Respected Guru Maharaja,

Hare Krsna!

Please accept my humble obeisances at your lotus feet. All glories to Srila Prabhupada. All glories to Your Divine Grace.

It is indeed a great fortune to have this opportunity to glorify you on this auspicious occasion of your Vyasa-puja celebration. This humble attempt though inadequate would surely purify my being.

Guru Maharaja, you have deeply imbibed the teachings of Srila Prabhupada and the great acaryas in the disciplic succession. Out of your compassion for the unfortunate fallen souls, struggling with their mind and senses, you share these extremely valuable jewels through your recorded lectures. This is indeed how I receive the desire and strength to move forward on the path of Krsna consciousness.

Though struggling in this material world, thrown around endlessly by the tossing waves, fearful and not knowing what to do, I have been made fortunate by your association and the worldwide association of devotees created by Srila Prabhupada. Now being part of this association, there is hope for me to make the most of this human form of life.

Because of your mercy, I have been awarded regular association of devotees and the loving and tolerant guidance from Jagadananda Prabhuji and Ananda Vrndavana Mataji. This is how you are nurturing the seed of devotion which you have planted in my heart. Due to this guidance and association, I am developing the strength to honestly accept the existing anarthas in my heart and strive sincerely for achieving pure devotional service.

Guru Maharaja, I seek your continued blessings to follow the teachings from my heart and sincerely apply them in my life.

Your servant,

Navakisora dasa
