All glories to you O Gurudeva on your auspicious appearance day...
All glories to your incomparable spiritual master..Śrīla Prabhupāda...
All glories to Śrī Śrī Nitāi-Gaurāṅga...and their Sankirtana Movement...
All glories to Śrī Śrī Rādhā and Kṛṣṇa for sending you here...
Please accept our humble obeisances at your merciful lotus feet..
Through your life, you have set yourself as an example and showed us how to serve Kṛṣṇa and His devotees. You taught us that we are not this body but the eternal souls.
Through your causeless mercy, you have guided me step by step to the way of devotional service and on this occasion I pray unto your lotus feet to kindly bless me with more and more opportunity to serve you and all the vaishnavas.
Please forgive me for any offenses done at your lotus feet or towards any Vaishnavas as our lives completely depends on your mercy.
On this auspicious occasion of your 70th appearance day, even though I am not qualified, I pray to Lordships Rādhā Madhav, Pancha tattva and Narshimadeva to bless you with good health to fulfill Prabhupāda’s mission and spread Kṛṣṇa consciousness to every town and village.

The lotus feet of spiritual master are the only way by which we can attain pure devotional service, we bow to your lotus feet so that please help us and guide us to render our services so as to obtain taste in chanting, Guru kripa and mercy of Rādhā Kṛṣṇa.
Please bless this insignificant servant of yours so that I can continue rendering service to you and other Vaishnavas and always be in devotees' association.
