Vyāsa-pūjā 2022

Pūrṇānandinī Jāhnavā devī dāsī (Bangalore - New Rajapur Dham - India)

Dear Guru Mahārāja,

Please accept my respectful Obeisance. All glories to His Divine Grace A.C. Bhaktivedant Swami Śrīla Prabhupāda. All glories to you and to 73rd Vyāsa-pūjā Mahotsava.

While the world was trying to survive the Pandemic, it was because of your Mercy, that our spirit’s were still high, looking forward to meet you in the zoom class every Sunday, getting the opportunity to offer prasāda, and get your blessings. Thank you so much Guru Mahārāja for giving us this opportunity to serve your lotus feet virtually.

Guru Mahārāja, in spite of so many anarthas in me, you mercifully gave me Shelter, although I’m not at all worthy of it. As I’ve been involved in some translation work for the past 3 years, translating Śrīla Prabhupāda’s lectures, closely scrutinizing his words for translation, I’ve realized more and more how mercifully Prabhupāda has saved Generations of souls. He gave the Kingdom of God to you, and you have not only developed it, but also distributed it all across the globe. All glories to you Guru Mahārāja. Had you not held up the torchlight of Kṛṣṇa Consciousness, how would I ever realize the worthlessness of material endeavors and the right destination to strive for!

To understand I’m not this body but a soul is easier said than done, until we see the live example in you. I have done nothing in this world to deserve your mercy, but still somehow I have got it. If I could develop even an iota of Humility and forbearance that you have dear Guru Mahārāja, my life will be successful.

Guru Mahārāja, I pray to Rādhā Mādhava to keep you healthy, and help us all to always serve your lotus feet. Please Bless that I get rid of my Ego and always Serve You, Gaurāṅga and Vaiṣṇavas, and never ever forget Kṛṣṇa.

Please accept my Respectful Obeisance.

Your most insignificant sheltered disciple,
