Guest guest Posted March 24, 1999 Report Share Posted March 24, 1999 [Text 173296 from CIS] Dear Holiness Jayapataka Swami, Please accept my respectful obeisances in the dust of your lotus feet. All glories to Your Divene Grace! All glories to Srila Prabhupada! All glories to Sri Sri Gaur Nitai! On this auspicious day of your appearance I am trying to express my gratitude to you for, having given up all material attachments, preaching with all vigor the mission of Srila Prabhupada and engaging everyone in this eternal activity. I wandwred for many years but peace I could not find. I was looking for love & fortune's trace, and finally, by Krsna's mersy, I became succeful. The trace of love and fortune is the footprints of the lotus feet of a pure devotee. He is travelling everywhere, spreading the transcendental knowledge. During one of your classes you left a deep impression in my heart by citing two slokas from the 18th Chapter of Bhagavad-gita. I have known about Krsna consciousness for a few years, but after my meeting with you my life has got some new meaning. I am gradually getting the true understanding of the highest goal of life. How many living entities are there in the universe who are still eiving their lives, not knowing about that highest goal? Dear Gurudev! Please do not leave this world untill all conditioned souls have not found you shelter. Give me a drop of your mercy, let me become a particle of dust in the footprints of your lotus feet so that I will have enough strength to help you fulfill your mission: to spread Krsna consciousness in every village and town. This is my first letter to you, so please forgive me any offences. Aspiring to serve you, Bhakta Alexander Kulikov (Chelyabinsk, Russia).
