Venerable Guru Maharaja, Hare Krsna!

Please accept our humble obeisance’s at Your divine lotus feet. All glories to Srila Prabhupada. All glories to Your divine grace.

Guru Maharaja, recently His Grace Jagadananda Prabhu has engaged me in the service of overseeing translation of Your Vyasa-puja offerings into Hindi. This service has given me an opportunity to have a glimpse of Your very deep gratitude, love, surrender and dedication to Your spiritual master, Srila Prabhupada. Srila Prabhupada’s personal dedication and surrender to his spiritual master Srila Bhaktisiddhanta Saraswati Thakura was exemplary. He had said that He has no qualifications except that He never deviated even an inch from the instructions of His spiritual master. Guru Maharaja, You have continued this legacy and we are very fortunate to witness it and have You as our spiritual master.

Guru Maharaja, when I hear about the qualities of great devotees and service unto them is of utmost important to attain the mercy of Lord Krsna and progress in one’s spiritual life, it always reminds me of You. I wonder how much mercy Lord Krsna has bestowed on me by giving me the benediction of Your loving shelter. Guru Maharaja, I am an utterly unqualified disciple yet even a slight realization of Your glories fills my heart with great joy and happiness. I beg at Your lotus feet again and again to have a heart and intelligence to understand Your transcendental glories.

Guru Maharaja, Krsna consciousness has enriched my life beyond what I could have dreamt of, so much pure transcendental knowledge about aspect of our life, association of wonderful devotees, holy name, transcendental books, holy dhama, but without You I would not have access to any of them.

Thank You very much, Guru Maharaja.

Aspiring to be servant of Your servants,
Pradyumna dasa
