Dear Guru Maharaj,
Please accept my respectful obeisance at the dust of your lotus feet. All glories to Srila Prabhupad and all glories to you my dear father.
It’s our utmost blessings to celebrate your 71st Sri Vyasa-puja Mahotsava. All glories to your auspicious appearance day.
Dear Guru Maharaj, Last year I was craving for your personal service and get personal dharsan of you as I never got this fortune in India. By your causeless mercy, you have travelled all the way from India to US, by tolerating all your difficulties to just shower mercy for all the fallen soul like us. We really felt so fortunate and blessed to serve you and be part of your 50yrs sannyas celebration in Atlanta. As Śrī Caitanya Mahāprabhu has repeatedly said:
'sādhu-saṅga', 'sādhu-saṅga'—sarva-śāstre kaya
lava-mātra sādhu-saṅge sarva-siddhi haya
Translation: “The verdict of all revealed scriptures is that by even a moment’s association with a pure devotee, one can attain all success.
Guru Maharaj, just your presence and merciful eyes can make millions of devotees. Thank you so much Guru Maharaj for giving your association. Whenever I get any difficulties in my life, I just remember you, how many difficulties you are going through and never gave up your service to Srila Prabhupad. Your attachment and sacrifice to give your association personally and through Facebook for all your disciples and devotees is unbelievable. Your every moment is an example for us to live. All this, gives me boost to follow my sadhana seriously and remind my responsibility and service to you. Last Vyasa puja I wrote as, my prabhu started chanting, and this year I am happy to write as by your causeless mercy, my prabhu took shelter from you by Nov,2019. Under your guidance, last year Karthik month we did dhamodar program in Indian stores by which 470 people show diyas and we also distributed Bhagavat gita and small books. By your causeless mercy, I got preaching service in Richmond, Virginia congregation, please bless me Guru Maharaj, so I can render this service selflessly to please you. We don't have temple here and so to outreach people, we are starting new project this year "Discover yourself" program in coming May,2020 and as your instrument, I am also part of it to deliver 6hr session on Bhagavat gita. As a follow up, planning to start Bhakti vriksha for those interested. All this will happen only by your mercy Guru Maharaj. We are sincerely praying to you, please bless and empower us, so we can do this project successfully to please you and Srila prabhupad.
I thank again and again to Srila prabhupad to give you in our life, and I pray sincerely to Prahlad Narasimha dev to protect you and gives you good health, so you can deliver more and more souls from various parts of the world.
I beg you to forgive all my offenses and keep me at your shelter always. Please let me chant the holy name and serve without any offense to attain the love for Gauranga.
Your aspiring to be a sincere disciple,
Shyamala Gopika Devi Dasi
