From Parvati devi dasi – Australia, New Gowardhana

Dear Srila Gurudeva, please accept my humble obeisances. All glories to your dearest Srila Prabhupada.
Glorification of the Spiritual Master is essential for the spiritual growth of disciple. Lord Krishna Himself makes the statement in Adi Purana addressing Arjuna: “My dear Partha, one who claims to be My devotees is not My devotee. But only one who sincere aspiring to be a devotee of My devotee is actually My devotee.”
When sincere disciple comes in contact with potent spiritual master – miracles happen. Since Prahlada Maharaja took the instructions of Narada Muni with full heart-Lord Nrisimhadeva appeared. One pure devotee Sukadeva Goswami and receptive disciple Parikshit Maharaja – Srimad Bhagavatam emerged. Similarly Radha-Ramana appeared from saligrama because Gopala Bhatta Goswami was sincere and receptive disciple of Prabhodananda Sarasvati Thakura.
Srila Prabhupada took the statement of Srila Bhaktisiddhanta Sarasvati Thakura to preach in English message of Krishna Consciousness in the West as life and soul – and spiritual explosion happened. Miracles are created when bonafide Spiritual Master and fully spiritually receptive disciple meet. Sad-guru is rare, no doubt, but sad-sisya is even more rare.
Dear Srila Gurudeva, you are fully surrendered your life following the instructions of Srila Prabhupada, you are the great example of this rare sad-sisya, sincere and receptive disciple. And as a result – so many miracles happened. What kind of miracles?
Miracle of changing of the heart of living entities who come in contact with you spreading transcendental message to revive the dormant love in the hearts of all living beings.
I greatly admire and respect your deep and vast knowledge of Vedic scriptures and what is most important your ability to communicate complex spiritual concepts in a simple and accessible way. This is prema-nama samkirtana. As Srimati Radharani is svarupa – sakti of Krishna, so Krishna-katha is svarupa-sakti of Krishna Nama.
One of the main symptoms of devotional surrender is manifestation of fearlessnes, abhaya. As Prahlada Maharaja was completely fearless being fully focused on the Lord, so you are. Bold, tiredless and determined in your preaching strategies being focused on desire to please Srila Prabhupada. I am just praying to be granted the opportunity to join your bold, adventurous preaching projects as much as possible.
Aspiring to be humble, insignificant, menial servant at your feet. Hope to develop through my life understanding that my only identity is” Gurudas ei Mora paricar”.
