Yesterday devotees around the world celebrated the glorious appearance anniversary of His Holiness Hridayananda das Goswami.

It was a wonderful opportunity to gather with friends and family, whose lives have been similarly inspired by Hridayananda das Goswami’s unique brilliance, spiritual wisdom, personal realization, wit, humor, generosity, and profound devotion.

In following tradition, this year we collected and compiled over 100 letters from Hridayananda das Goswami’s godfamily, disciples, and well-wishers. Offerings were received from almost 30 different countries.

After receiving the book, Hridayananda das Goswami wrote the following:

“Thank you for this beautiful book. I especially like that you included many pictures of the devotees. I am eternally grateful to all of you.”

We would like to thank our amazing team of volunteers for organizing this year’s submission process, namely Madhaviya devi dasi, Shanti Day, and Emily Dietzel. Also, we are extremely appreciative of Govinda Sundara DeCastro, who again volunteered to design this year’s Vyasa Puja e-book. Thank you all for your steady service.

Furthermore, a special thank you to this year’s contributors. Please forgive us if your offering was inadvertently misplaced. Every year we try hard to ensure that each offering is handled with care.

We now invite you to download this year’s Vyasa Puja e-book here. May we draw inspiration from these heartfelt offerings and grow together in our devotional lives.

Jaya Srila Prabhupada! Jaya Srila Acharyadeva & Happy Vyasa Puja!
