Om visnu-padaya krsna-presthaya bhu-tale
Srimate Jayapataka-swamin iti namine
Nama acharya-padaya nitai kripa pradayine
Gaura Katha dhama daya nagara-grama tarine
Hare Krishna Dear Srila Gurudev,
Please accept my respectful obeisances.
All Glories to Srila Prabhupada.
All Glories to you Srila Gurudev.
All glories to your auspicious appearance day Gurudev! With your permission and mercy, I would like to pray to their Lordships Sri Sri Radha Gopinath, Jaganath Baladeva and Subhadra Maharani and GauraNitai, to bestow unlimited mercy unto you on your 71st Vyasa Puja, so your wish to walk and preach and fulfil the mission of Srila Prabhuapada can be victorious.
Srila Gurudev recently we have gone through a lot of ups and downs, at those time I was not 100% in my sadhana, my chanting was improving in these days but I have missed a lot of my reading and hearing. I still have not come back to normal Srila Gurudev. I could feel a lot of difference when I was not doing my sadhana properly. In these situation, I would remember how great you are Srila Gurudev in following all the orders of Srila Prabhupada with enthusiasm. These situations made me to realise again and again how dedicated you are to Srila Prabhupada and his instructions. That’s what helps me to be motivated. This helps me to push my enthusiasm to follow more and more Krishna Consciousness.
There is a nice verse from Sri Caitanya Charithamrutha Adi Lila 7.95-96
ei tāṅra vākye āmi dṛḍha viśvāsa dhari’
nirantara kṛṣṇa-nāma saṅkīrtana kari
sei kṛṣṇa-nāma kabhu gāoyāya, nācāya
gāhi, nāci nāhi āmi āpana-icchāya
“I firmly believe in these words of My spiritual master, and therefore I always chant the holy name of the Lord, alone and in the association of devotees. That holy name of Lord Kṛiṣhṇa sometimes causes Me to chant and dance, and therefore I chant and dance. Please do not think that I intentionally do it. I do it automatically. In Purport, it explains that A person who cannot keep his faith in the words of his spiritual master but acts independently never receives the authority to chant the holy name of the Lord. It is said in the Vedas (Śvetāśvatara Up. 6.23):
yasya deve parā bhaktir yathā deve tathā gurau
tasyaite kathitā hy arthāḥ prakāśante mahātmanaḥ
“Only unto those great souls who have implicit faith in both the Lord and the spiritual master are all the imports of Vedic knowledge automatically revealed.”
Srila Gurudev with the belief of your spiritual master, Srila Prabhupada you started Bhatkti Vriksha to preach the society like Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu introducing Sankirtana Movement to spread Krishna Consciousness. The trust in the words of Srila Prabhupada and the Achraryas helped you to fulfil all the orders so it become very successful. So, I completely understand that putting faith in the words of the spiritual master and in the Supreme Personality of Godhead is the secret of success. So please bless me and my family to continue our 1% service to Sri Sri Radha Gopinath temple in Sydney.
I humbly pray to remain connected to your lotus feet always remembering your vani Guru maharaj. Without your causeless mercy, my life has no value. I pray to be in the ocean of your mercy that is available by your vani.
By your mercy I have received the service for coordinating the Altar decoration of Sri Sri Radha Gopinath on the festival occasions. My prabhu Srivasa Nitaigaura Das has been requested to start a new preaching group in a new suburb, so please bless him so he can be an instrument in spreading Krishna Consciousness. Srila Gurudev my daughter Damini is engaged in your services by editing your videos so please bless her so she can progress spirtually. Please also bless my younger daughter Tharini so that she can achieve Krishna prema. We are really grateful for bestowing all your mercy. Please bless me and my family to be able to continue our humble service without hindrance to any vaishnavas and we would like to offer all our services results to your lotus feet.
Jaiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii Srila Gurudev
Your Servant
