Hare Kṛṣṇa dear Guru Mahārāja,
Please kindly accept my respectful obeisances unto the dust of your divine lotus feet.
All glories to Śrīla Prabhupāda!
All glories to Your Divine Grace!
Dear Guru Mahārāja,
All glories to your auspicious appearance day!
Thank you so much Gurudeva for unconditionally accepting me and giving shelter at your divine lotus feet.
You have repeatedly been showing through your personal example how nothing can stop one from giving Kṛṣṇa consciousness to others.
Your tireless efforts and determination are unimaginable for someone insignificant like me. You are truly the Victory flag of ISKCON dear Gurudeva. Please kindly bless me Gurudeva with at least a tiny fraction of that spirit and enthusiasm of yours so that I can serve to please you.
I have been doing Bhakti-vṛkṣa together with my family, under the valuable guidance of Aravinda Kṛṣṇa prabhu, Yamuneśvarī mātājī and Sādhvī Gaurāṅgī mātājī.It has been an amazing journey to be able to connect people to Kṛṣṇa and introduce them to Kṛṣṇa consciousness. You have given us the joy of Kṛṣṇa consciousness through this very wonderful program of Bhakti-vṛkṣa.
Please kindly show your mercy dear Gurudeva so that the Bhakti-vṛkṣa members can continue their journey of Kṛṣṇa consciousness with all sincerity and become devotees.
We pray to Lord Narasiṁhadeva for your good health dear Gurudeva and that you continue to shower your blessings to the entire world. Thank you for being there for us all the time Gurudeva, giving us classes and darśana every day on zoom. It is amazing to see how concerned you are for your disciples and everyone.
Thank you very much for your causeless mercy upon us dear Guru Mahārāja. Please kindly bless us that we can serve you as a family dear Gurudeva. Please bless me that I can receive initiation from you soon and serve your lotus feet sincerely forever. Please kindly bless me that I make my life meaningful by serving Hari, Guru and Vaiṣṇavas.
I beg you dear Guru Mahārāja to please kindly forgive me for the offences I may have committed knowingly or unknowingly at your lotus feet.
Happy Vyāsa-pūjā celebrations dear Guru Mahārāja.
