My dear Guru Mahārāja,
On this auspicious day, we beg to offer our humble obeisances at your lotus feet. Gurudeva, the Bhagavatam says without your blessings one cannot serve Krsna and the Vaisnavas.
naiṣāṁ matis tāvad urukramāṅghriṁ
spṛśaty anarthāpagamo yad-arthaḥ
mahīyasāṁ pāda-rajo-'bhiṣekaṁ
niṣkiñcanānāṁ na vṛṇīta yāvat (SB 7.5.32)
By your blessings, we are very happy in Krsna consciousness and day by day we are improving in our spiritual life. Our family life is also sailing smoothly and we desire to serve you life after life.
Your humble servants,
Praṇānanda Dāsa
Murti Śṛyah Devī Dāsī
Pūrṇimā (11 months)
