Vraja Kṛṣṇa dāsa (Mayapur - India)

Hare Krishna Guru Maharaja,

Please accept my humble obeisances

All glories to Srila Prabhupada

I came across with this verse from SB and I remembered you Guru Maharaj.

It sayṣ

“Pṛthu Mahārāja continued: How can such persons, who have rendered unlimited service by explaining the path of self-realization in relation to the Supreme Personality of Godhead, and whose explanations are given for our enlightenment with complete conviction and Vedic evidence, be repaid except by folded palms containing water for their satisfaction? Such great personalities can be satisfied only by their own activities, which are distributed amongst human society out of their unlimited mercy.” SB 4.22.47

 

We really can’t repay for what you did for all of us. You don’t even require anything from us because You are fully satisfied with your own activities. It’s only our requirement to follow your instructions for our own benefit.

As Lord Krishna is Madhuradhipati , his every aspect is full of sweetness, your every dealings with devotees is full of sweetness. Like honey cannot leave its sweetness, you cannot leave your sweetness, because that's what you have. As honey cannot taste its own sweetness although it is full of nectarine sweetness similarly Guru Maharaja you are unaware of your own sweetness, your sweetness can be tasted only by devotees.

Devotees come to you with problems, confusion, sorrow, anxiety and they go with blissfulness. There problem may not be solved since it’s the nature of material world, problems has to be there, but you raise their consciousness above the problems. Actually this is the real solution, after all our whole movement is about raising consciousness.

Since your heart is full with love for Krishna, You can only see things in relation to that love. Your eyes are anointed with the love for Krishna. So when we see people with defects, mistakes etc, You see them with love and give them unlimited opportunities to come back to Krishna. Sometimes people like us misunderstand You because we are on the platform of Nyaya, but You are on the platform of Krishna Prema .

I was just mediating on Your come back after the surgery which was one of the wonder in medical science but for Krishna and his devotees miracles are regular event. Lord Krishna glorifies his pure devotees by bringing their qualities infront of the world. It’s amazing how You engaged everyone in pure devotional service of praying for You. Everyone was absorbed in prayers and contemplating their own drawbacks and trying to improve their sadhana. By seeing You, our faith in this process of hearing and chanting increases multifold.

It’s so nice to see You back giving classes, meeting devotees, travelling etc. Your question and answer sessions are beyond our comprehension. Your voice is very clear and so are the classes and talks. You preach the philosophy in simple words and show it in practice by Yourself.

When we see Your life its full of struggle and challenges. But from the perspective of Krishna, He shows the practical way of following Dharma through the activities of His pure devoteeṣ. And how wonderfully Lord showed us to follow Krishna consciousness in any situation through Your wonderful activities. You never ever compromised Krishna consciousness under any circumstances.

I pray to Sri Sri Radha Madhava, Lord Narasimhadev, Sri Sri Pancatattva, Sri Sri Jagannath , Baladeva , Subhadra, to bestow Good health, Long life and unlimited strength to You so that You can bring more and more fallen souls like us to the Lotus feet of Lord Krishna.

I beg You forgiveness for any offences I committed through my Body, mind or words and humbly request You to please give blessings so that I can please You through my insignificant activities. Please keep me always in Your prayers.

Thank you,

Your ever servant of servant,
