Anurādhā Acyutapriyā devī dāsī (London - East - United Kingdom)

An epitome of determination and unflinching faith

 

Dear beloved Guru Maharaj,

 

              Please accept my respectful obeisances unto your lotus feet. All glories! All glories! to His Divine Grace Srila Prabhupada. All glories! to your Divine 71st auspicious appearance day.

Dear Spiritual father, we took aspiration on our first time visit to Sri Dham Mayapur and it was a blissful experience to get your association. I was into tears when I saw you for the first time because all these years, I had just heard about you and your glories. But I was fortunate enough again to get your association during Bhisma Panchaka in London, where we took shelter of your lotus feet.

I am short of words while attempting to write my first ever homage for you because I consider myself the most fallen soul. Kindly forgive me for any kind of offenses committed in my attempt.

O’ Srila Guru Maharaj, I have always felt emotionally connected to you but during the past few months the more I hear about you through the JSSS meetings, the more I get inspired seeing your unflinching faith and strong determination in fulfilling the instructions of your Spiritual Master. I am struck with awe to witness your ‘Never Give Up’ attitude, your affection towards all the fallen souls around the world, your mission to give Krishna to all of us and spreading the message of Sri Gauranga Mahaprabhu in every corner of the town under any circumstances.

Kindly bestow your mercy on the most fallen souls like us so that we could provide service at your lotus feet in a much better way.

            Ami ek tuccha jiva, jada jagate phanse aachi

             Koto janme kashta payenchi kintu sei maayar jaale phanse aachi

            Ei baare amara ek matra aasha, amara Guru Maharaj

            Āmāra ek matra aasha Guru Maharaj re samabedana Ēbaṁ kripaa

 

Translation: I am the most fallen soul, trapped in this material world

Many many births I have been suffering but still I am entrapped in Maya’s illusion

But this one time my only hope is my Spiritual Master.

My only hope is my Spiritual Master’s compassion and mercy.

 

Kindly bestow your blessings and mercy upon us so that we could try to become an instrument in spreading Krishna Consciousness by serving your instructions through preaching, serving the Vaishnavas, book distribution, and many more services.
