Respected Guru Maharaja,
Please accept my respectful obesiances unto Your Lotus feet!
All Glories to Sri Guru and Sri Gauranga!
All Glories to Srila Prabhupada!
Guru Maharaja, just a month ago, accidentally i happened to meet one renowned bhrgu jothida astrologer and he told me that Your Guru is not ordinary, very big, famous and divine personality. He further added that your Guru strongly tied you in your neck with rope, Guru will drag you to the kingdom of God and your fortune is very good in the future too because of Your Guru. As soon as that astrologer ended saying that, there was so much tears in my eyes remembering your causeless mercy upon me again.
I was being told that there are only some 300 Bhakti Vaibhava graduates in ISKCON Worldwide Community. By your transcendental blessings , i also got opportunity to do Bhakti Vaibhava. But i am completely dependent on your blessings so that i dont forget all important lessons from Srila Prabhupadas purports from Srimad Bhagavatam. Srila Prabhupada writes the importance of spiritual master almost in every page, every chapter of Srimad Bhagavatam.
I was able to relish entire fourth canto of Srimad Bhagavatam inwhich Dhruva Maharaj, Prthu Maharaj and Pracetas are praying for only one thing although Supreme Lord was ready to offer unlimited benediction. Constantly hearing Krishna Katha from Pure devotees was the only one prayer for them. All of them directly offered that prayer to Supreme Lord. Kindly shower Your causeless blessings so that i always remember those prayers and desire nothing else.
Many places in the bhagavatam, i came across this point: Whatever characteristics and qualities Lord possesses also being possessed by pure devotees. In fact Pure devotees are more merciful than the Lord. Whenever we think of Your Holiness, Whenever we discuss Your transcendental qualities we get so much purification.
Recently We have studied Bhagavata Cosmology from Srimad Bhagavatam and we understood it is very difficult and impossible to even cross this bharata kanda ( one of 9 varsas of Bharata varsa), and crossing Bharata Varsa, jambudvipa , bhu mandala and this one universe of material world can not even be imagined. brahmanda bhramite kona bhagyavan jiva guru-krishna-prasade paya bhakti-lata-bija: only By the mercy of both Krishna and the spiritual master, a person receives the seed of the creeper of devotional service.
I kindly beg at Your lotus feet to always keep me at Your service. Kindly forgive all my offences unknowingly committed at Your lotus feet. Please accept my sincere prayers at the Lotus feet of Sri Sri Radha Madhava, Sri Sri Prahlada Narasimha , Sri Sri Panca tattva for Your good health.
Your insignificant servant,
Sankarsana Gaura Dasa
