2014 Vyasa Puja Offering

<big>Dear Gurumaharaja,
Please accept my humble obeisances. All glories to Srila Prabhupada. </big>

<big>Congratulations with your Vyasa Puja. It is the very first offering i write to you, after you've shown me your kindness by accepting me on board the ISKCON boat last year as my diksa guru. The mystery of our relationship eludes me still, although i try to understand it. In my foolishness, i looked at you in a material way, i have tried to use you for material gain and i have surely shown you disrespect, all for which i am sorry and offer my apologies. </big>

<big>You mentioned Srila Prabhupada's words that no disciple can ever take all of his Guru's instructions. I am aware of that. I like hearing your classes, they help me feel close to you. Also, i appreciate your way of presenting spiritual life, and how to apply it into my dense darkness. Many new challenges will arise, but i am confident that all will work out.  You certainly are able to shed the Light of the Bhagavata on society's workings and my personal sadhana, and i understand i have my life to perfect this. So i offer you my gratitude. I cherish your comment in this regard, "You already have my mercy, now you have to take it."</big>

<big>Your fortunate disciple,
Raghava Pandita dasa</big>
 

<big>PS. On days like this i miss being in my Godfamily's association. Your suggestion for visiting Spain certainly was visionary for establishing relationships there. </big>

<big>                HpS - Jaya! RpD.  So nice to hear from you. You can see we are drowning in this South American tour. Just be alert, alert, alert for the chances to preach thatn Krsna sends to you.</big>

<big>The Squeaky Wheel Gets the Grease!</big>

Dear Spiritual Master,

Please accept my humble obeisances,

All glories to Srila Prabhupada, all glories to your service to Srila Prabhupada!

This special day of your auspicious appearance is an opportunity to express my gratitude to you. I appreciate so much your example, your steadiness, and your commitment to serve the mission of your spiritual master, Srila Prabhupada. I am grateful because you accept the trouble to take care of ordinary people like me who are full of problems and attachments. This is certainly the proof that the spiritual master is the representative of Krsna, as Krsna is merciful and give shelter to all soul that approach Him. You as well gave me an opportunity to make part of this family, to feel part of this movement, and to feel the shelter and mercy, with no discrimination, of the Lord.

It is certainly very rare to find such genuine movement, and very fortunate to get in touch with a genuine sincere devotee as you are, and even more astonishing that such devotee accept you as his disciple. I have no doubt of your are a bonafide teacher that can enlighten me in regard to the Supreme destination back to Krsna, as you humbly follow  the parampara system. You are a true follower of your spiritual master, and mercifully you share your devotion with us to inspire us and help us to also surrender and devote ourselves to Krsna. Such an unselfish and pure endeavor melts my heart, binds me and inspires me to try to become your servant. Thank you so much for all the personal troubles you accept in order to help us, in a sincere attempts to help us to come back to Krsna. You do all this only by the impetus of serving and pleasing Guru and Krsna. I can see that clearly.

I pray I can take more and more seriously the chance I got, that is unique, and that can save me from all miseries. Moreover, it can give me the transcendental gift of reviving my eternal relationship with God, Krsna. This path back to Krsna is only possible under your guidance and shelter. Otherwise, why Krsna would accept me? By following your instructions, by serving without vanity, by inquiring sincerely and submissively, by trying my best to please you. I am like a foolish child, that thought she knew many things, but now understands its poor situation. It is my desire to grow as Krsna's servant under your guidance and shelter. I will use whatever intelligence and sincerity is in my hearts to improve in this path, as there nothing more valuable in my life. I wish to increase my faith in you, in Krsna the Personality of Godhead and in the holy names, as this is my only real opportunity to surrender fully my heart and it is the price to advance. I feel now as wet wood that fire can hardly burn. Although I am a very insignificant person, Krsna has taken me under His shelter, has given me all I need to progress, but I remain attached to so many things. At least I see more clearly my condition, and I don't think I am very "good". So now I wish to humbly progress in this path in which you are my guide and shelter.

Your insignificant servant, Nitya Kisori devi dasi

The photos are from a little altar I did in this aupicious day to remember you. It is small thing because I am the only disciple here, and almost all my friends are at home for Christmas. It is a nice opportunity to have an introspective day.

                                 HpS - AGTSP. So, nice to hear from you from the lands of snow and ice. Please send us news of your Yatra there!!!

Dear Hanumatpresaka Maharaja,
please accept my respectful obeisances,
all glories, all glories to Srila Prabhupada!
All glories to you in your auspicious appearance day!


I'd like to say thank you again for your practical teachings and shared realizations in the path of bhakti yoga.


An old fable (see the link below) came into my mind wherein there is a big-big carrot and granpa wants to pull it out but he is unsuccessful. Therefore grandma joins and they try together and later the daughter and the dog and the cat and finally the mouse... so they made their so called parampara like this.
Fortunately we have a better and not mundane guru parampara and we have more ability than a carrot.
Yes, i know that this example is not perfect, not by a long chalk. But i can say please look after me and pull me out from mud.

 

Thank you for your instructions on chanting Hare Krsna and all the other things!


Hare Krsna,
your servant:
