Dear Guru Maharaja!

On this wonderful day of your appearance, we offer our humble obeisances at your lotus feet.

We are extremely pleased and happy to have met you and have the opportunity to receive this grace. Your whole life is an example for us. Spiritual activity, for the material world, is unnatural; it is contrary to its very nature. It is impossible to chant, to serve God. And only by the great mercy of our spiritual master can we make an attempt in chanting the holy name of God. By the grace of the parampara we can do service to the Lord in this world.

The most fallen man can be purified by taking shelter of a pure devotee and follow his instructions. The method of devotional service is so powerful that a pure devotee of the Lord can help people of all classes to achieve the highest perfection. All this can only be done by those who have taken shelter of Krsna.

We pray at your lotus feet to empower us with qualities of a vaisnava and protect our spiritual life from falling and grant us the opportunity to always be in the company of those who have firm faith.

Your servants,
Alex and Natalia Grutsky
