Hare Kṛṣṇa dear Guru Mahārāja!
Please accept my humble respectful obeisances at your lotus feet!
All glories to you Guru Mahārāja on this most auspicious 75th appearance day Vyāsa-pūjā!! All glories to Śrīla Prabhupāda!!
I pray to Śrī Śrī Rādhā Gopīnātha, Gaura-Nitāi, Jagannātha Baladeva Subhadrā and Narasiṁhadeva to protect you and bless you with good health on this special day Gurudeva!
I am extremely grateful and thankful to you Gurudeva for accepting me as your Dīkṣā disciple on last Dec 31st online at ISKCON Sydney. I had waited for it a very long time and though I got distracted multiple times, you have mercifully didn’t let me go away from you but protected me, purified me, pulled me back forgiving my ignorance and blessed me by accepting as your spiritual daughter!
Though I didn’t had the fortune to take your personal darśana yet, I could definitely see you through your wonderful arrangements for me to preach online, by helping me to build relationships with those devotees by pushing me to do Damodar programs at thier homes! Every week when I try to give class with my limited knowledge and preparation, I will be nervous but I see that you are there with me to help me. How can I thank you for all this mercy you are giving me Gurudeva! Please help me to serve you always in your preaching and spreading Kṛṣṇa Consciousness Guru Mahārāja!
To my mother, aunts, elder ladies in my family to whom I had tried to give little knowledge about Kṛṣṇa online being away at Sydney, they were unable to go to temple nor associate with devotees personally due to limitations, but recently through Iskcon Bhodan Telugu online classes driven by your disciples, It seems like you have gone to their homes to give them beautiful online association everyday early in the morning in their comfortable language. They are participating in it interestingly and its very much needed for them in their advanced age. That was so wonderful to realize that if we try to do little, you pull them a long way ahead to Kṛṣṇa and never leave any, Gurudeva! Thank you so much for your mercy upon them!
And I beg your mercy Guru Mahārāja, please help me to do my morning sādhana properly, which I am unable to do how much ever I try due to multiple reasons! I need to be under the shelter of the holy name to serve you Gurudeva otherwise I am just suffering due to my uncontrolled senses and mind, I humbly request you to please help me!
I pray and wish that I will be able to have your personal darśana soon and receive blessings from you! Kindly bless my husband and daughter to progress in their spiritual lives Guru Mahārāja. I thank and pray for my sīkṣā gurus who are your sincere disciples through whom you have reached me Gurudeva.
Jaya Śrīla Guru Mahārāja!
Your spiritual daughter,
Śraddāvatī Suchitrā devī dāsī (Dīkṣā)
