Dear Gurudeva,
Please accept my humble obeisances.
All glories to Śrīla Prabhupāda! All glories to you.
I beg you to accept my most respectful prostrated obeisances at your lotus feet.
Śrīla Gurudeva, on the occasion of your Vyāsa-pūjā this year, I pray to Śrī Śrī Rādhā Mādhava, Gaura Nitāi, and Narasiṁhadeva to protect you and bless you with good health.
Every day we are inspired by hearing about your untiring efforts to preach to everyone you meet and your great enthusiasm to engage everyone in the service of Śrīla Prabhupāda and Lord Caitanya Mahāprabhu. But for you, we would not have received the mercy of Lord Caitanya and the association of so many devotees to help us continue in this Kṛṣṇa consciousness process. Gurudeva by your causeless mercy we received Gaura Nitāi Deity and my husband Vinod Aravindan, daughter Tanisha and myself are serving them daily.
Gurudeva by your mercy the Bhakti-vṛkṣa members are growing well in Kṛṣṇa consciousness, by Your causeless mercy please bless me so that I can preach well.
Guru Mahārāja, I want to once again convey my sincere gratitude to you for accepting me and my husband, Vinod Aravindan, as your disciples (aspiring) and giving us the shelter of your lotus feet. Please bless us that we may be steady in our devotional life and continue to be engaged in services to you and the Lord in the association of devotees. Gurudeva please my daughter Tanisha Vinod as she is in her 12th grade so that she can continue her Kṛṣṇa consciousness activities strongly alone with her studies.
I cannot thank you enough and do not have words to express my gratitude for giving us the association of devotees in Gaurāṅga deśa yātrā, who are very kindly tolerating us and engaging us in your services and providing us all the support.
On the occasion of Your Divine Grace’s Vyāsa-pūjā celebration, I reconfirm my surrender and dedication to serving your lotus feet and pray for your causeless mercy and beg forgiveness for all my offenses.
Your insignificant daughter,
Kalpataru Jāhnavā Devī Dāsī (dīkṣā)
Gaurāṅga deśa
