Dear Guru Mahārāja,

Please accept my respectful obeisance

All glories to Śrīla Prabhupāda

All glories unto your Pada Padma

All glories to you on this auspicious day of your Vyāsa-pūjā.

We cannot find words to express our gratitude for your mercy and loving compassion on accepting most insignificant jīva like us as your disciples. For this mercy we’re greatly indebted to you for eternity as debt of love can never be repaid. Janme janme Prabhu sei

Dear Ācāryapāda you’re contributing every moment in the mission of Śrīla Prabhupāda which is great inspiration for the entire Vaiṣṇava community. Every words and actions of yours are great lessons for us.

Even being bhāgyavān Jīva we find great difficulty to practice sādhana bhakti with agitated minds. Having many weeds in our heart like kāptya, dambha, ālasya make it very evident that we’re most fallen. You stand only hope for us as you’re Śrī-guru karuna-sindhu, adhama janara bandhu.

On this auspicious Vyāsa-pūjā we seek your blessings that we always engage in your mission which is goal of our lives. Cittete koriya aikya

You instructed us as husband and wife engage in mission of Śrī Kṛṣṇa Caitanya, we’re serving in various ways but we’re praying and working to enhance our sevas to our full capacities. We intend to increase our Shravanam and Kirtanam and reading Śrīla Prabhupāda books as you instrusted.

Currently am teaching short courses and preparing contents for Vṛndāvana Institute for Higher Education.

My wife Rādhā Varadeswari Devī Dāsī is a carnatic vocals teacher and is planning to continue her online Bhakti Courses which got interrupted due to students examinations.

We are also engaged in assisting smaller centres in Kerala towards their Kīrtana needs. As both of us are musically abled, we’re trying to compose Vaiṣṇava Bhajans in Carnatic. Seek blessings for the same.

Begging you to bless us so that we can always be at your service to your Pada Padma. Please give us a drop of your cause less mercy to kindly engage us in the Saṅkīrtana movement of Lord Caitanya. This is our humble Vyāsa-pūjā offering at your Pada Padma.

Thank you for everything dear Guru Mahārāja.

Your insignificant servants,

Navakiśora Govinda Dāsa (Dīkṣā) with

Rādhā Varadeśvarī Devī Dāsī (Dīkṣā)
