Dear Guru Mahārāja jī!
Hare Kṛṣṇa,
Please accept my humble obeisances unto your lotus feet.
All glories to Śrī Śrī Guru and Gaurāṅga!
All glories to Śrīla Prabhupāda!
All glories to you.
As I continue my spiritual journey with every passing day, I realized the utmost importance of the spiritual master in my life, how you are inspiring me and helping me to keep practicing the regulative principles of sādhana-bhakti. Indeed, you’re the miracle man in my life and I know that without your mercy, I cannot make any progress. Therefore, I pray:
Guru Mahārājaji!
kṛpā-bindu diyā, koro’ ei dāse,
tṛṇāpekhā ati hīna
sakala sahane, bala diyā karo’,
nija-māne spṛhā-hīna
Gurudeva, O spiritual master! give to this servant just one drop of mercy. I am lower than a blade of grass.
Give me all your help! Give me strength! Let me be as you are, without desires or aspirations.
I also pray that you please guide me to become a first-class surrendered disciple and represent you both in character and behavior at all times, places and circumstances, by taking your every instruction as my life and soul.
You, again and again, instruct all of us your disciples to become the pure devotee and to deliver the world. Please help me to conquer the enemies of the heart and the mind to situate myself in transcendence and in this way fulfill your desire.
Praying for your good health and bodily strength so that you can continue flooding the whole world with pure Kṛṣṇa bhakti.
Your insignificant servant,
Bhaktin Kanchan (aspiring disciple)
Uttarakhand (India)
