Om ajnana-timirandhasya jnananjana-shalakaya
chakshur unmilitam yena tasmai shri-gurave namaha.
Namo Om Vishnupadaya Krishna presthaya bhutale
Srimate Jayapataka Swamin iti namine
Namo Acharya padaya Nitai kripa pradayine
Gaura katha dhamadaaya nagar gram tarine
Namo Om Vishnupadaya Krishna presthaya bhutale
Srimate Bhaktivendanta Swamin iti namine
Namaste Saraswate Deve Gaura Vani pracharine
Nirvishesha shunyavadi paschatya desha tarine
Mukam karoti vachalam pangum langhayate girim
yat-kripa tam aham vande shri-gurum dina-taranam
Dear Guru Maharaj kindly accept my respectful obeisances at the dust of your lotus feet ! All glories to Srila Prabhupada! All glories to your auspicious appearance day!
I find myself totally unqualified to glorify your transcendental qualities. Kindly forgive my mistakes considering this as my first attempt at Vyasapuja offering !
Srila Prabhupada travelled around the world to preach Krishna Consciousness and at the same time prepared his disciples to continue his mission after his physical disappearance. At times I used to feel little disappointed thinking why Srila Prabhupada did not come to Assam. Why the people of Assam and North East India were bereft of the mercy of a pure devotee! But then I realised Srila Prabhupada let his disciples complete his unfinished work. And you , dear Guru Maharaj, so kindly taken us , the people of Assam and other states of North East India , under the shelter of your divine lotus feet ! It is by your mercy alone that the ignorance of the people of this part of India is slowly melting away and the light of Krishna Consciousness is dawning in our hearts! I bow down at your lotus feet millions of times out of gratitude for saving us ! Although you started your mission in Assam long time ago, but I am so fallen that I could take your shelter only recently. I pray at your lotus feet that with your mercy I may qualify myself soon to be accepted as your diksha disciple .
Srila Narottam Das thakur has said about Vaishnava that " Gangara parasha hoile paschaate paavana, Darshane pavitra karo ei tomara guna" ( One gets purified after touching the water of Ganga, but the power of a Vaishnava is that just by taking his darshan a person gets purified)
Dear Guru Maharaj, you have been very kindly purifying us with your Darshan everyday online , showering your mercy as well as distributing nectar of Gaura katha. We sometimes worry about your health and feel that you need to take more rest, But you have never let your physical discomfort come in the way of distributing your mercy! Srila Prabhupada said, previously you had been an associate of Nityanada Prabhu , whose mercy is unfathomable like an ocean, beyond imagination! We consider ourselves very fortunate to see glimpse of that mercy of Nityanada Prabhu through your merciful heart !
Dear Guru Maharaj the world needs your physical presence for a long time to uplift many more fallen souls like me. Kindly take care of your health for the sake of all those who need you! I pray at the lotus feet of Shri Nrisinghadev and Srila Prabhupada for bestowing you a long and healthy life !
"Sri Guru charane rati ei se uttama gati" ( The ultimate fulfilment of all desires can be achieved by being attached to the lotus feet of Guru) . Kindly bless me that I may be able to fix my mind at serving your lotus feet with a humble heart.
Srlia Jayapataka Swami Guru Maharaj ki Jai !!
Yours servant of the servant of the servant of your lotus feet
