My Dear Srila Prabhupรขda,
I bow to you. Jaya Prabhupada!
All glories to your matchless devotional service to Sri Sri Gaura-Nitรคi. As I progress on my spiritual path, which you mercifully revealed and bestowed on me, I am increasingly in awe of your superhuman spiritual qualities. The clarity, simplicity, profundity, and power of your teaching and preaching are unmatched. Your words reveal your pure devotion to Lord Krsna. Your words and conduct reveal that you are truly a great maha-bhagavata, an exalted pure devotee of Lord Krsna.
Once, in the privacy of your darsana room in Los Angeles, you revealed to me that never was there a time when you did not know Lord Krsna. Your words confirmed what I had always seen in you. Even at the beginning of my spiritual life, Lord Krsna showed me that you are a pure soul who is seeing God face to face.
My consolation is that my debt to you is eternal, and thus I will be serving you always. Thank you.
Your servant,
