Vyāsa-pūjā 2022

Parama Puruṣa Nitāi Dāsa (Brisbane - Australia)

Hare Kṛṣṇa Guru Mahārāja,

Please accept my respectful obeisances,

All Glories to Śrīla Prabhupāda,

All Glories to Gaurāṅga Mahāprabhu.

All glories to your 73rd divine appearance day. Your lectures and quotations have helped me tremendously. It’s with your blessings that I am able to pursue the path of bhakti and connect myself with Kṛṣṇa more and more on a daily basis.

Only by the grace of a spiritual master we can achieve the grace or mercy of Kṛṣṇa. This is the meaning of this Vyāsa-pūjā. (Śrīla Prabhupāda - March 2, 1975 - Atlanta).

Guru Mahārāja, I have understood one thing for sure that my relationship with You and Kṛṣṇa is eternal and that’s the real essence and my other considerations in this material world are temporary. I have made a system of regularly reading books. It keeps my mind occupied and I get a lot of transcendental knowledge. I have realized that it’s better to serve the Lord unconditionally without any ulterior motives and by developing this detachment, I am able to feel the bliss while chanting.

At the moment, I am residing with grihastha devotees, and we worship Śrī Śrī Gaura Nitāi and Jagannātha, Baladeva and Subhadrā Deities. I also listen to His Grace Cāru Prabhu lectures who is based in Spanish Fork, Utah. Both of your lectures and guidance have helped me to strive and thrive for my devotional life. As you have earlier mentioned not to commit any offences and it becomes easier to chant the holy names. I am strictly following the four regulative principles and attentively chanting 16 rounds daily without fail. I am chanting the gāyatrī mantra daily three times attentively. With your causeless blessings, please bless me so I can make progress in my devotional life and also contribute to the movement of Srī Caitanya Mahāprabhu and follow your orders and divine instructions.

To conclude, Guru Mahārāja, please shower your blessings upon me so I am able to serve you in vapuḥ and vāṇī. Please bless me so I can become your instrument in preaching and be able to preach to the conditioned souls about the science of Kṛṣṇa Consciousness. Please bless me so I can visit Shri Dham Māyāpur for studying spiritual scriptures, associate with devotees and develop more faith and purity in the holy name. Please bless me so I can get more sādhu-saṅga for my spiritual growth.

Thank you very much,

Your lowest servant,
