
This year we are celebrating Your Divine grace's 70th year appearance day. This day is very auspicious for all living entities in this material world. Lord Kṛṣṇa is so merciful and compassionate when He sends His pure devotees to this material world to preach Kṛṣṇa Consciousness to the fallen souls like me.
Your Divine Grace gave me Initiation out of your causeless mercy and continuously show the light to the spiritually blind person like me.
You are so merciful even in your health condition. You are not taking a minute of rest and you are eager to preach Kṛṣṇa conscious to everyone. When you were in the Hospital in ICU, your Divine Grace changed the ICU as Māyāpur Dhama. Nurses and Doctors called you “Guru Maharaj” and they listened to your lectures from Internet. Nurses told that they never saw a transplant patient who is as co-operative as your Divine Grace. I came to know all these from regular Heath updates of Mahavaraha Dasa, I used to weep reading about the difficulty you were undergoing in the Hospital and am chanting more rounds and circumambulating Tulasi Maharani more times. I am amazed to see how your Divine grace extend yourself for preaching in spite of your physical difficulties. Your Divine Grace has surpassed all kinds of material challenges.
May Lord Kṛṣṇa bless us so that you will be with us physically as many years as possible to guide us personally to improve our devotional life and protect future of ISKCON.
Thank you very much for everything you have done to me.
Your humble servant,
Sarvanātha Śrīnivasa dāsa
