Dear Gurumaharaja, Happy Vyasa Puja!
Please accept my humble obeisances. All glories to You! All Glories to Srila Prabhupada!
On this most auspicious day I would like to express my gratitude to you, Gurumaharaja. There are no words to fully express your glories, your qualities, your preaching activities, and my gratitude to you. Gurumaharaja, you are my inspiration for my Krishna consciousness and for everything I am doing and would like to do in my spiritual life. Because of your love for Srila Prabhupada, compassion and mercy for the entire world, your preaching activities, and your mood and mission I get inspiration to try to contribute to your mission, which is ultimately Srila Prabhupada’s and Lord Gauranga’s mission.
Your love for Srila Prabhupada and Lord Gauranga is so immense that no matter what your bodily condition is, nothing stops you in your service. Every moment, every step, every word is dedicated to Krishna. Not a single moment is wasted or think about yourself, you are Patita-pavana the most merciful that even when you are in the hospital you are preaching to the doctors and nurses. Nothing can stop Gurumaharaja.
When I see you or even think of you, I understand that all my petty problems are nothing because my real problem is that I am in this material world and how will I come out. When I think of you, I get hope, inspiration, happiness, enthusiasm that I can do it in this life, by your mercy. I get determination and want to surrender my life to Krishna. All insignificant thoughts and problems vanish and I know the only thing that matters is to make Gurumaharaja happy and then my life will be of use and a success.
If I can please you, Gurumaharaja I will consider my life successful. Because all my goals, service, everything in my Krishna Consciousness is for you and because of you. I am so grateful, you have given me everything. What life is better than a life in Krishna Consciousness? You have allowed me to live in Mayapur Dham which means everything to me, I never want to leave. A life in Krishna Consciousness in Sridham Mayapur, fraught with Kirtan and other programs, association of devotees, and a life filled with opportunities for service, this is the perfect life. This is perfection. This is only due to your mercy and blessings.
I am ever indebted to you, Gurumaharaja, so I would like to dedicate my life to your mission. You are a powerhouse full of ideas and projects for the CDM, inspiring us to do more and more for the all the devotees and communities around the world. I have taken up the Children Services Section and this is my connection with you Gurumaharaja. This is how I want to dedicate my entire life, to put Krishna, Srila Prabhupada and you in the centre. I have many ideas for my service, but nothing is possible without the mercy and blessings of Guru and Krishna. Please bless me that I can do something big for Krishna, something big for you, just like Srila Prabhupada said, Chase the Rhinos, do something big for Krishna.
Please always keep me under the shelter of your lotus feet. Please forgive me for any offenses I may have committed to your lotus feet.
Your disciple and spiritual daughter,
Gourangi Gandharvika Devi Dasi,
Sridham Mayapur
