Dear Guru Mahārāja,
Please accept my daṇḍavat praṇāma unto your lotus feet.
By the grace of Yourself, guru-paramparā and Śrī Śrī Gaura Nitāi, we are still continuing our devotional duties.
Your instructions are still in my mind pray to Lord Kṛṣṇa to accept you as His eternal servant. Must chant 16 rounds of Hare Kṛṣṇa mahā-mantra daily. Now our son is 12 years old. Both wife and son are practicing devotional service. I am trying to encourage them in devotional service. Due to my health reasons, family maintenance sevā many times I am finding difficulty in taking care of their all needs.
We pray to Śrī Śrī Gaura-Nitāi for your good health. Kindly forgive us for all the offences we had committed. Kindly bless us so that we progress nicely in our spiritual lives and become instruments in the hands of guru-paramparā.
Your servant,
Jagadguru Balarāma Dāsa
Vṛndāvana, India
