Premānanda Gaura Dāsa (Alachua - New Raman Reti - United States of America)

Hare Kṛṣṇa!

All glories to Śrīla Prabhupāda!
All glories to Śrī Guru and Gaurāṅga!
All glories to You, dearest Guru Mahārāja!

Premānanda Gaura dāsa, Māyāpur Mālinī Devī Dāsī, Viṣṇu Gaurāṅga dāsa, Jaya Nimai Govinda dāsa, and Rādhā-Śyāmā-Śakti Devī Dāsī—we have been praying for You, Guru Mahārāja.

We are very happy to inform You that we had the great honor of hosting dozens of Nāma-haṭṭa programs over the past couple of years in our humble double-wide mobile home—Your home in Alachua, Your old "headquarters," Your Mahā.

Because of Your personal presence in New Godrumadvīpa, it has become a tīrtha, where most people who come in contact with it become favorable to Kṛṣṇa consciousness. Thus, this place emanates a high vibration due to many transcendental pastimes.

We have distributed thousands of plates of prasādam, chanted numerous kīrtanas, and hosted many great Vaiṣṇavas:
His Holiness Rādhānātha Svāmī,
His Holiness Mahā-viṣṇu Svāmī,
His Holiness Bhaktimārga Svāmī,
His Holiness Guruprasāda Svāmī,
His Holiness Bhakti Prabhupāda-vrata Svāmī,
His Holiness Mahattama dāsa, and
His Grace Bada Hari dāsa, to name a few.

With a good friend of Premānanda Gaura—Luis—they have created a camp on the land: Vaikuṇṭha Camp, where chanting the mahā-mantra around a big bonfire and introducing guests to Kṛṣṇa conscious philosophy is our mission. The next day, we take them down the Ichetucknee River and bring them to the Sunday Feast program at the New Rāmaṇa Reti temple!

Many families left with a powerful impression—and Śrīla Prabhupāda’s books! Just this past week, 26 people came from Orlando, with young children (11 total!) and even their dogs (5!).

A great, friendly preaching program!

Prema is also cooking breakfast for the devotees, guests, and Their Lordships’ pleasure from Monday through Friday!

Kṛṣṇa Kiśora Muralīdhārī dāsa, Amala Purāṇa dāsa, and Premānanda Gaura dāsa have been organizing a 6-hour kīrtana one Saturday each month for more than a year. This has been a successful program and has brought the community closer—especially the younger generation, families, and children.

This monthly event has been a great addition to increasing the interest of new families and engaging them in service in the temple kitchen.

All of this is happening because of Your unlimited mercy.

Thank You for always inspiring us and showing by Your example how to become a friend to all and remind them of Kṛṣṇa.

With warm regards and gratitude,

Premānanda Gaura dāsa (prostrated at Your lotus feet)
Māyāpur Mālinī Devī Dāsī
Viṣṇu Gaurāṅga dāsa
Jaya Nimai Govinda dāsa
Rādhā-Śyāmā-Śakti Devī Dāsī

We love You, Guru Mahārāja.
