Gurudeva,
We are very fortunate to celebrate your 70th appearance day- Vyāsa-pūjā Mahotsava in your most dearest place, Māyāpur this year. We all are very happy to have your darśan almost every day through the online live classes you are giving via Facebook, though we all are situated far away in different places. Your determination to serve and please Śrīla Prabhupāda instructions gives us immense hope and enthusiasm how one can please a guru by following his instructions in spite of all odds.
You are a great inspiration to us all. We are ever grateful to be your disciples though we are not qualified or eligible to be so. Your mercy is limitless. In spite of difficult circumstances, you continue spreading the glories of Lord Caitanya all over the world. Your physical well-being is the spiritual well-being for thousands of devotees world-wide. We pray to the Lordships Rādhā Madhav, Panchatattva, Narasiṁha dev, to give you immense strength and health to bestow kṛṣṇa prema to many more fallen souls like us to join this movement in the coming years by your divine presence.
Gurudeva, by your mercy, in our yatra Kṛṣṇa Katha Desh, we have adapted Bhakti-vṛkṣa system to bring many new devotees which is very successful to our present condition. By your blessings, children classes which we started here in 2011 for all age groups (4 yrs to 16 yrs) running successfully with the cooperation of all devotees. Please continue to shower your blessings upon us so we can sincerely serve you with all our heart and soul in spreading this movement forward without any hindrance and also in achieving 222 Bhakti-vṛkṣas target by year 2022.
I seek for your mercy & blessings to give me both intellectual & physical strength to render the assigned services allotted to me to the best of my ability along with my personal sādhana.
My daughters, Gayatri & Gowri join me in wishing Your Holiness A Very Happy 70th Appearance Day.
Your insignificant disciple,
