Dear Gurumaharaja,
Please accept my respectful obeisances. All glories to Srila Prabhupada! All glories to your lotus feet!
Happy Vyasapuja!
On this most auspicious day, I will try my best to express in words my appreciation and gratitude to you. You are my saviour, my inspiration, my shelter and the strongest pillar of Krishna consciousness in my life. You are a true leader because just by thinking about you, it is empowering to continue my services. You have left the most powerful spiritual impressions in my heart from my childhood and it is these memories that have fixated my faith that serving in Srila Prabhupada’s ISKCON is the most ecstatic life.
Due to your causeless mercy, you have given me Krishna, Mayapur dham, a purpose in life, a desire to share Krishna with others and a service that always keeps me connected to your lotus feet. Whenever I pray, I always pray that I may be able to please you and Srila Prabhupada in this lifetime. Gurumaharaja, you are 1000% dedicated, surrendered disciple of Srila Prabhupada and I know that by following in your footsteps I am on the right path. I will try my very best to make your vision for CDM Children Services a reality and in assisting you in fulfilling Srila Prabhupada’s instructions.
During this COVID period, you are sending us daily messages in your app and I get astounded how you perform so much service in only 24 hours! You use every single moment and breath in the service of Srila Prabhupada – working on expanding the Krishna conscious movement as well as being so vigilant of all the devotees and temples in being maintained nicely in Krishna consciousness. It is amazing and inspiring to see how much you are achieving from inside your quarters during this pandemic. You are an unstoppable, determined preacher and you have changed thousands of lives. You have shown by your example that regardless of the material world’s situation – a health crisis – the Krishna conscious movement is unstoppable.
Gurumaharaja, you have unlimited good qualities; you are compassionate, a visionary, determined, organised, steady, disciplined, tolerant, caring, sincere, dedicated, surrendered disciple and 100% Krishna conscious. My ongoing aspiration in this life is to understand your mood and mission as Srila Prabhupada said about the importance of gaining the Guru’s vibration, “Get his vibration. His vibration is the essence.” You have already given your disciples everything, all that is left for us to do is to follow your instructions in executing Srila Prabhupada’s instructions. You have given me more than I deserve and so I will try my best to share this love and beauty of Krishna consciousness that you have blessed upon me to others. I pray that with your blessings I can assist you in fulfilling Srila Prabhupada’s instructions throughout my life. I pray that I may be able to hold onto your lotus feet within my heart and dedicate my life in pleasing you. Thank you again Gurumaharaja for giving your life to Krishna and His devotees. I would be nowhere without you.
Please forgive me for any offenses I may have committed.
Yours in service always, your spiritual daughter,
Gourangi Gandharvika dd
