Dear Guru Mahārāja,
nama oṁ viṣṇu-pādāya kṛṣṇa-preṣṭhāya bhū-tale
śrīmate jayapatākā-svāmin iti nāmine
namo ācāryapādāya nitāi-kṛpa-pradāyine
gaura-kathā dhāma dāya nagara-grāma tāriṇe
nama oṁ viṣṇu-pādāya kṛṣṇa-preṣṭhāya bhū-tale
śrīmate bhaktivedānta-svāmin iti nāmine
namas te sārasvate deve gaura-vāṇī-pracāriṇe
nirviśeṣa-śūnyavādi-pāścātya-deśa-tāriṇe
mūkaṁ karoti vācālaṁ paṅguṁ laṅghayate girim
yat-kṛpā tam ahaṁ vande śrī-guruṁ dīna-tāraṇam
“I offer my respectful obeisance unto my spiritual master, the deliverer of the fallen souls. His mercy turns the dumb into eloquent speakers and enables the lame to cross mountains.”
Please accept my respectful humble obeisance unto your lotus feet.
I would like to utilize this opportunity to glorify your endless mercy and to reflect on your demeanor upon all the Vaiṣṇava devotees. I admire your Vaiṣṇava qualities and admire all those your inspire. I admire your passion and love for Śrīla Prabhupāda’s Mission. I pray that I always remain attached to the shelter of your lotus feet be hanging on to your lotus feet, so that you could help me and my family get liberated from this materialistic world and take back home, back to God head.
Many thanks for your example of surrender and service to Śrīla Prabhupāda and Lord Caitanya’s mission with the sincerity you are serving Śrīla Prabhupāda is extremely praiseworthy-and that’s a wonderful example for all of us to learn how to serve a spiritual master. Your tireless service to Kṛṣṇa and His devotees, in spite of your health condition does boost me when I am low or lazy in Kṛṣṇa consciousness.
I was having good association when I was in Gaurāṅgadeśa with the devotees, but had to leave due to higher studies. Here, I am not that regular in association. But I hope I could get your MERCY to overcome the tricky MIND which sometimes pulls me away from Kṛṣṇa consciousness. I feel extremely fortunate to have you as my Guru. I wish that I stay with you serving you for a long, long time.
Under your shelter, I am seeking your blessing to upgrade and progress in Kṛṣṇa consciousness. Requesting your blessings, so that I will become your spiritually worthy child and will be able to assist your mission of spreading Kṛṣṇa consciousness.
Last November, I also had a chance to come to Māyāpur along with my parents and grandparents. We enjoyed the trip so much and visited many temples. But since you had gone for Purī Parikramā we couldn’t meet you.
Guru Mahārāja, this year, we saw you go through health challenges and You expressed concern about disciples not following their initiation vows. Guru Mahārāja I pray that chanting a minimum of 16 rounds daily and following the 4 regulative principles be the topmost priority of my life. I beg for your mercy so that I can improve the quality of my chanting and get some taste for the Holy name.
On this special day, I pray to Lord Narasiṁhadeva for your good health. Give me your blessings to improve in Kṛṣṇa seva.
Your loving grandson,
Tejo Kṛṣṇa Veeramani. S
