Dear Gurudev, Happy Vyas PujaI cannot express by words how indebted I am to you. You have inspired me in so many ways. My life completely changed for the better. The day you gave me shelter in Sri Mayapur International School was the best day of my life. When I listen to your lectures, I feel like I can chant my rounds properly. (Even though I still struggle) I want to be around you and follow your instructions. I cannot wait to see you in person in Sadhusanga.Thank you so much.Your servant, Radhika Khare
