Dear God brothers and sisters,
Daṇḍavat praṇāmas.
Pls include the below homage in the printed book for Vyāsa Pūjā from myself, Sumadhurī Champakalatā Devī Dāsī, second initiated disciple of His Holiness Jayapatākā Swami Guru Mahārāja.
Am from Mumbai, Śrī Śrī Rādhā-Gopinātha temple, ISKCON Chowpatty.
Dearest Guru Mahārāja,
Hare Kṛṣṇa!!
Please accept my respectful obeisances to your merciful Lotus Feet.
My heart is overwhelming with joy as I wish you another year of exemplary Kṛṣṇa conscious service and inspiration to millions of souls and disciples like me.
Guru Mahārāja, you are the reason I am subsisting consistently in my devotional services which I perform on your behalf at the temple and our congregation. You are the source of my spiritual energy, enthusiasm, and the love I feel for Rādhā-Kṛṣṇa & Mahāprabhu. Your empowerment you gave me through initiations and consistent instructions every single day have transformed my devotional services.
I am grateful for your instructions through your everyday lectures and updates on the Jayapatākā Swami app. It has become my lifeline giving me your constant association throughout the day every single day.
On this auspicious occasion of Gaura Pūrṇimā, as I write this homage and prepare my consciousness for your approaching Vyāsa Pūjā, I cannot reflect enough on the abundant mercy I have received and continue to receive from your Holiness. Because of your mercy, I can appreciate the immense mercy of Lord Nityānanda and Lord Caitanya who appeared for fallen conditioned souls like me who otherwise had no chance with this baggage of millions of lifetimes of sins.
However, because of your mercy Guru Mahārāja, I am serving consistently at the Śrī Śrī Rādhā-Gopinātha temple at Mumbai for deity worship services and Śrī Śrī Rādhā-Ramaṇajī at the nearest devotee congregation. We celebrated Gaura-Pūrṇimā recently and I could see your mercy flowing in for the various services I so fortunately got the opportunity for. All these services Guru Mahārāja I only perform on your behalf with you at the centre of my service.
My only prayer to you on this day, Guru Mahārāja is to kindly keep me engaged in your service lifetime and lifetime and please never give up on me.
My best wishes, sincere prayers, heartfelt gratitude and deepest love to your Lotus Feet dearest Gurudeva on this wonderful occasion of your 74th appearance day and many many many more to come.
Your spiritual daughter,
Sumadhurī Campakalatā Devī Dāsī.
Mumbai, Śrī Śrī Rādhā Gopinātha temple,
