Hare Kṛṣṇa. Dandavat-praṇāma, Guru Mahārāja.

All glories to Śrīla Prabhupāda.
All glories to Guru Mahārāja.

Dear Guru Mahārāja,

I hope this message finds you in good health and high spirits. Though I feel unworthy to glorify you, as your humble servant, I am compelled to express my deep admiration and gratitude. Your strength, evident in both your photographs and personal presence, inspires me greatly. Your infinite qualities—your simplicity, kindness, and pure love for your disciples—touch my heart profoundly, often leaving me overwhelmed with emotion in your presence.

I would like to share a memory that remains etched in my mind: meeting you in person on May 22, 2024, during the auspicious occasion of Nṛsiṁha Caturdaśī. The joy I experienced that day was beyond words, and I could not hold back my tears upon seeing you after such a long time. On that occasion, I had written a small note for you, unsure if it would reach you. By your mercy alone, it did, making that day the happiest of my life.

Guru Mahārāja, your life exemplifies that Kṛṣṇa consciousness transcends age, as you embraced this path from childhood. Your unconditional love for your disciples, treating us as your own sons and daughters, is a testament to your kind soul. I am eager to seek initiation under your guidance, inspired by the devotion in your voice when you chant “GAURĀṄGA,” reflecting your deep love for Śrī Caitanya Mahāprabhu.

I must confess, Guru Mahārāja, that I have not devoted sufficient time to your lectures, despite your tireless efforts to share wisdom with us in all circumstances. I seek your forgiveness for this shortcoming and humbly bow at your lotus feet, requesting your mercy so I may overcome my mistakes and remain steadfast in my commitment.

Your presence during darśana, with eyes that radiate love for the Lord, leaves an indelible mark on all who witness it. Words fall short in glorifying your boundless qualities, and time feels insufficient to honor you fully.

In closing, I offer my prayers to Śrī Nṛsiṁhadeva, Śrī Śrī Pañca-tattva, and Śrīmatī Rādhārāṇī for your continued well-being, so that souls like me may continue to benefit from your divine association. The phrase “thank you” feels inadequate to convey my gratitude, yet I remain eternally thankful to you, Gurudeva.

Daṇḍavat-praṇāma at your lotus feet.

Your insignificant servant,
Mishka
