Gopīgana Gītā devī dāsī (Gaurāṅga Deśa - Middle East)

My Dear Guru Mahārāja,

Koṭi Koṭi Praṇāma

nama oṁ viṣṇu-pādāya kṛṣṇa-preṣṭhāya bhū-tale
śrīmate jayapatāka svāmin iti nāmine
nama ācaryapādāya nitāi-kṛpā-pradāyine
gaura-kathā-dhāma-dāya nagara-grāma-tāriṇe

nama oṁ viṣṇu-pādāya kṛṣṇa-preṣṭhāya bhū-tale
śrīmate bhaktivedānta-svāminn iti nāmine
namas te sārasvate deve gaura-vāṇī-pracāriṇe
nirviśeṣa-śūnyavādi-pāścātya-deśa-tāriṇe

mūkaṁ karoti vācālaṁ paṅguṁ laṅghayate girim
yat-kṛpā tam ahaṁ vande śrī-guruṁ dīna-tāraṇam
paramānanda-mādhavam śrī caitanya īśvaram

“I offer my respectful obeisance unto my spiritual master, the deliverer of the fallen souls. His mercy turns the dumb into eloquent speakers and enables the lame to cross mountains.”

Please accept my respectful humble obeisance unto your lotus feet.

I will never be able to thank you enough for the unlimited showers of mercy given to me to take to Spiritual life and be Kṛṣṇa Conscious. I owe this to my husband who got me into this path and to you who have taken all steps to help me continue my spiritual journey. Now only by your mercy, I am engaged in lots of sevā without involving much into material desires.

My elder son Tejo Kṛṣṇa is getting adjusted to his studies as well as spiritual activities in Mysore. But he needs some good devotee friends in the congregation there. Need your blessings for him to continue his spiritual life strongly along with his material studies.

With your blessings myself and my husband are trying our best to help all the devotees of Gaurāṅga deśa yātrā. But we had to make a sudden decision to move to India. My in-laws and my father have become old and are not keeping that well. They feel that our presence for them much important now. Since we are the only child, we have planned that myself and my younger son will move to India. Prabhu will continue his stay here in Dubai for few more years.

We have training, many devotees in different fields to take up the sevā. So we are pretty sure that they will definitely be volunteering in serving the yātrā together.

I need physical and mental strength to help our parents in their old age. I want to keep them happier and also give them Kṛṣṇa Conscious knowledge. I will also be helping Śrīraṅga Prabhu and other yātrā devotees from India. We have accepted this decision as the mercy of the Lord. Please provide us the all the strength to be connected spiritually in India also.

I would like to offer my heartfelt gratitude to you Guru Mahārāja for the mercy you are always showering upon us and always inspiring us through your vāṇī and life examples.

I am also helping His Grace Padmanayana Prabhu in the Bāla Bhāgavatam Projects. I along with few devotees are trying to make simple videos and PPTs on Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam chapter wise and also are taking up children classes in different parts of the world. I need your blessings to continue this even after I go to India,

I am also very excited to see you directly in some days. Hearing that you are coming to Dubai made all our dreams come true. I would be very happy to be see and take your blessings before I travel to India.

My mind is so fickle. Only you can whip it on the path of devotional service. On this auspicious day, my only prayer is that life after life, I will remain in the service of your lotus feet.

I am begging your forgiveness for my mistakes at your lotus feet. Please empower me so that I can do my devotional service nicely and can carry out your orders for the pleasure of guru and Gaurāṅga.

You are always in our prayers. Get well soon Guru Mahārāja. We will pray to the Lord for keeping you in good health and to give you long life; so you keep us inspiring throughout. We also pray that all your aims and missions get accomplished very soon.

Your loving daughter,

Gopīgaṇa Gītā Devī Dāsī (dīkṣā)
