Dearest beloved Guru Mahārāja,
Please accept my respectful obeisances unto your divine lotus feet.
All glories to His Divine grace A.C Bhaktivedanta Swami Śrīla Prabhupāda
All glories to your divine grace, dearest spiritual father.
All glories to your 73rd Vyāsa-pūjā Ceremony!
Dear Śrīla Guru Mahārāja, firstly I would like to express my deepest heartfelt gratitude and my unlimited respectful obesiances unto you divine Lotus feet for your unlimited mercy, compassion and tolerance towards insignificant, unqualified, conditioned souls like me. I am eternally indebted to you for accepting me as your spiritual daughter and for always being there with me.
Dear spiritual father, though unqualified and unworthy, I consider myself so fortunate to have received initiation from your Divine Grace. All this was possible only because of your causeless mercy and unlimited compassion that you have for all of us.
I am like that youngest, immature child in the family who is so rejoiced to see her spiritual father everyday while I eagerly wait for your online Caitanya Leela class. In every single class your deep connection with Śrīla Prabhupāda and Śrī Caitanya Mahāprabhu is so prominently visible that I also pray to receive a minute drop of that mood and affection for you dear Guru Mahārāja, for Śrīla Prabhupāda and Śrī Caitanya Mahāprabhu. At the same time, I am eagerly awaiting for that day when I will be able to receive His Divine grace’s physical association and could be in some or other way engaged in some menial service for your pleasure.
Dear Spiritual father, I would also like to thank you for guiding us, giving us your blessings to serve Śrī Śrī Gaura Nitāi deities. It was a beautiful reciprocation by your Divine Grace especially while you gave the names for our deities. It made me reflect that you have been always there with us and will always be there with us in every single moment of our lives.
Dear Spiritual father, I have always seen you tirelessly taking up so many new initiatives and extending yourselves to so many families even during the time of lockdown. Your love and care is unlimited for everyone. Even while Your Divine Grace has so many physical difficulties especially with health but I have always seen your strong determination and unflinching faith on the Supreme Lord, that you continue to spread the transcendental knowledge to all the unconditioned souls under any circumstances and your mood is unparalleled.
It is by your mercy Śrīla Guru Mahārāja and the guidance of our mentors His Grace Supriyā Jāhnavā Mātājī/ His Grace Manohara Nitāicandra prabhu that I am able to render some preaching service by taking up Kids classes in the local area. I would like to seek your mercy and blessings so that we as a family are able to even take up adults preaching and inspire more new souls in Kṛṣṇa consciousness. Kindly bless us dear spiritual father that we could try to be tiny instruments and help you in fulfilling the instructions of Śrīla Prabhupāda and the previous Ācāryas.
Kindly forgive us for any kind of mistakes or offenses that we have been committing knowingly or unknowingly. I beg for your forgiveness at the dust of your Lotus feet and seek for your causeless mercy and blessings so that I could eternally serve you dear Spiritual Father.
Dear Spiritual father, please keep this youngest, immature and most insignificant spiritual daughter of yours always at the dust of your lotus feet. Requesting your mercy and blessings so that I could develop tolerance and patience in the most challenging and provoking situations of my life and overcome my anarthas.
We pray to the Supreme Lord for your very long and strong healthy life so that many conditioned souls like me could receive your mercy in their spiritual lives. Eagerly looking forward for your associations for many many years to come.
Your most insignificant spiritual daughter,
Anurādhā Acyutapriyā Devī Dāsī (Dīkṣā)
