Dearest Guru Mahārāja,
Please accept my respectful obeisances at the dust of your lotus feet.
All glories to Śrīla Prabhupāda! All glories to your divine grace!
I feel so close to you when I try to preach on the street, when I’m in harināma or trying to do book distribution on the street. When I try to serve Śrīla Prabhupāda, in whatever way I can, I always feel you are there right next to me.
Almost every time I used to go to London or Birmingham during your UK visit, you would give me cookie prasādā with your own hand. This simple and sweet experience always inspired me. With your blessings, this year I’ve made a plan to distribute cookie prasādā to 57,000 British athletes during an event in Newcastle, while doing kīrtana in front of them for several hours with devotees from Newcastle.
I also have so many other plans to increase preaching and harināma in North East of England. Because I feel this is the way I can be close to you, my eternal father. I just want to please you my dear father, you are my life and soul!
During this most auspicious time of Vyāsa-pūjā, I humbly pray at your lotus feet that I can be used in whatever way you desire, in the service of Śrīla Prabhupāda, in Prabhupāda’s mission.
Thank you, dearest Guru Mahārāja! Thank you!
Your spiritual son,
