Dear Gurumaharaj,
All glories to your 74th auspicious appearance day. By getting this news that you will be here in Māyāpur Dham on your vyāsa pūjā day, I became so much happy.
Just like a small parrot can’t swallow the whole ocean water, similarly I am like that Little parrot who is unable to glorify the ocean like qualities of yours. But as this is your vyāsa pūjā day, so to please you I am writing this offering, as child’s blabbering also gives happiness to his father.
Gurumaharaj,I have heard that you are like Bishmadeb, despite lying on bed of diseases you never stop preaching. So during contemplating on this fact, another realisation also came to my mind ( although this is solely your unconditional mercy that I got this realisation, as said ‘divya jñān hrde prokāsito’) that you are like Abhimanyu. Abhimanyu, during the war of Kurukshetra, got inside the chakravyuh by his own will, get injured by Kaurava side, and lost all weapons one by one, but he didn’t gave up, rather he bravely fought against them with whatever possible things might be used as weapon against Kaurava,even the wheel of the cart and put forth the first victory flag from side of Pandava.
Similarly, you came to this material world, a chakravyuh of birth, disease, oldage and death, by your own will. And you are still fighting against Māyā with your every bit of energy, many times Kali with his different weapons of diseases and suffering tried to stop you, but everytime with innovative ideas you preached more and more, using technologies, like zoom classes, home visits etc. And in this way you are spreading the victory flag of Gaura Nitāi, Harinam sankirtan to every town and village.
In one class of HG Amogh Līlā prabhu, I heard that, if anyone wants to develop love for spiritual master, then he should hear classes from Guru and classes glorifying Guru. So for this, I regularly try to attend JSSS meeting online, where your glories are described by senior desciples of yours. And I also try to hear your online Chaitanya charitamrita classes which is full of nectar. In those classes many times you mentioned to study Śrīla Prabhupad’s book and get different degrees as he has given his whole life for those books and by reading them he will be pleased. And for this reason last year I have done Bhakti Shastri course online from Iskcon Habibpur, under MI and now I am looking for to enroll my name in Bhakti Vaivabh course. Kindly bless me Gurumaharaj so that not only I get those degrees but may I follow those in my life and repeat those philosophies to others.
Gurudev, You are unstoppable for the reason being you have dedicated your whole life to please your Gurudev Śrīla A.C. Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupāda, similarly bless me Gurumaharaj may I also develop unflinching faith towards Guru and Gaurāṅga. Please Gurumaharaj make this moron a simple instrument of your hand, so that it can sing the glories of Gaura Nitāi and Kṛṣṇa consciousness all times.
HARE KṚṢṆA!
