My Dear-most Spiritual Father, Jayapataka Swami Maharaj,
Please accept my humble obeisances.
All glories to Srila Prabhupada.
On this very auspicious day of Your Appearance, I bow down unto your divine lotus feet and seek your blessings.
We are very fortunate to get this opportunity to pay homage to You Gurumaharaj, but I feel very incompetent to do so, as I am not qualified enough to sing all Your glories. I require your mercy here to do this.
Firstly Gurudev, I want to thank you very much for giving me initiation on the 27 March 2021 and accepting me as Your disciple. I cannot explain the feeling that ran through my body, when You called out my spiritual name “Nityarupini Madhavi Devi Dasi”. It felt like an electric current had surcharged my bod y. It was the moment I long waited for. I would eternally be indebted to you Gurudev, for rescuing me from the ocean of nescience. By Your mercy, my life has changed completely. My purpose has become clear. By listening to your classes and by following Your instructions I can advance in Krsna consciousness.
Gurudev, your qualities are such an inspiration to my daily life. You shower your blessings to whomever you meet. Despite the difficulties you have encountered and are still encountering with your body, nothing stops you from performing your devotional service.
Please forgive me for any offences that I may have committed in ignorance. Help me to remain your humble servant.
Your most fallen servant
