Sudhāmṛta Jāhnavā devī dāsī (Khulna - Bangladesh)

nama oṁ viṣṇu-pādāya kṛṣṇa-preṣṭhāya bhū-tale
śrīmate jayapatāka svāmin iti nāmine
nama ācaryapādāya nitāi-kṛpā-pradāyine
gaura-kathā-dhāma-dāya nagara-grāma-tāriṇe

nama oṁ viṣṇu-pādāya kṛṣṇa-preṣṭhāya bhū-tale
śrīmate bhaktivedānta-svāminn iti nāmine
namas te sārasvate deve gaura-vāṇī-pracāriṇe
nirviśeṣa-śūnyavādi-pāścātya-deśa-tāriṇe

mūkaṁ karoti vācālaṁ paṅguṁ laṅghayate girim
yat-kṛpā tam ahaṁ vande śrī-guruṁ dīna-tāraṇam
paramānanda-mādhavam śrī caitanya īśvaram

Dear Guru Mahārāja,

Please accept my prostrated obeisance unto the dust of your divine lotus feet. All glories to Śrīla Prabhupāda! All glories to you Gurudeva! All glories to your 73rd Vyāsa-pūjā ceremony.

O the Compassionate Father,

It’s my pleasure to write something to you. I have no quality to glorify you. You are embedded with all the precious qualities of a pure devotee. I got initiated in 2016 since then I can feel how merciful you are that you give shelter to such a fallen soul like me.

O the Source of Inspiration,

I don’t do any service properly just try to escape from services and become disturbed by very small things. But when I think that having so many physical issues my Guru Mahārāja never stops preaching and never give up; then I get inspiration. You are our true inspiration.

O The Shelter of Unsheltered,

When I feel helpless and confused about what to do and what not to do, then reciting your pranam mantra I become fearless. Guru Mahārāja when I write an e-mail adding many of my problems then you solve problems and motivate me recalling the verse-,

“tṛṇād api sunīcena taror api sahiṣṇunā
amāninā mānadena kīrtanīyaḥ sadā hariḥ”

O The Ocean of Mercy,

Guru Mahārāja you are super caring for all of the living beings just not only your disciple. Sometimes I think “maybe Guru Mahārāja don’t know about me or never care for me”- just like a complaining little girl! But when I got to know you opened “JPS E-care”, “Jayapatākā Swami APP” and “Zoom virtual home visit” for connecting all of us, and regularly you prayed for us then I realize how merciful our Gurudeva is!

O Worthy Soldier of ISKCON,

From your updates, we can see how you are preaching worldwide. You never leaves a second to preach Kṛṣṇa conscious movement.

O The Dependable Protector,

mūkaṁ karoti vācālaṁ paṅguṁ laṅghayate girim
yat-kṛpā tam ahaṁ vande śrī-guruṁ dīna-tāraṇam

“I offer my respectful obeisance unto my spiritual master, the deliverer of the fallen souls. His mercy turns dumb into eloquent speakers and enables the lame to cross mountains.”

You are the most reliable and comfortable shelter for us. I wish to meet you someday and get your divine darśana again. You are so kind and compassionate for me that you gave me with so many wonderful devotees association. But I’m so contaminated that never able to realize your mercy upon me and often committed devotee offenses. Please forgive all of the mistakes which I had made earlier. I have no quality to glorify you I want to request you that please utilize me in your service. When I may able to fully addict to your divine kīrtana, esthetic dancing, and all of your inspiring lectures then my life will be fulfilled with spiritual joy. Gurudeva, please bless me that I can chant my 16 rounds properly, maintain 4 regulative principles, develop the desire to perform duties, services properly, and become loyal to you. I need your blessings all time.

“tava kṛpā kaṇā āmār sambal
tava kṛpā binā nāhi anya bal”
