From Abhisara Das – Germany
Dear Srila Gurudeva! Please accept my obeisances! All glories to Srila Prabhupada and all the assembled devotees.
On this day of your radiant appearance, let me wish you health, long life and deep spiritual achievements. Which you then so generously share with your students and well-wishers. Your love and willingness to give your all to devotees is reminiscent of the love and mood of your great spiritual master, His Divine Grace Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupada.
I have heard congratulations from other ISKCON students and teachers that the student really has nothing to offer but his life.
The spiritual master draws his power from the ocean of mercy of Lord Nityananda himself and is an example of giving his own life to the mission of his spiritual master. Indeed, out of love for him and for Krishna, you perform your incredible feats throughout your life.
On this wonderful day, I want to ask you for mercy for all your students and well-wishers, at least for a little bit to surrender to you as you did for your spiritual teacher.
Thank you so much for giving us all such an incredible transcendental service as the Polish Tour. It becomes even more valuable from your reflections and revelations that you describe in the transcendental diary of an itinerant preacher. In which they teach us to see Lord Krishna in everyday little things.
And your gift in the form of a series of lectures on Vrindavan helps to cleanse the heart of anarthas and become a little closer to the transcendental reality.
I am very happy that the relationship between a disciple and a spiritual master is eternal. This gives me hope to one day be with you in the spiritual world and continue to serve your lotus feet there forever!Trying to become your servant, Abhisara dasi.
