Om ajnana timirandhasya jnananjana salakaya
Caksur unmilitam yena tasmai sri gurave namah
Nama om Vishnu padaya Krishna prasthaya bhutale
Srimate Jayapataka swamin iti namine
Nama acarya padaya nitai kripa pradayine
Gaura katha dama daya nagara grama tarine
Gurumaharaj, my spiritual father,
Please accept my most humble obeisance to the dust of your lotus feet.
In the year 2019, we were expecting you in Krishna Katha Desh but somehow you travelled directly from USA-UK and Mumbai could not get your darshan. But felt very unfortunate, not to have your darshan. Your daily classes are giving us solace and feeling your association through your vani..
This year is very special as being your 50th year of sanyasa. One of devotees mentioned that 50 years of sanyasa means 50 years of great austerity and sacrifice. Your life is so exemplary and your appetite for preaching effort never ending and ever increasing. Guru maharaj “You never gave up” rather always challenged the problems.
You are a true illustration of your commitment to your spiritual master Srila Prabhupada and compassion on fallen condition souls all over the world. Your continuous efforts to spread and distribute the gaura katha across the globe is an epitome of your spiritual kindness without giving any consideration to bodily condition. This is a real proof that you have transcended the modes of material nature and situated in spiritual realm. Your greatest magnanimity is your compassion and with that many fallen condition souls like me were benefited.
Your initiatives for congregation preaching through Bhakti vriksha program is your service to Srila Prabhupada initiatives for developing the congregation all over the world to fulfill the Lord chaitanya prophecy. These results are ever increasing in Krishna katha desh. After moving to Wakra in 2017 (a city in Krishna kath desh), by your mercy, we are now stabilized and into 3 groups with Kola-Cakra- Mathura, Vrindavan and Dwaraka. We are surviving by your mercy only Guru Majharaj. In 2019 we have 3 devotees took initiation and 12 devotees took shelter. 8 more devotees are being prepared for taking initiation in the year 2020.
As per the Yatra demand, along with serving south Krishna Kath Desh zone, accepted the service to assist yatra president in the capacity of Vice yatra president. Trying serve ISKCON IDVM through Krishna Katha Desh “ Go seva” team and also similar efforts are made to serve the “ KKD-Devotee care” team. Please bestow your mercy and empower me to fulfil the above aspirations without any tinge of pride and selfish motives while serving you in helping Srila Prabhupada mission.
This year a special service opportunity was given to me and my wife in taking “ Bhakti Sastry” in Telugu language through KIHE. This service is being rendered only by my wife Ujjvala Kalindi Devi Dasi now. We seek your blessings to serve the devotees in Krishna Katha Desh through Telugu language.
Guru Maharaj on this special day of yours, I humbly beg you for the following benedictions that:
1) To give humble state of mind to follow your instructions as my heart and soul without any pride.
2) To fulfill the desire of Krishna Katha Desh Yatra 222 -2022 Bhakti Vriksha in Krishna katha desh. Also Guru maharaj, seek your blessings and empowerment for the fulfillment of challenge in taking up 47 BV groups in our South zone in the 2020.
3) To give us success in our efforts in developing next batch of devotees for shelter and initiation to lead a successful and blissful spiritual life..
These tasks are only possible by your causeless mercy. I seek your mercy and permanent shelter at your lotus feet, again and again. Guru Maharaj,
Guru Maharaja, My entire family (wife, ujvala kalindi dd, your aspirant children, Amrutha and Anirudh and my mother Varadhatri Paurnamasi dd) joins me on the auspicious day of your 71st vyasa puja, in praying to lordships Sri Sri Radha Madhava, sri sri gaura nitai, Narsimha dev and Panch tatva for your good health so that you will be in your best of spirits and also complete the “Lord Chaitanya” book which would be a greatest treasure for entire Gaudiya Vaishnava community in future.
