Hare Kṛṣṇa
My Dear Guru Mahārājā,
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
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
mūkaṁ karoti vācālaṁ paṅguṁ laṅghayate girim
yat-kṛpā tam ahaṁ vande śrī-guruṁ dīna-tāraṇam
"I offer my respectful obeisances unto my spiritual master, the deliverer of the fallen souls. His mercy turns the dumb into eloquent speakers and enables the lame to cross mountains."
dhyana moolam guru murti
puja moolam gurur padam,
mantra moolam gurur vakyam,
moksha moolam guru kripa
Translation: The Guru's form is the best to meditate upon; the Guru's feet are the best for worship; the Guru's word is the mantra; the Guru's Grace is the root of liberation.
Please accept my humble obeisance. All glories to Your Divine Grace.
The celebration of Vyasa-puja brings me spiritual bliss and realization when the disciples gather together to glorify you deep from their heart. This brings the disciples closer to you on this special occasion while sharing their love, sentiment and gratitude for you.
On your appearance day I would like to thank you for the love and care you have given to me. It is very difficult for me to glorify your qualities and personality.
In the early days, when your body was healthy, you were storehouse of energy and enthusiasm, but after your stoke, I am seeing your amazing spiritual personality. Generally, with the difficulties of the gross body the activities of the mind and intelligence deteriorate. However, you are totally defying that rule. You have become more active. This is a clear indication that you are not at all affected by the condition of your gross body. Rather transcending that platform and functioning in pure spiritual consciousness.
I haven’t been able to render much service to you. Now that you have given me a very big responsibility of taking care of Gaurāṅgadesh Yātrā, I am trying to do my best for the yātrā. I am was very much surprised to have chosen me as the Yātrāsevak, even though I am not qualified for such position. I am really grateful to you and His Grace Ramanada Gaura Prabhu and Her Grace Sachi Janani Mathaji for this. Request all your help and blessing to run this yātrā smoothly. Gurudeva when I was told to lead the Gaurāṅgadesh Yātrā, it really seemed to be a very big task and responsibility. I did not know from where I should start? and how to run this yātrā. It is only because of your mercy and determination which is helping me to overcome all the problems and face the difficulties positively and finding out solution in all situations.
There are so many wonderful disciples to serve you. Nevertheless, if ever you feel that there is something that I can do for you, please do not hesitate to let me know.
A normal person cannot do what you are doing in your present stage. I can really see your will power, determination and your commitments to Śrīla Prabhupāda by which nothing can prevent you from preaching the glories about the Supreme Lord Kṛṣṇa. In spite of your appointments, medical check up and meetings, you are giving online lectures every day without any interruption. Due to material work, many times I miss to hear your classes and I am really shameful for that being your disciple. But I am very happy that your voice is very clear during your lecture and kirtan. While I am writing your glories, all of a sudden, I felt like seeing my father, and decided to come to see you during your Bhima rata shanthi (70th birthday) in Māyāpur.
This day is very auspicious day not only for your disciples but also for all living entities in this earth. Scriptures says when Śrī Kṛṣṇa develops very much merciful and compassion mood at that time he sends His pure devotees to this material world to deliver conditioned souls. & Shastra says,"vaishnava para dukhe dukhi". You are good example of this verdict of shastra. We can see that you are so concerned for the fallen souls of this material world that you do not care for your physical condition.
I beg to Lord Śrī Narshimadeva for your good health and wellbeing.
Thank you, Gurudeva for your Causeless mercy on this Conditioned soul.
Your eternally fallen son,
Śrīranga Kṛṣṇa dāsa
