81st Vyāsa-pūjā of my beloved spiritual master, His Holiness Gopal Krishna Goswami Maharaj

On the most auspicious occasion of the 81st Vyāsa-pūjā of my beloved spiritual master, His Holiness Gopal Krishna Goswami Maharaj, my heart is overflowing with gratitude. Gurudev has always showered his causeless mercy and blessings upon me and my family, guiding us through the path of Kṛṣṇa consciousness. His presence and instructions have been like a lamp in the darkness, giving direction, strength, and hope in every situation.

To be in the association of such a pure Vaiṣṇava personality is the greatest fortune of my life. Maharaj’s tireless service to Śrīla Prabhupāda’s mission, his steadfast faith, and his deep compassion for all living beings continue to inspire thousands of devotees worldwide. On this sacred day, devotees, sādhus, and Vaiṣṇava assemblies gathered together, and their divine association completely rejuvenated my bhakti-latā-bīja, the creeper of devotion within my heart.

I pray that I may always remain faithful to the instructions of my Gurudev, never deviating from the path he has so mercifully shown me. May I serve him with sincerity, humility, and devotion, so that my life may become an offering at his lotus feet.

Your servant,

Prashant Mukund Das
