Dear dear Guru Mahārāja,
nama oṁ viṣṇu-pādāya kṛṣṇa-preṣṭhāya bhū-tale
śrīmate jayapatākā-svāmin iti nāmine
namo ācāryapādāya nitāi-kṛpa-pradāyine
gaura-kathā dhāma dāya nagara-grāma tāriṇe
Please accept my humble obeisances.
All glories to you. All glories to Śrīla Prabhupada!
If not for your compassionate nature, I would not understand many spiritual qualities. Please shower your mercy upon me, Achyuta and Ānandamaya Gopinath dāsa so that we develop spiritual qualities in particular gratitude. I have understood gratitude can suppress any bad quality we have, and it is easy to grow spiritually eternally. Please bless us so we have this gratitude attitude towards you and guru parampara so that we serve you eternally.
Dear spiritual master, your lotus feet are resting place for us. It gives cooling shade in this material world of misery. If not for your merciful association, I would not have understood how Guru represents the transparent medium showing us the glimpse of love of Godhead. Please shower your mercy upon us so that your teaching manifest more and more on us every day eternally.
Oh Glorious dear father, if not for your amazing classes, I would not understand the glories of Mahaprabhu, Nityānanda prabhu, Advaita Gosai and wonderful devotees of the lord. Please shower your mercy on us so that me, Achyuta and Ānandamaya Gopinath Dāsa can sincerely, seriously chant with all concentration and follow our 4 rules and regulation so that it pleases you and Gaurāṅga eternally.
Dear master, I am sincerely praying to you and Gaurāṅga that let love of Godhead manifest in us in this lifetime. Your wonderful sweet lectures on Kolavecha Śrīdhar made me understand that it is not cheap thing to get Kṛṣṇa prema. It is the rarest of the rare. I am nowhere even near to controlling my senses. I cannot comprehend how many lifetimes it may require achieving this Kṛṣṇa prema as I have stone heart. I am sincerely begging to the Lord to give this rare treasure as I understood this is the only thing that makes a guru happy. Dear Lord Nityānanda, we are extremely unqualified. But please bless us with this rare treasure so that my spiritual master is happy. Once we receive this blessing please also bless us that no bad qualities enter our heart so that it is nice overflowing container of Nityānanda prabhu’s mercy.
I am sincerely praying to the Lord to see you coming back with full strength and energy so that we can dance with you on the kirtans.
All glories to you dear Guru Maharaj.
Your insignificant servant,
Śrīguru Bhakti Devī Dāsī (dīkṣā disciple)
