Our Dear Spiritual Father Śrīla Guru Mahārāja,
Please accept my respectful obeisances. All glories to Śrīla Prabhupāda!
On this auspicious Vyas puja day with your mercy I take a moment to write and be eternally grateful , meditating upon your merciful lotus feet for giving us shelter, love of god (Sri Krsna) engaging us in loving devotional service to Guru and Krsna .
Thank you for giving us this real knowledge of Krsna consciousness and explaining beautifully the discourses of Chaitaniya charitamrita, Srimad Bhagawatam, Bhagavad Gita
Guru Maharaja With your mercy , encouragement and teachings and guidance, every thing you teach us about Krsna consciousness we try to practice and follow .
Guru maharaja with your blessings and mercy, For 2 -main reasons,
I have been trying to study scriptures sincerely and scrutinizingly , Bhagavad Gita, Srimad Bhagawatam ,Chaitaniya Charitamrita , Krsna book , Nectar of Instruction - With the help of siksha and diksha Guru.
1st reason -is , it has helped me immensely to have more and more attachment to Krsna , affection to Krsna by studying and hearing scriptures with the help of self realized devotees it gives me more and more stronger faith and conviction and attachment to the lord Sri Krsna and Nitai Gauranga and attachment to all the Goswami’s.
So , that’s my foremost reason to study scriptures.
2nd reason- I try to study scriptures with the help of siksha and diksha guru is to - assist you srila Gurudev and Nitai Gauranga in the service to preach Krsna consciousness, giving and sharing love of god (Sri Krsna) to the new souls , I wish to serve you sincerely Gurudev , I also desire to go out regularly and preach and conduct nama hatta programs or invite them to the house to then cultivate them (new souls) in Krsna consciousness by preaching what we practice ! The loving devotional service of Radha and Krsna.
I beg for the mercy and blessings and prayers , please bless me with spiritual strength and physical strength , so I can serve you nicely . I want to serve but with my limitations of physical health, I lack in physical strength . I beg for the mercy , it is only possible with the mercy and blessings of the (dear most devotees )of the lord (Sri Krsna) , With the blessings , I can then be able to serve a little and assist srila Gurudev in his service to srila prabhupada and Nitai Gauranga , Radha and Krsna and to all the merciful Goswami’s .
Seeking your blessings and prayers , dear Guru Maharaja And begging for forgiveness Please forgive me for any of my offense or mistakes unknowingly or knowingly.
Taking shelter at your lotus feet and offering humble prayers by repeating the prayers of acharyas - from Vaishnava song
I Offer humble prayers at your merciful lotus feet Srila Gurudev-
(ohe! vaiṣṇaba ṭhākura, doyāra sāgara,
e dāse koruṇā kori'
diyā pada-chāyā, śodho he āmāya,
tomāra caraṇa dhori
O venerable Vaisnava, devotee of Krsna! O ocean of mercy, be merciful unto your servant. Give me the shade of your lotus feet and purify me. I hold on to your lotus feet. )
Please bestow blessings that may I always remember Krsna and never forget ! May I never fall down . And may I constantly chant Hare Krsna the holyname of the lord and take shelter of Harinaam seva constantly.
I offer my humble pranam again and again at your lotus feet , and I beg for the drop of mercy and blessings that I shall stay fixed and focused , undeviated and may I always be in reverential mood in serving devotees of the lord Krsna and in loving devotional service to Radha and Krsna unmotivated and uninterrupted.
Hare Krsna Hare Krsna Krsna Krsna Hare Hare Hare Rama hare Rama Rama Rama hare hare .
Please bless me that May I always and constantly chant the holyname of the lord Hare Krsna , Hare Krsna .
Dear Guru Maharaja also bless my Son- Shaurya- he is 6year old , under your shelter your dear spiritual grandson chants everyday 2 to 6 rounds of Japa , please shower your blessings may he (shaurya) always remember Krsna and never forgets .
I also seek blessings for my Prabhu -husband -Radhananda Dasa -HH Bhakti Vikas Maharaja disciple . My husband over 3 years he is constantly engaged in preaching every week /Friday /Saturday he takes Bhagavad Gita class preaching Krsna consciousness to most of them new souls. my Prabhu is staunch in Krsna conscious philosophy by always referring and studying srila prabhupada books for many years . He is sober- dhira . He also helps me understand when studying the scriptures. Please bless him that he may continue to serve srila Gurudev ,srila Prabhupada and to Krsna and his devotees .
Seeking blessings for all , May we all get Krsna Bhakti , Krsna Prema and go back home back to godhead this very life time .
Please bless us Gurumaharaja . That May I develop the higher taste and get detached to the lower taste.
May I always and constantly chant the holyname of the lord
