Hare Kṛṣṇa to my dear spiritual guru and father,
Please accept my humble obeisances and koṭi koṭi daṇḍavat praṇāma.
While considering what and how to write to my spiritual master for His 75th Vyāsa-pūjā, I happened to stumble on a 1993 publication of ‘Śrī Guru Mukha Padma Vākya’ and started to read it. Before this I was completing my sādhana sheet to be sent to the admin of the IISE (Ipoh Institute of Spiritual Education) in order to fulfill the final stage of the requirements of Bhakti-śāstrī course. In retrospect to the spiritual activities that happened in my life and the sadhu-saṅga association I had participated this year, especially after completing Bhakti-śāstrī, I regret to say that my sādhana with devotees is poor. This is mainly due to my own ahaṅkāra and other anarthas. Thus, I sincerely beg for you and Gaurāṅga’s mercy to please guide me so that my desire to practice devotional service, especially with devotees, at any place and time, can be materialized.
My dear spiritual father, your glories and mercy is boundless. Please protect me from the allure of māyā!
His Holiness Jayapatākā Swami Mahārāja Vyāsa-pūjā kī Jaya!
Your humble and fallen spiritual daughter,
Ekaniṣṭhā Vasudhā Devī Dāsī
