Vyāsa-pūjā 2020
Hare Krishna Guru Maharaja!
Nama Om Vishnu padaya Krsna presthaya bhutale
Srimate Jayapataka swamin iti namine,
Nama Acharya padaya Nitai kripa pradayine
Gaura katha dhama daya nagara grama tarine
Please accept my respectful obeisance unto your lotus feet. All glories to Srila Prabhupada. All glories to you and your 71st Vyasa Puja.
Thank you for accepting me under your shelter. I have absolutely no qualification to glorify you, yet for my purification, I shall attempt to do so.
Guru Maharaja, you truly are an example of 'I am not this body but a spirit soul.' Your body and activities are beyond my understanding. Your dedication towards your spiritual master, Srila Prabhupada, unlimited preaching in all means is very inspiring. When I heard from His Grace Maha Varaha prabhuji last year on how you not only made up for the missed 900 rounds but chanted 500 extra rounds in a span of 3 months, I made up my mind to never ever give an excuse for not chanting.
Your lectures in both English and Bengali are very powerful. You never compromise on humour even in times of adversity. You carry the mood of Srila Prabhupada, the guru parampara which is non-different from the mood of Lord Chaitanya. I sincerely pray to the Lord to fulfil your desire and all your disciples' and well-wishers' desire to see you dance to Hari nama again, if He so wishes.
I beg at your lotus feet to forgive me for my offences that I have knowingly or unknowingly committed by words, deeds or actions. I pray to you for a single drop of mercy. Please bless this extremely fallen, unintelligent and useless soul. Please give me the intelligence serve you and to understand the true meaning of my existence and realise my constitutional position.
Your most useless and insignificant eternal servant,
Revatī Manohariṇī devī dasī
