To my dear loving spiritual father Guru Maharaja.
Please accept my respectful obeisances.
All glories to Your Divine Grace.
All glories to Srila Prabhupada.
Happy 71st Vyasa puja!
Gurumaharaj your mercy is inconceivable, the way you touch everyone’s heart with your love and soft and gentle light hearted nature. With all your physical challenges you still continue to make the impossible possible you move mountains and melt stone like hearts.
You give your disciples no excuses to not be close to you. Everyday you make yourself accessible via social media. You give us every opportunity to be able to hear your instructions and the opportunity to understand your mood by answering questions. You give us all the support we need to make our spiritual life successful. I can never thank you enough for your love and support.
I miss you so dearly, for the longest time I haven’t had the opportunity to talk to you or personally serve you. This year however, I was able to have your darshan in Atlanta, at your 50th sanyasa celebrations. I didn’t get the opportunity to personally talk to you, however with your inconceivable mercy and the mercy of your servants, I was able to render some service by helping with your breakfast. This made me realize even more that you’re always close by your disciples, even if we can’t approach you like we used to, you hear our prayers.
I remember the days I got to personally serve you, those sweet times on safari, those magical morning walks with you. I cherish those days, and pray I can one day become a worthy disciple at you lotus feet. Thank you for blessing me by allowing me to be your disciple. Thank you for giving me the opportunity to serve our dear Lordships, Sri Sri Radha Shyamsundar, Sri Sri Jagannatha, Baladeva, Subadra devi, Sri Sri Gaura Nitai and Srila Prabhupada. I pray for your blessings to be good mother and wife and blessings to be able preach and assist you serving Srila Prabhupada’s mission.
Lots of love,
Your insignificant servant and daughter,
