Vyāsa-pūjā 2025

Balakrishna R B (Chennai - India)

HARE KṚṢṆA, Guru Mahārāja!

All glories to Your auspicious Appearance Day!
All glories to Your Divine Grace!
All glories to Gaurāṅga!
All glories to Śrīla Prabhupāda!

Please accept our prostrated, humble obeisances unto Your lotus feet!

I still remember—and the words keep ringing in my ears—when You joyfully addressed the gathering in a sweet kīrtana tone:
"Eat Kṛṣṇa-prasādam! Chant Hare Kṛṣṇa!"

That was 20 years ago when I first saw and heard You on stage, along with the safari devotees, in ISKCON Tirupati. That experience remains etched in my heart as one of the most wonderful moments of inspiration.

Mahārāja! We are humbly seeking Your blessings to assist You in preaching Kṛṣṇa consciousness, distributing books, and participating in nāma-saṅkīrtana. Please keep showering Your divine mercy and blessings upon our family so we may continue to serve at the lotus feet of Your Holiness and Śrīla Prabhupāda, becoming true instruments in the hands of the Vaiṣṇavas.

We seek Your blessings to become increasingly attached to chanting and singing the glories of Śrīla Prabhupāda, Guru-paramparā, the Ṣaḍ Gosvāmīs, Pañca-tattva, Prahlāda and Lord Narasiṁha-deva, Śrī Śrī Rādhā-Govinda and the aṣṭa-sakhī-vṛnda, Girirāja, and especially Śrī Gaurāṅga and Lord Nityānanda

We are praying to Śrī Śrī Rādhā-Govinda and the aṣṭa-sakhīs, and to Śrī Śrī Padmāvatī Bālājī, for Your well-being and long life, Śrīla Guru Mahārāja, so that Your transcendental presence may continue to guide and uplift the whole world.

Always in the service of Hari, Guru, and Vaiṣṇava,
All glories, all glories to You, Śrīla Gurudeva!

Your aspiring disciples,
Yasodhā and Balakrishna
