All glories to your auspicious appearance day!
On this very very divine and auspicious day, I pray to Śrī Śrī Rādhā Mādhava, Pañca-tattva, Narasiṁha Prahlāda Mahārāja, The entire guru-paramparā and Śrīla Prabhupāda to bless you with a very very long life, so that you can fulfill all of the instructions of Śrīla Prabhupāda and engage us especially the most fallen me, in the service of guru and Gaurāṅga...
Dear Respected Guru Mahārāja, I by the mercy of Śrīla Prabhupāda and yours, got your divine shelter on 13th April 2022, And ever since, I want to give my life to you... I have a desire to be Kṛṣṇa conscious always and serve and follow Śrīla Prabhupāda’s instructions as it is, but due to my negligence and insincerity I am not able to do it nicely, and whatever I am able to do till today and always it is all and all by yours mercy... Whenever I have kept my prayers to you specially when I am low and feel disappointment in my progress of Bhakti you have always bestow your blessings to me... Each day is a blessing and transcendental fortune for me to be your sheltered disciple... I am also blessed to be surrounded by your very very sincere daughters who are always there to guide and bring me more closer to you...
On this very divine day, I humbly beg at your divine lotus feet, If you so wish, then kindly bless me that I can practice Kṛṣṇa consciousness very sincerely and strictly perform all the instructions given by Śrīla Prabhupāda as it is, You are showing us each of your instruction to us by yourself practicing it and leading us by example, You got your Bhakti-vaibhava degree and 2-3 days later you through YouTube told us that you have started preparing for your Bhakti-vedānta degree too, Guru Mahārāja if you so wish, kindly bless me that I can follow your enthusiasm, dedication and sincerity in reading and hearing vāṇī of Prabhupāda and make you proud with the following degrees which you want us to get...
You are so merciful that you gave me your shelter even when I was least qualified, among all the mercies you gifted me with, one is that the days when I don’t read or hear Śrīla Prabhupāda vāṇī those are the worse conscious days, tasteless and vice versa, I want to serve your instructions and I don’t want to take your mercy for granted, I don’t want to lose this divine opportunity, I don’t want to come back, I want to stay wherever I can serve you and Śrīla Prabhupāda, I don’t want to come back in a state where I am not Kṛṣṇa conscious, Each day you are giving me a chance to be Kṛṣṇa conscious and I am still not taking it sincerely, I want to be sincere and discipline, I want to be an example to others and the purpose to it is to only and only to please you and Gaurāṅga Nitayānanda, I am studying masters in Applied Psychology and in future I wish to study counseling and clinical psychology and the only purpose behind my studies and work will be to expand Kṛṣṇa consciousness and for all these I need your blessings, If you so wish Guru Mahārāja, please bless me that I can leave all my sense enjoyment, lust, anger, greed, false ego, pride and all material desire tendencies and engage fully in your service, use all the money given by my Kṛṣṇa to me in all of the Kṛṣṇa conscious services mainly book distribution, and to make you proud and in no means give you any kind of suffering... I don’t want to come back and fall down, My eternal father, please don’t leave me, if you so wish
Your daily quotes and daily Instagram reels are so strong and touching that if the whole day I can remember it as it is it helps me to be Kṛṣṇa conscious whole day...
Dear Guru Mahārāja, I feel easily connected to Śrīla Prabhupāda but due to my contamination and conditioning I still sometimes fail to connect to you wholly... It is again by your mercy that I would develop tiny love and attachment upon Nitāi Gaurāṅga... Thank you my eternal father....
With all the illness and unfavorable health conditions you are going through and the spiritual consciousness you are with, you have set such an example which no one else can do ever, You are a living example that you are not the body, You are my pride, You are all of us living inspiration, and even after all this if I don’t follow your vāṇī and try to fulfill your instructions what is the use of my birth.... If you so wish Guru Mahārāja, I want to be sincere throughout and if it so please, I will always desire to get your initiation whenever and wherever you wish to give...
Guru Mahārāja, if you so wish, kindly bless my parents to take up Kṛṣṇa consciousness for your blessing and mercy is my only hope....
Thank you for every thing Guru Mahārāja, Śrīla Prabhupāda in the purport of Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam writes about an action of a joker that is he says if a person is attempting to repay the debts of his spiritual master he is considered as a joker because he is attempting to do something which is impossible... I can never repay you Guru Mahārāja but I want to follow your given instructions and vāṇī as my heart and soul, I am an insignificant disciple of yours and without your causeless mercy I am nothing, please if you so wish, eternally engage me in your service and may each day my love, surrender and service to you and Our respected beloved Śrīla Prabhupāda increase in abundance and I dedicate this whole life to you which will give you bliss...
Your most fallen and struggling daughter,
Kirti Sharma (Shelter Disciple)
