All glories to HH Jayapataka Swami Guru Maharaj
All glories to Iskcon Founder Acharya HDG AC Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupada
All glories to Nityānanda Prabhu, who is an ocean of mercy
All glories to Śrī Caitanya Mahāprabhu, who is all-merciful!
Respected Guru Maharaj,
Please accept my respectful obeisances
Nama Om Vishnu padaya Krsna presthaya bhutale
Srimate Jayapataka swamin iti namine,
Nama Acharya padaya Nitai kripa pradayine
Gaura katha dhama daya nagara grama tarine”
On your 72nd Vyas puja, it is so blissful to meditate on the blessings of Brahma Madhava Gaudiya Sampradaya. I therefore offer my respectful obeisances to the disciplic succession who mercifully accepted to shelter the lost soul of this kali yuga, such a transcendental blessing is even very rare to attain in the 400,000-human existence and I am very much obliged to have you as my spiritual master guiding us in the path of Krsna Consciousness.
Bhagavad-gita 7.3 , the Supreme Personality of Godhead Lord Sri Krsna says:
manuṣyāṇāṁ sahasreṣu
kaścid yatati siddhaye
yatatām api siddhānāṁ
kaścin māṁ vetti tattvataḥ
Translation
(Out of many thousands among men, one may endeavor for perfection, and of those who have achieved perfection, hardly one knows Me in truth).
Words alone cannot express the gratitude of opportunities that our Founder Acharya HDG Abhay Caranavinda Bhaktivedanta Swami Prabhupada provided to the whole of world through his disciples and well-wishers. Continually Guru Maharaj you kept us in the nine-process of devotional service by your virtual prayers, lectures, Hari kirtan, deity worship, reading, vaisnava seva , dham seva ,BBT books distribution seva ,prasadam seva and all Krsna conscious activities to ease our path in the humble service of all our Guru Parampara.
Over the years, your exemplary glorification of the Panca Tattva has built solid spiritual foundation on my preaching practices in the day to day experience in the society where compassionate care is mostly needed. I beg your mercy to follow in the footsteps of our great acharyas in propagating the message of Sri Chaitanya Mahaprabhu in the form of Harinaam Sankirtan to whoever I met and whoever I will meet at all angle of my existence.
According to the teachings of the acharyas, Chaitanya Mahaprabhu cannot be approached or understood without taking shelter of Nityananda Prabhu, who is the original guru of all the universes. He serves as an intermediary between Lord Chaitanya and His devotees. Similarly, HDG Srila AC BhaktiVedanta Prabhupada has sent you as mediator to protect the vedic culture. Guru Maharaj, I thank you for your goodness, grace and kindness to everyone.
Guru Maharaj ,
The advice you share is the silver serenade that all devotees keep closely to the ear
Your compassion is the golden tree in which all devotees can climb for spiritual wealth
You are the sun whose light shines on all devotees upon the darkest hour.
I pray to Lord Nityananda to bestow you good health on the occasion of your Glorious Vyas Puja .
nityanandam aham naumi
sarvananda-karam param
hari-nama-pradam devam
avadhuta-shiromanim
"I bow down to the Supreme Lord Nityananda Prabhu, who is the awarder of the highest joy to all, the bestower of the holy name and the crest jewel of all paramahamsa mendicants."
Humbly in your service
