Our most beloved Śrīla Prabhupāda,
nama oṁ viṣṇu-pādāya kṛṣṇa-preṣṭhāya bhū-tale
śrīmate bhaktivedānta-svāminn iti nāmine
namas te sārasvate deve gaura-vāṇī-pracāriṇe
nirviśeṣa-śūnyavādi-pāścātya-deśa-tāriṇe
Please accept our respectful obeisances with the highest gratitude for creating the most powerful, loving family of the International Society for Krishna Consciousness. All glories to your divine mercy on humanity.
At Devasadan Mandir we are celebrating the Golden Jubilee celebration of the installation of Śrī Śrī Gaura-Nitāi you performed on your last visit to Detroit. By your divine stay at the Devasadan Mandir, it became a holy tīrtha. Now everyone who visits and enters your room gets the opportunity to receive the blessings of the dust from your lotus feet. It was here that you instructed His Grace Ambarīṣa Prabhu to build the glorious TOVP project, which he is doing with the highest dedication, just to please you, and which is due to open on November 1, 2027.
By your causeless mercy, we are able to continue serving the most merciful Śrī Śrī Rādhā-Kuñjabihārījī. O ever well-wisher, we beg you to give us the good fortune to continue to participate in the loving service of your lotus feet and our most merciful Deities Śrī Śrī Rādhā-Kuñjabihārījī until we are no longer in these bodies. Please hold our hands tight, because we have the tendency to run away from you.
Begging for forgiveness for our unlimited offenses to the Vaiṣṇavas,
Your humble servants at the Devasadan Mandir,
(written by Jagad-Guru Dāsa)
