Dear Gurudev,
Please accept my repectful obesiances. All glories to Srila Prabhupad and to you. I would like this to be "short and sweet" as the saying goes. So, I just want to thank you for being there for each and every one of your disiples. I am not initiated (I am hoping and trying to work towards getting sheltered and initiated in the future so that I may be able to preach) but, my parents are initited. I have heard soooooo many of your pastimes from them and witnessed some of them. Because of that, I can confidently say that you remember, pray for, and have an individual connection with each and every one of your disiples. Even though it dosen't really apply to me (the initiated people part), I just want to sincerly thank you for being there for each and every one of them (your disiples) and continuing to be a beacon for all of them and for me.
Sincerly,
Your Aspiring Daughter
