Gurudeva I am very fortunate as this is the first time, I got opportunity to write an offering to you. I am a shelter disciple of yours, please Gurudeva accept me as your initiated disciple.
Gurudeva you are the source of inspiration for everyone. I always remember that day as it happens yesterday only. Me and one of my friends visited to Māyāpur for Rādhāṣṭami. We left on 31st of oct 2022 and reached by 1st of September and that day in evening we went to temple, we were talking ki His Holiness Jayapatākā Mahārāja is staying here it would be better if we get chance to have darśana of you. And Gurudeva within half an hour may be devotee started running here and there in temple security prabhujī started tying ropes and making barriers so we thought may be some VIP is coming but suddenly from corner of Narsimha temple I saw you and I was like started shouting its His Holiness Jayapatākā Mahārāja and I seriously felt like you are watching us from there and that moment I was feeling so much blessed I can’t speak in words because we are from non-devotee background even we are not eligible for anything and we unfortunate people you gave us your darśana it is best moment of my life. I don’t have any best or memorable moment in life but now I can say yes this is very best moment in my life whenever I feel low or something good happens or bad happens I always remember this. Gurudeva before this have written many letters to you and you always listen through that letters, that make me realize you are always there with me personally. Gurudeva with your blessing I got nice devotee association please bless me so will always be careful from Vaishnav offence and should not commit any offences knowingly or unknowingly.
