Dear Guru Maharaj,
Please accept my respectful obesciences.
I am really getting amazed at the endeavor you are giving to expand Krishna consciousness movement at this stage.
I always think how you are able to get that much endurance to be always part of lord's service.
I am not even getting a word to say anything by seeing the austerities you are performing everyday to increase the taste for Gauranga.
I will pray that Krishna should give you strength to rejuvenate your services(making more devotees) post your operation.
If possible please come to Minneapolis to inspire and deliver us with your blessings.
Your unqualified aspiring servant,
Arun Souri
