Sarvapāvana Gaura Nitāi dāsa (Hyderabad - India)

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

Hare Kṛṣṇa Dear Guru Mahārāja,

Please accept my most respectful obeisances at Your Divine lotus feet.

All Glories to Your Auspicious Appearance Day.

mūkaṁ karoti vācālaṁ paṅguṁ laṅghayate girim
yat-kṛpā tam ahaṁ vande śrī-gurun dina tāriṇam
paramānanda-mādhavam śrī caitanya īśvaram

A disciple should be grateful if he gets even a single syllable from the lotus mouth of his guru, how much grateful should I be after receiving so many valuable teachings, instructions and wonderful pastimes of Lord Śrī Kṛṣṇa Caitanya Mahāprabhu. Again and again, I become convinced that you are always over seeing the well being of your disciples although present far away physically. Your lectures are always filled with nectarian pastimes of Lord Caitanya and His associates. I beg you to provide me the taste to hear such pastimes.

You tirelessly preach the message of Lord Caitanya and fulfill the instructions of Śrīla Prabhupāda. I am forever grateful that Your Holiness provides me the opportunity to assist in various services. While the anarthas are slowly wading by your mercy, I beg you to bestow me the humility to chant the names of Lord Hari. Your mercy is the sole reason for whatever devotional service performed by me.

Getting realization that my advancement in devotional service is simply the desire of pure devotees. My only duty is to be a recipient of the saffron dust particles that are emitted from the lotus lips of pure devotees. As Sudāmā’s house changed when Lord Kṛṣṇa ate the chipped rice offered to Him, similarly our house transforms when we visit the holy dhama of Lord Kṛṣṇa and Gaurāṅga.

I am serving in the local Bhakti center in Hyderabad, Gachibowli, trying to connect my family members to Kṛṣṇa consciousness. Please protect me from various material attachments and bring me closer to your lotus feet. Praying for your good health by chanting extra rounds and Dhanvantari mantra provided in your App.

Your insignificant Servant,

Sarvapāvana Gaura Nitāi dāsa, Hyderabad, India
