Nama om vishno padaya krishna preshtaya bhutale
srimate jayapataka swami niti namine
namo acharya padaya nitaya kripa padaine
goura katha dhamo daya nagara grama tarine
My dear Gurudev,
Please accept my humble obeisances onto the dust of Your lotus feet. All glorious to Srila Prabhupad! All glorious to Your Divine Grace!
I am very unqualified to say anything about Your vast glorification, which You are constantly showing us by various examples, 24 hours a day in all of these years since 1968 when You first met Srila Prabhupad.
On this very special day of Your appearance, it is our duty to glorify our GuruMaharaj, and have gratitude on what You have done through all the physical impediments (such as kidney transplants, liver transplants, COVID positive, typhoid fever, etc.) to preach Sri Chaitanya Mahaprabhu's mission and follow Srila Prabhupad's instructions, the special 32 instructions and more!
It has become a very difficult year for some of us by being away from the dham and from Your close association. It is not easy for Sri Krishna to glorify His pure devotees. After all, by Your freewill, You are still with us to bless this earthly planet. You have all great qualities, which a pure devotee has, and Your eagerness of delivering all the conditioned souls has been increasing everyday! As Srila Prabhupad mentioned You're a sajan (family member) of Sri Chaitanya Mahaprabhu. In your physical condition, You're still day and night reaching out every parts and corners of the world, You're using Your precious time for giving class to the devotees by Zoom, same time FaceBook live and visiting their individual houses. You're also asking them to follow the JPS app constantly to be connected with You with any issues. You have really given full life to Srila Prabhupad and His mission and also to take care of all the devotees who are connected to Srila Prabhupad's mission.
Thank you so much GuruMaharaj for coming to Perth by Zoom and giving the opportunity to meet You and serve You whatever the way we can. We're totally indebted to You, please accept this humble offering from Nitai Prem Das and family.
Your insignificant servants,
Nitai Prem Das, Lileswari Gopika Devi Dasi, Jayaradha and Hemasundari
