Dear Guru Maharaja,
please accept my respectful obeisances in the dust of your lotus feet!
All glories to Your Divine Grace!
All glories to Srila Prabhupada!
At this all auspicious day of your appearance I wish to thank you from the bottom of my heart for accepting me as your disciple! I have no proper qualification and had done nothing to deserve to be accepted by you, but still you gave me that mercy 24 years ago! I just had a sincere desire and you saw that and were so compassionate to this fallen soul.
I do not know anyone like you guru maharaja. You are one of a kind. You have given your whole life to our beloved Srila Prabhupada and carry out his instructions so faithfully. You refuse to leave this world before you have finished them all. I have never seen such determination and love for one's spiritual master! Death cannot approach you. You are fully surrendered to the lotus feet of Sri Krishna Caitanya and thus can overcome all the laws of this material nature. Your body goes on just by your sheer will and loyalty to Srila Prabhupada's mission. You are the ultimate proof of victory of spirit over matter!
It is my great fortune to have such an exalted personality as a spiritual master. I beg to remain in your service and become a spiritual daughter you are proud of. Your strength of will, perseverance, diligence, dedication, honesty, kindness, truthfulness, care, gentlemanly nature, soft heart, sense of humor, intelligence, selflessness, ingenuity is an eternal inspiration to me! You love and treat everybody equally, without discrimination, making devotees feel that ISKCON is one big family, where everybody is welcome.
Thank you again and again for accepting me. Thank you for being a true embodiment of everything we read in the shastra a vaishnava should be. Thank you for being such a true representative of our dear Srila Prabhupada and for connecting me with him and the rest of guru parampara. I beg to remain in your service.
Your spiritual daughter,
Amala Prema devi dasi
