Çré Vyäsa-püjä 2012<br />
we are completely defeated by your sweetness, and we beg for the mercy of being totally drowned in<br />
your unlimted sweetness for all eternity.<br />
Çréla Prabhupäda, you have engaged us here in Austin with the order “Make our Austin center a<br />
grand success.” Serving you here in Austin in the sweetest nectar. We still remember how your dear<br />
servant His Holiness Viñëujana Swami came to Austin in the spring of 1971 to inaugurate Lord Caitanya’s<br />
saìkértana movement in this strategic city. And we pray, Çréla Prabhupäda, that we may be successful<br />
in carrying out your order.<br />

Dear Çréla Prabhupäda,<br />
Please accept our humble obeisances. All glories to you!<br />
Çréla Prabhupäda, you never visited Bangkok, although you had plans to come here. But you did<br />
give some instruction regarding the preaching here, and you certainly knew something of the situation<br />
here. You said we should not be eager to install Deities, as there are already so many deities here. You<br />
requested us to teach the Thai people the philosophy of Kåñëa consciousness. In this regard, we are<br />
continuing to distribute your books, especially Bhagavad-gétä and Kåñëa book, which have both been<br />
translated into Thai. We also have daily Çrémad-Bhägavatam classes at our two centers here in Bangkok,<br />
and regularly have other classes for all the devotees and the public.<br />
Please bless us that we can continue this humble attempt to bring the Thai people to Kåñëa<br />
consciousness.<br />
We remain<br />
Your insignificant servants at the <strong>ISKCON</strong> centers in Bangkok, Thailand.<br />

Dear Çréla Prabhupäda,<br />
Çré gurubhyo namaù! Çré guru-gauräìga jayataù!<br />
On this, your Vyäsa-püjä day, I offer you säñöäìga daëòavat vandanäni.<br />
Your contribution to the propagation and revival of Vedic culture remains unparalleled, even thirtyfour<br />
years after your disappearance.<br />
The proof of the potency that you displayed is that the inspiration you gave your disciples lives on<br />
in so many ways.<br />
