Śyāma Vrajapati dāsa (Dāmodara Deśa - Middle East)

oṁ ajñāna-timirāndhasya jñānāñjana-śalākayā
cakṣur unmīlitaṁ yena tasmai śrī-gurave namaḥ

nama oṁ viṣṇu-pādāya kṛṣṇa-preṣṭhāya bhū-tale
śrīmate jayapatākā-svāmin iti nāmine
namo ācāryapādāya nitāi-kṛpa-pradāyine
gaura-kathā dhāmadhāya nagara-grāma tāriṇe

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

mukhaṁ karoti vācālaṁ panguṁ laṅghayate girim 
yat kṛpā tam ahaṁ vande śrī-guruṁ dīna-tāraṇam


Dear Guru Maharaj,

Please accept my humble obeisance at your Lotus feet.

All glories to Srila Prabhupada.

All glories to Your Divine Grace and Gauranga on this auspicious day of your Vyasapuja.

Your compassion to the fallen souls, humility, tolerance and sincere service always inspires me the most. You are the embodiment of these qualities and a living example in demonstrating that we are the souls and not the bodies with your dedication in carrying out your guru’s instructions even in this bodily difficult conditions. Despite the condition, you are considerate of shortcomings and focus on uplifting the consciousness of fallen souls like me.

I have to admit that out of my ignorance without knowing your grace is always available for the fallen souls wherever you are I sometimes wished to be in direct association with yourself for guidance and support when my journey had few challenges with material conditionings trying to hold me back from the spiritual growth.  Please accept my apologies.

Your grace is always available in the form of your sweet and deep lectures, in the form of your disciples, and in the form of the systems that you have instituted in support of your disciples.  It’s up to me to take shelter of this grace to fight back the shortcomings in the path of spiritual growth. It’s up to me to see all the activities in this mission as part of this grace and engage in them with sincerity.

When I look back a year from now with your grace and your disciples support, managed to introduce few colleagues and others to this mission who are making steady progress in their spiritual path.  Have joined the Bhakti Shastri and Bhakti Vaibav classes being conducted by Mayapur Institute for the yatras in the Middle East.  Also taken advantages of opportunities whenever available in spreading Krsna Consciousness in the known circle.  I beg your mercy and empowerment to become a sincere instrument in spreading the message from Baghavat gita and Srimad Bagavatam to wider society.

Dear Gurumaharaj, please once again accept humble obeisance of this fallen soul at your lotus feet and bless me to support your mission.

Your humble servant,
Syama Vrajapati Dasa
