Venerable Guru Maharaja, Hare Krsna.
Please accept my humble obeisances at Your divine lotus feet. All glories to Srila Prabhupada. All glories to Your Divine Grace.
Guru Maharaja, as time passes, I am gradually able to appreciate the good fortune that Lord Krsna has bestowed on me by giving me the opportunity to be connected to our glorious disciplic succession through You. Srila Prabhuapada gave us Krsna consciousness in a very pure way and as his true representative, You are also giving us messages of pure devotional service in a similarly pure way. As Srila Rupa Gosvami says in Bhakti-rasamrta-sindhu, it is sudurlabha. It is indeed causeless mercy. Thank You very much.
Guru Maharaja, on this day, I feel very happy to have the opportunity to meditate on some of Your transcendental qualities. Guru Maharaja, I feel myself very fortunate to see You as an example of complete dedication and commitment to Your spiritual master, Srila Prabhupada. You have dedicated everything in service to Srila Prabhupada. You are always very careful to utilize Your time in service to Srila Prabhupada.
Guru Maharaja, Your continuous emphasis on quality chanting, hearing, and studying Srila Prabhupada’s books has helped me so much in continuing Krsna consciousness with enthusiasm.
Guru Maharaja, on this day, I also want to thank You for blessing me with the association of His Grace Jagadananda Prabhu, Her Grace Ananda Vrndavana Mataji and Indore devotees. Their association has nourished our Krsna consciousness and protected us from slipping away from Krsna consciousness. Their support in our facing challenges is like a cool breeze during a hot summer.
Guru Maharaja, on this day, I beg for Your blessings so that I may sincerely follow Your instructions. Please forgive my mistakes, knowingly and unknowingly-committed offences. Thank You very much for Your loving shelter.
Aspiring to be a servant of Your servants,
Pradyumna dasa
