Dear Guru Mahārāja.
Please accept my humble obeisances in the dust of your lotus feet.
All Glories to Śrīla Prabhupāda.
On this auspicious day of Your Vyāsa-pūjā, I want to offer my respect to your determination in the service to Śrīla Prabhupāda, Śrī Kṛṣṇa, and the Vaiṣṇavas all around the world. Despite Your physical weaknesses, You show an unflinching spirit of a spiritual soldier of Lord Caitanya's army. With great faith, in spite of bodily pain and physical discomfort, you continue to inspire not only your disciples but all the Vaiṣṇavas and even leaders of other Vaiṣṇava traditions.
In "Kṛṣnāmṛta Mahārṇava" of Śrī Madhvācārya it is stated: “On this earth, if a person does not have devotion towards Viṣṇu, one should not even look at him, even if he is a Brahmin, but If a person is born outside of the four Varṇas, but is a devotee of Lord Viṣṇu, such a person will purify the three worlds!”
I pray to you and Śrī Kṛṣṇa to give me same faith and determination to serve Your lotus feet and help to fulfill the mission of Śrīla Prabhupāda.
Yours,
Ālāla Kṛṣṇa dāsa,
