My Dear spiritual father,
Please accept my respectful and humble obeisances of your lotus feet. Being a lonely lady I came to Jagannātha temple without much devotion and expectation. Because I last my only son in an accident which made very impressed. I got separated from my husband at very early stage of my married life and now I am in 70s with my nephew‘s financial support I live alone.
I am very fortunate to meet you in a function – held in Coimbatore Jagannātha temple – your feet touched my head when I paid obeisances to you. After that incident I felt very peaceful and my Kṛṣṇa conscious was progressing slowly and steadily. Regularly I do maṅgala ārati, Tulasī-pūjā, Deity worship, chanting and reading without pending. Apart from thus I do service for Lord Jagannātha like cooking his bhoga, prepare juice and snacks for him on regular basis. Few years back I came to Māyāpur and stayed for a month during Dāmodara month. At that time I prayed that I must get at least a flower from yours hand but by Lord Kṛṣṇa’s mercy I received a garland from you. Which made me very, very happy and blissful.
Again and again I got your mercy. Only with you and Lord Kṛṣṇa’s love, blessings I am able lead my life. I always feel you are there with me eternally. Please bless me to engage in your devotional service.
Give me your blessings for do devotional service.
Yours spiritual daughter,
Govindha Yaśodā Devī Dāsī (Dīkṣā),
