Dear Gurumaharaj
Please kindly accept my obesciences.
I also pay my obesciences to Srila Prabhupada and unto the lotus feet of Sri Nityananda and Gauranga.
I was a little child when Krishna showered his mercy onto me through my grand father who used to read Gita everyday and I just sit beside him. I don't even remember any hearing from his reading but I believe Krishna put me onto this path by his extreme mercy.
Until 44 years I was covered by Illusion of maya until last day of Damodar month of year 2016 I got a call from my wife that some people are coming to our house for a Puja in the evening. I was excited that some auspicious event is going to happen today.By mercy of Krishna and Devotees On that day they asked me if we would like to host Bhakti vriksha in our house and without a second thought me and my wife agreed.
From that day on our Krishna consciousness journey started and we learned so much with the mercy of Devotees who come to run the BV.
But I am such a worst sinister that even after two years attending BV I cannot even chant eight rounds a day and still attracted by materialistic things even though I have full consciousness that these are venoms.
I remember when I first touched your feet and you blessed me with your magic stick. After that I had two more occasions when I got the mercy from Krishna to have your darshan but I remained dumb and fool to not realise that those were my life's most fortunate moments.
I'm not eligible to even write to you directly but since you are most merciful and I believe that only with your blessings I can move forward onto my spiritual journey.
i am like a lowest of the lowest of the living beings and it will take yugs of efforts to purify myself but I'm determined to advance my journey with keeping association with pure Devotees and do my services I'm bestowed by ISCKoN Devotees.
please have mercy onto this poor soul so I can find my guru and do my service to please guru and Krishna forever in future live and forever. I have only this desire.
Yours,
Manish Bhatia
