Vyāsa-pūjā 2021

Rādhā Gopīnātha Sevaka Dāsa (Sydney - Australia)

Guru Maharaj Ki Jai!

Srila Prabhupada ki Jai!

 

Dear Guru Maharaj,

 

Please accept my respectful obeisances.

 

I am very very fortunate to have you as my Guru in my life. On 27th of March 2021 (my first initiation day), you gave me a new life altogether to freshly start of the journey in spiritual life. That day is unforgettable and most memorable day in my life. It is utmost required that your mercy and the blessings to continue shower on me to lift and make me follow the devotional path firmly without any devitation towards negative energies and forces.

 

Please, please, please forgive me Guru Maharaj as I was repeatedly and unknowingly addressing you as "Maharaj" instead of "Guru Maharaj" right at the moment while you were giving me the first initiation. I beg you to kindly forgive my ignorance act. I will try not to repeat this mistake going forward.

 

On my first initiation day, I took vow in front of Sri Sri RadhaGopinath in strictly following 4 regulative principles, chant Hare Krishna Maha Mantra minimum of 16 rounds (reciting 108 times of Hare Krishna Maha mantra on beads in one round) daily and help you Guru Maharaj in all respects to fulfill the mission of Srila Prabhupada and developing Sri Mayapur Dham. I am your disciple, and you are my spiritual father now, you can easily see through me and I beg to please take control of me, make me pure, and utilise me in any way or shape or form that will satisfy you. I am very very very weak with full of faults as my mind rules over me all the time. Guru Maharaj, your glance up on me is the only way to get away from the miserly weakness accumulated since millions of births in me. I sincerely beg you dear Guru Maharaj to hold my hand and make me cross over the vicious cycle of birth and death and provide me endless opportunity to serve your lotus feet always forever.

 

On this Vyasa Puja day, I tried to offer my heartful glories to you Guru Maharaj, please accept them if it pleases you. Also, please forgive me for any mistakes I have done due to my ignorance.

 

01.

My heart was filled with material glitter,

without knowing that it is simply an accumulated litter.

The radiance of your glance made this material glitter shatter,

but through your love you covered me with spiritual filter.

 

02.

Guru Maharaj, since the day I am in contact with you,

never I felt that I ever lived without you.

With due respects I offer my respectful obeisance’s on to you,

as you always imbue me spiritually which fills my heart with Bhakti dew.

 

03.

I always used to think whether I am capable, is the sadhana doable,

is the spiritual goal achievable, can I get a moment where I am spiritually cherishable?

Guru Maharaj, you are a great example to show us practically as nothing is impossible,

it is clearly visible that irrespective of bodily conditions spiritual goal is very much achievable and possible.

 

 

04.

The most memorable day is the day of my first initiation,

the day when a new life begins with real preparation.

Guru Maharaj embraced me as HIS disciple,

and I will fulfill my vows and follow Guru Maharaj in principle.

 

I sincerely thank you Guru Maharaj for all your efforts on me and my family to put us in the path of Bhakti and make us drive to achieve our goal in this life.

 

Once again, Guru Maharaj, please accept my respectful obeisance’s.

 

Your Humble Servant
