Gurudev, you are my hope and inspiration. Your Harikatha motivates me a lot and in there, I find the answers to my questions and my mind calms down. I am grateful to Krishna for sending a Gurudev like you into my life.

Gurudev you are my life, without you my life is worthless and empty, only you are my savior Patita Pavana.

Whatever situations, good or bad, only through your mercy can I try to overcome it. You say, never give up Gurudev and do not give up chanting Hare Krishna Mahamantra.

There are no words that can express what you have come to give us. Feelings don't stay on paper. Thank you so much for being who you are and for enlightening us. 

Gurudev is the innermost and closest thing that I have. He is the only one I turn to in my heart - there is no one else!!! Who will give me the best advice and comfort in the best way?!!

Gurudev is that ideal of a Person of which the soul dreams and knows!!! He tears away very carefully the concreted layers of the bitterest selfishness from my heart. I dare not even guess what layers of it I have... One thing I know – I have a long way to go to perfection.  

Gurudev, dear, You're my Sun, the greatest luck! I remember Your expression: "I'm closer than the air you breathe in!!!"

Gurudev,

​

I can't ever repay you for what you have given me and done. You are the embodiment of unlimited mercy and unconditional love.

Truly, you are my father, mother, best friend, guardian, protector and so much more. My life would have been empty without you. 

Your presence in our lives is the raft atop the stormy seas of this material existence.

We continue to carry you in our hearts and minds until we meet again.

My heart melts when I witness the unwavering determination of Srila Bhaktivedanta Vana Maharaja to preach the path of Pure Bhakti all over the world for almost 25 years now, despite the many challenges and obstacles, especially since 2020 as the world faces unprecedented circumstances, making travelling and preaching very difficult. 

Regardless of the travel restrictions during this pandemic, with great dedication and determination Srila Maharaja continuing the mission of his life and that is to share the message of Pure Love and Devotion as inaugurated by Sri Caitanya Mahaprabhu and the Acharyas in our disciplic succession line, revealing the jewels of their hearts, through his sweet and powerful Harikatha.
