From Bh. Imre Nagy

Dear Gurudeva,
Please accept my obeisances!
All glories to Srīla Prabhupāda!
On the path of devotional service we meet several challenges. I continue to cook at Food for Life Budapest. I start my service at dawn, I try to be attentive to everything, cook the right amount, transfer nicely, order the bhoga, store it and so on. It’s very tiring. My joints are aching, my back and wrists hurt. I meet all kinds of pain and difficulty, just like other devotees do also.
What could I possibly offer you in this state, I’m pondering. I came to the conclusion, that you’re still the one who offers everything to me. You constantly help me. At dawn I listen to your bhajans and kirtans which enthuse me, singing the maha-mantra alongside you. Your words echo in my head, the happiness of associating with you fills me. I thank you. Whenever I think about the kind of service you offer to your spiritual master, my own difficulties become lighter. I thank you. You make my service easier, and you enthuse me.
I can only offer my gratitude to you.
Your servant,
Bh. Imre Nagy
