Dear and respected Guru Maharaja,

Please accept our most humble and respectful obeisances unto the dust of your lotus feet. All glories to Your Divine Grace! All glories to Srila Prabhupada!

Guru Maharaja, we have no qualification to glorify and appreciate you. We beg to write a few words for our own purification on this most auspicious day of your Vyasa-puja.

Guru Maharaja, because of your blessings and guidance we are able to continue in our Krsna consciousness. Despite our inabilities and unsteadiness, you are purifying us with your transcendental arrangements to holy places such as Vrndavana/Govardhana Hill and most recently in following Lord Caitanya’s footsteps to South India.

We are greatly indebted; in spite of your extremely demanding schedule you continue to plan Gita Nagari retreats. These retreats help us appreciate devotee association and loving relationships. We are able to witness the immense love that your disciples have for you. It is all due to the care and attention that you have extended.

We are seeking your blessings for our spiritual strength to remain in the association of loving devotees, study Srila Prabhupada’s books, ardently hear from pure devotees, and chant the holy names of the Lord. We pray to our Lordships Sri Sri Nitai Caitanyacandra to always keep you protected so we may continue to get your constant association.

Kindly forgive our offenses and short comings.

Your aspiring servants,
Bhakta Gopaul and Rukmini Priya devi dasi
