Dear Śrīla Prabhupāda,
Please accept our humble obeisances at Your lotus feet.
On behalf of the entire Izhevsk yatra, we express our deepest gratitude to you for your boundless mercy, for your feats, and for what you have done for the entire world – and for each of us personally.
Thanks to your fearlessness, your faith, and your devotion to the Lord, the fire of Kṛṣṇa consciousness is burning even in the distant city of Izhevsk. This fire is a living force that changes destinies, unites people, and brings the soul back to its true purpose.
Izhevsk is known as the “arms capital” of Russia. It is a place where weapons capable of protecting the body are created. However, through your grace, our city has gained something much more valuable – spiritual weapons capable of protecting the soul.
Your books, the holy name, and knowledge about God have become the very weapons that destroy ignorance, fear, and illusions. Previously, there was an external struggle, but now, by your grace, there is a deeper battle in Izhevsk – a battle for consciousness, for people’s hearts, and for the return of the soul to its original nature.
Śrīla Prabhupāda, your mission came to Izhevsk through sincere devotees in the 1980s. The first steps were very simple and at the same time heroic: devotees gathered in apartments, opened small ashrams, and distributed books that were literally brought in bags from other cities.
In 1991, the Krishna Consciousness Society in Izhevsk was officially registered. From that moment on, the gradual development of the yātrā began: from apartment programs to rented premises, from small gatherings to regular Sunday programs and celebrations.
Throughout these years, the main service remained the distribution of books. Already in 1992, a powerful record was set: more than 34,000 books per year. And this line of service continues to this day.
Over 35 years 265,857 books have been distributed in Izhevsk, and in 2025 alone, 8230 books. Through these books, thousands of people had the opportunity to come into contact with spiritual knowledge for the first time.
Today, the Izhevsk yātrā has about 200 devotees. 80–100 people regularly attend Sunday programs, 150–200 people attend holidays, and about 300 people attended Janmāṣṭamī in 2025. But, Śrīla Prabhupāda, we understand that the most valuable thing is not the numbers but the people. Behind each number is someone’s destiny, someone’s heart, someone’s meeting with the truth.
By your grace, saṅkīrtana is developing in the yātrā. In 2025, we held 39 harināmas, with a total of about 100 devotees participating, and an average of about 24 people per event. About 6,000 prasādam balls were distributed. By comparison, in 2024, 36 harināmas were held with about 101 people participating, with an average of 22 people per event, and about 5,400 prasādam balls were distributed. We see how gradually the engagement and inspiration is growing.
By your grace, the service of distributing prasādam is also developing. In 2024, 24 programs were held, during which 2,987 portions of consecrated food were distributed to the residents of the city. Such monthly events become a living manifestation of compassion in action. Over the past year, new devotees have joined the saṅkīrtana and a team has been formed, which is a special joy for us. Devotees also actively participate in city and national events, sharing their spiritual culture with thousands of people:
- Mantra concert “Awakening” – attended by about 200 people
- Ectonica Festival (main stage) – attended by about 6,000 people
- Window to the Sky Festival – attended by about 2,000 people
- Yoga Day – attended by about 500 people
- Janmāṣṭamī festival – attended by about 300 people
- Other city events – attended by up to 300 people
Through music, kirtans, communication, and prasādam, people get the opportunity to come in contact with spiritual life for the first time.
A special stage in the development of the yātrā was the transition to its own space. For a long time, programs were held at rented premises, but gradually there was a desire and need to have our own place for service. In 2020, the first building, with an area of about 60 square meters, was built. And then in 2021, the construction of a large pandal began.
This project was a real manifestation of unity. Devotees built with their own hands, donated funds, supported one another. Gradually, the pandal grew into a full-fledged space with an area of about 420 square meters, with an altar of 170 square meters, designed for about 250 people. This pandal is not simply a building; it is the result of cooperation, faith, and inspiration. It is a place where people can come, listen, serve, communicate, and develop their spiritual lives.
The yātrā offers various forms of service: worshiping the Deities, preparing prasādam, organizing Sunday programs, taking care of families and children, conducting kirtans, decorating the altar, sewing clothes, distributing books, and providing education and support to new people. Everyone from children to senior devotees has a place to serve.
Financial support for the mission is also growing. Devotees are donating as much as they can, and there are even some philanthropists who have made significant contributions to the construction of the pandal. We see how your mission is bringing people together at different levels.
Śrīla Prabhupāda, you write: “Kṛṣṇa is powerful enough to give His devotee whatever opportunities he desires, provided that the devotee works very sincerely for His pleasure.” We are trying to live with this understanding. Sometimes we lack strength, sometimes we have doubts, but your mission inspires us to keep going. The most important thing we want to say is:
You didn’t just start a movement. You gave us life. You gave us direction. You gave us the opportunity to be part of a spiritual family.
Please allow us to continue being a part of your mission. Give us the sincerity, humility, and determination to keep serving.
Let our yātrā become a tool in your hands. May each of us be able to use the spiritual weapons you gave us to help others and spread the light of knowledge.
Thank you for everything, Śrīla Prabhupāda. Thank you for the books. Thank you for the holy name. Thank you for the spiritual family. Thank you for the opportunity to serve.
With deep gratitude and love,
Your servants at ISKCON Izhevsk

Most dear and beloved Śrīla Prabhupāda,
Please accept our most humble obeisances at your lotus feet. All glories to Your Divine Grace.
Śrīla Prabhupāda, standing here today, looking back at this past year in Simhachalam, we feel a mixture of exhaustion, gratitude, and something deeper – a quiet certainty that somehow, despite all our limitations, you are still carrying everything forward.
This year tested us.
Especially our summer season: six continuous weeks of festivals, one flowing into the next, like waves that never paused to let us breathe. Kirtan, cooking, organizing, welcoming guests, cleaning, guiding, serving … again and again, day after day. At some point, we stopped asking, “Can we still do this?” and simply continued.
Our devotees were tired, truly tired. Bodies weak, minds stretched … But at the same time, hearts full. Because somehow, in that intensity, your presence became more real.
We saw it in the kirtans that lifted us when we had no strength left. We saw it in the smiles of guests who had come for the first time. We saw it in the way devotees kept showing up, even when there was nothing left to give.
And after this intense summer, although there was never a complete break – as there is always something unfolding at Simhachalam – you guided us into a season of reorganization.
In the autumn we were able to step back, clean up, restructure, and regain clarity. At the same time, a new temple council was established and then expanded, bringing in additional experienced devotees into the leadership. This newly formed team creates greater stability, shared responsibility, and continuity in guiding Simhachalam forward.
And now, in the spring of 2026, we find ourselves again in your service – but this time with renewed determination. Twice a week we gather for Clean Scene – that is, cleaning, organizing, and preparing your temple for Narasiṁha Caturdāśi.
And as always, these weeks before the festival carry a certain tension:
Will everything be ready?
Will all services be covered?
Will the devotees come?
Will we manage?
Yet at the same time, there is deep excitement. Because we know what is coming: the most powerful darshans of the year. The amazing pavitram mālā-pūjā. The overwhelming beauty of Śrī Śrī Prahlāda-Lakṣmī-Narasiṁhadeva’s mahā-abhiśeka. The fire of yajñas. The waves of kirtan. The nectar of hari-kathā spoken by your direct disciples.
And the breathtaking flower outfit, arranged with such devotion, revealing the Lord in a special, radiant splendor, along with the offering of sandesh in all its sugary opulence, prepared with love and presented in such abundance.
Narasiṁha Caturdāśi is not just a festival for us. It is a moment where the spiritual world touches Simhachalam.
Śrīla Prabhupāda, at the same time, something else has begun to move forward. After many discussions, efforts, and much patience, doors are slowly opening with the local authorities. We are now moving toward submitting a repurpose application for our oversized barn, with the vision of transforming it into a guest facility, so that we may properly host the increasing number of visitors coming to your temple.
But before that, we are taking a practical first step: the construction of a children’s hut – a space for your youngest devotees, a place where they can grow, play, learn, and feel protected. This project might seem small in scale, but it is large in meaning, because, Śrīla Prabhupāda, the future of Simhachalam is already running through our courtyard every day.
We pray that these children will develop deep roots in your mission, that they will not only inherit this place but carry your vision forward with strength and conviction.
Along with this hut, a new Tulasī house is planned so that Vṛndā Devī can reside throughout the entire year without the need to be moved seasonally.
In addition, the restructuring of the barn requires further preparations: as the upper level, currently used for hay storage, is intended to become sleeping space for guests, a new, suitable shelter for hay storage must be established as part of the goshala infrastructure.
All of these steps are essential prerequisites and must be completed before we can formally submit the usage application for the barn conversion.
Śrīla Prabhupāda, we also want to offer you our heartfelt reflections on saṅkīrtana, which remains the life and soul of Simhachalam.
The saṅkīrtana community events have grown beautifully. Again and again, devotees come together to organize harināmas, book distribution, kirtan, and prasādam outreach in nearby cities. These events carry a special spirit of cooperation, enthusiasm, and a taste of your movement alive on the streets.
And yet at the same time, we feel a deeper prayer arising. We pray for new saṅkīrtana devotees. We pray for a strong and stable brahmacārī ashram, where devotees can fully dedicate themselves to your mission. We make these prayers because although the structure is there and the events are taking place, your saṅkīrtana mission is asking for new strength.
We feel it.
We pray that you send the right souls – those who are ready to go out, take risks, depend on your mercy, and distribute your books with conviction and faith.
Please empower us, Śrīla Prabhupāda, to not only maintain saṅkīrtana but to revive it in full force.
Sometimes, we feel overwhelmed. Sometimes, we don’t know how everything will come together. But one thing is clear: our roots are deeply planted in this sacred place. And our life’s purpose is simple: to continue what you have started.
We pray for our community: for unity among the devotees of Simhachalam. For stronger relationships between families and ashrams. For cooperation in service.
Because we are learning, again and again that without your devotees, Simhachalam cannot exist. Please bless them with intelligence to serve properly; with humility to work together; with devotion to stay steady; with strength to continue; and with your mercy, always.
Śrīla Prabhupāda, thank you for giving us this life. Thank you for giving us Simhachalam. Thank you for protecting us and engaging us in the service of Śrī Śrī Prahlāda-Lakṣmī-Narasiṁhadeva. Every challenge we face only reminds us that we are still under your shelter.

Dear Śrīla Prabhupāda,
Please accept the humble obeisances, deep gratitude, respect, and love from the devotees of the Kazan ISKCON community.
Thanks to you, our life has gained meaning, colors, taste, and a long-awaited joy. You came into this world and brought love and devotion to Kṛṣṇa in words, sound, and a way of life, and thus saved us, giving us new life.
Your books are like air to us. Breathing them in, we are inspired to serve. Through Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam and all your other works, we have found answers to the most intimate questions, learned to think, reflect, and awaken the mind in order to live according to the laws of God. There are no analogs to these books, and it is only by your grace that we have been able to become acquainted with Kṛṣṇa, His abode, and our eternal nature as integral parts of the Supreme Personality of Godhead.
You have given us a chance for meaningful, pure relationships – with guru, Kṛṣṇa, and those who follow the same path. Loneliness in the crowd was replaced by a sense of belonging to a great family of devotees, united by one goal: to return home, back to Godhead. You have shown us a taste of spiritual life, which includes joyful chanting, kirtans, prasādam, and sincere communication, and you taught us that renunciation without love is suffering, and love without rules is chaos.
We are grateful to you for being patient with our failures and for lifting us up again and again through strict but compassionate guidance. Knowing that you look at us through your books and the words of your followers, we gain the strength to continue the path, purify ourselves, become more honest, sincere, attentive, benevolent, and selfless. Thanks to you, we are learning to interact with each person as an eternal person, an inseparable part of Śrī Kṛṣṇa.
You have given us a priceless jewel – the path of happiness to Kṛṣṇa, pure devotional service, which Lord Caitanya reveals to us all by your grace. Since our contact with the Vaiṣṇavas and Kṛṣṇa consciousness, our vision of the world has completely changed: we have learned about the spiritual world, about Śrī Kṛṣṇa and Śrīmatī Rādhārāṇī, about our true position and what we really should do in this world. You have settled in our hearts, and as long as we are alive, we will remember with gratitude the precious gift that you gave us.
Thank you for the fact that every day our fears go away, even those we did not realize we had. We are no longer afraid of a lonely and empty old age because there is always service in your family – live and online, external and internal – and you can stay engaged in your mission until your last breath. Thanks to your grace, we are not living someone else’s life, but gradually learning to live the life that really leads to the lotus feet of Śrī Śrī Rādhā-Mādhava.
We are eternally indebted to you, our dear teacher. To the best of our ability, we will continue to serve your mission, distribute your books, chant the holy name, support each other, and follow the path you have paved for us. We hope that by following your instructions, we will meet you and Kṛṣṇa again one day.
Your humble servants,
The devotees of ISKCON Kazan

Dear Śrīla Prabhupāda,
Please accept our most humble obeisances at the dust of your lotus feet. All glories to Your Divine Grace!
We are very grateful for the opportunity to thank you for everything you have done for human society and for each of us personally.
Thank you very much for the books and temples that you have given to all of us.
Thank you for the festivals and the culture of spiritual life that you so skillfully introduced into our lives.
Thank you for your example and instructions, which you have bestowed upon humanity for the next ten thousand years.
You are a great personality, for your determination to preach Kṛṣṇa consciousness and to make people happy knows no bounds. As it is said in the Bhagavad-gītā (3.21): “Whatever action is performed by a great man, common men follow in his footsteps. And whatever standards he sets by exemplary acts, all the world pursues.”
By your mercy, a true miracle is now taking place in the world. In the midst of Kali-yuga, more and more people are taking up the spiritual path of chanting the holy names. This has become possible only because of your sacrifice of comfort and personal peace. You left Vrindavan and went to the West, where death itself could have awaited you. Even the journey to America could have ended tragically. And it may have seemed that the people of America were not at all ready for your spiritual message. But by your mercy, Kṛṣṇa inspired your first disciples, and now we have received our chance.
You gave us the meaning of life. You filled our hearts with inspiration and engaged us in eternal service to the Supreme Personality of Godhead, Śrī Kṛṣṇa.
On this day, thousands of your followers will offer you their respects for giving the priceless gift of love of God and for explaining how to attain it and preserve it amidst the distractions of material life.
You perfectly fulfilled the instruction of your spiritual master, and now the holy name of Lord Kṛṣṇa can be heard in the most remote corners of the world. People are attracted by the beauty of the Supreme Personality of Godhead – His opulence, knowledge, strength, and renunciation. Kṛṣṇa empowered you to become His messenger and to give people the invaluable gift of transcendental love of God and the opportunity to understand their eternal relationship with Him.
We are but tiny living beings, one ten-thousandth the size of the tip of a hair, yet understanding our true nature – the nature of a servant – gives us the chance to attain pure, selfless love of God. You wrote an immense number of books – something no ordinary person could accomplish. Kṛṣṇa Himself guided your hand to reveal the philosophical truths of Vedic knowledge. Without the Bhagavad-gītā, Śrīmad-Bhāgavatam, and your other works, it is impossible to understand the purpose of human life. Through the examples of great personalities of the past, you showed how a modern person should live in order to pass the most important examination at the end of life – to remember Kṛṣṇa and, to the sound of the holy name, enter the kingdom of God.
On this earth we are merely passengers. The material world is not meant for gentlemen, as you often said, and we should not linger here. We are souls, yet out of ignorance we identify ourselves with the body. By your example, you showed what it means to serve the Lord selflessly, offering one’s entire being. You laid the foundation for the spiritual advancement of all humanity. The people of Kali-yuga are weak, both physically and spiritually. Lord Caitanya proclaimed the sanātana-dharma of this age: the chanting of the holy names of the Lord. We sing, we dance, and we take delicious prasādam – a wonderful philosophy. One only needs to humbly accept God into one’s life and not claim what does not belong to us.
On this most auspicious day of your Vyāsa-pūjā, the devotees of the Kherson community unite their hearts to offer you their lives and their service. Although our city has become a place of great external hardship, being on the very front line, your mercy remains the unshakable foundation of our lives.
Śrīla Prabhupāda, due to the ongoing war, most members of our community have been scattered across the world. Today, your followers from Kherson chant the holy names and serve your mission in Ireland, Germany, Spain, Portugal, Romania, and many other countries. Although we are physically far from our homes and from one another, we remain more united than ever. Every morning we gather online to chant our rounds of the mahā-mantra together, and each day we meet in the digital space to read and discuss your transcendental books. We are united by our shared devotion to your instructions.
At the same time, a courageous group of devotees continues to maintain the fire of Kṛṣṇa consciousness in the very heart of Kherson. By your mercy, here in Kherson – practically on the front line of the war – Kṛṣṇa gives us the opportunity to cook and distribute prasādam, to perform harināma-saṅkīrtana in the streets of the city, to distribute your books, and to gather for Sunday festivals and nāma-haṭṭa programs.
We humbly present a report of our local activities for your satisfaction:
- Distribution of kṛṣṇa-prasādam: each week, despite the constant threat of drones, missiles, and shelling, devotees cook and distribute about 300 liters of kṛṣṇa-prasādam several times a week at seven distribution points. We strive to help those most in need, following your instruction that no one within a ten-mile radius of a temple should go hungry.
- Saṅkīrtana and harināma: even in a city under fire, we continue to hold Sunday programs, nāma-haṭṭas, and kirtans. The sound of the mahā-mantra serves as the only true shelter for souls at this time.
- Unity in service: whether serving abroad or under shelling at home, the devotees of Kherson are one family under your protection. We see your hand in every moment of protection and inspiration.
Śrīla Prabhupāda, we are simply trying to be humble instruments of your compassion. You gave everything to bring the light of the holy name to the world, and we pray for the strength to follow in your footsteps with sincerity and courage.
We pray for your continued blessings so that we may remain steady in service, wherever the waves of destiny may carry us. May our city and the whole world attain peace through your divine instructions.
We understand that even if we have some experience and skills, they are insignificant, and Kṛṣṇa, as the Supreme Personality, deserves much more than we can give. Still, we feel great joy that, for some reason, we have been placed in this wonderful society that you created.
We wish to continue our small attempts to be of service to you, to Lord Caitanya, and to Lord Nityānanda. Please guide us on the path of devotion and do not allow us to deviate. We are your eternal debtors and hope for the opportunity to continue serving your lotus feet.

Dear to-our-hearts Śrīla Prabhupāda!
Please accept our humble obeisances. All glories to Your Divine Grace!
My name is Gaura-siṁha Dāsa. I serve as president of the ISKCON temple in Krasnodar, in the South Russia Region. My wife, Dāmodara Rati Devī Dāsī, serves as the main pūjarī at this temple. Today, on the auspicious day of your Vyāsa-pūjā, allow us to address you on behalf of ourselves and all the devotees of our temple of Śrī Śrī Rādhā-Śyāma and Śrī Gaurāṅga with respectful and grateful words.
By Your Divine Grace, the true reason for which remains a mystery to us, a very special idea one day entered our minds and hearts – to try to invite Śrī Śrī Rādhā and Kṛṣṇa into our lives and the spiritual life of our city, to build a beautiful, comfortable, and bright temple for Them, and to cultivate a beautiful garden with numerous kuñjas for Their pleasure. This inspiration came to us, as you know, from you personally in 2014 at the Krishna-Balaram temple in Vrindavan. It was then, standing before you in your Samādhi Mandir that we felt your blessing for this special service.
Undoubtedly, we made some efforts and performed certain austerities within our bodies and minds, as much as we could in this age of spiritual degradation, a time of discord and conflict. But the true driving force behind this internal and external process of building the temple was, of course, you, dear Śrīla Prabhupāda. It is precisely by the power of your grace and blessings, as well as the blessings of your disciples, that this truly miraculous establishment of the temple can be attributed. Thus, on April 10, 2022, on the sacred day of Rāmanavamī, the beautiful Deities of Śrī Śrī Rādhā-Śyāma and Śrī Gaurāṅga were installed in this new temple.
Furthermore, it was only by your grace and blessings that we were given the opportunity to serve in this temple, despite lacking the necessary qualifications, having been born and raised in families with heavy karma, and especially in this age of Kali – an age of degradation and strife. This service at the temple has been going on for four years now, and each year it becomes more and more splendid. The atmosphere in the temple becomes increasingly spiritual and attracts many devotees and new people. We never cease to be amazed by this.
Dear Śrīla Prabhupāda, we feel that you have been with us all this time. We constantly feel your presence both in the temple’s altar room, where you are constantly present in the form of your deity, and in your books, which we regularly read and draw great inspiration from. We sense your presence through the love and cooperation of devotees, and we sense your presence when we reflect on the example of your life and all the incomprehensibly difficult obstacles you overcame in your desire to give people throughout the world this priceless gift of Kṛṣṇa consciousness.
A few months after the opening of the temple, on the sacred day of your appearance, your deity was installed in the temple directly opposite Śrī Śrī Rādhā-Śyāma and Śrī Gaurāṅga. On that day, as I offered you words of glorification, I felt inspired to offer you our entire service and our lives as devoted servants of this temple. Then, completely unexpectedly, these words burst from my mouth. As it turns out, this same desire was in the hearts of many devotees serving in the temple, and from that time this offering has been repeated every day since: all the devotees in the temple pray to be instruments in your hands, offering you their service and lives. Thus, we can feel that you direct all service in the temple. Every day, we feel your mercy, your blessings, your love, and your acceptance of us into your spiritual family.
We sincerely thank you, dear Srila Prabhupada, for everything we see, hear, and feel. We thank you for this opportunity to be part of your spiritual family, for this opportunity to participate in this Kṛṣṇa consciousness movement, for the opportunity for spiritual development and service.
Please accept our service, our inspiration, our creativity, and our lives as an offering to you, and please bless us to reach true, pure, and unalloyed devotion in this life. Bless us to chant the mahā-mantra purely: Hare Kṛṣṇa Hare Kṛṣṇa, Kṛṣṇa Kṛṣṇa Hare Hare / Hare Rāma Hare Rāma, Rāma Rāma Hare Hare. Bless us to understand the science of devotional service that You have given us in Your transcendental books. And bless us to render selfless and devoted service to Śrī Śrī Rādhā-Śyāma and Śrī Gaurāṅga!

Dear Śrīla Prabhupāda,
Please accept our most humble obeisances at your lotus feet.
nama oṁ viṣṇu-pādāya kṛṣṇa-preṣṭhāya bhū-tale
śrīmate bhaktivedānta-svāminn iti nāmine
namas te sārasvate deve gaura-vāṇī-pracāriṇe
nirviśeṣa-śūnyavādi-pāścātya-deśa-tāriṇe
On this most auspicious occasion of your divine appearance, we offer our heartfelt homage and reflections. Over the past year, we have encountered both challenges and encouraging developments within our congregation. With sincere determination, we are striving to establish a permanent temple, a sacred home for Śrī Śrī Karuṇa-Nitāi Gauracandra and a spiritual center from which your preaching mission can continue to expand.
Deeply inspired by your unparalleled efforts in founding this movement, we feel a strong eagerness to follow in your footsteps. At the same time, we remain ever aware that our endeavors are but small and insignificant in comparison to your extraordinary service.
We are grateful to share that an increasing number of devotees are taking enthusiasm in participating in harināma and distributing your transcendental books. As you so powerfully emphasized that book distribution is your life and soul, we carry this instruction in our hearts. With renewed energy and devotion, we go out to the streets to share the mercy contained within your writings with those who may still be covered by ignorance. You taught that even if one person becomes Kṛṣṇa conscious the mission is successful, and we understand that this transformation is made possible through the books you so compassionately wrote, often under great difficulty. We therefore feel a deep responsibility to continue this service.
At the same time, we are placing increasing attention on nourishing and caring for the devotees within our community. We recognize the importance of spiritual support, meaningful relationships, and genuine care. United in our shared goal of reviving our eternal relationship with Kṛṣṇa, we strive to cultivate a spirit of cooperation and friendship, knowing that this journey is best undertaken together.
To sustain and expand these efforts, a suitable temple building would be a great blessing. We humbly pray at your lotus feet that, by your mercy, such an opportunity will manifest. Until that time, we remain committed to serving you in whatever capacity we can, dedicated to preserving and carrying forward your teachings and legacy.
Thank you, Śrīla Prabhupāda, for everything you have given to the world. You will forever be remembered as the one who built a spiritual home in which the entire world can reside. We remain eternally indebted to you. Haribol!
