Nama oṁ viṣṇu-pādāya kṛṣṇa-preṣṭhāya bhū-tale

My dear Gurumaharaj, please accept my humble obeisances at your lotus feet.
Gurumaharaj, since I am unworthy to glorify you, I beg forgiveness from the Lord for any apradh I may cause.
All glories to Srila Prabhupad.
All glories to your divine grace.
Listening to you rekindles faith brings joy to my heart. Hearing you, I get connected to the past times of Sri Krishna, with tearful eyes. Hearing about your pastimes creates an awe within me, I've realised how my life has been so futile and insignificant.
Dear Gurumaharaj, I'm unqualified, but I don't want to waste this life as well, everything in this plane of existence after which we run is futile and temporary. I'm afraid and scared by this truth of forgetfulness. I've been a lost soul since time immemorial, forgetful of my constitutional position. If I fail in this life, this forgetful soul will be lost again. Without your mercy I'm a small fish in the sea of misery, stuck for an eternity to suffer and forget. I pray to get some services by which I may get your mercy
