Ramya devi dasi

Dear Srila Gurudeva,

Please accept my most humble obeisances at your lotus feet. All glories to Srila Prabhupada and all glories to you.

People say that father’s love is like a mountain, and a loving father gives greater love than a mountain. It is you – the kind father who provide a path to unite the soul by rescuing it from the darkest state of ignorance. It was you – loving father who illuminated everything in front of me with the torch of knowledge. I offer my respectful obeisances unto your lotus feet.

For the spiritual progress of your daughter you have put in great effort to send a group of excellent devotees such as Harakantha devi dasi. As a loving father, you have inspired the soul to move towards realization of the self. Without you, it is impossible to move forward spiritually in this material world. I offer my respectful obeisances unto your lotus feet.

A father protects his children with love. Like a cloud puts out forest fire, you save the world from material suffering by putting out the raging fire of material existence. I offer my respectful obeisances unto your lotus feet.

For our spiritual growth your instruction is to chant, sing the holy name in kirtana, this makes us happy. Because in your heart you have tasted the sweetness of pure devotion, your determination in assisting your Guru’ s mission to spread the holy name to every corner of the world is unwavering. I offer my respectful obeisances unto your lotus feet.

You always worship Sri Radha-Krsna in the temple. Because you love Them so much in your heart, dress Them with beautiful clothes and ornaments, and distribute Their love to your children through various channels during the great festival of Krsna, I offer my respectful obeisances unto your lotus feet.

You are very close to Sri Radha and always distribute Radha-Krsna pastimes, Their infinite qualities, holy name and images in different forms. Not only do you desire to constantly appreciate Them, but you also serve Them with love by your actions. I offer my respectful obeisances unto your lotus feet.

Because of the loving father’s kindness and love we are blessed by Krsna. We cannot make progress without the kindness and love of a loving father. Therefore, it is time for me to remember and glorify you, offering my respectful obeisances unto your lotus feet .

May the guru-puja be smooth and successful to your heart’s content.Hare Krsna!

Your daughter,
Ramya devi dasi
