Hare Kṛṣṇa Dear Guru Mahārāja,
Please accept our most respectful obeisances unto your lotus feet.
All glories to Śrīla Prabhupāda! All glories to Śrī Guru and Śrī Gaurāṅga! All glories to this auspicious day of your appearance!
I, Priyanka Rakesh Chotaliya and my family are Bhakti-vṛkṣa members of your dear disciples His Grace Rāma Kṛṣṇa Prabhujī and Her Grace Śacī Yaśodā Mātājī.
We took Shelter at your lotus feet in September 2021.
On this auspicious day I want to offer my mind, body, and soul at your lotus feet.
All glories to your determination to serve our dear Śrīla Prabhupāda in the mission of spreading the mercy of Lord Caitanya and Lord Nityānanda. We beg for a drop of this sincerity and determination to serve you and please you. Despite of all the challenges, you are enthusiastically serving Śrīla Prabhupāda in the best possible ways, year after year. May Narsimhadeva always protect you.
Gurudeva, you have so many followers, sometimes I feel that probably I will never be able to sit around you personally and take your guidance. One of the main reason for this is that I met you much later in my life and also I am located far away from you.
Gurudeva, I have a deep desire to serve you personally, in a way I can interact with you daily, but only Kṛṣṇa knows when this will be possible. Guru Mahārāja, please give me some instructions personally. Your one or two sentences will be the treasure of my life. I want to please you. I can never repay what you have done and are doing for all of us, but if I can spend my life trying to follow your instruction, I will feel that I am trying to do something to please you.
I listen to your Caitanya-līlā class regularly and listen to your instructions that you give during your classes. Still, I pray at your lotus feet that you give me some instructions directly, it could be the same that you generally want your disciples to do. But that direct instruction of yours to me will be the goal of my life and I will feel more connected to you. I know you have a very busy schedule, but if you feel that my request and prayer is worth answering.
I apologize from my heart for all mistakes and offences at your lotus feet. All I pray is for your sincere blessings so that I can always serve you satisfactorily, without any ulterior motive or interruption.
As of now we are eagerly waiting for harināma-dīkṣā, please shower your mercy on myself and my family and accept us as your eternal servants.
Some of our services at your lotus feet are as follows:
My Prabhu is giving online Bhagavad-gītā classes in Gujarati.
I am trying to spread Kṛṣṇa consciousness by giving classes to young children aged 4 to 12.
Our both children attend weekly classes given by Her Grace Śacī Yaśodā Mātājī.
I am personally trying to gather some funds for TOVP by baking cakes as and when required by devotees.
Our sincere prayers to Śrī Śrī Pañcā-tattva that you continue to serve Śrīla Prabhupāda unto His Divine Grace’s utmost satisfaction and that you always remain blissful and protected.
Your truly insignificant servants,
Priyanka Rakesh Chotaliya,
Rakesh Chotaliya, Aditya (13), Ditya (6).
Śyāmadeśa Yātrā.
