Hare Kṛṣṇa Śrīla Guru Mahārāja. Please accept my respectful obeisances.
All Glories to You and All Glories to Śrīla Prabhupāda.
All Glories to Your Auspicious Appearance Day Śrīla Gurudevā.
It has been more than three years that I am living each moment of my life as Your sheltered disciple and what has remained constant in my life till now is the spiritual bliss. Moreover, I have experienced that the amount of spiritual bliss increases with every new devotional service that You instruct us to perform. You always sing this line in Your lectures ' ānandera sīmā nāhi, nirānanda dūre jāya' so I must say that it is only because of Your instructions, words and presence that I have experienced unlimited ecstasy in the path of Bhakti-yoga that You have shown to the most fallen soul like me.
I did not know the meaning of spiritual bliss in Kṛṣṇa Consciousness earlier but by following Your instructions I am understanding its real meaning. You have given me so many devotional services to perform like studying for becoming a school teacher in Śrī Dhāma Māyāpur, cooking bhoga for Śrī Śrī Rādhā Mādhava, preaching the message of Śrī Śrī Gaura Nitāi to the innocent people, listening to Your lectures and much more so after doing all these services I get an unlimited satisfaction and happiness which I, now, know is spiritual bliss only.
Whenever I am going off the track from the standard methods of Kṛṣṇa Consciousness, Your mercy quickly gives me constant reminders and help so that I come back on track. Guru Mahārāja for me You are a true representative of Lord Nityānanda and it is a request to always allow me to serve Your Lotus Feet for eternity.
Your Sheltered Disciple
