Dearest Guru Mahārājā,
Please accept my humble obeisances. All glories to Śrīla Prabhupāda. All glories to your unflinching faith, dedication, and unconditional loving services to Śrīla Prabhupāda in fulfilling the mission of Lord Caitanya Mahaprabhu. All glories to your unlimited love and care on this insignificant soul.
I’m an unqualified, insignificant soul and nowhere eligible to glorify you. But with your unconditional mercy and permission, I would like to attempt to say few words. Dear Guru Mahārāja, you are truly a personification of never give up service mood and devotee care. Your fighting nature, against all the material challenges is something beyond unimaginable. Bearing all the material pains and still working tirelessly in teaching Kṛṣṇa Consciousness was, is and will only be possible to you. Your loving nature, humour, dare, caring for most rotten souls like us makes you so special in our lives.
Guru Mahārāja, I really thank you from the bottom of my heart for giving me the shelter protection and guiding in the path of Kṛṣṇa Consciousness. I beg for your forgiveness for all the offences I’ve committed unto you knowingly or unknowingly. I also beg for your mercy to bless me so that I can work with all the Vaiṣṇavas cooperatively without offending anyone. I am and will be very much indebted to you and promising to do whatever service you instruct me to do. I sincerely beg you to accept me as your disciple by giving Diksha.
With your blessings and mercy, I would like to offer you the service of doing the Bhakti-vṛkṣa /Outreach Programmes in as many areas as possible. There are many challenges in the current Bhakti-vṛkṣa programme in terms of inspiring people in taking up Kṛṣṇa Consciousness and practicing devotional service. So, I sincerely beg for your mercy in this. Also, I would like to offer the service of doing Harinaam Saṅkīrtana in every street possible and also distributing the books to every person which is entirely possible with your mere mercy. Please make me as your instrument like a stick in your hand doing whatever you wish.
I sincerely pray to Lord Kṛṣṇa, Caitanya Mahaprabhu, the entire Guru Parampara, Śrīla Prabhupaad to give you everlasting strength so that you can deliver many more fallen souls like me with the path of Kṛṣṇa Consciousness. I once again pay my humble obeisances unto your lotus feet Guru mahārāja and wish to celebrate many more such wonderful occasions.
Your Insignificant Servant Always,
Rajesh Kassa
