From Rasika Candra das, Gopi Ramana devi dasi- Australia, Melbourne

Dear Guru Maharaj,
Please accept our humble obeisance’s at your lotus feet. All glories to Srila Prabhupada.
It is our good fortune to participate on this auspicious occasion and motivate ourselves to make spiritual progress.
Lord Krishna says in BG 18.68 and 18.69 that “For one who explains the supreme secret to the devotees, devotional service is guaranteed, and at the end he will come back to Me. There is no servant in this world more dear to Me than he, nor will there ever be one more dear.”
By looking at your life, we feel that you are very dear to Lord Krishna as year after year, you have been spreading the Lord’s glories and many and many souls have been benefited & delivered.
Over the last 1 year I realised the importance of 2 verses thru your talks:
First one is:
om ajnana-timirandhasya jnananjana-salakaya
cakshur unmilitam yena tasmai sri-gurave namah
I offer my respectful obeisance’s unto my spiritual master, who has opened my eyes, which were blinded by the darkness of ignorance, with the torchlight of knowledge.
Until now we were only reading this as a prayer but now with your webinars, we can realise it. Over last 1 year, you have given 100’s of talks on Vrindavana and Vaisnava Acharyas. Due to this we can understand the importance of Holy dhama thru the knowledge that you are giving weekly and opened the windows to the spiritual world.
It is like the soldiers in the army need to train themselves and keep themselves for the war, your webinars are training us for the war against Maya. Becoz people will usually go back to maya’s lap as soon as pandemic is over, we have to be ready and fit to preach to them.
Second one is:
sri-caitanya-mano-’bhishtam sthapitam yena bhu-tale
svayam rupah kada mahyam dadati sva-padantikam
When will Srila Rupa Gosvami Prabhupada, who has established within this material world the mission to fulfill the desire of Lord Caitanya, give me shelter under his lotus feet?
I think thru your webinars, you are fulfilling the desire of Lord Chaitanya. In this current age people are addicted to their electronic devices and this is the best way to do that. The talks are going to various types of people and atleast they are knowing about what is the difference between Matter & spirit.
In one of your diary, you mentioned “One cannot become a pure devotee unless one becomes a pure devotee of the spiritual master. yasya prasādād bhagavat-prasādo – First one must establish a proper relationship with my guru before developing the relationship with Krsna. A sincere disciple has the same devotion for his spiritual master that he has for the Lord”.
Pl bless us on this occasion that we remember & practice this instruction without fail.
Inspite of many inconveniences you are continuing to fulfill the mission of your spiritual master and making the prediction of Sri Chaitanya Mahaprabhu come true. You are already empowered by your spiritual master because you have been following his instructions to the heart. But with all the anarthas in our heart we are unable to do that.
Therefore, on this most auspicious occasion of your Vyasa-puja, I am falling at your lotus feet and begging for the mercy to develop taste for your service, Preaching & the Holy Name. Let me be of some help in your great mission of spreading Krsna consciousness to every home and every heart.
Thank you very much & your insignificant servants
