Dear Guru Mahārāja,

Please accept my humble obeisances. All glories to Śrīla Prabhupāda. All glories to you Guru Mahārāja.

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

On this auspicious occasion of your 75th appearance day, even though I am not qualified, I pray to Lordships Rādhā Mādhava, Pañca-tattva and Narasiṁhadeva to bless you with good health to fulfill Śrīla Prabhupāda’s mission and spread Kṛṣṇa consciousness to every town and village.

śrī-guru-caraṇa-padma, kevala-bhakti-sadma,

The lotus feet of spiritual master are the only way by which we can attain pure devotional service, I am bowing down at your lotus feet begging you to kindly help me and guide me to render services to their Lordships and His devotees so as to obtain taste in chanting, Guru Kripa and mercy of Rādhā-Kṛṣṇa.

Throughout your life, you have been teaching me how we are not this body, but a spirit soul and you showed me the true nature of a spirit soul. Your guidance has unveiled the essence of my existence: to serve with a love that knows no bounds, reflecting our eternal bond with Rādhā-Mādhava.

Last year, I moved to Italy to pursue my master’s degree. I have had the privilege of connecting with a small, vibrant congregation here. The devotees within this community hold you in the highest regard, ceaselessly extolling your virtues and how you have inspired them. Their admiration and respect for you are boundless, a testament to your remarkable influence and the indelible mark you’ve left on every vaiṣṇavas and vaishnavis throughout the world.

I humbly pray to you for your mercy aspiring to embody a fraction of the passion and dedication you show in your service to the Lord and His devotees. I feel very blessed and fortunate to be under your shelter. Please forgive me for any offenses done at your lotus feet or towards any Vaiṣṇavas as my life completely depends on your mercy.

Please bless this insignificant servant of yours so that I can continue rendering service to you and other Vaiṣṇavas and always be in devotees’ association.

Jayapatākā Swami Guru Mahārāja kī! Jaya!
