My dear GuruMaharaj
Please accept my respectful obeisance’s unto your lotus feet.
All glories to Srila Prabhupada.
All glories to your auspicious appearance day.
Gurudev, you are from Goloka, the eternal abode of the Lord. You’re the representative of the Supreme personality of Godhead. Your glories and achievements in the spiritual path has no limits. I’m just an insignificant insect, I’m unqualified to glorify your unlimited services to Srila Prabhupada's lotus feet.
Your limitless dedication and pure love for Srila Prabhupad, Guru Parampara and Panchtatva , Sri Sri Radha Madhav is always giving me inspiration , not only me but many devotees all over the world. Your example for unalloyed devotion will live forever. Sometimes I get attracted to mundane activities, but you drag me back to the spiritual path through your lectures. When I took your darshan 1st time I got a hope in my life. You inspire me to hear about the pastimes of the Supreme lord. I don’t have words to glorify you gurudev,
Hearing from you is greatest strength for me. You have so much love for Prabhupad and Dham. I want to give some of the examples of your taste for Gaur Katha and serving the devotees in humble mood. I was hearing this from HG.Amogh Lila Prabhu. In one lecture he was narrating that once he was with you in the morning walk. He asked you , “ Maharaj ! How to get teste for Gaur Katha ?” You Replied him, “ Read 108 times Caitanya Charitamrit.” After small pause you said I did it long back. After hearing this pastime of yours I got the taste for reading scriptures everyday.
In the year 1997 this incident happened with the family of HG.Amrendra Prabhu. When Prabhu and his family visited vrindavan temple, that time you were seated below the tamal tree and chanting . When you saw this family you smiled and you got up with folded palm you asked them in a humble way , “ You are coming to dham?. Seems like this is your 1st visit. How can I serve you? Please tell me. I am your servant. How can I assist you.” This is your bhava towards devotees.
I’m humbly requesting you to accept offerings from this insignificant servent and begging for your blessings to sincerely follow your instructions.
Your Servant,
