Offerings of Love

Dear Srila Prabhupada

All Glories to you & Sri Gauranga,

Please accept my humble obeisances.

On your Vyasapuja day, it’s a pleasure to share some words. we are always grateful to you for saving us from this material world and giving your teachings in the form of audio and writings to enlighten us, but I am so unfortunate to develop a love for reading and hearing.

Very first time when I saw your picture I thought you are also the same as other babas but after meeting with devotees then I realized the mistake done towards you and feeling very much sorry for that.

Thank you Srila Prabhupad for saving all of us and Please bless us that we will develop the love for Krishna and participate in all preaching activities with more and more enthusiasm for your pleasure.

Dear prabhupad please accept my humble obeisances

You have made the world’s most biggest movement changing millions of lives towords krishna from ignorance and Im one of those lives.You’ve taken so much effort ,so much hard work and so much of burden. As I heard your story i had tears in my eyes, to hear how much you’ve done for us.

And now I dont have fear, that something wrong would happen in my life, because you have already given the detailed map and essentials that will never get exhausted, in my journey to Lord Krishna.

Your purport for Bhagavad gita and Bhagavatam are the map and your books and devotees is the essentials, now what fear should I have!!! I also have the interest to preach and read all of your book’s please help and bless me

Please accept this small token of love. Nobody in this matirial world will ever be able to thank you enough for how much you have done for us.

Thank you srila prabhupada!!!

Dear Gurudev,

Please accept my humble obeisance to your lotus feet.

On this auspicious day of your appearance as we offer vyasa puja to you, I offer my humble obeisance to you. All glories to you and Gaur Nitai.

Please accept my sincere gratefulness to you for having paved the way for Krishna consciousness journey for millions of fallen souls like me.

Even while you quit the body from this material world, the seeds of devotion that you planted, are growing up as great spiritual masters in ISKCON, and helping in liberation of souls trapped in this kaliyuga dominated by maya.

I was fortunate to receive mercy from so many of your sincere disciples, especially HG Acyuta Arjunsakha Das, who literally picked me out of anartha and brought me in the company of highest class of people, the devotees of Lord Krishna.

Journey of Krishna consciousness seems difficult after so many years of conditioning in this material world. Sometimes feels like too uphill a task, and almost frustrating to see very less progress. Then I see most fallen people getting liberated by you in your documentary and get an assurance that someday I’ll be able to train my mind to quit material pursuits and surrender this life to Krishna completely.

As I remember you with gratefulness on this auspicious day, I pray to Lod Krishna to bless you with shelter in his lotus feet, and beg you for mercy towards me as I struggle to follow your path.

Want to reassure you that your disciples have followed your path so well after you quit the body, and are helping the fallen souls like me through your preaching, books and the ways you had taught for preaching.

Now that I have discovered the treasure of your books, lectures and disciples, it seems impossible that I could ever leave the path of Krishna consciousness in the company of ISKCON devotees.

I beg forgiveness for all the mistakes I have committed in life so far. Sometimes I can feel you scolding me every time I make a mistake.

I beg your mercy to forgive me and be happy with me in spite of all my sins, based on my eagerness to overcome all anarthas and to follow the path of Krishna consciousness.

As I closely interact with so many devotees, I beg you to save me from annoying any pure devotee and getting Vaishnava aparadh.

I beg you to keep me in your shelter as part of this home called ISKCON that you have constructed for suffering souls, and bless me with association of devotees so that I could progress further.

My heartfelt apologies and thanks to you, Gurudev.

Dear Prabhupadaji,

Kindly accept my deep regards and heartfelt thanks for Iskcon and its teachings. Had you not invested your learnings to bring this message to us we would have continued to suffer in all respects especially thinking one life to live and go.

Your teachings, the organization and devotees have made this materialistic journey little easy to get through. This journey is endless. But hope to cross this materialistic ocean with your and other devotees guidance and keep chanting the name of the Lord.

Hare Krishna.

My biggest gratitude towards prabhupad is the amazing knowledge Bank he created for the common people like me.

His books, and the explanation is so beautiful and relatable that each day when I read Prabhupada lectures, I feel more and more blessed

He has given an amazing boon to humanity via the knowledge he shared with us in the form of his books.

And my most humble and biggest gratitude towards lord Krishna is to always bless me, take me out of all suffering and making me feel a special and loved child of Lord Krishna.

I have innumerable occasions in life where I felt there was a protective cover around me and some invisible power protected me always.

That power is the divine blessing of Lord Krishna

Hare Krishna prabhuji!

Please accept my humble obeisances on the vyasa puja day!

All I can say is, we cannot thank you enough to show fallen souls like us the path to Krishna consciousness.

We being so involved into our material life, never knew what Krishna Consciousness means. You have shown us the path to this, to understand true meaning of life and what benefits serving into the lotus feet of Krishna brings into our lives .

As said by H.H.Jayapataka Swami Maharaj: “ Yadi Prabhupāda na hoita tabe kei haita “

Hari bol!

All glories to Srila Prabhupada!

Being best of atheists, I had no meaning of life until your devotees stood up in front of me being the instrument of highest mercy that calls for transformation of heart. Please bless me, so that I can serve to the best of my ability to being worthy of your love and mercy. Please let me remain under your shelter eternally even if I don’t deserve it. You unworthy servant,

Dear Srila Prabhupada,

Please accept my most humble obeisances.

I am a really insignificant servant to glorify you Prabhupada but for my purification I would like to say something in your glorification.

I am highly indebted to you Srila Prabhupada for giving us such a valuable gift of Krishna Consciousness. I could not imagine my life without Krishna Consciousness now and this happened because of you Srila Prabhupada.

I thank Srila Bhakti Siddhanta Saraswati Prabhupada for giving you instruction to spread the message of Lord Chaitanya to the west. Also thankful to your friend who pushed you to meet Srila Bhakti Siddhanta Saraswati Thakur. Because of him you met your Guru Maharaja and meditated on his instruction throughout your life and presented Lord’s message worldwide.

Srila Prabhupada you sacrificed so much in your life for fallen souls like me. You wrote so many books waking up even at 1.00 AM in night and presented the real and true philosophy of Krishna Consciousness. But I am very unfortunate Prabhupada and have so many anarthas that I don’t have any taste for reading such valuable gifts you gave us.

In one of your lectures I heard Srila Prabhupada mention that you are not able to distribute prasadam in initial days but chanting of Hare Krishna mahamantra could make devotees. This gives me a lot of inspiration and increases my faith in the holy name. In this pandemic time also we can spread Krishna Consciousness by sincerely chanting holy names and doing our sadhana.

Srila Prabhupada you also said that this movement can be accepted by anyone by grace of lord Chaitanya, we just need to do our endeavour and Krishna will be pleased with that.

On this special occasion I beg from you Srila Prabhupada for your causeless mercy so that I can get some taste to read your books and become a menial servant to repeat your instructions.

Also Srila Prabhupada please bestow your mercy so that I am able to take shelter under your lotus feet in association with your beloved disciple and fully surrender to him.

Thank you for everything Srila Prabhupada

Hare Krishna, All the great Vaishnava Acharyas spread the word of the Lord all across India but Srila Prabhupada Acharya spread it across the world. He did this at a ripe old age with so many health problems. With his life he showed to all of us the power of Bhakti Yoga that Krishna spoke about in the Bhagavad Gita and what it is to dedicate yourself to Krishna. ISKCON and Achyuta Prabhuji have changed my life and I am forever grateful to this great institution that Prabhupada founded… Hare Krishna

Dear Srila Prabhupada,
Dandavat pranam
My humble obeisances unto you.

I have been in contact with ISKCON Kadugodi for last eighteen months. Krishna has said in the Bhagvatgita, this world is ‘asasvatam’ and ‘duhkha-alayam’. The problems are coming in our life like waves in the ocean. I have understood for 1 unit of happiness I have to go through 1000 problems. Hence, it is impossible to survive on our own without the mercy of Krishna. This knowledge is thus realised through your books and association with your devotees.
I am extremely grateful to you for your mercy showered on me.

I would like to offer my heartfelt thanks to you on this auspicious day of your appearance for showing us the path of Krishna Consciousness.

It has been about 3 years now when I came in touch with Acyuta Prabhuji and then came to know about you and ISKCON and Istill have a very long way to go. By reading your books Srila Prabhupada, I’m trying to develop taste for Krishna and empower my spiritual life.

Thank you very much for writing so many books which are like a single ray of hope for us Kaliyugi people who do not know anything.

I beg unto you for your causeless mercy to give me strength and more power to my spiritual life. Please always keep me under your shelter and guide me to be come faithful devotee of Krishna and servant of your servants ?.

Thank you so much Srila Prabhupada.

Without the mercy of Sri Krishna we cannot do anything.I am extremely grateful to you for the great knowledge given to us through your books and your devotees.
Please bestow your blessings on me so I may remember Lord Krishna all my life.

Eternally grateful .

Dear Srila Prabhupad,

Kindly accept my humble obeisances to your lotus feet on the wonderful occasion of your vyas puja,

We have been so fortunate to have your shelter in this material world. Somehow I always felt that it is
your mercy that we are here & inspite of our struggles, you have been there like an umbrella sheltering
us from torrid rain of material sufferings. When I read Prabhupad Lilamrta , I was fascinated to see the
struggles you had to go thru but you were relentlessly following the instruction of your guru maharaj
with one pointed attention & achieved which no ordinary human being can never dream of.

Prabhupad, I always feel you are guiding us thru your books which are like torch in the dark room giving
us direction towards our goal. Thru you, I learnt that our sole purpose of our life is to serve Guru &
Gauranga. Me & my family are ever indebted to you. You have given us Iskcon which is home for all of
us. Thru Iskcon, you have emphasized the importance of purity for this movement. Your fourfold
practical mantra of "Purity is the force, your Books are the basis, Utility is the principle and Preaching is
the essence".

I have personally seen so many souls life have been saved because of you Srila Prabhupad. Each of us in
human form have really got the purpose of our life now.

Srila Prabhupad, You always wanted Krishna conscious movement to spread thru out the world in the
spirit of Lord Chaitanya.

Yare dekho tare kaho krishna upadesa & bharata-bhumite haila manusya-janma yara

I will try to take these instruction & definitely try to contribute in spreading Krishna consciousness.

Thank you Srila Prabhupad for always being there tolerating our misgivings & always being merciful.

Dear Srila Prabhupada
Please accept our respectable obeisances.

Oh Prabhupada, we don’t have any qualification to write this offerings.

Few years back our family was drowning in this material entanglement, we were spiritually blind in this world running behind our material achievements.

By Krishna’s mercy we came in contact with ISKCON and associated with devotees of Lord, and our life got changed.
We understood the purpose of our life by reading your Books, hearing your Lectures.

You have set an example by giving your life to this world to remind them “we need to go back to Godhead”.

Initially we were surprised how you have built so many temples world wide and how could you make so many devotees in western countries.

We believe that it would have happened because you are not a normal personality, you are divine personality who have come to this world to show us the correct path.

We have no qualification to ask you to shower mercy on us.

Kindly forgive our offences in ignorance.

On this Vyas Puja of yours, We pray at your lotus feet.

Please bless us and our family to grow in spiritual path and engage us in more and more services to serve the devotees Guru and Gauranga. Hold us firmly in this path.

I beg on your lotus feet, give me a strength, confident, and bless me for all goodness qualities.
I want to service god and I want become a sincere devotee of the lord RadhaKrishna..
I thank you for this movement we are very much blessed…

Hare Krishna,

Please accept my humble obeisance unto your lotus feet. In this Kaliyuga I’m not at all qualified and unfit and very very conditioned soul in this material world. But still you showed your mercy and ready to shower your blessings such a fallen and mandabuddi souls like me. I never ever felt I will come into Krishna consciousness but still I’m at bottom line itself. He guru and Prabhupad ji I’m pleading you and begging you please give some knowledge and get rid of all this material bondage completely. Kindly accept my humble obeisance of fallen soul. Thank you so much Prabhupada ki Jai

Yours servant
