My dear Spiritual Master Srila Indradyumna Swami Maharaja, please accept my humble obeisances at your lotus feet. All glories to Srila Prabhupada. I am very happy to be able to write an offering to you this year. Your instructions from lectures showing me the way to home and lighting my path in life with love for God. The power of your blessing literally changed my life – last time I wrote to you that I have been very sick for many months and cannot be cured in order to continue my service. And this time I am writing to you that everything has changed for the better – thanks for your mercy.…

Dear Guru Maharaj, please accept my most humble obeisances in the blessed dust of your lotus feet! All glories to you! All glories to Srila Prabhupada! Please allow me on this auspicious day of your Vyasa Puja to have a try to offer at least a bud of my gratitude and appreciation to you. In your lecture from February 02, 2012 mentioning the poisonous spiders and cobras that inhabit Vraja you say: padaṁ padaṁ yad vipadāṁ na teṣām (SB 10.14.58) – dangers await us at every step. Even in Vrindavana Dham we cannot hide from the mouth of suffering. And yet you give us this refuge in your lectures. It is not just a sword of knowledge that cuts up all…

Dear Srila Gurudeva! Please accept my humble obeisances in the dust of your lotus feet. All glories to Srila Prabhupada!!! On this most auspicious day of Vyasa Puja, I want to express my deep gratitude to you!  The spiritual master is the representative of Krishna, therefore we worship spiritual master as Krishna himself! Thank you for not rejecting me and accepting me as a disciple. When my first teacher, Harikesa prabhu, passed away, it was not an easy period in my life. Everything began to collapse one after another, I felt like a stray dog that has no shelter. No matter what I did, no matter what efforts I made, everything flew away somewhere into the abyss. Every day…

Dear Srila Gurudeva, please accept our most humble obeisances in the dust of your lotus feet. All glory to SrilaPrabhupada, the six Gosvamis of Vrindavan, SriPancha-tattva! On this blessed day of Your appearance,  pleaseaccept our humble words of gratitude and respect! For us, there is no person in the world more important than You, and there are no more sacred ties than the ties that bind a spiritual master and a disciple.  Srila Raghunatha das Goswami in Sri Mukta-charita writes: hegurogyana-da dina-bandho svananda-datahkarunaika-sindho Vrindavanasinahitavatara prasidaradha-pranaya-prachara O spiritual master, O giver of divine wisdom, O friend of the fallen. You give bliss and you are the only ocean of mercy. Although you…

Dear Gurudev! Please accept my humble obeisances in the dust of your lotus feet. All glory to Srila Prabhupada. On this wonderful day of Vyasa-Puja, I would like to express my infinite gratitude to you. There are no words in the whole world that can fully describe your wonderful qualities, and yet I hope that my humble attempt will bring you a little satisfaction. For your pleasure, I offer poeme, a manifestation of your mercy: 1. Oh, Gurudev, who gives shelter at his lotus feet. I fell deeply into this ocean of material misery, vainly seeking happiness in material wealth and false prestige . It’s only thanks to you that I’ve…

Hare Krishna! Accept my bow, my dear spiritual master. Glory to Guru and Gauranga. All glory to SrilaPrabhupada. Thank you so much for coming for me in this incarnation. I want to share with you one dream in which I dreamed of devotees, Chaitanya Chandra CharanPrabhu, Vaishnava pranaPrabhu. Chaitanya Chandra CharanPrabhu said only two words, but these two words still warm my soul: “Take care of the food.” Then in His book “The Evolution of Consciousness” I read that food for the spiritual soul is love for God. Without japayajna, Krishna katha, praises and prayers for the glory of Lord Sri Krishna, everything would have faded, the whole sadhana bhaktiwould have turned…

My dear beloved spiritual teacher Srila Gurudev! Please accept my humble bows in the dust of your Lotus Feet! All Glories to Srila Prabhupada! From my heart I sincerely congratulate You on your Birthday! May Lord Krishna grant you good health, a long and happy life filled with the happiness of serving the Lord and Srila Prabhupada, and the happiness of seeing the Bhakti vine grow and blossom in the hearts of your disciples! The blazing fire of Kali-yuga is now raging all over the world and trying to burn people’s hearts with material hatred so that they forget Krishna. But despite our heaviest human karma, every lecture you give, every kirtan you give, it is…

Dear Srila Gurudev, please accept my respectful obeisances!All glories to Srila Prabhupada!All glories to you!On this day of your Vyasa Puja, I want to thank you for all the mercy you are giving me. Thanks to you, I am trying to get out of this material world, which is full of illusions. Thanks to you, Krishna has become for me not someone far away, but a close friend who will never leave. I once heard that a spiritual master is someone who opens and reveals Krishna to us. And at that moment I became convinced that no one else reveals Krishna to me the way you do.I also want to express my gratitude…
