Dear Guru Mahārāja,
nama oṁ viṣṇu-pādāya kṛṣṇa-preṣṭhāya bhū-tale
śrīmate jayapatāka svāmin iti nāmine
nama ācāryapādāya nitāi-kṛpā-pradāyine
gaura-kathā-dhāma-dāya nagara-grāma-tāriṇe
Your humble servant, Rāmacandra Karuṇeśa Dāsa, has been traveling on the path of Kṛṣṇa consciousness with you for the past 15 years. This has been possible only by your causeless mercy. You know that I am still struggling to perform my sādhana, and I require even more focus to develop detachment from material life and full attachment to Kṛṣṇa consciousness. This will be possible only by your mercy.
In the coming days, my contribution toward Śrīla Prabhupāda’s mission will increase, and for this, too, I seek your blessings, Guru Mahārāja.
Recently, I see that Your Holiness is becoming more and more enthusiastic and is inspiring devotees. Across Tamil Nadu, Your Holiness is installing the lotus feet of Śrī Caitanya Mahāprabhu.
I pray to Kṛṣṇa for your better health.
Though we are miles apart, my love and connection with you will never depart.
Your humble servant,
Rāmacandra Karuṇeśa Dāsa
