Vyāsa-pūjā 2024

Devakī Rūpa devī dāsī (Florence - Villa Vrindavan - Italy)

nama oṁ viṣṇu-pādāya Kṛṣṇa-preṣṭhāya bhū-tale

śrīmate jayapatākā-svāmin iti nāmine

namo ācāryapādāya nitāi-kṛpa-pradāyine

gaura-kathā dhāma dāya nagara-grāma tāriṇe

Oh Great Spiritual Master Jayapatākā Swami! Please accept my most respectful obeisances at Your merciful Lotus Feet!

Thank you for your mercy to remain here to guide us. You are beyond any material concept. Gentle, merciful, patient, loving, humorous, always with the urgency to deliver every living entity.

Thank you for being such a lovely Father, even if someone is on the other side of the world, still he feels like you are just next to him.

I am so fortunate that in fear I can grab the rope of your mercy. When in anxiety this verse always comes to my mind and it is so sweet to my heart:

pratah śrīman-navadvipe dvi-netram dvi-bhujam gurum

varabhaya-pradam santam smaret tan-nama-purvakam

“In the morning, one should remember the spiritual master as being situated in Śrī Navadvīpa, having two eyes and two arms, as being peaceful, and as bestowing all benediction and fearlessness upon chanting his name.”

Dear Śrīla Gurudeva, I hope I can satisfy you by my service. Thank you for taking care of me by sanding on my path many wonderful devotees. You are a constant example on how to pass the various exams in life, your transcendental roar of “GAURĀṄGAAA!” is the sword that cut the miseries of our material life.

Your Grace is a wonder and a miracle to witness.

I offer forever my obeisances unto your lotus feet, and whatever my next destination will be I pray that Your Grace will be my guide and that I can serve you at best of my ability.

Your grateful daughter
