Gurudev!

kripa-bindu diya, koro’ ei dase,

trinapekha ati hina

Sakala sahane, bala diya koro’,

nija-mane spriha-hina

sakale sammana korite sakati,

deho’ natha! jathajatha

tabe to’ gaibo, hari-nama-sukhe,

apaRādhā ha ’be hata

kabe heno kripa, labhiya e jana,

kritartha hoibe, natha

sakti-buddhi-hina, ami ati dina,

koro’ more atma-satha jogyata-vicare, kichu nahi pai, tomara karuna—sara

karuna na hoile, kandiya kandiya, prana na rakhibo ara

 

Dear Gurudeva,

 

In the humility of my heart, I bow before you, imploring just a drop of your mercy. Lower than the grass underfoot, I seek your divine assistance. Grant me the strength to walk in your footsteps, free from desires, free from aspirations, as you are.

 

With all the respect that swells within me, I offer it unto you. Such respect is my source of energy to comprehend you truly. And in the joyous vibration of the holy name, may all my offenses dissolve into nothingness.

 

O my Lord and Master, when shall your boundless mercy rain upon this soul, so frail and bereft of wisdom? I yearn for the day I may accompany you, to bask in your sanctified presence.

 

As you gaze upon me, devoid of any virtue, know that your compassion is the very fabric of my being. Without your grace, tears are my only solace, for without it, my life cannot sustain!

 

Gurudev, 

In your boundless wisdom and compassion, I find solace and strength. As my grandmother whom replaced the place of a father, mother and best friend, recently departed a week ago. Here I am humbly seeking for your blessings for her soul's peaceful journey. May your grace envelop her and may your guidance illuminate her path in the realms beyond.

For myself, as your insignificant disciple, I pray to remain under your watchful eye, to be kept safe in your spiritual embrace, and to continue serving with unwavering devotion. Let my actions reflect the teachings you have imparted, and may I carry forth the values of love, compassion, and understanding that you champion.

 

In this moment of homage, I am reminded of the profound impact you have on my life. I am grateful for your protection and the opportunity to serve you, Gurumahārāja. With a heart full of gratitude, I honor all the opportunities I got to serve and also thanking you for accepting me as your disciple even though I am not qualified enough to become one!

 

Once again Happy 75th Vyasa Puja Gurumahārāja !

 

Your Insignificant Disciple,
