Divyambara devi dasi

om ajnana-timirandhasya jnananjana salakaya
caksur unmilitam yena tasmai sri gurave namah

nama om visnu-padaya krsna-presthaya bhu-tale
srimate romapada-svamin iti namine

mukam karoti vacalam pangum langhayate girim
yat-krpa tam aham vande sri gurum dina-taranam

Respected and dear Guru Maharaja,

Please accept my humble obeisances at the dust of your Divine Lotus feet. All glories to Your Divine Grace, all glories to Srila Prabhupada.

Hare Krsna Guru Maharaja! As I begin to write your Vyasa-puja offering this year, I’m feeling indebted for your causeless mercy upon me that you have been showering for the past so many years.

Several years ago, while answering my question, you told me that everything is in the association of devotees.

By your causeless mercy alone, I’m able to understand a bit the value of association of devotees. This year I had the fortune of hearing from His Grace Bhurijana Prabhu, His Holiness Indradyumna Svami Maharaja, His Grace Dina-bandhu Prabhu, and His Grace Hari Sauri Prabhu during their visit to ISKCON Hyderabad. By the mercy of the devotees, namely His Grace Udayananda Prabhu, Sucarita Mataji, Her Grace Sandha Mataji, her Prabhu and son, my mother and I were able to go to Tirupati yatra last month in July and get darsana of Tirumala Balaji. Also I was able to go to Bidar for Lord Nrsimha’s darsana in a cave with a group led by Matajis. In a few days, another yatra to Ahobilam is organized by His Grace Udayananda Prabhu and I have been included in that.

May you please bless me that I follow your instructions for your pleasure especially when life at times is very, very overwhelming and testing. May you please forgive my offenses.

Thank you so much Guru Maharaja for everything that you have given me.

Your insignificant disciple,
Divyambara devi dasi
