My dear beloved Gurumaharaj,
On this auspicious occasion of your Vyasapuja it gives us an opportunity to express our heartfelt gratitude for all that you have done for us and are continuing to do inspite of your fragile health conditions. Its very true what Srila prabhupada said that one cannot repay ones spiritual master for what he has done but we can atleast try to follow his instructions and try to please him .
You have always been a perfect example of an excellent disciple of Srila Prabhupada ,risking your life in the mission of preaching the glories of Sri Sri Nitai Gaurasundar.Even today in this pandemic situition it has not detered your enthusiasm to preach ,you are going around the globe virtually and showering your blessings and mercy on so many souls online and offline having your darshan.This really fascinates me Gurumaharaj ,its beyond my comprehension to understand your mercy .
You also amaze us with your innovative ideas that you come up with be it virtual book table , virtual Safari, matrimonial, your Caitanya lila classes your mercy is always flowing like the ganges flowing freely .Feel so happy to see your determination to preach Gauralila.Its truly inspirational.
This Pandamic though brought with it so many ups and downs , as we lost some of our great heroes of our movement as desired by Lord Sri Krishna but we are grateful to Lord for having given us you back Gurumaharaj and for having protected you inspite of being infected with covid.
Gurumaharaj, we feel we are really fortunate to be under yours and Srila prabhupada's shelter.Don't know what would have happen to us if you were not there.
Just like the squirrel has been instrumental in helping Lord Rama build the bridge we are also trying Gurumaharaj to be instrumental in helping you with your preaching activities. We are conducting the following activities in our area :-
# Japa session in morning and evening for an hour started during the last Pandamic and is continuing till date with number of attendees fluctuating everyday .
# Children classes now doing it online since last pandemic .
# Reading Srila Prabhupada lilambrita , during festivals we discuss on topics related.
# Bhakti Vruksha being conducted by my prabhu(Prasadeshvara Krishna das)
# BG class for low income kids ,they were doing it offline but again due to increase in Covid cases they have temporarily stopped
# Every week prabhu along with local devotees does book distribution
- Apart from this prabhu has been given service of looking into accounts of Iskcon south Bangalore.
- By support from Iskcon south Bengaluru and local temple devotees we had Nagara Sankirtan along with prasadam distribution and book distribution in our area .It was amazing and seemed like people loved it.
- In future depending on the situition we planned to have ones a month Nagara sankirtan.
Also one mega event for the localities with culturals , book distribution and prasadam.
These are some of the services we are doing and planned to do.All this can happen only by your prayers& blessings Gurumaharaj.
We pray at the Lotusfeet of Sri RadhaMadhava, Sri Narasimhadev and Sri Pancatattva for your continued good health so that you can continue to motivate and inspire many more souls to Krishnaconsciousness.
Kindly seeking your blessings for our children too.
Wishing you a blissful Krishnaconscious Vyasapuja Gurumaharaj.
Your loving spiritual children and grandchildren,
Prasadeshvara krishna das,Prema Priya Radhika dd, Pranav & Pranati.
