Dear Guru Mahārāja,
Please accept my respectful obeisances. All glories to your Divine Grace. All glories to Śrīla Prabhupāda.
On the most auspicious day of this Kāmada Ekādaśī which is your Divine appearance in this mortal world Please allow me glorify you of your unlimited qualities. Time and again you are proving that when one surrenders to the spiritual master and Gaurāṅga then one can cross all the obstacles and makes all the imposible tasks possible. This you have shown in the last two years when the whole world almost came to a halt with their activities and many of the preachers are taking it easy from travelling and engage in active preaching You have never stopped your preaching activities, like Caitanya līlā classes every evening, Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam classes on Saturday morning, home visits, visiting the temples and taking darshan of Their Lordships, blessing the devotees on their Birthdays, marriage days, praying for the devotees who are going through the health crisis just to name a few and the list can go on and on. This shows you never stop giving your mercy and you never stop serving Śrīla Prabhupāda. – Please dear Guru Mahārāja please bless me so that I can get a fraction of a fraction of your determination to serve you and Śrīla Prabhupāda’s mission.
Here in Perth, the devotees are steadily practicing their devotional services. Its very inspiring to see that many of my God siblings are becoming serious to study Śrīla Prabhupāda books by taking up the courses of Bhakti śāstrī and in the last year many have successfully completed their course and graduated. This is because in one of your class you gave the instruction that you want all of your disciples to study Śrīla Prabhupāda books by doing Bhakti śāstrī, Bahkti Vaibhava and Bhakti Sārvabhuama courses. This devotees are taking seriously. By your mercy and Śrīla Prabhupāda mercy our temple project is going slowly. We have submitted our amended application for DA approval and planning to go for the next step of detailed design work with an aim of starting the project soon. We are hoping to lay foundation in August around Śrī Balarāma pūrṇimā time. We had our first successful Fund-raising dinner in January. This project is becoming a big one and we are afraid how we can do this. One thing is sure we can ONLY DO THIS BY YOUR MERCY and PRAYERS. So we need your blessings to take this project to the next step and beyond to completion.
So on this special day I beg you to always keep me at your lotus feet and engage me in whatever way you feel like. I know you are very compassionate so please be compassionate on this lowly servant of yours.
Your Servant
