Dearest Guru Mahārāja!
Please accept my humble obeisances . All glories to your devotional service at the lotus feet of His DIvine Grace Srila Prabhupada !
All glories to Srila Prabhupada !
On this auspicious occasion of your Vyasa Puja , I place my heavy head of pride and arrogance, at the dust of your lotus feet, that have travelled the world’s nook and corner with the message of His Divine Grace, to affect many souls with Prema Bhakti.
Please pardon my unlimited offenses to your Divine Grace due to my immaturity.
The picture of you rendering relentless service from the wheel chair and the reclining hospital bed is a great source of inspiration to me and many, in responsibility and accountability and more than anything, Love.
When Srila Prabhupada said “Do as I do “ this is what he meant.
By giving your disciples the freedom to function as per their understanding and individuality, and so reap the results in devotional service while at the same time realising the responsibility to perform in your exemplary rendering of devotional service, you have been a true Acharya for all times to come.
With your vast experience of an institutional devotee , you have amazingly done the greatest out-of-the-box outreach ever in history ! While exploding and expanding the breadth of outreach through congregational preaching and other varied unique methods you have demonstrated that there is no limit to ingenuity in preaching the message of Lord Chaitanya, if one so desires .
Satisfying simultaneously the previous Acharya’s and developing Mayapur as envisioned by Srila Prabhupada , establishing the legacy of Srila Prabhupada s teachings in word act and deed relentlessly, handling numerous challenges simultaneously and still remaining a fresh and vibrant Vaishnava , is an amazing impossible feat that everyone looks up to in your divine Grace.
On this auspicious day I again beg for forgiveness for all offenses and gratefully thank your Divine Grace for tolerating me in your service and request that you to bless me with your mercy to be successful in bringing more and more souls to the shelter of Srila Prabhupada s institution in contribution to the “unlimited expansion” that you have been charged with by Srila Prabhupada .
All devotees serving here at the Kovai Chandra Project in Coimbatore and surrounding areas and in Kerala request your very special grace to successfully complete the projects undertaken to satisfy your Divine Grace s order.
Begging at your lotus feet
I remain,
Your Servant
Bhakti VInoda Swami
