        Dear Sridhar Swami,

        Please accept my respectful obeisances! All glories to Srila Prabhupada and to You!

        Somewhere in Srila Prabhupada's books I have once read how we can know if a person is Krsna Conscious. Srila Prabhupada said that if your association with some person increases your Krsna Consciousness than that's a sign that this person is himself Krsna Conscious. What I can say in that matters is that whenever I associate with you I get the desire and determination to become more serious in my spiritual life. When I am alone I have natural tendency to slowly fall down on the mechanical yoga instead of bhakti yoga but by your mercy only I can little bit raise from bodily and mental platforms when you give me your association.

        Although I theoretically know, what I should do in my life I somehow do not have the required strength, and than you personally enter into my life and changes do happen - so you have a power to change my life. It is mystical and I do not know how that happens. I already have the impression that I will never be able to make a progress and than you come and things start rolling, so I saw that I just have to stick with you. The most important thing for me is not to go away from you and I will surely be saved in due course of time. I am still not qualified to become your official disciple but I hope that slowly, gradually I will come to that platform. Although I am not addressing you formally as my spiritual master you are acting in that way and I am trying to train up for the role of a disciple under your kind help. Although I am not worthy of having you for a spiritual master, Krsna somehow has inspired you to accept my effort to come to the right track in the process of bhakti yoga.

        I am very thankful to Krsna for sending me His representative who cannot only be my Guru but also father and a friend in the same time. Krsna gave me full service in that matter. In the beginning of our association I didn't properly realized you as a Guru, it was little different. But, as the time goes by I am getting more and more realization about what Guru and disciples really are.

        You are giving me more trust than I deserve, I can only hope I will keep up with the standard you are trying to put me on.

        Your insignificant servant,
        Tomi
