Dear Gurudev,
Kindly accept my humble and respectful obeisances. All Glories to Srila Prabhupada!
On this occasion of your auspicious appearance day, I express my sincere gratitude to you Gurudev, for your unlimited mercy extended to me, accepting me as one of your disciples.
It is very seen that Gurudev, you dedicated your life to the entire humanity irrespective of public welfare, nationalism, religion, rich or poor etc. for the up-lifting of fallen souls from hellish life and also for their blissful spiritual life.
On this auspicious day, I feel comfortable and fortunate to glorify our beloved spiritual master who is a living legend sacrificing his life for the welfare of the whole society and perfectly fulfilling the desire of Sri Caitanya Maha Prabhu.
Gurudev, even though you are not in a perfect bodily condition, you are still, spiritually healthy and it shows because you carry Krishna’s love in your heart. You are still accepting many disciples and sharing your valuable realizations, and sincerely engaged in the release of “Baddathmas” to Krishna with the priceless blessings of our Great founder Acharya Srila Prabhupada. You are firm in your faith and devotional service to him. You are setting such a perfect example; absolutely nothing should be an impediment to devotional service.
Even though in the present pandemic situation of Covid, you were showing your enthusiasm towards your disciples by way of Zoom visit and arranging several traditional programs to enlighten the devotees all over the world.
It is always so difficult glorifying you because no words are ever sufficient to express your vast glories. What can we say? What you have given us is so great that even to put it into words in order to express our gratitude is difficult -in fact impossible. I think this alone explains your elevated position. So it is important for us to realize that we are accepted as a follower by such a great Acharya like you Gurudev and Dear Gurudev, we are too fortunate that we are Gurudev’s disciples.
According to Sri Narada Muni - "a bona fide spiritual master who sacrificed and followed the path of Bhagavat Dharma throughout his life, such a great soul is to be considered the external manifestation of Krishna Himself". So you are Gurudev.
Gurudev, I feel obliged with your great preaching and inspiration, empowering me in devotional service with the ‘bhava’ of ‘Dasanudasanudasa’ of Lord Krishna. I promise I will follow all the principles and instructions as it is of the mission (yatra) and continue my devotional service without any break in my future life.
We always pray Lord Krishna grand you always good health, Gurudev. Thank you for all that you have done for us, for being such a fantastic disciple of Srila Prabhupada and in turn, a wonderful role model. We love you so much, Gurudev.
Also, we pray to Gouranga, for their mercy on you! For your good health to further strengthen your mission of spreading Krishna consciousness in more towns and villages around the world.
May lord Narasimhadev protect you always, Hare Krishna, Haribol from Mathuradesh
Your most humble servant
