Vyāsa-pūjā 2020

Premānanda Caitanya dāsa (Kolkata - India)

My dear spiritual father, 

Pls accept my respectful obeisances at the dust of your lotus feet on this auspicious day of your appearance. I would take this opportunity to express my heartfelt gratitude for whatever you are doing for ourselves to save us from the onslaught of Maya.In Śrīmad- Bhāgavatam 8.7.44 it is said that the highest form of worship is to accept difficulties voluntarily to alleviate the suffering of others. This is said in the context of lord Shiva's drinking poison. Gurumaharaj, you are drinking this poison of our karma keeping aside the opportunity of enjoyment with your spiritual master,God brothers,krishna & definitely with lord of your heart lord Chaitanya the in the spiritual world. You have now more than 50k disciples but still you are giving time personal time to an unknown village devotee. This fact I saw infront of my own eyes. You have unfathomable compassion for conditioned soul like us.We sing ,"Sri Guru karuna Sindhu adhama janara Bandhu". You are the personification of this line. In so many instances I realised this fact when you asked me about my youth preaching reports,my other services & most amazingly I saw that you keep this rascal's services in your memory ..this is my hope Gurumaharaj. I am 100% confident that by my struggling Sadhana, week determination I will be no where in the home  playground of Maya. But still this sinful rascal is continuing its services being in the Bramhacari ashram surrounded by devotees, mahaprasadam, deities, services just by your prayers & blessings.

One very senior devotee from one of our most popular ISKCON temples of India was sharing that he was so sorry to think that he could not get a single opportunity to speak to his spiritual master even being a Bramhacari for 13 years. But I have received so much reciprocations as I mentioned above from you even in terms getting replies  in mails by you in the crucial moments in our life. You are setting the example of yukta Vairagya powerfully by utilising all the ultra modern facilities in the service of your spiritual master to reach out to the conditioned souls. In this lock down condition of the world you are giving 3 preaching programs in a day utilising zoom platform.By the infection if corona virus we will dye once but by the infection of Maya virus we are dying from time immemorial. But you are there in the forefront to protect us from the infection if Maya virus by getting specially empowered by lord Chaitanya & Srila Prabhupada. On this day of you appearance I am begging forgiveness from you due to offences committed at your lotus feet knowingly or unknowingly & bless this rascal so that it can simply become an instrument in your hands to fulfill the desires of Srila Prabhupada & the pervious Acharyas.

 

Your insignificant servant, 

Premananda Chaitanya Das
