Hare Krsna dear Guru Maharaj,
Pls accept my humble obeisances.
All glories to Guru and Gauranga.
All glories to Srila Prabhupad.
All glories to You.
With great gratitude, I am submitting my humble vyasa puja offering at your lotus feet. It is only by your mercy that I have walked through this spiritual pathway till now without much difficulties. Praying to you to guide me and be with me in each and every step I take in my devotional service. Being my spiritual father please guide me to take up right decision and walk through in the right path.
Chanting which is the back- bone of our spiritual life is not so strong in me now. Earlier in the association of devotees i use to do early morning chanting. My day starts at 3.30 in the morning. Soon after finishing my bathing etc.I sit for chanting . Atleast 7 to 8 rounds I finish in Brahma muhurtam and then start with cooking etc and leave my house for job by around 5.40 AM. But now I am not taking this austerity. And I am not able to be attentive through –out my chanting . But by your mercy I am sure I can improve in the quality of my chanting. So pls bless me Guru Maharaj to improve the quality of my chanting and get the Mercy of Sri Sri Radha Madhava.
Then now by Gauranga Mahaprabhu's mercy I am doing my service in Prasadam Committee. Sometimes, if there are more devotees than expected and we fear that there could be insufficiency of prasadam, at that time I always pray to you only, Guru Maharaj. And you have always helped us by giving enough intelligence to handle the situation. Thus many-a-times I have felt your presence and helping hands in all my endeavours.
Then regarding Bal Utsav classes, by your mercy this year there are around 50 children in our class. Pls give me the knowledge to guide these souls in the right pathway. The land lady of the institute where we are taking class now is very supportive. Her name is swarnalatha. She attends our damodar arati and came for new year mangalarati program with her family. Also some of the children from our class have started with regular chanting, observing ekadasi fasting etc... And some parents and childern even after relocating to India , from there also they are continuing to take up our bal-utsav related services with so much enthusiasm. Pls give me the intelligence and heart to engage more souls in devotional service according to their capasity. It is ALL YOUR MERCY ONLY GURU MAHARAJ, that I have got very supportive parents and children.. Pranams to you, Guru Maharaj.
Next is regarding my reading habit. This aspect still needs to be improved a lot. By your mercy, I can improve in this aspect. Next is about hearing lectures. I'm hearing lectures by various devotees. But again, it isn't consistent. This year, I'll try to hear atleast one lecture a day by our devotees. Please bless me Guru Maharaj to keep up my promise to you.
Thank you Guru Maharaj for accepting me as your disciple and for keeping me continuously in the service of the Lord. On this auspicious occasion of your Vyasa Puja, please bless me, my son and my family including my parents to keep in good health, so that we can elevate more and more in our devotional practices.
Thank u Guru Maharaj,
Your Humble servant,
