Respected Guru Maharaja,

Please accept my humble obeisance. All glories to Srila Prabhupada.

First of all, I would like to thank you for accepting an insignificant soul like me under the shelter of your lotus feet. I am writing this offering on the auspicious day of your appearance for my purification. Your transcendental qualities of calmness, compassion, dedication and faith inspires me to move ahead in the chosen spiritual path.

During this pandemic, many of the devotees are not able to visit temple and involve in spiritual activities satsanga. Your frequent lectures during these testing times are great source of inspiration to all devotees which will help us to advance in our spiritual growth. This shows your love, compassion and selfless service towards the devotees. Because of your unparalleled compassion, you go through many hardships and inconveniences to enable devotees to relish the transcendental joy of pure krsna-bhakti. Through your lectures, devotees are able to feel your benevolence, graciousness and guru-bhakti.

Maharaja, your teachings inspire us to develop relationship with Supreme Personality of Godhead Krsna and serve Him only. On this auspicious occasion, I beg at your lotus feet that I shall experience a paradigm shift in my conscious which will help me to elevate in my spiritual path.

Thank you Maharaja. Hare Krsna.

Your servant, 

Balai devi dasi.
