Dear Guru Maharaj,
All Glories to Srila Prabhupada
All Glories to Guru Maharaj
Please accept my respectful obeisances at the dust of your lotus feet, especially on this Divine Appearance Day - the most blessed event for us all (your disciples).
I would like to narrate a very recent incident that makes me realize that your are truly my father. For past several months I have been hearing your lectures and got inspired to participate in the Navadeep Parikrama and hence registered for the 2020 parikrama which happened recently - Feb- March 2020 and I was getting ready for coming over to India. While I kind of packed most of my things I was wanting to get something for you from Toronto which should be of good use to you, while meditating upon this for quite some time, then I thought I would like to take Avocados, as we get real good ones here, but I had not disclosed this to anyone. The next morning I saw a message from HG Kamala Gopi Devi dasi (my mentor and shiksha guru) asking me to take avocados to Guru Maharaj. I then called up to inform about how I had the same thought in my mind and within few hours I received this message. Mataji then informed that this was a request from Mayapur Dham asking for avocados. I was overwhelmed and just thought of how dear you are - understanding my desire to serve you and giving me an opportunity to serve you as per my thoughts , this is truly amazing. This might sound like a coincidence, but not for me,I understand that My dear Guru Maharaj - my real father knows all about his spiritual daughter's desire. The scriptures say that the spiritual master is a true representative of the Supreme Personality of Godhead but I fell like you are antaryami - knowing what is in our heart and mind.
Dear Guru Mahraj - it's by your mercy and blessing that I could attend this year Navadeep mandala parikrama, having the association of pure devotees, listening pure katha / nectar from their lotus mouths and also able to take darshan of Pancha Tattva, Radha Madhava and Asta Sakhis and Lord Narashimadev and Prahalad Maharaj.
I also attended to your classes every day on the roof top of Lotus building - felt so blessed that I could have your darshan every day from Feb. 26th to March 6th 2020 and listen to katha from your lotus mouth. It's very inspiring Guru Maharaj to see you give katha for your disciples in spite of all the physical challenges, meetings, and various other things you have to do every day. This is really inspiring for me to do seva with love for you and Srila Prabhupada.
With your blessing I have been able to do the following sevas -
Book distribution including Srimad Bhagawatam sets - once or twice a month
Participating in Prabhupada Marathon - mid Nov to end of Dec every year for the past more than 7 years
Having Bhakti vriksha at home on every Fridays
Assisting at the Temple in cooking for the Sunday Feast
Karthik Month - when I get an opportunity to do Damodar aarati in various homes
I have been chanting extra rounds every day and also circumambulating Tulasi Maharani for your good health and would like to continue to do this as a seva for you.
I repeatedly beg at your lotus feet to engage me in the seva that you wish to.
Kindly be merciful and bless my husband Prabhudev Ramachandra and my son Abhishek Prabhudev to chant regularly and take to Krishna Conscious seriously.
I also seek your blessing for my mother Tulasi Bai for the good health as currently she is undergoing treatment for cancer.
I also request you to give your mercy and blessing for my Father in law to get his first initiation as he has been chanting 16 rounds every day for the past more than 3 years and also reading scriptures and following the 4 regulative principles.
Looking forward to visiting Mayapur Dham every year to have your association and blessings.
your unworthy spiritual daughter
