Dear Gurudeva!
Please accept my humble obeisances to your Lotus Feet .
In this very important occasion of Your 71 Vyāsa-pūjā, I beg to all great souls to bless me with the ability to glorify You in the proper way, since I am not qualify to fully appreciate the humongous effort, dedication and sacrifice submission unto you spiritual master A.C Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupāda who had certainly endowed You with all favours bestowed upon a gentle disciple brūyuḥ snigdhasya śiṣyasya guravo guhyam apy uta (SB 1.1.8). And because of your unquestionable surrender to Śrīla Prabhupāda, You have please Him and been bless so You have done unimaginable things beyond any ordinary understanding.
You are the living proof of someone who is not in the bodily identification at all, after all the inconceivable amount of pain Your body have past through, You are still fighting for fulfilling your Spiritual Master’s instructions, You are still inspiring so many souls to take up the path of Bhakti and Your still giving up freely the most precious love for Lord Śrī Caitanya Mahāprabhu to the most fallen souls, for You is just enough if they show a slight interest about it or even if they come with other not so sincere intentions, You still give them mercy without discrimination because you genuinely see the potential of every living entity as an eternal servant of Kṛṣṇa, so You never doubt to give anyone the unlimited ocean of mercy of Gaurāṅga Mahāprabhu.
You are the embodiment of the mercy of Lord Nityānanda like thousands of moons cooling the desert like of the impersonal and dry speculative knowledge, as the moon also relates to the ocean and it’s tides, You are flooding us with innumerable waves of nectar in the form of the ever fresh glories and intimate pastimes of Lord Caitanya and His associates.
I would like to end this homage saying thank you Gurudeva first of all for your unimaginable sacrifice and endless love for your disciples.
Thank you for always been a guide in the decisions made by my family. If it wouldn’t be for them we may been somewhere else maybe not connected to Kṛṣṇa.
Thanks for your patience and tolerance towards me, since I’m not so pakka (perfect) devotee, forgive me fall-downs and offences. Thank you for your sacrifice, for your enthusiasm, inspiring and exemplary figure. May Śrī Śrī Prahlāda Narasiṁha always protect your health, your mission, your personal servants, may Śrī Gaurāṅga keep empowering You to deliver the Saṅkīrtana Mission all over the world.
Always hankering to become worthy of the dust of your Lotus feet,
Your insignificant servant
Yamarāja Nitāi dāsa.
