Hare Krishna Dear Guru Maharaj,
Please accept my respectful obeiscences unto your lotus feet,
All Glories to Srila Prabupad,
All Glories to Sir Guru and Sri Gauranga,
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
Though unworthy and incapable of glorifying your holiness, i make an humble attempt here on this auspicious occasion of your Vyasa Puja.
You are again and again proving your unflinching faith in your spiritual master and your commitment in fulfilling his instructions to you, despite of all odds. In the current situation of Covid and lockdown, you have touched so many hearts by taking the pain and difficulty in visiting their homes virtually and blessing them.
I am always bewildered by your reciprocation to your disciples. Many times when I see that you spend more time (in the virtual home visits) with many of your disciples, I felt that I am very insignificant and unworthy.
Time and again I thought that I am too insignificant to be known by you, even though I am your initiated disciple. However, you subtly indicate to me through the paramatma that you care about all your disciples.
Your mercy and compassion is like an ocean and anyone who receives even a drop of that mercy can cross over the material existence.
Since I am an insignificant jiva and incapable of doing anything auspicious, I am fully dependent on your mercy for my success in the spiritual journey. On this auspicious occasion, I pray for your mercy and empowerment so that I can engage more and more of my life in your service of distributing the holy name everywhere. Please give me the strength to cling to your lotus feet so that I am not allured by the attraction of maya. I pray that by your mercy, I may develop all the good qualities of an uttama vaishnava.
May I always remain faithful and dedicated in serving you.
your insignificant servant,
Ranachora Govinda Dasa
