Dear Guru Maharaj, please accept my restorative Aglosur Prabhupada. All glory Divine Grace. The Acharya who teaches the example this morning. This is the day when I wrote the offering the Simaj Bhagavatan class. His Holiness Banam Maharaj is explaining the glories of Vedic literature and how Shrimad Bhagavam is the conclusion of all this. And Bhakti Yoga is the supreme of all, the most practical, especially for this age. I was feeling so fortunate to have in common contact with this process. This is only possible by the mercy of Patita Pavan, Avatar Lord Chichin Mahaprabhu. The glories of Chaitanya Mahaprabhu were broadcasted all over the world by His Divine grace AC Bhaktavaram Sam Srila Prabhupada. Now Sila Guru Maharaj, you are tirelessly distributing the special mercy of London Prabhu to everyone. Without any hesitation you became a perfect disciple of Srila Prabhupada. I am trying to follow the instructions you have received from him which are many in number. Srila Prabhupada has given so many intercessions to you and you are slowly fulfilling all these. One of them being to make 50,000 disciples. And you have very successfully fulfilled that.
And even reaching and in sackinghood you made 50,000 disciples and have very successfully fulfilled it and that you've been reaching out to many more and you are instructing your disciples to become spiritual masters so that you can guide them. You have perfectly understood the mood of Srila Prabhupada and now increasing the concept of million Acharyas. In one of your lecture you mentioned that each one can make at least 10 disciples, which is not a big task. In order to become an Acharya one has to become. One has to be conversant with the scriptures like Srimad Bhagavatam and Simad Bhagavad Gitam. You are encouraging everyone to study these books to obtain degrees like Bhakti Vaibhavam Bhakti Vedanta. You are personally setting an example by studying, giving exams and obtain the degrees in the higher distinction. Thus you are a perfect Acharya who teaches by example. Even for those who are very busy with the management and not able to spend time with MI or vhe you have you obtained special permission of summative exams and thus encouraging everyone to go through this. And I'm one such example. I was very slack in my recent. I was very slack and in my Recent visit you encouraged me to do only Only because of your determination to complete Bhakti Vaibhavam in two days before I left Mayapur. Thank you so much. Another example is you increase. I appreciate everyone in their services. Like recently the top Nasringa wing opening, the students of International school performed a drama of Nasing Dev and you sat through the whole drama and watched it. Just to encourage them in their efforts, the age of Kali performed Bhakti Margo Swami and his team at the parish Samadhi Mandir. Just to encourage the participants, we went and participated in the Kirtan Mela. Again to encourage the Kirtanis, we went to give blessings to a newly wedded couple. All these to encourage and bless the devotees. All these you did in spite of your health challenges and thus showing us that we cannot find any excuses to not to perform our devotional service to S. Prabhupada. This mission. You have participated in the 150th anniversary Srila Bhaktakur and explained to all the assembled devotees that how S Prabhupada instructed you to unite all the Saraswati G branches and preach the glory Sara Mahaprabhu in a unified way. You have participated in the 20th anniversary of Panama and watch the whole Abhishek by sitting on the left hand side of the altar Again. We did this to show an example for us and how we should conduct ourselves. Now you've taken up the service of installing the lotus footprints Mahaprabhu at all the places visited. Beloved Bakshan Siddh Thakur started this project and left some work. And now you are trying to complete it by installing at the remaining places. Tirelessly working on this project you have a mission to install at the places in the Vrijapurmi. This project is not easy as there are so many hurdles to cross. But you are doing with your dedicated team and servants with lots of determination. You say that Sri Mayapur is the home of the Gavadaya Vaishnavas and you reside in Sri Mayapuram and you honor all the visiting GBC members by giving them a gift bag each year. Again showing an example of the Darthi Trigunati. Guru Maharaj, what can I say of my good fortune? I have no words express and my only desire is to. Yeah. To stay at your lotus feet and serve even life after life. So my request to you on this most auspicious day is to please do not push me away from a lotus feet and let me develop the attachment to follow your instructions and do that. I need your mercy and strength. I know very well I don't have the qualification and I still am aspiring for that like a dwarf trying to reach the moon. But I also know that you are very merciful and thus I'm making the request. Significant Servant Sitaram Lakshmandas Jayas came.
