Dear Guru Maharaja,

Hare Krsna! Please accept my sastanga dandavat pranams at your most merciful lotus feet. All glories to Srila Prabhupada. Please accept me and bless me to be a wise and deserving disciple at your lotus feet.

Thanks so much Maharaja for being there for us always – providing timely advice and guidance for both spiritual and material related confusions caused in our daily life. Thank you for showing personal care to disciples like us by introducing to right people trained by you.

You have patiently helped me sharing your seminars when my mind was agitated with negative emotions – which gave me immediate relief, I will ever be grateful for your mercy Maharaja, for helping this fallen conditioned soul in a timely manner. Listening to your lectures and seminars on Srimad-Bhagavatam, which you have shared in a very structured manner, helps a simple person like me understand and develop passion to read Srimad-Bhagavatam. I have shared it with other devotees who had similar confusions raised and perplexed mentality – they also thanked you from bottom of their heart as your teachings are very helpful in our daily life.

I am excited and delighted to meet you in person for the first time in my life. I am looking forward to do some seva at your lotus feet to please Lord Krsna in your form Maharaja. I am also equally excited to come with you to Sri Vrndavana-dhama! I feel myself fortunate enough to get this opportunity – looking forward eagerly to spend some time in your service along with other respectful Vaisnava devotees who are coming with us.

Maharaja, as your disciple, I would like to maintain good relationship with everyone who I come across and try to see Krsna in everyone. I am trying my best to help or do service to people who are in need of the name of Krsna. Bless me so that I get involved and continue to serve people in need and get involved more in serving the ISKCON temple in Singapore (GRS). Currently, they have accepted me to do breakfast / lunch for Sri Jagannatha on one of the Saturdays in a month.

I hope that with Lord Krsna’s loving grace and under your guidance, I can get initiated soon. I am also praying eagerly to see you in person to get your blessings Maharaja. My husband also is trying to finish his IDC. I also wish my children join us soon, try to follow ISKCON, understand their real purpose as humans in this world, and be part of spreading Krsna consciousness – the mission of Srila Prabhupada.

Praying to Lord Krsna for your good health always and praying to Srila Prabhupada’s mercy that I should be of some service to you in the near future.

With koti-koti pranams at your lotus feet,
Mrs. Padmasini Srivathsan
