My dear Śrīla Prabhupāda,

oṁ ajñāna-timirāndhasya jñānāñjana-śalākayā
cakṣur unmīlitaṁ yena tasmai śrī-gurave namaḥ
Please accept my humble obeisances in the dust of your lotuslike feet. All glories to Your Divine
Grace, who saved the whole world by spreading sanātana-dharma and the holy name, Hare Kṛṣṇa
Hare Kṛṣṇa, Kṛṣṇa Kṛṣṇa Hare Hare / Hare Rāma Hare Rāma, Rāma Rāma, Hare Hare, all over
the world.
Śrīla Prabhupāda,
nama oṁ viṣṇu-pādāya kṛṣṇa-preṣṭhāya bhū-tale
śrīmate bhaktivedānta-svāmin iti nāmine
namas te sārasvate deve gaura-vāṇī-pracāriṇe
nirviśeṣa-śūnyavādi-pāścātya-deśa-tāriṇe 
Your Divine Grace appeared on this planet to fulfill the prophecy of Lord Śrī Kṛṣṇa Caitanya
Mahāprabhu that His name will be chanted in every town and village on this earth planet. You are
empowered (a śaktyāveśa-avatāra) by the Supreme Lord, Śrī Kṛṣṇa, and you showed by example
worldwide how to make the lowest among the lowest creatures remember Lord Śrī Kṛṣṇa’s name
and chant in ecstasy. So Your Divine Grace established the yuga-dharma. You are the embodiment
of Lord Caitanya’s teachings.
I, your insignificant servant, beg on this day of your appearance that you please bless me with
a drop of your mercy so that I become a strict follower of your nectarlike teachings and become
instrumental in your mission to save humanity and the entire world from the effects of Kali-yuga.
Śrīla Prabhupāda, you are my everything. Please give me the shade of your lotus feet.
yasya prasādād bhagavat-prasādo
yasyāprasādān na gatiḥ kuto ’pi
dhyāyan stuvaṁs tasya yaśas tri-sandhyaṁ
vande guroḥ śrī-caraṇāravindam
“By the mercy of the spiritual master, one receives the benediction of Kṛṣṇa. Without the grace
of the spiritual master, one cannot make advancement. Therefore I should continually remember
and praise the spiritual master [you, Śrīla Prabhupāda]. At least three times a day, I should offer
my respectful obeisances unto the lotus feet of my spiritual master,” Śrīla Prabhupāda.
Please give me the strength to bear all troubles and fulfill your order. All glories to Śrīla
Prabhupāda. All glories to Śrī Śrī Gaura-Nitāi. All glories to Śrī Śrī Gaura Rādhā-Kṛṣṇa.
Your insignificant servant,
Nava Yogendra Swami
