My dear Guru Mahārāja,

Please accept my respectful obeisance.

All glories to Śrīla Prabhupāda

All glories to Śrī Guru and Gaurāṅga

Everyday has been a struggle with my insincerity. So many opportunities for serving your divine grace and the temple, yet so many excuses I have for not doing them.

On this auspicious day, my prayers at your lotus feet should be to commit to better whatever little service I am doing. Praying that I do not let down so many wonderful devotees and god brothers, whose association is a huge blessing on me, though I do not deserve.

You inspire me in every way with your love for all of us and faith in the words of Śrīla Prabhupāda. The mercy of Gaurāṅga flows through you and I am so fallen that I am not able to capture it sincerely.

From the many instructions you give us - in the past year, I have taken on doing the Bhakti Vaibhav course from Māyāpur Institute after finishing Bhakti Shastri in 2020.

Thank you for all the mercy and love you shower on us every day, every moment.

Your servant,
Sanātana Nitāi gaura Dāsa
