Dear Guru Mahārāja,

On this auspicious day of your holy appearance, I offer my respectful obeisances at your divine merciful lotus feet. All glories to Your Divine Grace. All glories to Śrīla Prabhupāda.

We thank Guru and Gaurāṅga for giving an opportunity to glorify you. Please bless us so that we can follow strictly Kṛṣṇa Conscious principles in our life. We get the inspiration from this proverb “Die before you die” from you, Guru Mahārāja. How much we try hard we are not able to give up the attachment to this body and family life. But, I know one thing that you are mercy personified, as you are always there for bestowing your causeless mercy upon fallen soul like me.

Guru Mahārāja, you are not only present in the hearts of your disciples but also the whole ISKCON family. Despite loads of pain you always rain of happiness to your children. You always listen to our doubts or queries sitting in our heart and in no waiting time give the answer.

Guru Mahārāja, You have been very merciful to me in spite of all my faults. I also have a desire to serve You - through your instructions. Guru Mahārāja kindly keep me under Your divine shelter, always.

I am trying my best to carry out all the services in Gaurāṅgadesh Yātrā with all your mercy and along with the cooperation of all our devotees. I am happy that I am able to guide them. By your mercy, our regular weekly programs are happing every Saturday evening between 7pm to 9pm and many devotees are attending. We have around 175 to 200 devotees attending regularly. All Major festivals are celebrated in a grand way. Last year Janmashtami, even though it was a working day, we had around 750 devotees attending our program and participated in various services.

On Jan 1st, 5 youth children from our yātrā took your shelter. I was really motivating for all of us. Please bless these children to become a strong soldier under your guidance and take initiation soon. During Gaura Pūrṇimā, we have 8 devotees who have completed their JPS interview and are ready for initiation from you in Śrīdhāma Māyāpur. Please bless them for their spiritual advancement.

With your blessings, my elder and younger sons are studying in Mysore and are attending the Satsanga there along with my wife. I am happy to tell you that my elder son Tejo Kṛṣṇa took shelter from you this year. Requesting your blessings for them to continue their spiritual life there and also help all the elders. My wife is helping me out in whatever possible way she can from Mysore visits Dubai twice in a year. I need your blessing to execute all my services very well.

My sincere prayers are that you should recover fully and be dancing amongst us which will give us lot of inspiration. On this auspicious occasion of your Vyāsa-Pūjā, my sincere prayers to Śrī Śrī Prahlad Narasiṁhadev, Śrī Śrī Rādhā Mādhava and Pañca-tattva to keep you protected and give you a long long life. We need your presence very badly amongst us.

Your loving son
